Beat the Cubs today Avril 28

[shawnrbu]

Could this be Dalbec’s Shea Hillenbrand moment?

 

[shawnrbu]

Valdez is going to dip below .100 if he's not careful

Below The Dalbec Line?

 

[Ale Xander]

Ugggh

 

[brandonchristensen]

BoKKKy Dalbec

 

[mikeford]

This man should retire immediately

 

[Van Everyman]

This guys stuff is nuts

 

[staz]

Just nasty.

 

[DadOfFenway]

oh man... we all wanted it to work Bobby.

 

[CarolinaBeerGuy]

Be gone, Bobby

 

[bosockboy]

Carved up like the Thanksgiving turkey.

 

[Petagine in a Bottle]

Can’t spell Bobby F Dalbec without DFA

 

[Moviegoer]

Has Bobby ditched the glasses all night? I just noticed.

 

[mauidano]

I feel like the game is interrupting Ravech’s podcast.

Exactly.

 

[DennyDoyle'sBoil]

Swing or don’t swing — wouldn’t have mattered on that pitch.

 

[shawnrbu]

Is Kenley pitching the 9th?

 

[Van Everyman]

Cedanne seeing the ball well.

 

[patinorange]

Both of those guys should have been bunting and praying for a misplay.

 

[YTF]

Gang, we’re going to win this game.


Is your view that Jackson Holiday is a AAAA player? After like two weeks of at bats?

What the fuck are you talking about? He had one awful game and has been great otherwise. Tonight he allowed two absolute fart hits before a bad pitch, then easily got the next three hitters.

Game threaders gonna game thread.

 

[nvalvo]

Nice at bat from Rafaela.

 

[Al Zarilla]

Is Kenley pitching the 9th?

That would be the usual protocol

 

[LesterFan]

Cleared all the free outs. Gotta hold them here.

 

[ObstructedView]

I propose a Bobby D automatic K rule. It would be like the intentional walk, but for a strikeout instead. Cora could hold up three fingers and Bobby could stay in the dugout. Just get it over with and help with pace of play.

 

[TrotNixonRing]

Cleared all the free outs. Gotta hold them here.

*nods*

 

[Petagine in a Bottle]

Sure. But Dalbec had a .930 OPS in AAA and a .220 OPS in MLB. The difference can’t be *that* big.

He can’t hit hard throwing righties, imagine he sees a lot more of that in the majors than in the minors?

 

[absintheofmalaise]

Dalbec vs a hard throwing righty MLB pitcher isn’t fair

 

[Dewey's 'stache]

Robots

 

[nvalvo]

He can’t hit hard throwing righties, imagine he sees a lot more of that in the majors than in the minors?

They have big fastballs in AAA, too.

 

[shawnrbu]

Cone to Mervis: Ever heard of Pervis Ellison?

 

[absintheofmalaise]

 

[shawnrbu]

Who pitches the 10th?

 

[pokey_reese]

Welp, at least we got one good season out of Martin

 

[DadOfFenway]

Who pitches the 10th?

won't need... walkoff is coming

 

[TrotNixonRing]

Who pitches the 10th?

no goddamn body

 

[DeJesus Built My Hotrod]

Robotics

 

[JOBU]

This ump is fucking kenley

 

[budcrew08]

Tons of guys reach AAA and never make it to the bigs. Dalbec has made it at least.

 

[absintheofmalaise]

Who pitches the 10th?

Joely.

 

[twibnotes]

Greg Maddux was the best fielding pitcher I ever saw. He finished square-facing home plate with an oversized glove. He didn't miss much.

Mike Mussina was really good

 

[Ale Xander]

Who pitches the 10th?

Pablo Reyes

 

[ObstructedView]

Welp, at least we got one good season out of Martin

Middle relief is lightning in a bottle.

 

[budcrew08]

We have the right guys coming up for a walkoff

 

[DeJesus Built My Hotrod]

This ump is fucking kenley

Kenley is dotting the zone up. Eduardo Perez was just gassing up Vanover too.

 

[Al Zarilla]

Nice Kenley. Now win it

 

[DadOfFenway]

top of order = a run. let's go boys... feel O'Neill becoming a Red Sox legend right now

 

[JOBU]

Did the light guy think that was the final out of the game?

 

[Petagine in a Bottle]

Jansen looks great at least!

 

[Moviegoer]

Who pitches the 10th?

Bobby. He's breaking out a knuckler.

 

[aksoxfan]

Ump has been ok, but definitely wrong on several calls.

 

[staz]

O'Neill's going to hit one into the Charles.

 

[E5 Yaz]

Devers walkoff
