Vendors aren't selling fake Italian sausage outside the park yet? Those guys need to modernize. -
The only way to sell high on Beni would have been to keep and hope for a big rebound. A risky strategy in itself.
-
Not sure how anyone could confuse the two. Dalbec is good-looking. Daubach is somewhere between homely and fugly.
-
I blame Cora for that.
-
Stoutly reasoned, to steal a Samuel Beckett line.
-
Oh sure, throw water on a perfectly good conspiracy theory...
-
Or have a second mound closer to the plate for guys who only throw 90.
-
Can someone bring up the collective ERA of Japanese Red Sox relievers? I know it's damn good. Leave out starters, Dice-K messed that up. Just kidding about the stat dig part...
-
This Cordero fellow is really lighting it up for the WooSox.
-
We're probably within days of swapping Dalbec and Chavis.
-
Hopefully this doesn't come across as racist, but some of these Japanese relievers have a long shelf life.
-
Good old Ryan Weber.
-
I hope the same thing that allegedly happened to Cole in his last start, per Donaldson, didn't also happen to Martin Perez last night.

June 8: HOU (Valdez) @ BOS (Perez)

I hope Perez wasn't one of the guys benefiting a little too much from the sticky stuff spin rates. -
I think it might go back to 2011, when Texas and St. Louis were in the World Series, and both relied heavily on their pens. You can see it in the game logs for that World Series. I think Texas really stacked their pen at the deadline that year.

He only became the closer in June or July, that's why the save numbers weren't so high.

June 8: HOU (Valdez) @ BOS (Perez)

They lost a second-round draft pick too, I think, but we get off pretty lightly, so not hammered. -
Even that is debatable. Every team has guys who are not going to end up at 3 WAR or more. Kike should end up around 2, which would make him an MLB average player.
-
I think in all my time as a Sox fan, the only late inning reliever who consistently gave no white knuckles for a long period was 2013 Koji.
-
Just don't watch.
-
And Kike is fine at his price tag. 0.5 fWAR 0.8 bWAR
-
Saying Bloom is 4 for 7 or whatever doesn't really work. Our W-L record and quality of play is much better than expected. He turned the team around in a hurry. Fantastic job.
-
5 for 8, if you count Whitlock?
-
And Marwin is capable of delivering some timely hits. Just ask the Yankees.
-
Whitlock has been a special case from Day One with his Rule 5 status and the injury concerns. The fact he's still pitching so well says to me they're handling him well. This guy could be a big part of our staff for a while.
