    Whitlock had an easy 4 innings today against a weak hitting club, and gave up a game tying homer into his 3rd inning against the Yankees, so let’s see how he does his next 4-5 outings going 4-5 innings, before he gets anointed the next big starter. In a couple of weeks the Red Sox will have to get down to 13 pitchers, so some decisions will have to be made then.
  2. Old Red
    Cora said after the game that Whitlock was not coming into the game if still down 3-0.
  3. Old Red
    2 HR today.
  4. Old Red
    Arroyo in RF in Fenway will be more of a challenge. If JBJ continues not to hit he may see less playing time even against righties.
  5. Old Red
    39 pitches in 4 innings, so pretty easy Peasy.
  6. Old Red
    What’s Bloom waiting for. It should have been done after he made the JBJ trade.
  7. Old Red
    He hasn’t thrown many pitches.
  8. Old Red
    They took him out the other day when he gave up the lead when the plan was for him to go 4.
  9. Old Red
    I don’t believe Whitlock would be in the game now if it was still 3-0.
  10. Old Red
    Then why did the Sour Man come in?
  11. Old Red
    The schedule is only as good as the situation at the time. Down 3-0 is not the time, but 3-3 is.
  12. Old Red
    Lolich is still dealing.
  13. Old Red
    Dugy slow going after the ball. Lifeless is right.
  14. Old Red
    I think JBJ catches both.
  15. Old Red
    The JBJ trade looks worse everyday. He has to platoon, and there is no regular OF to takes his place. This is all on Bloom.
  16. Old Red
    Is that McClain, and Lolich out there for Detroit the last two games?
  17. Old Red
    Yes to the ist question, and depends on the hitter like JBJ for the 2nd.
  18. Old Red
    If you look back to last year the difference between the Sox making the postseason, or not was one game. I’m not freaking out, but they all count.
  19. Old Red
    I don’t think Story is much help at this point. He does need to get some AB, but he only had 6 AB in ST, so I don’t see the Sox getting any output from him for sometime.
  20. Old Red
    Let’s not leave out my favorite Flintstone Schwarber 2 for 14, 1 HR
  21. Old Red
    If you keeping throwing things against the wall sooner, or later something will stick. The pile on the floor keeps getting bigger though.
  22. Old Red
    Fact, or fiction?
  23. Old Red
    Who knows what the staff, or the team for that matter will look like next year. Could be lots of comings, and goings.
  24. Old Red
    I get your point, but if they see him as a starter then why isn’t he starting? Being in a piggy back role to me is just a waste of only pitching 1-2 days a week compared to 3-4 days a week as a closer. The Red Sox May view him as a starter in the future, but I just don’t think right now. I’m not saying I’m right, but just my thought.
  25. Old Red
    I just don’t think at this point that there is serious thought of making Houck a closer, and will get every chance with Frail out to be a part of the rotation, which lots have been clamoring for on here. On the other hand I don’t think there is serious thought right now of putting Whitlock into the rotation, but that could all change with Houck, Hill, or Whacka imploding.
