Romine probably wont be back bring, Higgy, Kratz, Breaux and that 1st round kid to spring training and send a message to Sanchez.


Breaux and Siegler haven't played above high-A and are nowhere near ready. Kratz is nearing 40. Them being at Spring Training isn't gonna mean anything, especially with none of them on the 40-man. Only thing that will light a fire under another player's ass is actual competition.

That was awful base running by Judge. Damn near turned 2nd base on that fly ball.

If he froze halfway or even a little passed halfway and the ball dropped, he would’ve been able to still go to 2nd safely.

If he missed the catch though and depending on Springer's positioning, Judge has a chance at scoring, at the very least gets to 3rd.

I thought about that, but it’s more understandable to be aggressive if we were down by only 1 run since he would’ve been the tying run. Not a fan of selling out there.

The smart thing would be to pinch hit for Edwin.

That won’t happen though.

He doesn't strikeout, but he gets a double play.

Encarnacion is the worst hitter I’ve ever seen.

You know, I usually don’t criticize Boone, but Girardi would’ve pinch hit for his ass multiple times by now. Even a flat out benching. Boone stuck with him for no reason and kept him in the heart of the order.

I f*cking hate the Astros so much.

Had it been any team but the Sox, Astros, Rays I would've been fine losing to them.
