Vaz back. Surprised that he would start this game.
I know I am not in line for starting a game thread. Game had started and there was not one yet. Thought folks would be interested in this game given the return of Vaz and E-Rod. Hope I haven't broken anybody's rice bowl.

Devers not called up, asked about it Cora said we are going to play our best players. We're here to win games - Sean McAdam
I guess I am not surprised at Cora's sentiment. Thought they would have a hard time seeing Devers as a post season 3rd baseman. But boy...this team is REALLY Right Handed from the batter's box now.Originally Posted by OH FOY!
E-Rod is dealing.
Eddies been eating his wheaties.
He was dominate in his 2 Rehab starts.
You did not break protocol.
Sox lost their previous game so anyone can start the game thread for this game.
"Hating the Yankees like it's a religion since 94'" RIP Mike.
"It's also a simple and indisputable fact that WAR isn't the be-all end-all in valuations, especially in real life. Wanna know why? Because an ace in run-prevention for 120 innings means more often than not, a sub-standard pitcher covering for the rest of the IP that pitcher fails to provide. You can't see value in a vacuum when a player does not provide full-time production."
Kind of shocked in a good way that E-Rod has started with 4 Ks.

Lyons is right he is pitching at a quicker pace.
Devers just hit a 2 run HR for the Pawsox.
Too bad hit it hard too.
Eduardo Rodriguez and Carlos Rodon provide interesting comps as 25-year-old lefthanders with three more arbitration seasons after earning $2.4 million and $2.3 million, respectively, this year as Super Twos.
This year the 6-foot-2, 220-pound Rodriguez has posted 1.9 fWAR in 19 starts. Entering today's game ZiPS, Steamer and FanGraphs Depth Charts project Rodriguez with rest-of-season WAR of 0.4, 0.3 and 0.3, respectively, in four starts.
This year the 6-foot-3, 235-pound Rodon has posted 1.2 fWAR in 14 starts. Entering today's game ZiPS, Steamer and FanGraphs Depth Charts project Rodon with rest-of-season WAR of 0.3, 0.3 and 0.3, respectively, in four starts.

Appears that gone is the E-Rod that works 1-2 counts to 3-2 counts and ultimately a walk.
