    MVP and I prefer the term Goober.

    Good grief, the Mets stink.

    Farrell got the pen going as soon as Martin singled. IMO, that was an appropriate time to do so. The next guy got a hit on the first pitch. Willis did go to the mound at that time to settle Price down and to buy some time for the pen. I agree that Farrell probably reacted a little too slowly, but that inning unraveled very quickly.

    Can't really say, not knowing what the game situation will be. But since we hypothesizing, Porcello goes 8 innings, Kimbrel comes in for the close.

    I'm always hype! Go Sox!

    That's a fair point, but the more often you get relievers up to warm up, the more you risk 'overuse'. Price was cruising until the 8th inning. He was only at 89 pitches. There was no reason to have someone warming up to start the inning, 'just in case'. There was no indication whatsoever that Price wouldn't be able to get through that inning. Now I agree that he should have gotten someone up after the single following the HR, and he could have used any number of stall tactics to get the reliever ready, but that inning did unfold very, very quickly.

    It's not an excuse, it's an observation.
  8. Kimmi
    A sensible post.

    I have Extra Innings also. They added free MLB.tv to subscribers this year. Have you checked that out? Getting MLB.tv for free is awesome for me because I go out of town a lot during the summer and this allows me to watch games while I'm away. And as SoxHop said, you get to choose your feed. The Os games are still blacked out, so you'll be stuck with Thorne regardless.

    I much prefer a defensive catcher over an offensive one, but I have said many times that the FO reacted rashly in sending Swihart down. I don't want to see Swihart traded, but if he can help bring back a top of the rotation starter, I think it needs to be done.

    The announcers made the point last night that it's usually the 2nd game back from a long road trip (with little sleep the night before) that it really hits the players and they play like zombies. That, coupled with Price on the mound, and we should be able to win this game. Just get it done!
  12. Kimmi
    Great way to start the series. The best news of the game is that ERod looked great. Right on!
  13. Kimmi
    He is awful! He's right up there with Thorne, but luckily, I usually only have to listen to him about 3 times a year.
  14. Kimmi
    Haha. I am very pleased. You go Spud!
  15. Kimmi
    I agree 100%. Pedroia's heroics overshadowed some of the other good things that happened in the game, and Wright's very astute defense should not be overlooked. The same goes with Clay's performance.
  16. Kimmi
    I am not displeased with the trade. I honestly don't know a lot about Abad, but was just noticing his overall numbers.
  17. Kimmi
    Ha. Good one!
  18. Kimmi
    I am good with the moves that Dombrowski made and presumably did not make. He added some pieces that should strengthen our playoff chances this year and next, and he did not gut the farm.
  19. Kimmi
    Beware of Abad's peripherals, which are not very flattering. That said, I have no issue with giving up Light for him.
  20. Kimmi
    I realize that. There are going to be some players who defy the odds, and Edwin might be one of them, but generally speaking, hitters are well into their declining years at age 33.
  21. Kimmi
    Positive game thread mojo! Let's go!
  22. Kimmi
    Perhaps, but I think there were some things going on with Lackey that prompted that move.
  23. Kimmi
    Papi comes through more often in clutch situations simply because he comes through more often overall. He's not a 'clutch' hitter. He's a smart hitter.
  24. Kimmi
    He sure behaved like it.
  25. Kimmi
    Gee, thanks. In addition to the price being outrageous, I still have concerns regarding his tantrum.
