  1. We have some decent pitchers on the farm and some pitchers returning from the DL soon, so it does olook like Walden's days are numbered in Boston-- for now.
  2. If anybody can come back strong from a serious injury like his, it's Pedey. What a boost he could be. The biggest plus might be that with Nunez moving to utility, our bench may finally be strong enough to fully benefit from Cora's "rest 'em often" philosophy.
  3. I loved that, too. It might have ended up costing him a perfect game, but he did what he needed to do.
  4. He's up to 0.0 now in fWAR.
  5. 8 guys on the DL, HRam banged up and Price day-to-day for who knows how long? DL List Bogaerts Pomeranz Pedroia Wright Thornburg Poyner Maddox Hernandez
  6. ...but is on a 630 PA pace of 36 HRs and 144 RBIs.
  7. No. I'm glad Kelly was on the mound. 1) He throws the hardest 2) We won't miss him all that much My point was one plunk at 98 mph was not really enough. Spikes up has to be deterred.
  8. These "big three" have carried the offense, and the rest are pretty well bunched up between .592 and .733: 1.111 Boget (DL) 1.085 Betts .964 HRam (leads league in RBI with 12) .733 Beni .725 JMart (10 rbi) .715 Devers (10 rbi) .714 Nunez .607 JBJ .602 Moreland .592 Vaz .348 Holt .286 Leon
  9. Yes, and who better to start getting hot against but the Skankees?
  10. Big win for such an early game.
  11. Just got caught up on tape delay. Excellent game by Porcello! Stepping it up! Good to see JBJ coming to life.
  12. Not with spikes up and aimed at your planted leg.
  13. I've always respected you, harmony, but I have to say this is bull crap. Holt reacted appropriately. Kelly's only mistake was to not throw it at 100 mph. Vaz saw what was coming after Austin threw down his bat, and he was slow to protect his pitcher.
  14. I have more respect for Kelly after this than I ever had. I only wish the radr gun hit 100 on the pitch.
  15. Beni deserves a longer look vs lefties than he's gotten at the ML level and his minor league sample size vs lefties isn't all that big either, but certainly he needs to be monitored. 2015 A (short) .827 vs LHPs (32 ABs)\ .990 vs RHPs (92) A (full) .782 vs LHPs (14) 1.066 vs RHPs (60) 2016 A+ 1.069 vs LHPs (32) .945 vs RHPs (103) AA .900 vs L (43) .865 vs R (194)
  16. Okay, if you can't understand what I'm asking, I'll move on. It's not a big deal anyways.
  17. The choice was JBJ vs HRam-Moreland and JBJ vs Nunez assuming they were all hitting equally poorly when the time came to trade one to upgrade the offense. Yes, if we traded Moreland, he's a good fielder; you made your point, but you fail to respond to my point. If Moreland-HRam, Nunez and JBJ are all at .575 in July and you want to upgrade the offense, why trade the guy that most weakens the defense? You are losing the same offense with each guy. Look, I realize it's a hypothetical scenario, but your point was based on the whole team struggling on offense and what to do. Of course, if JBJ is at .500 and Moreland and Nunez are at .650, then I can understand trading JBJ although I still wouldn't under those conditions).
  18. Although it may seem like all I care about is OPS, it's not true.
  19. Yes, but CF is more important than 1B and trading JBJ weakens 2 OF positions not one (LF & CF).
  20. I'd have chosen these options in this order: 1) PH Swihart 2) Leave Holt up- his L-R splits are about equal. 3) PH Beni 4) PH Leon
  21. If you are going to "plan 4-5 days ahead" on giving guys a day of rest, why plan on giving Beni a day off vs a RHP (Tanaka)? Plan on giving him a day off vs a lefty!
  22. I totally agree. Nice touch with the "change-up" comment.
  23. "I had no pain. I have no pain," Price told reporters (via ESPN.com), describing the issue as a lack of feeling in his fingertips on a particularly cold night in Boston. "Even when I came in and did all the stuff with the doctors, I still had no pain." Price said the hand "thawed out" enough to throw a few balls against a wall in the training room after he was examined by team doctors. He was seen in the dugout by the end of the Red Sox's testy 10-7 loss. His next scheduled start is Monday against the Orioles in the Red Sox's annual early start on Patriots' Day. "He's going to come back [Thursday], most likely play catch and go from there," manager Alex Cora said. "But it seems like he should be fine as of now."
  24. If they need Velazquez to start a game, it will be 5 days from now, when Price misses his next start.
