Can’t believe these hayseeds can’t immediately tell the difference between a deep fly ball and a homer.

I can’t wait for tomorrow’s report on the many almost home runs you have to see in person to appreciate.

When I think of great modern day defensive shortstops, my mind immediately goes to Shawon Dunston.

Valdez has nothing. Sox need to score a ton this inning.

What’s the point of the check swing cam positioned behind the batter? What exactly is that supposed to show?

Not a real big fan of his. This team needs a good defensive catcher. They should have enough offense. He can take a seat for the rest of the series as far as I am concerned. Be ready to pinch hit.

The problem is that the back-up is Collins, who might be even worse defensively.

agreed on pointless. The definition doesnt help much either. By the wording, any attempt at the ball, full swing or not is technically a swing and strike. Id be ok with it being taken away from home plate umpire and all need to be appealed to base umpires, if we're using the plate as the decider

Grandal just dropped an 85 mph pitch that hit him in the glove.

The defensive positioning has been masterful. That's why you hire LaRussa. To make sure everyone is positioned to where the ball isn't being hit.

So you think LaRussa is positioning those players by gut or what the scouting report says ?

anything defensive positioning is scouting. The players literally have an index card for that
