    We need a right handed 20+ HR bat at minimum. Two would be better! Maybe one a FA signing and the other via trade. You can not play in Fenway and be at the bottom of the league hitting homers.

    I hope everyone enjoyed Yankee Elimination Day yesterday!

    By pulling him in the fifth you now have to get outs in the fifth, sixth, and seventh to get to Whitlock and Chappy! Who in the bullpen is going to get those outs. If you had Slaton and Guerrero for the Sixth and seventh then maybe you can bring in Miller in the fifth. I would have rolled the dice with Tolle to get out of the fifth. Probably throws 90 plus pitches by that point and then bring in Miller in the sixth.

    I had no issues with the starters other then they were pulled to early. Both of them should have been left in because we needed 6 plus from both with the shape that the bullpen was in.

    The same now can be said about Anthony. Two seasons in a row that his power was counted on in the PO and he was hurt. The only way the Sox would have beaten the Yankees in the Wild Card round is if the July Sox were playing. Instead the April, May, and September Sox showed up. You need to hit for power in the playoffs to score runs.
  6. Behindenemylines
    We still need to add power to this lineup. Even if the bullpen didn't blowup the Sox still only scored 2 runs in two games. Early in both games I kept wishing that the Sox could get someone on and that someone could hit one in the short right field porch. Never happened! It is hard to string three or four hits in a row against good pitching. The Sox we saw in the PO were April and May Sox.

    Tracy pulled both Tolle and Gray way too early. By the end of the season the bullpen was a shell of itself. Both were close games until Tracy went to the middle innings pitchers. Injuries to Slaton and Guerrero, and Miller and his control issues did the middle innings pitchers in. He needed 6 plus innings from both of them and pulled them for lessor pitchers way too early.

    Didn't see this coming! The start to Game 1 and when Paez was brought in to finish Game 2 I thought the Sox would be the one being swept.

    He earned it by what took place this season. He helped saved what was looking like a lost summer for Red Sox Nation.

    Agree, having Arias waiting in the wing made the trade easier to make. Everything I have read Mayer's family pushed for and was happy with the trade. Not everyone has what it takes to play under the pressure of playing for the Sox. Plus he was always hurt and that didn't help with him trying to gain traction in the majors.
  11. Behindenemylines
    The strikeouts are frustrating, but where would the Sox be if they had traded him last off season. While a lot of teammates have been hurt throughout the season he always answers the bell. The game the Sox won last week against Cleveland that was him. Stolen base and just beating the throw home (not sure anyone else currently on the roster is safe on that play).
  12. Behindenemylines
    This trade has worked out well for both far! Looks like Early might get a start before the end of the season, and Mead is hitting again.
  13. Behindenemylines
    To beat the Yankees in the wild card round they need to match the Yankee starters and get into the bullpen. Plus they need to get a big hit when they get traffic on the base paths. They are going to have to score more than two runs to win a game. The season has shown when they score 4 or more runs they are tough to beat!
  14. Behindenemylines
    Captain Obvious: Duran strikes out way to much! His leg kick that starts his swing is way to high as it does not allow him to react to off speed stuff. any pitcher that gets strike one on him has control of the at bat.
  15. Behindenemylines
    The walks kill him because you know he is going to give up hits and that just means that there is a lot of traffic on the basepaths. I do not want see him again until the Sox clinch a playoff spot. He didn't even make it through the lineup once.
  16. Behindenemylines
    Looks like it will be a long off season for baseball. Don't understand how millionaires can't come up with a solution for players saleries!
  17. Behindenemylines
    Didn't they have a World Cup this summer?
  18. Behindenemylines
    Does anyone know the final score of the Patriot game?
  19. Behindenemylines
    Agree! This is a topic to revisit in the off season. I am more concerned with the starting pitching holding up. Back-to-back losses to a last place Angels team that put up crocket numbers in inning against Sox starters. If Sox don't get solid pitching against Yanks (I'm assuming that is our playoff opponent) they have no chance!
  20. Behindenemylines
    Only lasted one day as injury solved the problem of sending the Mick down.
  21. Behindenemylines
    Sox sacrificed the game to give Gray rest and to reset the rotation for the Orioles series. At minimum the Sox need a split. Orioles would not gain any ground and four more games off the schedule.
  22. Behindenemylines
    Sox need to make a statement tonight! Don't let the Orioles get the momentum in game one of the series. Orioles need to win three or seep the series, and a loss in game 1 would be vital!
  23. Behindenemylines
    Is that with or without a liver transplant? (See above post)
  24. Behindenemylines
    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.
  25. Behindenemylines
    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.
