  1. Don't let this one get away!
  2. Come on! A HBP woulda sucked!
  3. Come on CK! Get these guys out!
  4. Ballsy call bringing in Sale. I wonder why not let him go 2.
  5. Holt is also a career better hitter vs LHPs (close), so throw out the lefty-righty thing on this one.
  6. .718 is still better than Nunez and Devers and Kinsler.
  7. 7 IP 3 H 1 BB 7 Ks 2 ER
  8. I'd have sat Nunez. I'd also rather have Holt vs a lefty than Kinsler. Holt actually has a slightly better OPS vs lefties. .708 vs LHPs .704 vs RHPs (Kinsler is .446 vs LHPs this year but .851 career.) I would not sit JBJ in Yankee Stadium.
  9. Almost the exact opposite of Sale with Leon. Sale never shakes off a sign.
  10. I've kind of lost faith in Nunez. I'd be fine with Kinsler at 2B and Holt at 3B. We can PH for Kinsler and move Holt to 2B later in the game.
  11. Me too, I'd just assume bench Kinsler or Devers/Nunez to get Holt into the line-up. Keep JBJ in the expansive Yankee Stadium CF.
  12. At least if an ump consistently calls a low outside strike a ball, a pitcher and batter can adjust. Being inconsistent makes it very difficult.
  13. I'm excited about Porcello getting the chance to close out the Yanks. It won't be easy, but after watching Eovaldi step up last night, I'm hopeful Porcello does as well.
  14. JBJ is at .851 since June 24th, not counting the playoffs. He's at .793 since May 20th.
  15. Watching Gardner run down all those long shots last night showed the importance of great CF defense in Yankee Stadium (although Betts in CF is not a bad thing either).
  16. Yes, I remember the time we lost 19-8 to go down 3-0 to the Yanks in 2004... Momentum can change on a dime.
  17. I expected worse, too.
  18. That's probably his longest consistent stretch of his career. (He was also 1.216 his last 6 games of June and .851 his last 14 games of June)
  19. It was just 3-0 when JBJ walked in the 4th and later scored. Did you feel the game was over at that time?
  20. Great post. You can bet teams know what calls some umps get wrong and try to pitch "around" it.
  21. vs LHPs, I prefer Pearce and Holt, but we could play JBJ and keep both. I don't mind benching Devers vs LHPs or one from Nunez or Kinsler.
  22. That does seem to happen to the Sox a lot, especially in the pre-Henry years. Here's a look at this year... (after scoring 9 or more runs- first game scoring 9+ listed, some multiple stretches listed) 10-8-14-7-6-7-10-3-10-9-8-7 10-6-5-5-5-6-6 9-6-7 14-2-5-9-9-4-1-11-1-4-11-3-10-15-7-5-8 10-3-2-1-15-4-4-5-10-10-5-19-5-6 10-7-3 14-9-1-6 9-3-3 11-7-4-3-6-19-3-6-5-10 (last game of season)
