Red Sox v Orioles March 30th

[moonslav59]

Plus, O’s looked like profesional thieves. They stole the bases all day long.

 

Walks that turn into doubles due to SBs are extra costly!

[cukes]

DFA'ing would work, too.

 

Protect Ward and sign another RP'er or add Sheriff.

 

Try anything, it can't get any worse but some idiots don't like to be told especially when they are in charge, tomorrow's attitude will tell a lot, a whole winter and this is what we have, the whole division won their opening day except guess who? I'll wait

While I'm onboard with criticizing Bloom for having Brasier and Ort on the 26 and even the 40, it's on Cora to be pitching them on day one, when we have the following day off.

Who was he going to bring in when Kluber got taken out in the 4th? Who’s the long man? Bra Man, or Ort are not a long man. That would have been a spot for Houck, or Whitlock who I still believe should be in the BP. I understand that Houck is only starting, because of Bello, and Whitlock being out. I agree Brasier, and Ort shouldn’t even be on the 40 let alone the 26, and that’s all on Bloom.

Would you guys like to take Tyler Danish back as well? He'd fit right in.

Maybe the Sour Man, and Hansel too.

We've had an unbelievable amount of trash pass through our bullpen doors the last few years.

 

Now I have to figure out an anagram for Tyler Danish that has trash in it.

It gives Yankee fans a chance to make the coffee and jokes for a while. We have about run out of them.

Antlery dish?

I think we all agree Brasier and Ort are the worst of the 13 pitchers. One could think about using the 5th starter, Pivetta, since with the day off, he's still get normal rest before his game 5 start.

 

We had 8 RP'ers to play, Thursday and Friday an off day, if you throw out my Pivetta idea.

 

Let's say we save Jansen and Martin for the 8th and 9th. That leaves:

 

Wink- good for 1-4 IP

Schreiber- good for 1-2 IP

Bleier- good for 1 IP, but did pitch 2 in ST'ing

I'm not sure Kelly is a better option, but I did find 3, not counting Pivetta.

 

I can see thinking the use of Winck as a long man might take him out of Saturday's Sale start, but that start was 2 days away.

I have to say trying Mata, Walter and maybe even Murphy over Brasier and Ort is not something some of us have just thought of.t

 

Getting Whitlock back should knock one clown off the 26. Bello and Paxton might knock off two more.

The modern managerial philosophy is not to "chase wins". If you fall behind by several runs early, your % chances of winning the game are low, so you manage accordingly.

 

Plus Cora's philosophy is to use everybody that Bloom gives him. And for some reason they think Brasier and Ort can get guys out.

Headed to the game today if the weather holds up. Looks dry this afternoon but we would have gotten over a half inch of rain by then
