2018 Boston Red Sox Thread

That was a vintage 2018 Red Sox half inning.
Great job by Vazquez starting that.

Yeah and ryu has pitched Vazquez really tough — putting the ball exactly where he wanted it. Serving one into right was actually a pretty impressive at bat.
 
I was wondering why Moreland didn't PH for Pierce but I've learned not to question Cora.
Madson walked Pierce in game 1 on 4 pitches. That is the main reason I think Cora let him hit.
The cold affected Madson’s grip on the curve thus he was in trouble. He couldn’t locate his fastball.
After yesterday that was a bad call by Roberts. He should have gone to Biaz as that bases loaded appearances could have been the biggest at-bat.
Roberts is going with the same pitchers in the same spots Madson, now Urias just like yesterday. It has to be mapped out for him by the LA FO.
 
Okay Joe Kelly do that just 2 more times in Red Sox wins and your craptastic June to September is completely forgiven.
Plus you will make some money as a FA.
 
I just hope Pomeratz isn’t the game 4 starter and they are pushing Eovaldi to game 5.
With only 13 pitches Eovaldi will get 2 days of rest without much wear and tear.

There is no way that Pomeratz is going to start a game in this series. He gets in after E-Rod was used earlier in the game against some random leftie.

Seems like they are going porcello for 3, then it would seem the plan is eovaldi for four. I like that switch b/c Buehler is a stud so might as well stagger eovaldi to give yourself a bit of an edge vs. Hill in game 4.

Be interesting to see if they use Price in the BP in LA b/c it’s likely 5 days between now and his next start.
 
It was stupid just because the move didn’t allow the lineup clear Vazquez to end the inning.
I was just happy Kinsler actually got a hit to drive in Bogaerts. So I can live with the stupidity. As a Jays fan you know hits to left at Fenway don’t necessarily score a guy from second.
It was dumb though.

Never really thought of the short throw. Strategically it is still a poor decision IMO.

I am not a Jays fan, but follow them casually more than any other team. I am a baseball fan who watches quite a bit less than I used to. My cheering for a baseball team ended in 2004 when the Expos moved to Washington.
 
I'd have pulled a Francona and gone with Kelsey Jansen in the 5th inning. That was the most important inning of the game. Once Ryu couldn't put away their #9 hitting catcher on an 0-2 count it was game over.
 
So Brock Holt is batting 5th.
Lol.
I don’t get Bradley over Bientiendi but whatever.

That says to me that they want JBJ out there to help a injured J.D. Martinez
 
Dodgers remind me of the Yankees so much.
How they play. The organist, the only real difference Yankees fans make Yankee Stadium intimidating to play in. Dodger Stadium is quiet and their fans are too nice.
 
No matter what Davey Tingle Fingers deserves props for giving the team 15 pitches on his throw day in the bottom of the 9th and getting 2 outs.
 
I just found out that the blonde lady in the blue letter jacket that kept distracting me with her bizarre dance moves and imitations is Mary Hart, formerly of Entertainment Tonight.

Does anyone have any idea what I’m referencing or did someone roofie me at the bar and I was hallucinating all that?
 
The Red Sox better win this... the Dodgers pitching staff is in much better shape after tonight.

Sale is going to pitch game 4. None of their pitchers have been overextended.
Both Jansen and Biaz have gone 2 innings.
Boston will be fine pitching wise.
These bats are dead both ways.

We'll see. The Dodgers are throwing Hill tomorrow. I like whoever we match up with him. The Sox have a lineup that I just can't see scoring tonight. On the other hand, do you see the dodgers beating the Sox at Fenway?

It’s Mary Hart
 
Lol we just double switched our 3 hole hitter for Sandy Leon.
I mean...
