7/13 Dodgers @ Boston GT 7:10PM EST on FOX

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

R. Stripling 3-3 3.79 ERA vs C. Sale 3-8 4.04 ERA

 

 

 

Need Sale to look ACE-like tonight.

[vegasbob]

This will be an ACE or an ASS game for Sale. Can't hold anything back at this point. Either Chris can bring something to the upcoming run for the playoffs or he is a variety of sourdough toast.

[moonslav59]

It does seem to be the moment of truth for Sale.

 

Will he be...

 

Chris Freakin' Sale

 

or

 

Freakin' Chris Sale?

[OH FOY]

Ahead in the count Batters are hitting .171

Behind in the Count Batters hitting .282

This year.

Real Crazy

Days Games Sale has a 6.44 ERA

Night Games 2.80 ERA

[Thunder]

Absolutely a perfect day in Boston. Win. Dance. Repeat. x6 I'm in Bellinger foul ball country. Let's hope he doesn't straighten anything out

[OH FOY]

Wonder if Sox go to Leon to Catch him. They should. No clue why, but he just does not do good with Vazquez. The main thing Sale has pitched only 31 inning to Vazquez and he has allowed 9 HRS.

Leon. 76 innings, 7 HRS.

Chris Sales ERA is over 4. This makes Tyler sad

[OH FOY]

And to top all the crazy splits its this, I never thought this could happen with Sale.

Left handed batters are hitting.258

Right Handed batters .215

[d-money]

Can they hand us all the orioles wins already? What a pathetic franchise. Can’t score a lousy run.

JBJ dropped back down to 9 is interesting.

 

I know Brock bats lefty, but his splits are about as even as can be. 2 games in a row for Brock. No Nunez. No Marco.

 

Maybe the biggest game of the year, so far, for Sale.

When Bradley is hitting well, he has thrived in the 9th spot and turns over the order.

[Bellhorn04]

Beat LA.

[a700hitter]

Rays have lost the first game of their DH in Baltimore 2-1.

[d-money]

Rays just lost to the orioles lol

I am extremely proud to say that a new Red Sox, Bruins & Pats fan has entered the world today. Cheers guys! The little guy is cute as a button just like his brother. 😎😁

Congrats.

Congrats.

 

Thank you!

Yankems lost to BJ's 2-1, although BJ's f'ing manager did all he could to try to let Yankems win in the 9th.

That's great news, YAZ. Although that's a weak excuse for failing to continue your winning OP's. Only kidding.

Btw, if the SOX cooperate, I wouldn't mind doing the OP's continuously until the end of the WS. Odds of this happening 100,000,000,000 to 1. Edited July 13, 2019 by SPLENDIDSPLINTER

[moonslav59]

Yanks and Rays lose today!

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

Giles didn't close for the BJ's today. Either he's hurt or there's a trade eminent.

[moonslav59]

When Bradley is hitting well, he has thrived in the 9th spot and turns over the order.

 

He's also had his worst slumps in the 9 slot.

 

What I find interesting is the timing of the move back to the 9 slot vs a RHP and with Leon in the order.

Beat LA.

 

Again!

Ha!

[Oscars]

Good job by DD trading for Cashner from the Orioles.

We now have a 5th starter. Actually he has been substantially better than Porcello this season so we now have a good 4th starter and Rick is our struggling 5th starter!

[Bellhorn04]

Giles didn't close for the BJ's today. Either he's hurt or there's a trade eminent.

 

He was unavailable because of inflammation in elbow.

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

Trade alert:

 

SOX acquire Andrew Cashner for 2 minor leaguers. Cashner is 9-3 with a 3.83 ERA and a 1.19 WHIP.
