    At least the surging Orioles are leading NYY 7-4 in the 8th.
  2. vegasbob
    Devers can tie it up with a bomb against Roenis Elias. That would be worth a beer or two.
  3. vegasbob
    Ready for a fiesta vs #67 Festa ?? Here comes the rally to win it 11-10
  4. vegasbob
    You mean the opponents aren't all wearing 80's and 90's numbers. That was the common explanation for why ST doesn't matter.

    I think of few of us were looking at a 6-5 or 5-6 road trip for two reasons: No sense of readiness or momentum in the later part of Spring and the usual west coast trip blues. The Dodgers are making Torey Lovullo's Diamondbacks look really bad, so maybe 3 wins in Phoenix will help after splitting with Oakland.

    Certainly a point of discussion given the weak start .
  7. vegasbob
    Another major blown start. Really bad stuff from all the rotation, except Price who hasn't been out yet
  8. vegasbob
    In 14.0 innings to date starters have given up 20 earned runs. And to think the BP was the question mark.
  9. vegasbob
    Giving up a walk to a phat phuque pretend DH after having him down 0-2 is what later costs a big price.

    Sometimes i would rather see Rick Porcello on the mound than some of our other throwers. Today might be one of those, maybe. Maybe not. At least no HR's allowed through one, and Nunez delivered after JDM.
  11. vegasbob
    Lots of credit to Mitch Barnes who looked very sharp in closing this win. Way to go Moreland and Barnes.
  12. vegasbob
    Elias looking like the Elias Sports Bureau. No w e see if Barnes can use less than 25 pitches to close one. My least favorite Red Sox. I will gladly eat crow if he gets it done
  13. vegasbob
    Now we finally get to see Cora's closer of the moment, Mr. Barnes.
  14. vegasbob
    Always liked Mitch Moreland
  15. vegasbob
    JBJr misses a couple, then a simple grounder, leading to Devers out at home Anyone rooting for this guy (JBJr) has a long wait
  16. vegasbob
    Blake gets on base, HBP. !st and 3rd, no outs. Let's see if the Sox can score at least one ,much less 2 making this a real game.
  17. vegasbob
    If we all recall, last year Cora stuck with Nunez in almost all situations over Holt . It must be a homeboy thing
  18. vegasbob
    Thank you Brian Johnson , nice inning
  19. vegasbob
    Nunez was actually thinking although it backfired. The key to the inning was JDM's taking strike 3 after missing two outside corner sliders, with a man on third
  20. vegasbob
    Bases loaded for Nunez ??? What will happenNunez DP's. A total sack of s***, not even running to first just in case. Saving Pedroia back in Ft. Myers will cost them this game, who knows ? Also Styeve Pearces's calf injury is the indicator of the a larger than expected contract producing no returns as he can't play either
  21. vegasbob
    You got two on, what will JDM do this time? He will take 3rd strike
  22. vegasbob
    3 HR's to score 4 runs. Too bad the OBP's aren't in place yet
  23. vegasbob
    Good memory. Tom Brewer , in addition to being a starting pitcher, was a frequent pinch runner for the Sox
  24. vegasbob
    Yeah, you are right but as so many said ST doesn't count and the "regulars " would turn it on against a team that will not finish at .500. The Red Sox sucked in ST and were/are in a team wide slump going back a week or ten days. It will take a few more games to come alive. Cold , wet Oakland isn't the place to turn it around.
  25. vegasbob
    It does appear that Cora did soft pedal the workload for all in ST, probably due to the long run through the WS last year. And the fact that it is a marathon, not a sprint. With Sale's pitch count , we will get to see some of the bullpen questions start getting addressed tonight. Like a few others here, I think this 11 game road trip will result in a slow start with a 5-6 or 6-5 record. Not a disaster nor an omen of things to come but just a sense they are still getting up to baseball speed. LOB means Left On Base. Then Encarnacion puts another silver bullet in his bat. Hated that guy for years
