    Cora put Jansen in to give him back his confidence. This is something you do to a young player in a meaningless game that is not on the line. That was a fatal mistake. Kike makes errors because he overestimates his playing ability. 99% of other infielders do not throw to 1st in this instance. If Jansen had pitched well Cora would have been hailed a great manager.

    I bet a case of Coca Cola that if Kike stays healthy he could have numbers comparable to Xanders playing SS in San Diego. Boston simply needs pitching.

    I want Tito's team to go all the way. That they will beat the Yanks tonite is sweet.

    I just want to say that if the Red Sox bring back JDM I will commit suicide. He looks like a girl at the plate and his swing speed is very low. Bring back Vaz and keep Reese Jackson McGuire. Use Hosmer as DH and 1st base. Keep Casas. He is not hitting, but seems to have a good eye at the plate. He needs a chance. Houck, Whitlock should start, add Wacha. Keep Brayan and Pivetta in the rotation. Maybe Sales can pitch one more time. Spend dollars on relief pitchers. That is where the Red Sox lose games.

    My proposal: Kike: infield/outfield Arroyo: infield/outfield Verdugo OF Refsnyder, OF, DH Pham, Hosmer DH plus playing time. Devers 3rd X man. ss McGuire catching, bring Vaz next year Casas 1b Story 2nd, SS Duran bench, pinch runner Starting pitchers Whitlock Bello Houck Wacha Sales Pivetta et,al Spend money on relievers. That is where the Red Sox are losing games.

    I could be wrong but big boy Casas is an improvement over Cordero catching the ball.
  7. jgar658
    One would think JDM should be hitting 8th. Or JDM should sit and Pham could be DH. That would get Refsnyder on the lineup.

    JD has lost swing speed and power. He hit that ball as hard as he could and he was not sure it was going out hence he was hustling as he ran to 1st base. The ball barely made it over the fence.
  9. jgar658
    JD on the line up hitting 5th is horrible. Bench JD, use Pham as DH so he doe not drop flay balls on the outfield. Put Refsnyder on the outfield Bat Arroyo 5th.
  10. jgar658
    BTW, the X-man should have been traded.
  11. jgar658
    Youk is not that bad. Her is OK most of the time.
  12. jgar658
    Pham cannot catch any ball hit above his head. There was a 50% chance he could catch this short one in front of him. I hope he does not come back.
  13. jgar658
    There must be an infielder somewhere in the Red Sox organization that can hit more than Sánchez. Perhaps a double AA guy.

    JBJ and Kike catch that flyball to centerfield with no problems. Duran moves funny while awkwardly chasing the ball.
  15. jgar658
    JBJ catches that flyball.
  16. jgar658
    Ha, ha! That play at 2nd was much closer than expected.
  17. jgar658
    That makes sense. Another one that frustrates me is a long a bat after the count is 3-2. Fouling multiple pitches off the plate and then suddenly taking one down the middle with no swing. I guess the pitch catches the hitter by surprise. Bobby Daulbec is an expert doing this.
  18. jgar658
    Guys, I have a general baseball question: Quite often a hitter comes to the plate and takes the first pitch, a strike down the middle of the plate. I am watching at home and say to myself: "Wow that was such a nice pitch to hit". Then the second pitch is one foot outside the plate and the batter swings missing the ball by 8 inches. Why is this so common?
  19. jgar658
    Is Alex Cora responsible for the Red Sox demise? It seems no one mentions Cora in this debacle.
  20. jgar658
    Why in the world we did not keep this guy? BTW, who did we get for Rizzo?
  21. jgar658
    Bello is not Pedro. Last night Bello was a bit like a batting practice pitcher. I was massively disappointed.

    A neg Covid test within 24 hour is way better than a vaccine certificate. A vaccinated person could be festering with Covid and enter Canada with no problem.
  23. jgar658
    Fauci who is quadruple vaxed could have gotten into Canada before he turned Covid positive. Vacccinated and non vaccinated people can get infected. It is best to require a neg Covid test within 24 hours before entering Canada. That would make much more sense.
  24. jgar658
    How about signing Correa and put Bogey on 2nd base?
  25. jgar658
    Houck can definitely be a starter. Whitlock, can easily be groomed to be a starter. he is young and string and already had his TJ surgery.
