Go SOX!

[a700hitter]

No Betts. I wonder how his side feels?

[iortiz]

Seems like Judge is back and we are not going with Betts an Benny.

 

Hopefully we clinch the division in this series.

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

No Betts. I wonder how his side feels?

 

According to what I read, Cora did have Betts in the starting line-up, but decided to sit him because of the soggy field conditions.

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

Yankems will be motivated because of their fight with the A's for HF advantage.

[a700hitter]

Judge is back tonight.

[a700hitter]

Still raining heavily on Long Island.

[TylerD]

No Betts tonight in the lineup and with Nathan pitching. Likely a loss. But hope for the best.

[iortiz]

According to what I read, Cora did have Betts in the starting line-up, but decided to sit him because of the soggy field conditions.

 

So he rather put JD there?

[iortiz]

Eovaldi has a couple of solid starts vs NY. Hopefully we can pound Happ early in the game.

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

Since the Yankems acquired Happ in late July, he's been their best starter. Hopefully, he's due for a bad start tonight. As for Eovaldi, he's a complete question mark.

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

So he rather put JD there?

 

 

Does sound confusing.

[Kimmi]

No Betts. I wonder how his side feels?

 

Even though Cora said he thought Mookie would DH tonight, I'm really not the least bit surprised that he's not in the line up. Why take that risk when there's no need?

[Kimmi]

Does sound confusing.

 

Mookie is nursing an injury. JD is not.

[iortiz]

Does sound confusing.

 

Yeah, JD is a decent RF, but if the field conditions is the reason and Betts is heathy, I think Betts can handle it better without getting injured.

[Slasher9]

Let’s dance on that infield like it’s 2004 ALCS

[illinoisredsox]

Except Betts IS injured, even if slightly. I want him as close to 100% as is possible for the postseason. It is not worth aggrevating further whatever he has.

[illinoisredsox]

Let’s dance on that infield like it’s 2004 ALCS

 

Nah. Mostly cause it's not like that.

 

The normal postwin "celebration" will be just fine; it will indicate a higher aim. Also, it would be the 3rd straight division, kind of a been there, done that thing.

[a700hitter]

Even though Cora said he thought Mookie would DH tonight, I'm really not the least bit surprised that he's not in the line up. Why take that risk when there's no need?

Agreed. He needs to be 100% and then rest him 2 additional days before trotting him out there.

[Thunder]

Win. Clinch. Repeat. x3

[a700hitter]

Dance on the field and whoop it up. Never pass on a chance to rub the Yankees' faces in it. They would never spare us. Red Sox fans need to learn how to win better.

[d-money]

I can’t stand Cora. Does anyone have this team’s record against left handed starters this season?

[d-money]

That lineup that cora put up tonight is meh.

[illinoisredsox]

I can’t stand Cora. Does anyone have this team’s record against left handed starters this season?

 

God you are insufferable. 103-47 and you still complain.

[Bellhorn04]

God you are insufferable. 103-47 and you still complain.

 

Yeah, it's unreal.

[d-money]

God you are insufferable. 103-47 and you still complain.

 

I don’t give a damn because it doesn’t matter until they do something in October. They have had a bunch of wins and nothing to shown for it. Call me an ungrateful fan or whateva. I just don’t like the lineup. I know mookie’s hurt.

[Station 13]

let's go JD

[iortiz]

Productive out, but JD is officially slumping. Hopefully he finds his way again before PO.

[Station 13]

Xander c'mon man, do better vs LHP.

[iortiz]

It was cheap for Happ. We should’ve scored at least 2.
