    Did Farrell leave his Base Running for Dummies Manual in the Red Sox clubhouse?

    If the lineups don't matter and the in-game decisions don't affect the games, why waste money on them. Teams have Press Secretaries to deal with the media. They have pitching coaches to keep the pitchers ready.

    The Utility Infield manager has too much love for Utility IF Holt who should only play if someone is sore.
  4. a700hitter
    Lineups don't matter either, so why bother wasting money on a manager.

    Mentioning Price and Panda in the same breath highlights the nonsensical rabbit hole people are willing to go down in hopes that Price will leave. He’s not leaving for leads than he is has remaining on his contract. Maybe he’d take $2 million less a year to account for a more favorable tax venue and cheaper cost of living. That would take him down to $28-29 million/ year. Does anyone think he willl get that with his elbow history?

    If he can’t get $30 million elsewhere, he will not be leaving. Price is not a happy go lucky personality. He had a nasty disposition when he was on Tampa. If he likes his teammates, he is not going to let the media chase him off $154 million. The fans aren’t giving him a hard time. He probably has a very nice home on a welcoming community. The he hates Boston stuff is overblown. He has disdain for the media, but he is not going to turn his back on that contract because of them. He will just continue to give them a hard time. Leaving for less money is nonsense. No one hated Boston more than Manny, and the team offered several times to tear up his contract to let him walk. He never walked. These guys don’t turn their backs on that kind of money.

    Sorry, but that is nonsense. This is a a business, and Boston is not Afghanistan.

    Gabe Kapler reinforcing today that brains are not a requirement for field managers as he came out to give his pitcher a quick hook, but he had no one warming up in his bullpen. LOL!!!

    Cora blew that game. He left Kelly in too long. Even if Kimbrel was unavailable, it was obvious that Kelly was imploding. Anybody but him would have been an improvement after the second walk.

    Porcello kept the ball in the park and got the victory. Tomorrow is a real wild card with Velasquez going. If we win, starting out 3 and 1 is always good. If we lose tomorrow, splitting against a horse hockey team like Tampa is not good and it will highlight Cora's blown game.
  11. a700hitter
    That is nonsense. He wouldn't opt out of North Korea unless he could get $30 million/year.
  12. a700hitter
    If you want to replace him with a lesser pitcher, we will have a lesser team.
  13. a700hitter
    Then call it a formula. I have no idea which Porcello we see today-- Big Dick or Little Dick. And even if little dick shows up, I don't know if the Rays have much power. That will be my standard prediction every time he pitches. What is your prediction?
  14. a700hitter
    If Price opts out, it will be because he and his agent think that the market is lucrative. If the market is less than $31 million, he will not leave.
  15. a700hitter
    It stands to reason that replacing price if he opts out will be more expensive than the remaining $124 Million.
  16. a700hitter
    You are overreacting. Pissing and moaning about a manager letting a 4-0 lead slip away in the 8th inning against a half-assed team is to be expected. Stop wringing your hands about it. Cora will live.
  17. a700hitter
    Is he the manager? There is plenty of stupidity to go around in manager's offices and coaching staffs in baseball. it is not a very good idea to encourage your catchers to run.
  18. a700hitter
    I will make my usual Porcello prediction. If he keeps he ball in the park, we should win -- 80% probability. If he gives up 1 HR, we have a chance (50% probability of a win). If he gives up 2 or more, it will not be a good day (20% probability of winning).
  19. a700hitter
    No one has called for his head yet, but he takes the hit for game 1.
  20. a700hitter
    Keep the dancing outfielders, but kill the obnoxiously loud walk up music for every hitter.
  21. a700hitter
    Price looked great. He was very sharp in his start that i saw in Fort Myers. He just needs to be healthy.
  22. a700hitter
    I heard nothing new.

    Dweeb tells former MLB player and All Star and 30 year Color Analyst that he is "absolutely right". I am sure that RemDawg needed that validation.
  24. a700hitter
    Dweeb is still in the booth.

    Tony LaRussa is picking out a uniform number.
