    4-3 on the trip; they lost 2 of 3 in Washington.

    When you’ve got nothing except a fastball, major league hitters are going to get to you eventually.

    He’s received no help defensively, but he’s definitely not on his A game tonight.
  4. illinoisredsox
    You could see that coming as soon as it that ball went foul.

    We’ve seen this movie before.

    Like I said above, if it doesn’t hit the base, it may have been a bunt double.
  7. illinoisredsox
    He’s had a rough last 10 starts.
  8. illinoisredsox
    Base may have prevented a bunt double.

    FYI, 10 is tied with the Cubs for the FEWEST in the majors. The Sox lead MLB with a 78% success rate. It’s sort of a mixed stat; the two teams who have the most blown saves are the Orioles and the Dodgers.

    Closers need regular work. They get rusty without it. OTOH, he’s come back really well since I posted that.

    Torres has me more nervous than Judge
  12. illinoisredsox
    It is metaphysically impossible for him.
  13. illinoisredsox
    Jansen hasn’t pitched in 5 days. It’s showing
  14. illinoisredsox
    Agree. Looked safe to me and even if he wasn’t, not enough to overturn it IMO. Only thing I can figure is they somehow determined that his foot was over but not on the plate.
  15. illinoisredsox
    I’m shocked.
  16. illinoisredsox
    First hit was a leadoff.
  17. illinoisredsox
    Safe.
  18. illinoisredsox
    Only if the game is out of hand in a bad way. Otherwise let sleeping dogs lie.

    This myth has to stop. The Sox offered him a Qualifying Offer, which was worth roughly $19.5M. He turned it down. They then offered him a multi year deal that was supposedly worth more in AAV than the one he ultimately accepted with Texas. He turned that down as well. The Sox moved on. I would have loved to have seen him back in Boston, but it’s never good practice to bid against yourself.

    I only see 4 possible outcomes (excluding rainouts).

    Had one like that last winter. Completed a brand new 1000 piece puzzle but one piece wasn’t in the box. There were 1000 pieces in the box though; there was a duplicate of one.

    Sounds a bit like the old Connie Mack theory of club ownership. When Mack owned and managed the Philadelphia Athletics, his ideal season was to finish a very close second, thereby maximizing revenue by keeping attendance up but then getting to say I don’t have to give you guys a raise, you didn’t win. As manager, Mack was in a position to influence game outcomes if need be. Not exactly the same, but close.

    Yep. Plus the Nats have been playing pretty well the past couple weeks (I think they are 8-4 or 9-4 over that stretch). Win tomorrow and take the series. Win series the rest of the way and they will make the playoffs.
  24. illinoisredsox
    How many games in each of those spots though?
  25. illinoisredsox
    Wong had an awfully heavy workload while McGuire was out. They are probably getting back to a more reasonable 6-4 or 7-3 split for them.
