    I don’t see how these guys can lay off pitches that close.
  2. illinoisredsox
    Cease has had a huge part in that today.
  3. illinoisredsox
    Did you and Fred switch screen names?
  4. illinoisredsox
    Cease is nasty today. Looking at his game logs, he’s either been very good or very bad; unfortunately for the Sox, today is one of the former. Better get him this inning, because that Padre bullpen looms in the 6th.
  5. illinoisredsox
    True, but do you seriously think if he’d had him swing away, it would have made any difference?
  6. illinoisredsox
    Not sure what that means; steal was the play there and the Padres made a play (major league players sometimes do that); Bogaerts got away with pushing him off. The bunts were the right call but Hamilton was too stupid to know what the word sacrifice means.
  7. illinoisredsox
    I’m not going to blame him on the steal; Bogaerts got away with a veteran trick. There was no excuse for the bunts. It was utter stupidity to try to bunt for a base hit (3 times).
  8. illinoisredsox
    He should be sent down for sheer stupidity on that AB.
  9. illinoisredsox
    Because you can’t use Whitlock and Chapman every night.
  10. illinoisredsox
    Nice rant, but he’s safe if Bogaerts doesn’t push him off the base (which is against the rules).
  11. illinoisredsox
    Yep. OB and Merloni said their pen was excellent, but what we’ve seen tonight is sick.
  12. illinoisredsox
    Hope Estrada’s done for the night.
  13. illinoisredsox
    Nah, overall he’s been fine for a middle to back of the pen reliever. This was his 13th game and the 4th time he’s been scored on. It’s only the second time he’s allowed 2 or more runs. He had nothing tonight; it happens. No need to worry unless it becomes a regular occurrence.
  14. illinoisredsox
    It also could simply be a case of putting it together for one year. See Porcello, Rick.
  15. illinoisredsox
    Still need a #4 in the playoffs unless you plan on guys going on 3 days rest.
  16. illinoisredsox
    Yup. It’s the ball park. He’s 7-0 at Petco with a 1.99 ERA, a WHIP of .788 and a K/BB of 6. He’s been a little more pedestrian on the road: 4-3, 3.67 ERA, 1.136 WHIP, K/BB of 3
  17. illinoisredsox
    To some here, must win every inning.
  18. illinoisredsox
    Sounds like a guy trying to get released; who can blame him.
  19. illinoisredsox
    TYPM has an almost pathological hatred of Cora, so take whatever he says about Alex with a lot of salt. As for Breslow, I agree with you on the computer model statement but he kinda has to stick to the owners salary restrictions if he wants to keep what I’m sure is a pretty high paying job.
  20. illinoisredsox
    I disagree, it’s not horse hockey. It’s one of mule fritters, buffalo bagels or pony pucks.
  21. illinoisredsox
    I’m more concerned about what they gave up for May.,
  22. illinoisredsox
    Might be a slight upgrade over Fitts for the #5 slot in the rotation, but hardly a big difference making move.
  23. illinoisredsox
    Who knows with Henry? Maybe he got excited about the idea not having to pay anything and changed his mind on the focus. Per Spotrac, the Sox are $41,000 under the first CBT level; no idea if that includes Matz or not.
  24. illinoisredsox
    I think Breslow’s only worried about it because Henry says CB should be worried about it. I’m not a big Breslow guy, but he’s not making these types of decisions.
  25. illinoisredsox
    They've already announced Crochet will be skipped on Friday; nothing wrong, just a preplanned break. And before you start screaming they are babying him, it's not unusual for teams to do that with pitchers who have thrown a lot of innings, and August is often a month they do it in.
