    There we go... we need to capitalize this with more runs.
  2. iortiz
    We need a blast from JD here.

    What an AB by Devers, something is cooking here. Go Sox!

    Wtf is going on with the count in the display of NESN. It’s been failing for a while.
  5. iortiz
    LOL! Yeah. Velazquez is trash tonight.

    Sometimes fans don’t make justice to the best players.

    He’s easily the best SS in baseball and wasn’t even considered in the bench. Unbelievable.

    There are several ways to win a WS. Last year was by winning 108 games while slaughtering everyone in POs including the Yankees in their own turf. Maybe this year will be different. I wouldn't discard the Sox, not just yet. There's a lot of talent in the offense and rotation, and while the BP has been a mess in late innings, if the Sox figure out how to solve it, be careful. Nobody will want to face us in POs if we are hot and with all engines oiled.

    That's the thing. These days he depends a lot on the defense rather than his stuff which was a trade mark through his career. Look at 2018. Our defense saved his ass several times last year.

    That's how I see the thing Steve. He gave us his best years which IMO are very gone, but this is baseball. We had to move on.

    As I said, time will tell. Entering the season, I wanted a closer, no question about that but a younger one. IMO the days of Kimbrel in Red Sox uniform had to end last season.
  12. iortiz
    Benny is clearly a hot mess right now, but I wouldn't trade anybody. Geez this season has been frustrating as hell but we are 2 games behind the WC and still a lot of baseball to be played.
  13. iortiz
    We have to see more but entering the season I didn't want Kimbrel. IMO The Kimbrel of Atlanta and later in Boston in recent years is pretty gone. His command and control probably will never be the same. Geez, we were very close to lose in PO because of him.

    Furthermore. Limiting the load of work in his arm in the second half in the BP, could be an excellent ramp up for possible starts in POs.
  15. iortiz
    Seems like Kimbrel is not having a good time in Chicago.
  16. iortiz
    yeah it was stupid.
  17. iortiz
    Can someone explain how's Nuñez better than Holt hitting here?
  18. iortiz
    If Betts and Benis bats don't turn around we ain't going anywhere nothin. Anywhere. You won't compete vs Yankees, Astros and Twins without those bats. No way. Those bats were key last year. Devers and Xander have helped to cover their underperformance.

    I'm saying using only Velazquez, Johnson and Wright (1-6,7 IP) every fifth day. Wonder what's the record with Johnson and Velazquez starting. Given the circumstances putting Eovaldi at closing could give us more chances to win more games in the second half. Also we are going to need Beni's and Betts' bats badly. Without them, it won't matter what you do in the BP.

    Looking at the facts, this move could work it out and turn into a win-win situation for the Sox beyond the paycheck of Evaldi. The Sox are clogged in their payroll. JH is not planning to add more payroll. Nathan has an injury-prone arm. We don't have a closer. Nathan has proven to pitch well in high-leverage situations. We don't have top prospects to trade for elite BP arms. We can BP every five day —Johnson-Velazquez-Wright Said that, Eovaldi at closing is a prudent move considering the facts.

    It’s hard to see 2 errors in one play by one player. Chavis made it possible.
  22. iortiz
    and another walk LOL!
  23. iortiz
    Another walk and still nobody out LOL!
  24. iortiz
    Nothing, our BP sucks. Plain and simple.
  25. iortiz
    Wonder what would DD trade for BP arms.
