Maybe JBJ should just hit at Fenway where he is batting 290, but only 130 on the road.
-
Cora, and Bloom not worrying, or figuring out the backend of the BP for the first 50+ games of the season, and making piggybacking a bigger priority will most likely bite them in the ass come postseason one way, or the other.
-
This kind of stuff you might have gotten away with against the bottom feeders that the Sox pretty much played against the past month, but not against teams like the Jays, and Yankees.
-
True that Streakman, and Strahm might not have been good matchups, but you would rather go with Robles who isn’t a match for anyone especially in the 9th inning, and that is why Schreiber should have pitched the 9th if not the 8th as well. This is a game you can’t get back, and is in the loss column for good.
-
Robles was one of Bloom’s late pickups that nobody else wanted.
-
Good one.
-
So we’re worried about tonight’s game when you don’t even know if a closer will be needed? The game was there for the taken last night, and Cora didn’t take it. The fact the Red Sox only had 1 good RH reliever is on Bloom.
-
Sounds like a plan to me, but at any rate Robles has to be gone.
-
Who would you rather see try to pitch 2 innings Danish, or Schreiber? If the plan was for Danish to pitch the 8th, and 9th last night, and Schreiber only pitch the 7th then I think that was a flawed plan at best.
-
At the very least Schreiber could have gone 2 innings. When Tom Caron, and the NESN post game crew question Cora’s moves then you know he must of messed up. Bringing Robles into the game at that point to me wasn’t all Cora could do.
-
The top of the order was also coming up in the 9th, and like I said earlier that the only way Robles comes into that situation is if he was the last man standing.
-
The LAST guy that should have been in the game in that situation was Robles, and yet Cora put him in there. Schreiber should have pitched the 9th, and not the 7th, and if anyone was going to try to get a 6 out save last night it should have been Schreiber, and not the Great Danish. I’m not even talking about Whitlock.
-
Weak, weak argument.
-
Even Tom Caron, and the guys on the postgame were questioning Cora’s moves tonight. How often does that happen?
-
Your arguments are as weak as Cora’s when he was asked why he thought Danish was the right guy to try, and get a 6 out save.
-
To quick on the draw just to say you got someone.
-
Lots of guys have never been a closer before they became a closer. That’s a weak argument that you keep using over, and over.
-
Wow! How to take a stand.
-
Blame Cora, and Bloom for that.
-
Cora used his best pitcher in the 7th, and tried to get a 2 inning save by Danish. Not only wow, but wow!
-
Vaz Clutch does it again.
-
Isn’t it great to see Red Sox leadoff hitters getting on base, and producing.
-
WALK A tonight.

Story Land opens early tonight.

With all the gloom, and doom on here last night you would have thought the team had just come off a 4-19 stretch instead of a 19-4. They are not going to win them all. Unbelievable.
