Seriously, if you can't pitch them with a 5 run lead, you have to try someone else from the waiver wire. The bar is ridiculously low.These bottom of the pen guys are atrocious
May need him tomorrow?Why didn’t they just keep Pivetta in to begin with? He’d still be fine for Tuesday.
I'm not convinced they aren't planning to use him tomorrow.Why didn’t they just keep Pivetta in to begin with? He’d still be fine for Tuesday.
Pitching wins championships.Defense wins championships, which is why Bloom built the worst defensive team the Sox have fielded this century
I wish you hadn't reminded us of that.Pitching wins championships.
I'm pretty sure you are correctPretty sure the Kenley balk was intentional, he's done it before to get a guy off 2nd base with a multi run lead
Because Cora sucks at BP managementWhy didn’t they just keep Pivetta in to begin with? He’d still be fine for Tuesday.
Why? He can't steal signs anymore. Is catcher positioning that important?Pretty sure the Kenley balk was intentional, he's done it before to get a guy off 2nd base with a multi run lead
A modest goal, but DONEPaxton vs Scherzer
Goal: stop that losing streak
Goal is simple--win the series.A modest goal, but DONE
input on tomorrow’s goal appreciated.
So he doesn't say mean things to him.Why? He can't steal signs anymore. Is catcher positioning that important?
Who can't steal signs? Pretty sure guys attempt to steal signs from second base every game.Why? He can't steal signs anymore. Is catcher positioning that important?
So was Duran. Maybe Dalbec deserves another chance.I'm not sure what you're asking--Dalbec was terrible in Boston last year.
Duran got another chance this year because of injury and when he did he seized the moment by absolutely raking in April and forcing them to keep him around and playing most days. When Dalbec got a chance because of injuries this year he went 2/12 with 8 Ks.So was Duran. Maybe Dalbec deserves another chance.
Addition by subtraction... Kike unfortunately adds nothing offensively or in the field. And as far as Aquaman behind the plate, give the newly drafted Kyle Teel a number (said in jest).I know part of it is waiting for guys to get healthy and playing the 40-man game but at a certain point you need to just bite the bullet and remove some of these guys as options.
