  1. But, JF is happy they were aggressive, right?
  2. If we get a clean-up hitting 1Bman and bring Nunez back, that could be all we need to squeeze out HRam, unless we end up needing Nunez at 2B or elsewhere a lot.
  3. Totally agree. Even with all the injuries this staff has gone through, and now the Pedey, Nunez and Betts health issues, it looks like all the pieces might all come back just in time for the playoff run.
  4. You're probably right, but he might be stretched out enough for 5 innings in 16 days from now. Also, we have the day off after game 4, so the pen can all be used, if needed.
  5. I'm not sure 9 days off is good for Sale either, despite me thinking he probably is fatigued.
  6. I'm not counting Price out of the #4 starter conversation either. We're more than two weeks away (Oct 9th) from the 4th game of the playoffs.
  7. Yeah, it's not a "sure thing", and maybe I've been too optimistic all year, but this team is too good to choke this away.
  8. If we have someone equal or better to HRam to play, I doubt a union grievance will carry much weight, despite what pace he's on next year.
  9. Good point, and he's already showed he is unfazed by high pressure. I still think HRam has a chance to shine.
  10. HRam and Betts are perhaps our best hopes at showing some dominant power in the playoffs.
  11. Like all in for Price? Or, all in for Sale?
  12. Yes, it's no coincidence that the 3 rings we got involved these key elements: 2004: Pedro, Schilling & Foulke 2007: Beckett, Schilling & Papelbon 2013: Lester, Lackey & Uehara 2 aces and a top closer goes a long way. Longer than having 9 bash brothers in the line-up and no pitching.
  13. Just about every DD trade has looked good (so far).
  14. I don't want to jinx anything, but we've had this thing wrapped up for a week.
  15. I can't see DD not going all in for a big bat clean-up hitter. It is so clearly our weakest point.
  16. You don't think we'd be up by 15, if we were leading the league in runs scored right now? Okay, maybe it was a bit hyperbolic, but we'd clearly have clinched by now. BTW, our run differential is now 139. If we scored enough to lead league in runs scored this year, we'd have to add about 80 runs (or actually take that away from those ahead of us) making our differential about + 220.
  17. Funny how 3 starts ago, people were taking about him being our #2 or 3.
  18. ERod's got his ERA below 4.00 now. He's gotta be our number 3 now. Game 1 Sale Game 2 Pom day off Game 3 ERod Game 4 Porcello/Price if up 2-1 or Sale (on 3 days rest) if down 2-1 day off Game 5 Sale (or Pom, if Sale was used in game 4)
  19. If you're not going to go in hard, then just stop at 2nd. Plus, the play is in front of you.
  20. Nobody expected that, even with the loss of Papi.
  21. Agreed. Had we scored 100 less runs and the rest of the league wasn't going bananas, we'd be ahead by 15 games right now.
  22. Yes, totally facetious. I'm the self appointed leader of the expose the excessive boneheadedness club.
  23. ERod has the 3 slot locked up.
  24. No, apparently this isn't "boneheadedness", it's aggressiveness that is encouraged by JF & Co.
  25. The "M's"?
