6/20 @ Land of 10,000 Mistakes

[d-money]

Is 10 runs enough for kluber?

[d-money]

Cora should take this bum out the game.

[redsoxrules]

I hope someone is warming up. This lead is not safe

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

The truth is, Corey should just walk off the mound, wave goodbye and get on with a nice life. The 10 may not be enough

 

I seriously doubt Kluber has the class of Ryan Dempster.

[Tedballgame]

Just caught up to the game from tape. Great hitting night, except for Devers. Hope Kluber doesn't blow it. 10 runs isn't enough for him.

[d-money]

Should be enough even with this bum.

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

I hope someone is warming up. This lead is not safe

 

Too late now to bring in a position player.

[d-money]

The good guys win! Go Sox! Let’s keep this rolling.

[Jasonbay44]

What a save by Corey Kluber!!

[Tedballgame]

At least Kluber can eat up innings when Sox are up 10 or down 10.

[d-money]

Good win for Crawford. Pitched well for the W.

[Duran Is The Man]

That's what I get for talking smack about Arroyo

 

i did it the other day and he hits a homer about two minutes later.

[Maxbialystock]

Cora hasn't even been mentioned tonight, Max. You may be suffering from paranoia.

 

Not by name, but the question was asked--why Kike at SS and not Arroyo? Do you think the Sox 3d base coach made that decision?

[Maxbialystock]

LOL!

 

I still can't believe they gave him that contract.

 

He was pretty good for the Giants, especially in the postseason.

[moonslav59]

Christian Arroyo is 5-5

 

Sister Christian!

 

[notin]

So the Sox have scored 44 runs in their last 5 games in which Devers has gone 2 for 18 with 1 RBI…

[moonslav59]

Man does Corey Kluber suck ass

 

Firming up the case for his own DFA.

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

If Story returns before the TDL, Kike will be gone, so the controversy and criticism will end.

[moonslav59]

To me, that is great news, because I am pretty sure Devers will hit over .800 the rest of the season.

Stunning stats. The pitching's been pretty good too--and I'm pretty sure Raffey didn't throw any.

[Maxbialystock]

Yep. Joining the dud liberation movement.

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

I'm sure you're referring to OPS.

[moonslav59]

Good win for Crawford. Pitched well for the W.

 

Indeed: 5 IP

77 pitches

 

Bernardino has been a gem in the rough, so far.

[moonslav59]

I'm sure you're referring to OPS.

 

That's what I always mean.

 

BA is so yesterday.

[Maxbialystock]

Pretty big if.

[Tedballgame]

Bobby D. another homer tonight. .300 B.A., 18 homers and 42 RBI. Good for him. There might be hope for him yet. He might just be figuring it out. With his power, can't give up on him yet.

[Maxbialystock]

Worth repeating: another terrific win. Great to see the bats go to work against a pretty good starter. And Crawford's 5 scoreless innings were just as great.

[moonslav59]

Where can he play for us, this year or next?

 

1B: Casas/Turner

DH: Turner/Yoshida

 

[Maxbialystock]

Astounding play by Wong to start that double play by throwing to 2d base. I doubt that that particular double play--home to 2d to 1st--is made even once per season in MLB.

While Dalbec himself will not bring a significant player in a heads up trade, he could be the icing on the cake for a starter from a team needing DH or 1B help to finish the season. He is cheap and showing the ability to go on a tear albeit at AAA level. At his age, his only other possibility is a DFA or a non roster ST invite next year....OR what if the Sox unfortunately suffer an injury to Casas or Turner or heaven help us Devers requiring a shuffling of Turner to 3B .
