OK. 100 then. Doesn't sound like a guy with a sore shoulder. My guess is that its likely a phantom injury. Everyone in the organization knows what happened to him last year when he just wore down. The team is all in this year, going for broke. They have as good a chance as the Yankees and the Astros to win a ring IMO. Why not rest your ace for the stretch run? We have a five game lead on the Yankees and have won 7 more games...hard to disagree with the game plan.
-
He hit 98 in the ASG and hasn't pitched since.
-
Gotta PH with Betts if Kinsler doesn't hit into a DP
-
s***
-
Not going to win this one....on to the Yankees. The bats had better wake up.
-
Swihart is earning himself a catcher's job...great job defensively tonight
-
Unfortunately this means one more start.
-
When can we take Nunez out of the lineup....and Moreland needs to grab some pine too if he can't hit better than this.
-
He bails out on every swing. Hard to hit that way.
-
The beginning of the end of Drew Pomeranz....what's your hurry Drew? Here's your coat........
-
Are we really going to waste a leadoff double again??
-
Sale threw at his usual velocity during his 9 pitches in the ASG....generally if you have a significant injury you don't throw at 98. I am not overly concerned.
-
-
Because Pomeranz stinks. He may have a single good game, but the chances that he will be useful to this team with any consistency are virtually nil. I would rather give someone who is competent a chance and release Pomeranz.
-
Lets see....who among those three is most deserving to be demoted or released...hmmm. This is not the dress rehearsal any more. Its August. The show is on. Get rid of Pomeranz. He isn't coming back next year anyway.
-
You are about the only guy who still has any confidence in Pomeranz. Personally, I think he is toast this year. He has never shown us anything that could help this club-and its nearly August. How much longer should we wait? If he cannot win convincingly tonight I would like to see him released-not go to the pen-released and free up a roster spot for someone who can actually help this club win a ring.
-
I do not know if he is on the 60d DL. One link lists him as being on the 10d DL.
-
The bullpen is actually very good, but if the team has a remaining area for improvement, its getting a reliable LH RP. Johnson will eventually take Pomeranz's job I think. Pom has nothing left and should be DL'd to make room for someone who can actually help the club. If the pen performs up to its capabilities its fine the way it is. Even Kelly had a good outing last night....as did everyone else out there.
-
Not sure if Pedroia is still on the 25 man roster or how that would work, but he is toast, and as harsh as it would seem, I think they need to release him if he is still on the roster taking up a space.
-
Its a solid move for a team that is clearly all in this year. Nunez is a disaster at 2B, and Holt is much more useful as a utility player than as a regular 2B man. Kinsler will shore up the defense up the middle. And as far as surrendering a couple of "non prospect RPs", those guys are a dime a dozen.
-
Swihart wins the game
-
Holt is at .839/.699 with a reverse split...hits LHP better
-
Walks....damn.
-
Nunez has had a very good game.
-
So who is their emergency catcher now that Leon is out?
