    There are 6 possible outcomes for the Sox-Yankees series. Most likely is 2-1 Sox but Bello must get the one tonight , trusting one or more hitters show up, a rare event in itself . a 2-1 or 3-0 outcome in Yankees favor would not help the cause.

    I'm going with 4 . Is there any scenario where Sale could be traded in the loooong upcoming off season ?
  3. vegasbob
    Perhaps the cumulative effect of bullpen overuse since Day 1 of 2023 ? Exacerbated by the July stretch of missing 3 starters and doing nothing about it , except hire a private bus from Worcester to Boston and back daily.

    Let's see; 2021, 2022, 2023 rehabs. Sort of tells the story in only a few digits ?

    There is a chance some of them are not terribly smart or well educated . Many of the baseball talented Dominicans drop out of school after 6-8 years to enter the baseball academies which are supposed to continue their education in baseball and life. Where do you think the emphasis goes? Rafael Devers has been in the Sox organization for 10 years, since he was 16. I'm sure he understands baseball English but will only speak officially through an interpreter. On the other hand, Ortiz continues his career in broadcasting.

    Drop the series in D.C., never dominant in any game, the one win on a fluke WP/PB run. BP explosion in final 2. More sloppy play and baserunning contributed to the 2 losses. Score 50% of the runs in 1 inning out of 27

    McGuire, Devers, Story leave 2 on in the 9th. . The GS and Dever's 2 run HR were just stat dressing.
  8. vegasbob
    McGuire can't hit a flyball, much less a basehit.
  9. vegasbob
    Downs has had (2023) 9 PA's, 2 hits, 4 runs, 4 walks, and a 1.067 OPS
  10. vegasbob
    Nationals get the leadoff man on in 6 of 8 innings or is it 7. Played with fire all day, got burned
  11. vegasbob
    Time for a Reyes HR now.
  12. vegasbob
    Have to get 2 runs right here, don't wait untiil 9th
  13. vegasbob
    It will only sting more if the Sox still drop this game . They must now pull it out which means some pitcher needs to shutdown 9 outs while the hitters remain ready to rip

    Holy guacamole, Devers takes a hint from Urias and blasts a really long ball. Bloom immediately inquires about the availability of Garcia this off season.
  15. vegasbob
    Urias matches Reyes Granny but in a wasted effort.
  16. vegasbob
    Well, Murphy has achieved 2 outs so far. Yes, 3 more runs but who is counting at this stage
  17. vegasbob
    Devers caught looking, Story bouncing the ball on the ground. What is new here?
  18. vegasbob
    Whitlock and Winckowski , at least their last names begin with a W . Sox about to go down to another sub .500 team. There was a period earlier this year when this team was just not even interesting. With all the big names back, they have found that level again.
  19. vegasbob
    Total horseshit play by Devers. But Sale walked the leadoff hitter Downs who then stole 2nd, went to 3rd on a crappy throw by Wong and ties the game on an error by Devers. Nothing changes with this team and it is not a team looking better in the stretch.
  20. vegasbob
    How did Jeter Downs wind up hitting .250 with a .821 OPS ? That walk by Sale was his 6th AB of the year.
  21. vegasbob
    Devers has definitely struggled in his last 15 games with 1 HR and 3 rbi's while OPS is below .800. He needs to find an answer if the Sox will make run over the next 13 games . Picking better pitches , and hitting those in the zone would help.
  22. vegasbob
    Good for Casas and the Sox. Yeah, sit him vs LH'ers .
  23. vegasbob
    Corbin induces 2 DP balls, only 1 completed, in 1st to kill the leadoff single. Devers is not sharp
  24. vegasbob
    No argument that an amazing set of sweeps or near sweeps will help but you also have to win a majority of the other games too. Like today Thinking of 5 or 6 of 7 vs Astros is a strategy called hope.
  25. vegasbob
    A series win will help the lost opportunity last night for a nice comeback effort. Sale needs to be on his game, which Paxton was overall. The Sox need to play out at a .600 clip over the final 42 to catch the Jays, assuming they go .500 over their final 40.
