    In mookie's comments on his July turnaround, which has been great, he himself said that everything he had tried earlier in the season to adjust were the wrong things. So it tells me one thing or another. Cora and the coaches couldn't figure out where Mookie was going wrong, or they were coaching him correctly but the MVP didn't listen and adapt. For a big time trade deadline improvement, DD should trade Brasier to the Dodgers for JDM's hitting guru coach.

    After Baltimore, which should be a sweep along with Eovaldi's return in a new role, there are the 14 TBR/NYY games that will reshape this inconsistent season. If the Sox get 9-5 from the Rays and Yanks, then the Wild Card will be looking more realistic. 7-7 or less will be treading water or near drowning.

    Combine a highly effective 7 inning Sale with a miracle closer named Eovaldi and it could get interesting, especially if Mookie's current trend is real and continues. The hitting lineup finally makes sense with Betts-Devers-Bogaerts. JDM improving would be a huge add. Scoring first and running up pitch counts on the other team has worked before. One concern is that a .667 winning % to season's end results in 96 wins, probably a high water mark for this team currently at a .546 mark. That might make the WC or just miss.

    You haven't covered a guy who is 1 for 4 every day at exactly .250

    The got it done and slayed at least monkey that was all over Sale's back, so good for us.

    Hernandez with a 2.21 WHIP due to his 7 walks and 7 hits in little over 6 innings

    The Kid was good in the 40's and 50's but hasn't done crap since .
  8. vegasbob
    You are correct on those three, especially if Mookie will hit .300+ the rest of the way. If JDM gets fixed, it would be incredible. One thing on JD that came from the recent Fox broadcast was that JD's hitting guru now works for the Dodgers and his absence may be affecting up Martinez's adjustments to his swing. I didn't get the guys name and JD lost his number too.

    Where's Waldo comes through after a little blip

    Grab your socks and jocks, here comes the BP trying to secure Sales most excellent win opportunity
  11. vegasbob
    Baby Face is carrying this team on his back, like Julio D used to in 2018. Great performance . Now Sale should get his win.
  12. vegasbob
    Any resemblance between 2018 and 2019 performances are strictly coincidental

    Although Pannone may well blow up here, he got into the 5th inning on 50 pitches. Sale has 89 through 5, probably good for only 6 innings (new MLB standard). The BP will be needed for 9 outs.
  14. vegasbob
    Travis and Leon come through. The rest should be embarrassed
  15. vegasbob
    Mr Popper Upper strikes, no, pops up again
  16. vegasbob
    Another high ERA LH'er stiffing the Sox in Fenway. No wonder Sale can't win--his pals do not hit for him.
  17. vegasbob
    I may be wrong but isn't this the inning (3rd) where Sale tends to wander ?
  18. vegasbob
    Our guys do not even have warning track power today
  19. vegasbob
    I thought for a long time #7 in the lineup was a much better role for Beni than the top 2 slots this year. He has no real pressure to be the stud he isn't. Just get a high OBP and be ready to run.
  20. vegasbob
    OB is orgasmic once again as Chris Sale builds up his K numbers. Sale doing well so far, typical no support despite RISP in first
  21. vegasbob
    When was the last time a batter swung at a Red Sox high fastball on a 2 strike count ?
  22. vegasbob
    Fairly amazing as he does not even hit his outs very hard. Not a total disaster but drifting lower by each game.
  23. vegasbob
    Sandy Leon's boy had a good first inning
  24. vegasbob
    0-2 to 3-2, way to go Eduardo
  25. vegasbob
    Erod with the 3-2 count on everyone working for him. Probably good for 5 innings
