Is that with or without a liver transplant? (See above post)
-
Cole lost last night to the Astros so Sox will miss him this series, Fried is coming off the injuried list and will be on a pitch count, and Saturday is a double header. Bullpens will play a big role in this series and the Sox should have Whitlock back, a rested bullpen, and Bello pitching in one of the games on Saturday.
-
Even if that is the case, wouldn't having Gasper as pitch hitter (from the left side) coming off the bench be a big positive. Plus, he has played first and caught. A third catcher with Rutschman's health in question. It would be a mistake if he is the one sent down.

You never know what you are going to get from Sandoval. To make matters worse the Yanks rearranged their rotation to throw Schlitter in Game 1. Yanks have a hard time scoring runs, particularly against lefties, so Sandoval just needs to keep Sox in the game and Sox" O "needs to run up the pitch count to get into the Yanks bullpen.

D-backs (Pfaadt) vs Red Sox (Tolle): 08/19/26, 4:10 PM

That is why I avoid typing his name in my posts in hopes that I save his liver. I think his time in Boston may be coming to an end. Basically, he has missed the last two years and who knows how much baseball will be played with the lockout looming! The Sox could have used his power in April, May, and June!

A Realistic View at the 2026 Red Sox Part II

Good problem to have! Moore players that can help then roster spots. Remember rosters expand to 28 in September. Another thing to keep in mind is who has options left. -
As of today the Sox would pitch Gray, Suarez, and Tolle would be your starters and Bennett and Crochet (If he is back) would be used out of the pen. I saw something today that looks like a potential plan if Crochet makes it back. Would be ideal opener for Bello and an option for a playoff game.

Yoshida sounds like he might be done for the season. And Slaton and Whitlock are missed and probably cost the Sox the final game of the D-Backs series.
-
A healthy Anthony and 2025 Story can help this team. It will make easier to give some of the Sox days off to recharge their batteries for the stretch run. 1B-3B-CF-RF have played a lot over the last couple months and all of them seem to look better hitting after a day off.
-
Agree! This is a game which the injuries in the bullpen (Whitlock and Slaten) cost us. I am so done with Weissert.

Payton Tolle's Learned How To Kill Reaction Time In Dominant Start Against Athletics

Sounds about right!
-
During the winning streak it happened enough that the Sox went on a "Summer Saving" streak!
-
Today, against the Jays he pitched to contact. Nice to see him have different approaches based on the lineup he is facing.
-
Yes, the Sox could have used another starter to eat some of the innings down the stretch.
-
Needs to shut it down! The last injury sounds like he was doing too much too fast. With him being hurt so much the last two years he was trying to get back yesterday.
