To me at least regular season, Cora has done a terrific job with this team. Once you realize that his tactics are dependent on KNOWING most of the teams we face can't pitch AT ALL, what he does in-game makes a good deal of sense.

 

I really am interested to see how he handles post season play. But I really can't find fault with how he handles in-game strategy, how the team fielding and base running has improved and how well the team has handled injury.

 

Still some screwy base running but nothing like what it was under Farrell.

Got 2 at the Phillies first (Tueday and Wednesday). It was a tough pair with them at Fenway a couple weeks ago and its going to be a tough pair in Phiily.

 

Correct, I was looking to far ahead, overlooking the no DH interleague games.

Tampa Bay comes around for 6 of the next 10 games (sandwiched around the 4 Indian games) . TB at 60-57 would be in contention in any one of the 3 NL divisions or the AL Central. However, they are currently 23 behind the Red Sox in the AL East. Tough year to be a Ray.

 

I don’t pity them too much, 3 games over .500 in August isn’t exactly something to crow about. Reminds me of when the Padres won the west at 82-80. I think that was 2005. I’d be embarrassed as a fan if my team was that mediocre and made the postseason just because everyone in my division was a little more terrible than me

Thought they said last night Sale was on a 60-70 pitch count today, which would be right where he's at.

 

I didn't hear anything. I would run him out for another, he is mowing them down.

Absolutely, amateurish at-bat by Moreland. I want Betts in the 3-hole for the playoff.

 

What would Betts in three hole have changed at all with Morelands AB? Moreland is batting 5th and our 3 hole hitter has a bomb and a walk today.

We will be very lucky if Thornburg gets out of this inning unscathed....looking pretty horrible out there today. I would have someone up in the pen right now.

I am OK with protecting Sale here. We have 8,000 wins for heaven sake and its about time this pen started to show something besides, sunflower seed contests and God only knows what else.
