    He didn't need the rest. HE PITCHED GREAT THAT GAME SO CLEARLY HE DIDN'T NEED REST.

    You can't even get the thesis right. 1. Sale has alternated great and horrible starts since August 1. http://www.fangraphs.com/statsd.aspx?playerid=10603&position=P LOOK AT THAT GAME LOG AND TELL ME IT'S NOT A THING. 2. Sale has a history of wearing down over the course of the season. 3. Some posters think his innings may need to be managed in the 2nd half of the season. 4. Having Sale pitch a full 8 innings against a hapless O's lineup with a large lead is just dumb no matter what. After 5 innings, the Sox were up 6 - 0. There was little reason to keep trotting him out. The bullpen was firing on all cylinders at that time. That one game is just indicative of Farrell not managing the situation well. It's not the sole reason he pitched bad last night.

    Please don't throw the statistics out with the bathwater.

    @jtomase John Farrell says David Price is ready to pitch back-to-back games.

    If the Sox and Yanks wind up tied—and somewhere, you can bet Rob Manfred is praying for this—they would play a one-game tiebreaker in the Bronx to determine the division champion, with the loser most likely winding up as the host of the wild card game. https://www.si.com/mlb/2017/09/22/american-league-playoff-race-team-entropy?utm_campaign=si-mlb&utm_source=twitter.com&utm_medium=social&xid=socialflow_twitter_si

    I don't even want to think about losing game 163 and following that up with a loss in the WC game.

    Sale. It would be his turn in the rotation. Some may say he's the 2nd best and not an ace because ummmmm uhhhh because TalkSox?
  9. mvp 78
    f*** that noise. The division is ours bitches.

    There is no way Travis is on the PS roster unless there is an injury to Hanley or Moreland.

    Fire Farrell Trade Pedroia DFA Buchholz

    I understand your point, but think the 9th inning didn't have to do with anything except pitch count. If he didn't get to 300 by the end of the 8th, I think he would have still not pitched the 9th.

    I'm not sure I can watch Porcello starts anymore. Looks like I'm going to have to get loaded before I turn the tv on.

    http://www.fangraphs.com/statsd.aspx?playerid=10603&position=P&type=4&gds=&gde=&season=2017 Because he was at 111 pitches. He hasn't thrown 120 in a game all year.

    JBJ is in a sucky stretch he won't pull out of. Pedroia and Nunez are injured. Hanley is terrible right now. Moreland is just mediocre, it's all he'll ever be.
  16. mvp 78
    JBJ 2017 April - May: BABIP 220 OPS 669 May 30th - July 4th: BABIP 412 OPS 1029 July 5th - Sept: BABIP 263 OPS 598 It looks like he'll continue on the one hot month per year path.
  17. mvp 78
    JBJ is basically a guy who gets molten hot for one month a year and then plays s***** otherwise.
  18. mvp 78
    I'm not sure it's about the k's. I think Sale just thinks he's a warrior who should pitch 125 pitches every 5 days no matter what. It's up to Farrell to manage Sale and he's doing a poor job at it.

    Sale

    mvp 78 replied to dustcover's topic in Boston Red Sox Talk

    We’ll always have last Wednesday! He pitched so great. It’s obvious he didn’t need rest.
  21. mvp 78
    No, we need to move him for Moustakas.

    http://deadspin.com/jon-lester-is-not-happy-about-the-nacho-man-1818807336 Lester is such a turd sometimes.
  23. mvp 78
    Eck and Remy had a lot to say about that decision too. Their point was that you couldn't learn anything about Nunez's knee when Nunez jogged down the 3b line to show that he was ok. It's baffling that he wouldn't just talk him out of staying in and say "we need you for the playoffs."
  24. mvp 78
    Sale already had an antagonistic relationship with ownership going back to the Adam Laroche nonsense. I think he just hated the culture there. I can't blame him for that.
  25. mvp 78
    I agree with this 100%.
