More from Hubbs on the Worley situation...

I'm sure from Butch's perspective there's some strategy involved in trying to make Missouri prepare for more than just one guy. Much like Missouri added Franklin to their depth chart.

I'm sure Jones handled it the way he did today in an effort of to try and help his team in their preparation this weekend.

Crappy pitching???

Wow tough crowd

We have given up untimely hits to the Sox, pretty much my intention with that comment.

Papi deserves a statue. Unbelievable post season hitter

Papi is an incredible clutch hitter. That being said I hope he finds a slump and soon.

Is this another example of Hubbs saying stuff without saying stuff?

Never seen a MLB player do what he did last night showing leadership like he did.

His teamates said they felt like 24 kindergardeners listening to their teacher.

Almost unheard of in baseball

He's hitting high ones, low ones, outside, inside, behind the catcher, from the dugout, even gettin hits on defense.

Yep

 

[StoVol]

I don't really know shat about baseball, but why is Lester still pitching in the bottom of the 8 th? Isn't that kinda risky?

One of the best clutch hitters ever and one of the best pure hitters in baseball period, IMO.

Definitely the heart and soul of the BoSox.

No it's not

Less than 100pitches

I hope so!

I don't think so. He went 7 innings his first start. Has pitched well against the Cards. The leash does get shorter the longer he goes though.

@AustinPriceless: Spoke to a Tennessee target tonight who told me he could see the light at the end of the recruiting tunnel. #Vols

Discuss.

I'm gonna change gears and guess Looney for bball maybe?

Not typically, no.

No chance he told a media person anything. He has been very tight lipped

 

[BruinVol]

Not typically, no.

Pulled him now.

I don't like it. Cg would have been my call

 

[Vols4us]

Since Butch is playing with house money this season, the way things have worked out could not have been scripted better to see what 3 different QB's could do against probably the toughest schedule in CFB this season. Who plays the #1 and #2 teams on the road with a first year HC that had to fix a D that was ranked 100+ last season after losing a top offense loaded with draft picks? Add in all of the other top rated teams like this weekend they play. Our luck. But in the big picture this could be a major blessing.

Uehara's splitter is filthy.

 

[StoVol]

I saw he was at 85 pitches to start inning. What number is the one where you go... We better think about taking him out...? Or are they measuring his velocity dropping any?

125 or so in the post season.

110 in regular season

He right handed and made one knuckle in then fade to the right at the end! I was like wth was that?

Yes, he's saying Worley's injury is worse than "day to day" like Butch said in today's presser. Worley's likely done for the season. Not confirmed yet though.
