Since it is hard to talk about the game, what does anyone think a 2004 Red Sox World Series T-shirt that was signed on the field after game 4 by Big Papi, Varitek, Ellis Burks and Bronson Arroyo would fetch on EBay or at auction?
A year or so ago, there were those who were complaining about Nate's contract. Those voices have been silenced. The way he has pitched this year, he is a bargain.
Every game from here on out is a "must win" if the Sox want to make the play offs. I just don't see a lot of intensity from most of the players. Too many easy outs without really battling the pitcher.
They got Schwarber and Sale after the deadline. Robles has been so so. That should have been enough but between Covid and careless and uninspired baseball by the other players, they are where they are now.
