  1. Since Yoshi won't play the field for Red Sox, and since that leaves only DH or designated pinch hitter. and he cannot run faster than a penguin, his opportunities to display his .725 hitting skills are very limited. compared to the numerous multi position backups
  2. White follows Mona's AB with the 2 out bomb. Thanks. Gunnar. nice error
  3. 2 out, 2 strike pitching. The key to ending an inning. Tolle paid a toll
  4. Certainly agree with your 2nd/3rd points
  5. Let's hit our way to a sweep of the Os. Give Whitlock and Chapman a Sunday off
  6. Looking at the overall AL standings, it is a joke to see the East with 4 of 5 teams above .500, with only the Guardians, Astros, White Sox. above .500. from the rest of the AL All with lesser records than the Red Sox . One or more of these uncompetitive dogs will get a home series for the WC.
  7. At a time when the Sox looked a little shaky, Bennett , Suarez and Gray plus the BP regulars came up with the cure including BtoB shutouts Oddly. Chapman could have upset the post game spread if not for Anthony's frosting on the cake HR in game#1 Yes. it's the O's who had been hot and now are near frozen. Shows what can happen in a short series like the WC. OTOH, just before the Os. the Mariners handed it to Boston in Fenway only to follow up by dropping 3 straight to the Athletics That's beisbol as Bello says
  8. Big chance at a sweep Sunday. Magic number 14 .
  9. He won't get released but will get trded for next to nothing in a bigger deal
  10. This is a weak lineup missing its motor, burdened by Duran, Wong , and Story Duran should be the next to get an extended rest
  11. A couple years ago Wong could throw runners out. Hope he doesn't plan to work as a bouncer after bsseball
  12. Approximately 19 more times or until he actually gets a home run
  13. Bassitt eating them up with the disappearing curve ball
  14. Lack of that tough catch extends Gray into a 20+ pitch first
  15. Duran should have had that ball on the line but he can't see pitches either
  16. So weary of the early inning missed opportunities . Never a hit when needed. Story is the same as he was pre-injury
  17. Excellent observation. Arias is very unlikely to be called up for this very reason. Keep him playing into 2027. Some may not think it but JH is a ticketing a long disruption to 2027 season
  18. Once again, there will be no significant personnel nor contract decisions made until after the new CBA is done and JH knows the ramifications . You might say, why does this include Tracy and the coaches. I think it is partially the fact that Chad was truly a quick reaction INTERIM step when Breslow decided to can Cora . Chad and many players knew each other and Worcester was only about 40 miles down the Pike. He was not vetted and selected from a large pool of candidates . The FO/Ownership wanted to see what he could do in the hot seat. To a fan and observer he has done great in terms of getting results from a group of players who were dead in the water through late June. He is handling the Boston media well . If the injury plagued Sox hold onto the WC slot, and especially if they win a playoff round , then Tracy must be retained. His future is integrally tied to the next 20 games ( just go 10-10 minimum) and beating the NYY'ers at their house. A terrible fade and dumpster dive in September, with a 2 and out at NY or total flop miss of the WC would send Tracy packing. Could never happen ?? Yes, it did in 2011
  19. One swing by Gasper and superb pitching shuts down the Os
  20. Who knew that Orioles pitching was so good that they shut down the strongest hitters in the U. S. ? Disappointing effort by the non hitters
  21. Trevor Story returned and started believing his own BS , but quickly is returning to the Story we knew well
  22. Durbin chasing badly then looking. Going nowhere fast
  23. Wilyer swings to K on a ball inside and up in his eyes. Weary Wilyer fouled off some hittables
  24. Suarez shows up big time. Sox lineup doesn't Missing some runs. Do you trust Chapman in a 1-0 game ?
