  1. Yes. We're all over it here. An interesting detail is that our old buddy Eric Gagne sent Cora a text about it. They were both on the 2007 team. To which Slasher had one of the lines of the year: 'that trade for Gagne finally paid off'.
  2. Let's take a look at some of those Koji numbers from 2013. They really are beyond incredible. I think it's the WHIP numbers that are the most mind-boggling. July .391 Aug .364 Sept .286 !!! ALDS .333 ALCS .667 not at his best! LOL WS .429
  3. In 2013 Koji probably had the best run of any closer in history, or maybe Rivera had a similar stretch. When we say we don't want any drama from our closer, we're basically saying we don't want any baserunners. We don't even want any balls put in play, actually. An immaculate inning would be nice.
  4. Dave has been brilliant since the day the 2017-2018 offseason started.
  5. In the 2014 WS, Bumgarner pitched Game 1, 7 innings, Game 5, on regular rest, 9 innings, and Game 7, on 2 days rest, the final 5 innings. I would say it was fairly important to the Giants winning that Bumgarner started Game 1.
  6. This is it. Wright would be replacing Workman or Hembree, not Swihart.
  7. Yes, it's a bit risky. But saying it 'doesn't accomplish a whole lot' might be taking it a bit far. We're talking about trying to optimize our lineup in 3 World Series games. That can be a big deal.
  8. Might as well bump this one too.
  9. I was just arguing against Jackso's statement that the Astros gave up.
  10. If Mookie plays 2B, Kinsler and Holt sit.
  11. The Red Sox were not over for 2017. That story is out of date.
  12. There was no suggestion to sit JD.
  13. I was most certainly not advocating for JDM or Mookie to sit.
  14. They didn't give up, man. Beni doesn't catch that ball it would have been a 2-2 series and we're playing in Fenway tomorrow.
  15. Should we really be sitting JBJ 3 games in a row the way he's been swinging it?
  16. And David Price did not allow any popups into the Crawford boxes.
  17. We have seen that Cora can be a creative fellow. Mookie at second is not entirely out of the question.
  18. Kimbrel had some issues, but he's not a chocker.
  19. Jackie Brasier Jr.?
  20. Not sure how the dots connect there.
  21. I don't put a lot of weight on Butterfield's reaction. If it was a player it might be different. Butterfield was a member of John Farrell's coaching staff, as he was in Toronto, and I assume they're pretty tight. When Pedroia said it's them, it's pretty obvious to me he was including Farrell. I think Farrell screwed up that whole retaliation thing. So to me it's perfectly understandable Butterfield would be uncomfortable with the situation because of his allegiance to Farrell.
  22. HAHAHAHA...well played.
  23. Price said throwing all those warmup pitches the night before actually seemed to make him feel better last night. So on top of a great game, maybe he learned something useful about his preparation.
