  1. @alexspeier Chaim Bloom on the trade deadline: “When you’re in the position we’re in now and you start selling out for rentals, that often doesn’t go well…Our North Star is just . . . continuing to build our core” Wocka Wocka Wocka!
  2. Isn't predicting when a player will get injured bad juju?
  3. No, it's just picking which day to start: the bullpen day or the Pivetta day. Either is fine for now. If he can get stretched out, I would eventually prefer him to not be paired with Pivetta.
  4. Right now, they don't really have the arms in AAA to make that plan viable over a long stretch. It has worked out so far, but there have been too many Orts and Garzas that have been brought up. There are better arms in AA right now that this option could work for though (Liu, Wikelman, Dobbins, Guerrero, Zeferjahn, etc.) in the future.
  5. I'm pretty sure he still knows he's going to pitch that day.
  6. If they hadn't lost the OAK series, I'd agree with you.
  7. Most fans are more knowledgeable about the wins and losses than what Eovaldi is actually up to these days IMO.
  8. Sands was then flipped a few months later in the Holt/Hanrahan deal with Melancon.
  9. 1.80 ERA 3.82 xFIP He's been good in a shorter role, I don't think he can turn the lineup over consistently. He struggled doing so in AAA. I don't see how that could get better in MLB. He's been better in the pen, just leave him there.
  10. Dodgers will use him as the 13th guy on the roster. He'll be the last guy off the bench, but someone who can fill a lot of holes when needed and a good clubhouse guy.
  11. Will cost too much. The strength of the Sox system is 2B/SS so it doesn't make a ton of sense to spend capital to bring a struggling player to fill those roles. 689 OPS since June 1
  12. I think I'd rather use Sale at the start of the bullpen game instead of the Pivetta game. There, he'd have a chance to go 2-3-maybe 4 innings and lighten the load on the pen.
  13. Eovaldi isn't the picture of health. He's only thrown over 150 innings once since 2016. I can't blame them for trying to give him an extra day here and there. They are with him day in and day out. They probably know when his arm needs another breather.
  14. Is this team THAT much better than last year? I'm not entirely sure. They are waiting on injured pitchers to come back. About 2 games back from the expanded WC spot. This team could go either way. They are really running well with a red hot Pivetta, who is also known to get ice cold pretty quick. 86 wins might not be enough to sneak into the playoffs this season.
  15. Chaim alluded to not spending heavily at the trade deadline. I don't think we get any high end starters. More likely they get a mid to back end rotation guy if anything. Snell's value has peaked too high right now.
  16. My grandfather in law will be in a great mood tonight.
  17. @Ken_Rosenthal Dodgers getting Kiké Hernandez, sources tell me and @FabianArdaya .
  18. @alexspeier Cora said the not-yet-completed roster move will hold up the lineup.
  19. @MacCerullo Chris Sale is scheduled to throw live batting practice in Worcester on Thursday. If that goes well he could begin his rehab assignment next week.
  20. They need to figure out how to get Reyes onto the roster. Right now they have one too many players. Chang Kiké Arroyo Reyes Only need 3 of those guys. 14 batters on the active roster right now.
  21. @chadjennings22 The Red Sox clubhouse is now closed to media, and there’s still no roster move announcement from the team. Sox still need to make a MIF move for Reyes.
  22. @THEREAL_DV #Dodgers #RedSox still very much engaged in trade talks for Kiké Hernandez. Do LA Sports Radio guys have the goods?!?!?
  23. They are also going with the home yellows.
