He's a Popper Upper, in fact the King of the Popper Uppers. In summary, Benintendi sucks.
-
A BP where your 3 best ( ? Barnes, Workman, Brewer ?) are reliant on a curve ball . What could go wrong ?
-
That poke was NOTHING, I tell you, NOTHING. Just warming up. Big lead, no sweat, LOL
-
Need 9 outs with a 6 run lead. Sounds good to me. At the first walk, I'll shift gears.
-
Just an amazing turnaround and has kept the BA/OPS up in a high range for catchers over an extended period.
-
Stonehands Stuart. great HR hitter though
-
Price, in or out for opening the 7th inning at 92 pitches??
-
Good points, Jung. Please note that a major announcement by the Sox was that a guy on the 60 day IL was going to be your closer, when he was ready. The season ends September 30, except for playoff teams.
-
I saw a shot of Josh Taylor and jumped to the wrong conclusion it was Josh Smith . Apologies
-
Put another way, Moreland and Pearce are $13 million dollars worth of excess baggage at this point. Eovaldi, not far behind
-
And I support your assessment. Chavis has , in fact, contributed, and done whatever he has been asked. JBJr is on one of his hot streaks and MC is slipping somewhat but that doesn't take away from his presence when vets like Pearce and Moreland cannot get on the field. You can't help the team from the whirlpool. MC is not guilty of that felony.
-
Moreland. like Pearce (for better or worse), and Eovaldi are topics of discussion, not actual players of baseball.
-
if Price can continue at this pace, he will get 7 in the book and the pen is "rested" by all reasonable allowances. 2 innings. Smith/Workman ??
-
The Nunez thing is of interest, SS. My real point is that MC for all his big bops is just not ready for the long haul. I hope he becomes that guy, but not yet there.
-
Ted, give Jackson his shot this year. If his boys do not win the WS, then there will be an entire off season to autopsy the corpse. Only one team wins . The Red Sox did it in 2004, 2007, 2013, 2018.
-
One of those SLOOOOW games , but with a nice lead, where it will take forever to get through Price's start and to the BP, so we can see how they are doing. How long before JBJR's BA/OPS exceeds Chavis's ? I will venture July 10th for a crossover moment.
-
Wow ! That's a different start to a game and most welcome
-
Here's a key stat for you : 44-40, and 2 out of the #2 WC. The statistical debates are interesting to a point, but now the team must find a way to win 5 of the next 6, against 2 sub .400 teams, and be in better shape for the post A-S game run. From July 12 to 31, there are 19 games with one off day (July 29). 12 of those 19 games are the Dodgers, Yankees and Rays. Any personnel changes will be final by then and you will be able to call the remainder of this season with a lot more clarity . The 2019 Red Sox will be in the hunt or they will have become baseball jerky, fully hung out to dry.

I think it's wonderful that an announcement that Nate Eovaldi can generate 72 comments on whether it's a good idea or not. However, I haven't seen Eo on a mound in more than a couple months. Can the MF at least get his arm healthy enough to pitch the damn ball and see what happens ? Nothing but speculation about a guy who can't get on the bump this year.
-
With 6 to go to the A-S break, against sub .400 teams, a 5-1 result would not be asking too much. If this bunch is going to make a move, now would be a good time to start. I think too many are taking the approach that a WC slot (#1 or #2) is still a given. If it is, we haven't seen it on the field . Time to show up, 2019 Red Sox.
-
Or ,ore reliable, predictable starters who show up and do professional work for 6 innings+,

The umpire calls Betts last 2 pitches , one a ball, one a strike. They were identical. Problem is Betts was looking for the walk -

Is that a pulse I detect in the zombies of the walking dead? The back end of the lineup doesn't quit. When you score 13 one day and 8 the next , don't you expect to win one or the other or both ?? -

The Sox will now have lost every game in their second half schedule, and be up to 3 out of the second WC.
