  1. Red Sox are the winningest team in baseball with 70. Orioles have lost 72 already. That's hard to do when virtually all teams should win 60 games. O's might not get 50 with Machado gone
  2. First innings are starting slowly for Betts, Beni, JDM since the A-S break.
  3. It's the equivalent of 2 games at about 6 innings, so combined with maybe one skipped or deferred start in August, it may start making a difference in late September. Given Sale's slender body type he should be better able to handle the endurance part than the big body guys. Hasn't seemed to be the case historically, however.
  4. Apparently , it is primarily a children's viral disease that he may have contracted while visiting a youth camp while on the DL
  5. Simpletons do like to take the bait, what can you say
  6. I am positive that as a MLB relief pitcher Joe Kelly regrettably has become an ass clown walking 2, given a 9-1 lead. If this is playoff caliber pitching , I am wrong
  7. Sorry but seen too much over the years to be a sophomore cheerleader for professional athletes
  8. How the heck is Nunez supposed to play with you on his back ? You are a splinter in his finger, which Eduardo is giving you
  9. OK, being positive, I would really like to see Joe Kelly be effective today and show what he can do. The Sox need him to be there with good command and high 90's stuff. If he throws 50% curveballs, I will throw up.
  10. Workman fields like Price but quick reaction by Nunez and Lin stop the damage. A nice tidy 22 pitch inning from the bullpen ended by a base running mistake by the Tiger's McCann
  11. Brandon Workman's ERA is still better than Matt Barnes even after spoiling Sale's attempt to lead a team shutout., but no story here folks, keep moving.
  12. A sweep in Balt would be very welcome , then 3 of 4 from the Twins at Fenway followed by a 2 game win over the Phillies. Keep the pressure on NYY
  13. Notice how the top of the lineup comes alive after the game is pretty much decided. Nothing but stat padders in the 1-3 positions. Looking to hook some literalist here into a debate
  14. He's thinking, " I wonder if the plane will have WiFi so I can get a couple hours of Fortnite before Baltimore ?" Price doesn't think, he just overreacts.
  15. Tomorrow's headline in the Globe: Stumpf Stumped by Bett's Bat
  16. Sale does what he is supposed to do and win following a loss, this time with good support. Let's see if the vaunted bullpen can get the second shutout in 3 games, unlike Sale's opening start in Tampa way back in March. Just enjoying pulling some legs here in a potential Sunday win, pressuring the Yankees to match
  17. We all have players we like to see in the game, Fred Lynn being one of those, and Mark Bellhorn as well. Just not feeling it with Matt, but obviously wish him and the team well throughout the season and playoffs leading to a ring. Hopefully Sale will have some gas in the tank in October and that Barnes doesn't give everyone gas , lol
  18. Is it the 42.5% of the entire teams errors that bother you or the 27% K's ( not that unusual this year, is only 1 behind JDM for team lead) or his .291 OBP or his baserunning ? On the other hand his 48 rbi's and 14 HR's in the first half were OK for a virtual rookie. The .240 BA exceeds the CF'er and all catchers and Pedroia's .091
  19. If hydration is important to musle performance and brain function, why are baseball players always spitting ? It used to be the tobacco but now its seeds and gum making the saliva glands overactive
  20. Top 3 guys in the lineup, a combined 0-9 on a hitter's day.
  21. Yes for JBJr , the bottom feeders are giving Sale the gift of a win opportunity.
  22. See my comment on the baserunning fools on that last play. Are they ignoring Feebles or thinking way too much ?
  23. Also a pretty smart baserunner on the ship of fools baserunning team
  24. OK, I will concede to the stats presented by the Matt Barnes Fan Club and acknowledge his great contribution to the Sox success this year. But one final note, Matt Barnes will be the losing pitcher in the last game played by the RedSox in 2018 , which has bigger implications than his stats .
  25. Just keeps on hitting, now 2-2 today
