If Miley was having the same strike zone as Sale, the game won't be tied by now.

If Miley was having the same strike zone as Sale, the game won't be tied by now. According to the fangraphs chart, the ump's missed about 10 calls. 8 have favored the Astros, 2 have favored the Red Sox.

The two problems that need to be addressed by the all-star break are 1. You can't have a bullpen game every fifth day for an extended period of time like this. 2. Something has to give with the bottom of the order, this lineup is built to be long and to keep the line moving. You can't have an automatic out in there every day and the use of Nunez exacerbates the problem. It seems every on base threat has Nunez or JBJ or Pearce coming up in key spots.
Both can be fixed by guys getting healthy

Walden has been the Sox MVP this year. Perfect result.

The umpires have been really bad today. Strikezone has been bad and now this play that's a out that was called safe.

Chavis' mini slump is officially over. He smoked the ball twice today.

That ball was scorched from Xander. I wonder if they leave in Walden for the 8th now.

Nope, Barnes in. Heart of the order up.

Workman warming up.

Great inning from Barnes. Need more runs.
I feel like Workman's stuff may be susceptible to Houston's approach and talent. Hope I am very wrong,

Devers' average has dropped 30 points the last half week.

Workman has better velocity than I seem to remember

Post by pedrofanforever45 on May 19, 2019 15:58:03 GMT -5
Workman's velocity the past 2 weeks has been pre Tommy John form. 94-95 mph.

Walden with a win again. Great job to salvage one of the three games. Really needed that one - pick up a half game on first.

REALLY happy to get one here as to lose a Sale game is like taking a double dip. Hou, ny still look like better teams but will they in two months, who knows?
