Re: Wednesday's Game Thread: Indians at Red Sox:
WOW! Crawford just looks awful at the plate. Against Lefties??? Absolutely terrible!!! His biggest problem at the plate against lefties??? scared of the ball! His body is always falling back away from the plate. Is he ever capable of earning 20M / year??? NOT on your life!!! I'd settle for 5M / yr. I still like the kid! I'm pulling for him!!!! BUT..... He needs to work with A-Gon on his approach at the plate! This is getting ridiculous!

The Crawford signing was genious.....he will only get better and better through the length of his contract. He was worth every penny.

Sure wish Ortiz could have bunted there. Guy on second, no outs, most teams score that run.

Never been a fan of pinch-running for one of our bigger bats in that situation.

Even if Big Papi bunted, you do not score the run on 2 strikeouts!

Carl Crawford, the automatic, automatic out.
Useless, as well as embarrasing.
Why does this guy stink so terribly?

Agreed, but you create distraction for the pitcher. Maybe a sac anything, or even a squeeze bunt.

Paps figured out how to pitch in a non save... 2 nites in a row... would b nice if those 2 very good performances couldve transferred into saves!

You'd think the Sox could hit these pitchers. Haven't they seen them every game so far?

There's no excuse for Crawford's $15,000,000 performance this season.
I'd say the Sox should hire a hitting coach to help him, but they already did. It's August and the guy still cannot help. He needs to join JD on the indefinite DL.
