Trade him for who then?

I don't think you can 'de-mystify' the 9th. Pitching the 9th with a 1-run or even a 2-run lead is always going to be stressful. Certainly a lot has been said, and even a little has been done, about using the best reliever in the truly critical situation, which can often occur before the 9th.
-
That all may be so. Let me say this. However Alex Cora deploys his relievers is probably about as good as you can do it. He's a good manager, I think, and he's got all the information at his disposal.
-
I don't know, other than Price he's our only starting pitcher with any significant years of control.
-
The Yankees weren't favored.
-
Don't forget the Red Sox tried the 'closer by committee' thing in 2003. And that offseason Theo signed Keith Foulke...
-
I'll be impressed if you don't.
-
Gonna be fun when you guys sign him.
-
All I really know is he hasn't pitched since September 30. That's a seriously long layoff.
-
That's a swing and a miss, Skippy.
-
I remember your WAFL (Wins Above Felipe Lopez). Yes, it's kind of sick the things I remember.
-
No, I wasn't questioning any of that. I'm mainly talking about the 27 pitches part. I think Hinch should have at least removed him after he hit Moreland.
-
They might even get a bit of a punk discount on him now.
-
Yeah, it doesn't look good on them, that's for sure. It's a real head-scratcher why, if they were going to cheat, they would choose a method so easy to detect.
-
Easy to second-guess, but I don't think it was a great move by Hinch leaving Osuna in for 27 pitches.
-
It seems to be getting some coverage. The details are pretty weird. Not exactly high-tech snooping, more like some guy hanging around the dugouts with a cell phone.
-
Maybe just a different place to talk about the game. The bitching on the actual game threads has been ridiculous this year. Enough to make a lot of people avoid them.
-
Machado added to his punk reputation yet again last night. Unbelievable.
-
I'm not sure who wanted Fister back or why. The guy pitched a few good games last year but in general he was an end-of-the-line junkballer and his overall numbers were not very good.
-
********. There were others who stayed sensible too.
-
The home runs by Pearce and JBJ were LOUD.
-
Great news to hear your whole coaching staff is returning.
-
You have to like him. He pitched well for us in the regular season too, aside from a couple of rough outings.
-
Pearce has proven to be a fantastic acquisition. As has Eovaldi - that might actually be an understatement - he's come up huge. He must be on Cloud 9 right now.
-
iortiz, I think I'm feeling the presence of those Aztec Gods!
