  1. I do; not for “the play” but because of his utter suckitude offensively in that series. I think half his ABs ended innings and a lot of those were with men on.
  2. Pretty sure that’s an automatic out under the new rules. He was out once, he should have been out again at third; Dodgers finally got him.
  3. Not until between 2 and 6 on November 1.
  4. They showed it and said it.
  5. Knew Brasier was in trouble as soon as they put up the graphic about him being one of two pitchers not to allow a run in 7 or more innings in the postseason.
  6. Dodgers have had a lot of ground ball hits tonight.
  7. Bogaerts should have been on second on that pitch in the dirt; probably cost another run.
  8. He did outlast Sale. Sale faced 19 batters, Kershaw faced 20.
  9. Kershaw does have an impressive curve ball; that thing can be nasty.
  10. He’s been pretty consistent for both pitchers. Strike zone is tight but it’s going both ways.
  11. Poor base running by Beni there
  12. Kershaw starting to dial it in.
  13. At most and that’s if he really cuts down the pitch count. He’s at what, 75 through 3?
  14. He really only pitched 3 months this year. Only 17 innings after the ASB plus now 14 in October.
  15. Back in the day it would have been. Now you want ground balls to the “normal” shortstop position.
  16. Not controlling nor commanding the fastball.
  17. Slide in feet first and ass hat won’t block the base anymore.
  18. The Red Sox always do well the first 18 years of a century.
  19. I would assume that. Beni is coming full bore in, JBJ isn't going ot get there to back him up all that quickly and Kemp, a very fast guy, was on first.
  20. #4 does for me. My guess is that they will each sit 1 of the 3 potential road games, with who depending on the pitching match-ups. Obviously, either Beni or JBJ would sit against Kershaw.
  21. I hate the idea of Betts at 2nd. 4 reasons: 1) The Altuve interference play in Game 4 2) The Kemp play in Game 4 (I acknowledge that at that point of the game Betts would probably go to RF to replace JDM anyway). 3) The catch on Bregman in Game 5 JDM comes no where near to making ANY of those plays. And the biggest reason I don't want Mookie at 2nd: 4) The Machado factor if it's the Dodgers. He's already ended/significantly affected one Sox second sackers career; I do not want him adverseky affecting a guy who's on a path to being one of the best Sox ever.
  22. Stanley pitched 8+ innings in relief in a game twice; he went more than 7 two more times and 6+ at least one other time. As you said, the bullpen was used a lot differently back then.
  23. So was Lackey v Verlander in 2013. Final was 1-0 Sox. You never know.
  24. Barnes also pitched in Game 3. That may have factored in, especially given his lack of pitching in September.
  25. Are we really going to have to rely on Hembree to close this?
