    Cora has enough to do just running the lineup and game action. I doubt he has the CFO in the dugout, checking the AI to predict the value of a players contribution in a given situation . If asked, Cora might say, just get the last 9 outs and we will all get paid.

    At Koji's best, he was the GOAT. Rivera had a longer career but the Sox seemed able to beat him when needed.

    2021 ? Otherwise known as just in time for CF , unless DD makes a deadline or hot stove move . I'm guessing JBJr will be asking $10MM in 2020 arb. What would the Sox offer ? No more than $8MM, maybe less. JBJr's 2020 cost , unless traded, will be a low priority until Mookie decides to come back or go away .

    I can picture Brock, upon his return from IL, issuing a play me or trade me demand in lieu of assignment, about 10 minutes before he slips and falls injuring himself in the shower

    Well, everyone enjoy Victoria ( Victory) Day, take a laugher whenever you can get one

    With Velasquez brought in to finish this game, I guess Cora is telling Brewer and Thornburg, don't sign any long term leases in Boston

    Beni is PO'ed that Cora made him hit again, even after losing all that weight. Lowered his BA with a weak 1 for 5 in a blowout.

    Based on subsequent AB's by JBJr after his cherry popping HR, have no fear that it indicates a turnaround in his batting. Foul out and very weak kneed K.

    There is a chance that Toronto could be inquiring DD about Tyler and Colten

    Bogey banging , and Rafi raking

    Ryan Brasier looking effective again with some good pitches. His 1-2-3 batters were hitting .091, .148 and .199. And no , he wasn't pitching a simulated BP against the RS bottom third of order

    Walden, Barnes, Workman combined WHIP for 2019 is 2.35 (0.78 aver.) and are 11-1 W-L, ERA's in the 1's and 2.21 for BW. Starters are 10-16, counting Hector V. as a starter. Best ERA is Prices 3.29, all others in the 4's or higher.

    You are killing me with these sharp , fact based, analytic observations
  14. vegasbob
    I don't have the stats ready but chances are the Astros pitching may outrank Toronto's. At least our guys are showing they can pound inferior pitching pretty well.

    Some good, funny comments. That blast did draw Jackie into a HR Derby deadheat with the late Blake Swihart, Sandy Leon and Eduardo Nunez. And Steve Pearce is ony 1 behind that crew.
  16. vegasbob
    Cora does put out some surprises. Bringing Workman as the first reliever after Price's 5 innings , in a near blowout is odd to me. Isn't this more a Brewer/Thornburg spot ? Or even 2+ innings from Weber ?
  17. vegasbob
    Beni looks like he's lost a few pounds. Maybe he was constipated recently. He does love to hit that poptart popup though

    Elvis Luciano , JBjr has left the building. With a walk to Pearce, an HR to JBJr and then another walk to Leon, Elvis completes the ultimate trifecta of poor pitching. This guy must be truly awful
  19. vegasbob
    So the JBJr conversation gets some new fuel ! Good for him and the Sox
  20. vegasbob
    Maybe the asswipe umpires could focus more on ball/strike calls and less on the players comments about their obvious inabilities to see the pitch accurately
  21. vegasbob
    That would be an interesting twist . Lots of variations could be integrated
  22. vegasbob
    What was he looking for with 2 strikes ? Watched come right down the lane , a few inches lower than a middle-middle center cut. He truly has no clue
  23. vegasbob
    Chavis buys back the error. IMO, he is the 2Bman until someone shows they can contribute more to the offense. No offense Pedey, Holt, Nunez or anybody else.
  24. vegasbob
    With 30 MLB teams , somebody has to be the 150th most effective thrower, more or less. EJ is near that level
  25. vegasbob
    Mitch and X picking it up. Now David can refocus
