    True; probably too soon to go back to back with him.
  2. illinoisredsox
    Seriously, adding a piece or 2 wasn’t going to fix the team. Unless/until the starting pitching figures something out, it wasn’t going to matter.
  3. illinoisredsox
    Yep. Like I said, later on give Eovaldi an inning to see if he can get some sharpness. Hernandez an inning or two for experience. Ditto Taylor. We know what the others gave (or don’t have).
  4. illinoisredsox
    Porcello can be his own long man tonight. Use Eovaldi late to get some work in.

    You have to have stuff of value to get value; lack of moves is as much about the barrenness of the Sox farm system as anything else. They couldn’t plug one hole without creating another. Example, you trade Beni for a bull pen piece and backfill with who?
  6. illinoisredsox
    You determined Taylor is not a ML quality pitcher from throwing to 1 batter? I don’t understand why you are here and not on the staff of some MLB team.
  7. illinoisredsox
    When did Toronto or Baltimore pass us in the East?
  8. illinoisredsox
    It wasn't a pop up, so I guess it goes down as a soft line drive (radio guys described it as a very soft liner).
  9. illinoisredsox
    Well, if nothing else, they've at least turned the line-up over so that Devers and Bogaerts will hit in the 9th (or earlier).
  10. illinoisredsox
    Just my probably uninformed observation, but it seems like Vaz hits better with no one on.
  11. illinoisredsox
    Puig's Indian debut may be delayed by a couple games. He's still in the game (or was) and got into a bench clearing brawl. Apparently some decent punches were thrown.
  12. illinoisredsox
    Sox supposedly talking to Arizona about Andrew Chafin.
  13. illinoisredsox
    Don’t bother, they’re here.
  14. illinoisredsox
    I don’t think people realize how hard it is to hit major league pitching period. Put another way, you know the best pitcher you ever saw? He ain’t here. Best kid I ever faced was the #1 pick of the Blue Jays. I had faced him in Babe Ruth ball when he was a tall skinny guy with a curveball. I could hit him. A couple years later we were teammates on an American Legion team. He had added 20 pounds of muscle and was throwing 85. I couldn’t touch him in BP. He made it to AAA but never got the call.

    Chavis has no chance against Chapman.
  16. illinoisredsox
    It looked like a strike until the last second and then the bottom fell out. You have to gear up for 100 off Chapman.
  17. illinoisredsox
    That was nasty.
  18. illinoisredsox
    Oh, the 1-0 pitch. Agree, it got Britton back in the AB. Can’t say for sure it would have gone to 3-0 since the pitch calls probably are different. Didn’t help though.
  19. illinoisredsox
    I think the walks and less than stellar defense has had a lot more to do with it.
  20. illinoisredsox
    You mean the one he fouled off? Way to close to take.
  21. illinoisredsox
    Very likely called strike 3 if he doesn’t swing. Just a nasty pitch by Britton.
  22. illinoisredsox
    Henry’s rich but he’s not THAT rich.
  23. illinoisredsox
    Sale hasn’t been sharp. Yanks hit 3 balls pretty hard before the homer.
  24. illinoisredsox
    It was around 3.3 before his last start; that’s pretty good in today’s game.
  25. illinoisredsox
    He's still only pitched 4 innings since he was cleared to throw, 1 at Pawtucket and 3 with Boston. The stuff is there, the command isn't. That will come with reps. Right now Eovaldi isn't ready to close,
