    Having your ace start Game 1 is certainly important. If the series does go to Game 7, that pitcher would be available out of the pen, if nothing else. Game 7 is all hands on deck. Besides that, I think most teams would really like to win Game 1. So even if your ace couldn't pitch 3 times, having him start the first game is important.

    Exactly. Cora will make the right decisions. Even if they don't work out, they will be the right decisions. I really hate that we have to play without our DH in these NL road games. One way or the other, they really should make both leagues consistent.

    Being eliminated by the Yankees would be the worst. Once we knocked them out, I could relax. A little. LOL

    I don't really care who we play, though I've become an 'unfan' of the Dodgers due some of their players, mainly Machado. OTOH, I do like Roberts and Kershaw. Either way, I'm just hoping that series goes 7 games.
  5. Kimmi
    In Cora we trust.
  6. Kimmi
    Maybe Jackie sits out 2 and Beni sits out one? Or better yet, we wrap this series up in 4 games and make that 3rd road game a moot point.

    LOL Breaking news: Sale is out of Mass General and will start Game 1 on Tuesday.

    Station is the man!

    Bottom line, Kimbrel has gotten the job done. He's probably aged us a few years along the way, but he's gotten the job done.

    LOL Where's the "Is it over thread"?

    Dombrowski and Cora both deserve a lot of credit for this year. I am a huge Cora fan. Dombrowski, not so much, though I am a fan of his midseason moves. That said, regardless of how good this team is and how well prepared they are, it still takes luck (or a minimal number of bad breaks) to win a championship. Things have gone really, really well for us so far. The World Series should be ours for the taking. I really like our chances, obviously even more so than I did at the beginning of the postseason and at the beginning of the ALCS. If by some chance the Sox fall short, I think it would be hard pressed for anyone to fault either Cora or Dombrowski.

    We love Jacko. We owe our season to him.

    Go figure. What a crazy game this game of baseball is. Also, let me add again that momentum means nothing in baseball in terms of predicting future games.
  14. Kimmi
    Of course he is. He will walk the bases loaded and cut a 3 run lead down to 2, but when he really needs to make the pitch, he's there!
  15. Kimmi
    Re-signing Eovaldi should take precedence over re-signing Kimbrel.
  16. Kimmi
    Cora has already said that Price is likely the Game 2 starter, but it might change depending on who we're playing. So yeah, he'll be ready.
  17. Kimmi
    Any pitcher that tells a Yankee player to get the f___ back in the box is okay in my book.
  18. Kimmi
    Wright is supposedly healthy and ready to pitch in the World Series. I'd be surprised if he's not added back to the roster. I'd keep Swihart on the roster. As someone pointed out, whether he actually gets the playing time or not is not the important factor. The important factor is that it allows Cora to be able to pinch hit for his catchers with no hesitation.
  19. Kimmi
    Very cool observation. What kind of 'four' thing can the NL team troll us with before we start this series? LOL
  20. Kimmi
    ^^This.
  21. Kimmi
    It's been more than a five game postseason series though. And even back when he was still slumping, he was hitting the ball with authority. That said, I don't want him to be traded, and never did. I am happy that he and Price, both of whom have taken more than their share of criticism this year, are having their postseason moments. I am happy for both.
  22. Kimmi
    Cora seems to have that magic touch. It must be the analytics that he's using. I was excited about Cora's hiring from Day 1. Dombrowski did good on that one.
  23. Kimmi
    Not sure whether he develops stats, but he definitely does statistical research and statistical studies. If you meet the qualifications for the job, then 1. I bow to you, Notin, the Great. 2. You should definitely apply! Once you get the job, you can hire me a your right hand woman.
  24. Kimmi
    Also, WOOHOO!!!
  25. Kimmi
    Yup. We have eliminated the toughest opponents, IMO. That said, the Sox cannot take either of the NL teams lightly (and I don't think they will). Anything can happen in a short series. One game at a time.
