  1. The Red Sox have a lot better chance going 2-12 than they do going 12-2. Come on man!
  2. I’m all for the move, but are you any better with Ort?
  3. The closer is still the closer, and I think having a good one is more important than most. I know the Red Sox tried to get through the postseason last year without one, but really how many good teams do you see without a good closer? When I said to label the rest of the BP anyway you want I was referring to the setup 6,7, and 8 innings guy. I know it’s good that Whitlock can go more than 1 inning, but then you loose him for another 2-3 days, which doesn’t make sense to me. I haven’t heard Cora use relief aces, so I’ll just keep the setup guys to describe them.
  4. Bringing Ort back up is just another example that Bloom has no idea what he’s doing, and hasn’t all year with the BP. Might as well bring Hansel back.
  5. I agree 100% that to go into next season counting on Schreiber to duplicate this year, and to count on Houck as the full time closer would be a mistake. I trust Whitlock more than either one of them, and even then you don’t know if he could close either. I think getting a reliable closer would be the best way to go. Label them anyway you want, but to me they are just part of the BP.
  6. Anther great 2-4 home stand against the Div Standings update. 4 games under 500. 6 games back in the L column for last place in the Div. 8 games back in the L column for the last Wild Card spot.
  7. Well done.
  8. Pivetta said on his post game interview that he hasn’t shown up against div opponents this year. Nobody else has either.
  9. That booth has gone down hill since Orsillo left, and without the REM Dog pretty much 2nd, or 3rd rate. kind of like the the team.
  10. Sounds like a house cleaning to me.
  11. Looks like a 2-4 home stand, which will sink you lower in the standings let alone moving up any.
  12. The Green Monster is taking a beating today.
  13. Like I said Arroyo has to stay in the lineup somewhere. Maybe DH?
  14. I know Schreiber has been good this year, but I Don’t know if you can count on him to do the same thing next year.
  15. I’m going for the Monsta reliever named after my favorite Dick Radtz who did everything if only for a short time.
  16. I agree 100% with this, but the key is getting a true closer first, and I don’t see the Red Sox going out, and spending much money to do so.
  17. Ok. No problem now that I know.
  18. That was already known, and that’s why I said yesterday. Going forward Arroyo should still be in the lineup somewhere as long as his bat is hot.
  19. It’s not the role being made up, but when is the last time, or at all has the term relief Ace been used on any broadcast, or anywhere else? You keep avoiding, and answering that question. Thanks for asking about my eye test. Came out fine.
  20. What to hell does how they are using Schreiber got to do with the term relief Ace being used.That may be how Schreiber is being used, but who is using relief Ace to describe anyone?
  21. Nice to see Story Land back in the lineup yesterday, but it shouldn’t be Arroyo taking a seat.
  22. It’s just like the Seinfeld show. It’s all about nothing.
  23. No! It’s not worth the bother, because I don’t hear anyone using it, and if I’m wrong about that where?
  24. I sad you don’t see many. I did not say any. Using good ole Tampa for an example again.
  25. All I have said I Have Never Heard that term before, and I have not. I never said you made it up. When is the last time outside of here you have read, or heard it used? Just asking?
