  1. I like the fact that they now have a lefty besides Johnson in the pen, but I do question this move.
  2. Scott's been up a few times over the past couple years.
  3. Not sure I like the move with Scott here. Tough spot to make your season debut.
  4. Neither starter can, and that's good. Neither deserved a loss on their record (not that that really matters).
  5. Not so much this year, but he has had a surprising number of those in his years with the Red Sox.
  6. That knee has taken a lot of speed away from him. He probably beats that play last season.
  7. He's had a chance to score 3 tonight and the two big RBI guys have failed to get him in.
  8. Well, none of the first 3 pitches were ones you really want to swing at with less than 2 strikes. For that matter, neither was the 4th one.
  9. Mookie needs to be moving here. He should be able to get a decent jump off the reliever.
  10. Yep. They're giving him an out; let him bunt it. Mauer is no threat to beat it out. Very poor execution on Sale's part.
  11. It's like clockwork, Sox go down and out come Natick and d-money.
  12. I guess Sale couldn't stand the prosperity.
  13. d-money doesn't quite get the concept that other teams sometimes have good pitchers whose job it is to actually win games for their teams.
  14. Sorry, stepped away; it's raining here and the dumb dog finally decided to come in. Missed the play.
  15. This is shaping up like Sale's outing against the White Sox. Edit - Never Mind
  16. Not a matter of right or wrong, but Cora's opinion is the only one that counts.
  17. Cause that's what teams always do and it's still going to take the next hitter a little while to move from the on-deck circle to the batters box. You'd rather Sale stand there with the ball for 30 seconds?
  18. Just remember, the Red Sox always do well the first 18 years of a century
  19. He’s an athlete, no doubt about that. Had he chosen a different sport, he probably would be a great tight end (at worst, a left tackle) in football or a power forward in pumpkin chucking.
  20. I agree Tampa and Toronto are halfway decent, middle of the road type teams. Baltimore is as bad as they look. That 16-38 (.296 was winning percentage) record against everyone else equates to a 48 win season if they didn’t play the Yankees and Sox. That would still get them into one of the worst records in the modern era (since 1900). Add in their record against the big 2 and they are teetering on 62 Mets territory.
  21. That’s why I said I am in no way comparing them. Somebody said Devers had a rough day defensively; all I was pointing out is even the best have tough days once in a while. I think Devers can be a serviceable third baseman but that probably will be his ceiling.
  22. Bad days happen, offensively and defensively. It doesn't matter who you are. I am in no way comparing them, but Brooks Robinson made 3 errors in a game at least a couple of times. There was one game when he made 3 in one inning. As I said, those games happen. Devers has been trending upward defensively from what I've seen. He is far from a finished product. I doubt he will ever be in the conversation for a gold glove, but he is getting better.
