5/4 Grissom needs a day off

[JohnnyTheBone]

Coop with a nifty play to nip Santana. That was smooth.

 

[Red(s)HawksFan]

Cooper bailed out Hamilton there. What the hell was he rushing for?

Hamilton didn’t have a cheat card in his pocket saying how slow Santana is?

 

[Bob Montgomerys Helmet Hat]

Cooper looks really steady on balls in the dirt. Watches the ball into the glove.

I'd surmise it's that he stinks.

 

[Red(s)HawksFan]

Hard to argue with that. #freezackshort?

 

[InsideTheParker]

I concur.

 

[Al Zarilla]

Remitly commercial rocks, or Spanish word for rocks.

 

[DennyDoyle'sBoil]

Oh, yeah. I know, but I felt like talking after missing the game last night.

I gotcha. I was just playing around too.

 

[DennyDoyle'sBoil]

I see what you did there.

 

[E5 Yaz]

Phrasing

 

[JohnnyTheBone]

The Walking Triple is aboard.

 

[JohnnyTheBone]

I see what you did there.

I thought it may have passed by unnoticed, so your post has put a hop in my step.

 

[JohnnyTheBone]

Santana makes a winning play.

 

[mauidano]

Wasn't all that info about Lopez?

I guess I'm not that smart.

 

[mauidano]

Hit 'em where they ain't.

 

[catomatic]

What right did he have to hit that pop up to Lil Raffy?

 

[Reggie's Racquet]

That bloop should have been caught or at least they should have caught the runner rounding first base.

 

[DennyDoyle'sBoil]

Weissert fighting the pitch clock.

 

[Al Zarilla]

Weissert fighting the pitch clock.

Biggest change in sports since the 24 second clock, time related anyway?

 

[Al Zarilla]

Come on, last Saturday you scored 17 runs.

 

[DennyDoyle'sBoil]

Yeah, I can’t think of another this significant. Three point line maybe.

 

[JohnnyTheBone]

That or the 3-pointer in basketball. The game has completely changed, and not necessarily for the better.

 

[DennyDoyle'sBoil]

Missed a meatball.

 

[Al Zarilla]

He had a notion and helt (sp) back, old Dizzy Dean as an announcer.

 

[DennyDoyle'sBoil]

Dom-inance.

(How’d I do JTB?)

Love that Diz talk ...

 

[InsideTheParker]

I'm glad he can catch Raffy's throws, b/c otherwise I am pretty bored by Cooper.

 

[JohnnyTheBone]

Haha, I almost posted similarly!

 

[Petagine in a Bottle]

Cam Booser was great in the Sopranos as Johnny Cakes

Soon, the Sox will be.

He’s like a RH version of Eric Hosmer

 

[Al Zarilla]

The other ones I remember most with Diz was it always the little second sacker and the big first sacker. He would have loved Pedroia.

damn

 

[JohnnyTheBone]

Dave O'Brien discussing aging sausage makes me uncomfortable.

 

[InsideTheParker]

It seems that Booser gives up at least one homer with each appearance. I'm probably wrong about that.

 

[Red(s)HawksFan]

That's only his second HR allowed. (7th appearance)

 

[Al Zarilla]

Kepler with the interplanetary home run.

 

[mauidano]

Baby Raffy is all or nothing and a lot of nothing.

 

[Al Zarilla]

Mothers don’t let your sons grow up to be catchers.

 

[DeadlySplitter]

Little Raffy's lack of quality in-zone contact (any contact lately) is a concern

You at least have to move the runner to third.

 

[JohnnyTheBone]

This ump is boiled ass.

 

[Reggie's Racquet]

Not even close to a strike.

 

[InsideTheParker]

Yes, Raffy, we are all disappointed. I wish I had a helmet to bounce, too.

 

[Al Zarilla]

Big Raffi, you left a mess at home plate.

"Hold my beer!" - Reese McGuire

 

[Rovin Romine]

This is also what I think. So I think Cora will give Smith and Cooper (but I’m not worried about Cooper) more or less daily PAs while Yoshida is IL’d. If Smith hasn’t shown anything by the time Yoshida either returns (or has surgery), it’s onto plan D at 1B/DH/LF: a Refsnyder/Kavadas platoon? Acquiring Tyler Wade from SD? Promoting/acquiring an infielder to play 3B and DHing Devers some?

I'd agree. If/when Yoshida is back, their bench would be:

McGuire (C lock)
Refsnyder (4th OF lock)
Short/Romy/Hamilton in the relief IF role.
X

You could carry a bat-first player there, but if Yoshida is DHing, how often would you get them in the lineup?

Smith is a LHH, so there's no obvious DH sub. He could start sometimes over Cooper, and come in to PH for him. Or you could burn the bench and have Smith PH for a MI, then plug Short in or something. But who would that be for? Rafaela? Grissom if he's not hitting?

Ultimately, if Smith hits, he may stick for a bit.

 

[Rovin Romine]

Big Raffi, you left a mess at home plate.

If the ump can be shamed into a makeup call or something, a look is probably enough.

You shouldn't trade that for not getting ejected for some petulant shit.

 

[mauidano]

Booser is everyman.

Players have been tossed for less.

Just wait until tomorrow and Angel Hernandez behind the plate.
