July 29 Giants @Oracle

[RCheco56]

I'd like to see Duran try laying a bunt down the 3rd base line in that spot. It couldn't be worse than taking 3 in a row

* Lurker Alert *

Leadpipe Flores

 

[Salem's Lot]

Wait, are the Sox actually thinking about dealing Paxton? What the heck are these guys talking about.

I severely doubt it. It’s silly season in the baseball media.

You're safe, @absintheofmalaise is taking a couple of days off

 

[chrisfont9]

Does he ever bunt? I’m not remembering much.

 

[Mystic Merlin]

Holding the hot dog wrapper in the glove is a choice

 

[JohnnyTheBone]

Let's go, Mape. Get it together!

 

[DeadlySplitter]

Seriously? Down 1-0 after 2 1/2 innings and already fatalistic?

Only Casas is hitting out here and Paxton looks rough today. Feels like a long shot.

There are longtime posters who have crazier ideas on the regular.


On another note, I have no use for mirrors.

 

[DeJesus Built My Hotrod]

This isn't a maple. Its like a fern,

 

[Papo The Snow Tiger]

In the good news department: I refuse to watch the MFY on Fox while the Sox are playing at the same time, but my baseball loving wife just informed me that the MLB Network has a four-quadrant thing going on and the Sox are on in the upper left corner. I married the right woman!!!

 

[JohnnyTheBone]

James J. Jimmy "Big Jimmy" Paxton is straight-up mowing pricks DOWN!

 

[derekson]

Did we get got by the news of Descalfini being the bulk guy instead of Manaea?

 

[Papo The Snow Tiger]

Sorry, double post.

 

[InsideTheParker]

When did Manaea no-hit the Sox? That wasn't fun.

 

[Moviegoer]

Getting shutdown by a bullpen. Fabulous

 

[InsideTheParker]

Time to pitch-hit Reffy for the entire lineup!

 

[heavyde050]

When did Manaea no-hit the Sox? That wasn't fun.

He no hit the Red Sox in early 2018.

 

[twibnotes]

Does he ever bunt? I’m not remembering much.

given his speed, duran should absolutely work on his bunt game - huge weapon against tough lefties and to get out of cold spells. Not to mention you bring in the corner guys with the threat

 

[SemperFidelisSox]

This offense can really be streaky.

 

[InsideTheParker]

He no hit the Red Sox in early 2018.

Oh, that was an ok year, all in all.

 

[radsoxfan]

Whoever is in charge of the Fox Broadcast camerawork needs to be fired.

Every time there is contact to the left side of the infield I just stare at Paxton and wonder what happened.

 

[Mystic Merlin]

Nice play Duvall!

 

[heavyde050]

Oh, that was an ok year, all in all.

Yup, not bad at all.

 

[twibnotes]

Trading Paxton is waving the white flag. I am so sick of hearing about the guys that might come back. Injured guys are never guaranteed to come back.

…or to be as good when they do come back

 

[Doc Zero]

Whoever is in charge of the Fox Broadcast camerawork needs to be fired.

Prom night

 

[radsoxfan]

Duvall is slow out there....

 

[absintheofmalaise]

Pretty much every other CF has that.

 

[Mystic Merlin]

Duvall created a wonderful chain reaction. As far as I’m concerned letting that ball fall in is effectively an error.

 

[radsoxfan]

Pretty much every other CF has that.

Yeah that was rough to watch

 

[DeJesus Built My Hotrod]

Verdugo just saved a run there. Luciano is fast AF btw

 

[JohnnyTheBone]

You were lucky, Luciano.

 

[shawnrbu]

Verdugo saved a run.

 

[dhappy42]

Verdugo saved a run there.

 

[heavyde050]

Great snag by Casas.

 

[derekson]

You were lucky, Luciano.

I chuckled but I hated doing it.

 

[E5 Yaz]

Great snag by Casas.

Right at him ... which, I admit, hasn't always been easy for him

 

[Moviegoer]

Second time they got super lucky on bringing the infield in.

 

[patinorange]

He’s getting smoked. Lucky so far.

 

[Mystic Merlin]

Walk the 9 hitter on five pitches, good idea.

 

[derekson]

Second time they got super lucky on bringing the infield in.

Better to be lucky than good.

 

[DeadlySplitter]

Nice walk to the 9 hitter.

 

[DeJesus Built My Hotrod]

Junior Valentine is not very funny

 

[derekson]

THIS UMP IS ASS

 

[staz]

If you're out of the region for it being the local FOX game, you can watch on MLB.tv, if anyone didn't know this.

Nope. Berkshire County, Mass. is STILL in the Bermuda Triangle: MLB.tv blackout because we're in Mass. (and should be watching local Fox affiliate), yet FCC says we're in the Albany, NY media market and have access to only the Albany Fox affiliate (MFY game). Happens all the time with NFL.

 

[RCheco56]

You're safe, @absintheofmalaise is taking a couple of days off

Appreciate that.

This ump has money on San Fran

 

[dhappy42]

Ump is ass.

 

[DeJesus Built My Hotrod]

I felt Cora there

 

[DeJesus Built My Hotrod]

What a Giant squander!

 

[JohnnyTheBone]

BIG JIMMY WRIGGLES OUT OF IT!
