Margot was a pretty highly rated prospect. I'm not really knocking DD. Just saying he was obviously given a win now mandate by JH.
-
The greatest hitting coach in the history of the world can't prevent all his hitters from having any bad months.
-
DD was given the mandate to win now directly from the man who hired him. Henry did not enjoy finishing last 2 years in a row and did not like the prospect of missing the playoffs for the final 3 years of David Ortiz's career.
-
Couldn't be much better. -
Major league pitching and random variances happened to him. They can both be real pricks.
-
You don't consider going from 3 runs up to tied losing the lead? In some sports you have the term co-leader, but that's when there are more than 2 competitors involved. I have never heard the term co-leader used in a baseball game. There's leading, tied or behind.
-
A pretty strong case can be made that the decision did in fact cost the Red Sox the game.
-
All the things you mentioned play their part.
-
If the budget is limitless, roster issues are only peripheral concerns. If a guy isn't performing, regardless of paycheque, you jettison him. See Panda, Castillo and Craig examples.
-
Lose Yankees lose...that is all.
-
Leon is putting up a battle.
-
Nice to see Shaw have a good night. He needed it. The buzzards have been starting to circle.
-
Porcello is really having a season. He's been incredibly stingy with the walks.
-
Maybe 2 months, might as well think big.
-
Markus is tacking on to his WAR tonight.
-
Holt making Farrell look better tonight.
-
That ball was scorched by Young but very close to being catchable by Longoria. Might have been a double play. Game of inches.
-
Oh well, 2 runs and a shitload of pitches thrown. We're swinging the bats anyway.
-
It seems incredible how many times we get thrown out on the bases.

Clay Buchholz - Is he worth the 2016 option?
Bellhorn04 replied to Slasher9's topic in Boston Red Sox Talk
If the option is exercised Clay will have outdone himself, by pitching well for half of a half of a season this time. The guy is a magician. -
Grady Little notwithstanding.
-
He's just another squealer in our pigpen.
-
And Barnes was looking good at the time.
-
Just a temporary lull.

Clay Buchholz - Is he worth the 2016 option?
Bellhorn04 replied to Slasher9's topic in Boston Red Sox Talk
I was thinking about this too (it was actually Saturday he was used). The only way it makes sense is if they intend to use him as our right-handed set-up guy - we certainly appear to need one.
