Burger is at a pace right now to be an all-star caliber player for the long run. He really is a good talent at bat and has excellent plate coverage and power to all fields. The double with the bags loaded was a huge hit and on a tough pitch with two strikes. Not many average hitters even touch that pitch let alone hit it to the wall in right center field.


Big fan of Burger, but the same issue appears to be reforming with a glut of 1B/DH types. Perhaps the offensive potential is so great that it doesn't matter and they haven't been able to stay healthy so maybe a moot point....but if Burger is not an everyday 3B, Jimenez/Sheets are not regular OF's and Vaughn is a questionable 1B, the defense is going to struggle again.

Scholtens pitched well albeit against a toothless Cleveland offense. The offense couldn't do anything against a guy they should have crushed.

But a playoff team wins that one.

Andrew Vaughn looks like the person the protagonist in a horror movie sees when his car breaks down on a country road and he goes to the nearest farm to ask for help

Beady eyes. Going bald. Decent wife. Probably will have a long career and make bank. Not a serial killer, in my opinion. If it turns out he's friends with Garth Brooks, then I'll change my mind.

Oddly enough, he’s always reminded me of one of those smarmy WASPs who wear loafers year round and go bald by 20. He spends most his early adulthood getting hammered on golf vacations, gets married, has a couple kids, joins a country club and then spends his children’s youth getting hammered going on golf vacations with his friends.

His uncle was killed by Sonoma County sheriff's deputy who used a Taser gun on him three times in 2008.

Quote:
Vaughn's brother, Toby Vaughn of Santa Rosa, on Sunday briefly disputed the Sheriff's Department's account, but refused further comment.

Sheriff's officials said Saturday's confrontation with Vaughn was the department's second in two days.

Deputies were called to the same house at 4:30 a.m. Friday because of a disturbance, Spallino said, but because no crime had occurred, deputies took Vaughn to another location to stay with friends, Spallino said.

Vaughn then walked to a pay phone and called 911 several times and hung up, according to the Sheriff's Department. Deputies returned to the spot, and Vaughn said he would keep making calls unless they took him into custody, Spallino said.

Deputies eventually arrested him on suspicion of making false emergency calls, and he was released from Sonoma County Jail about 1:30 p.m. Friday.

Spallino said Vaughn has a 15-page criminal record that includes numerous arrests involving drug possession and drug use, thefts and a state prison sentence for a burglary conviction.

Vaughn's mother Sunday declined to talk about her son or his death.

Her husband, Ronald Vaughn, suffered numerous abrasions and bruises in Saturday's assault, but he did not require immediate medical attention, officials said.

A neighbor said Nathan Vaughn had recently come back into his parents' lives.

"They were at their wits' end with him," said neighbor Katie Robinson. "For a long time, they didn't allow him in the house, but he just started doing yardwork for them again. His parents did the best they could."

I don’t think Parkins would be welcome at the type of club my hypothetical guy belongs to.

Kopech better have his good stuff again because I don't think he is going to get a ton of help from this defense today.

Kopech is probably more likely to revert back to his usual - 5 IP, 3 ER, 5 BB, 4 Hits

Nice inning, fellas!

Bases loaded, nobody out...5 run scored 8)

I wonder when the last time the Sox accomplished this without a home run in the inning?

Kopech becoming an ace would definitely help things out.

Another series win, that's three in a row. Five of seven series won in May.

Now go take (at least) 3 of 4 from the Tigers.
