Would be nice to free up that money. Bregman put on his Instagram story today the Astros hitting back to back to back homeruns against Eovaldi when he was a Ray this season and just coming back. I wonder if that’s Judge like bad juju haha. I don't think he will opt out. It would be to go to a lesser team, and honestly I don't think he'd get as much money. His playoff record is so bad, I don't know how many playoff caliber teams would want him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Counsell is doing a very good job with managing the pitching staff. He is playing with fire, as somewhere along the line, one of these relievers will be "off". I see what he is trying to do, as he is trying to get as many innings as he can with left handers, because that helps negate the Dodgers line-up. The Dodgers are really built to be home run, or bust.

Probably didn't think it would be recorded, still wasn't the right thing to do. This Sox team is a machine. No need to poke them in any way.

The good news for the players is that you will only get boo'ed for the first 7 innings when the Dodgers are home. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CrazyCarl40 Posted October 17, 2018 Author Share Posted October 17, 2018 Man what a game. And over in time for a decent bedtime. I still think the key is what Chris Sale looks like the next time he pitches. If he pitches again. Porcello versus a guy who hasn’t pitched in a long time. This game 3 was big.

Was ultra nervous yesserday... ( BTW Sox fan since 75) Eovaldi pitched quite well.. how they score a big bloop bounce that Devers flubs a double I'll never know... announcers sounded SO DISAPPOinted went Pearce put them back up.... they seemed to slobberingly fellate Bregman's every move ( tho he sure showed Devers how to play 3rd) and little Jackie Bradley... man o man... comes up huge again.... so essential when JD is struggling as he is... still very far from over....

Kimbrel is becoming an issue, but man what a wacky game. Fan interference, great defensive plays, ALCS hero Jackie Bradley Jr. And the Astros are still in it because they have Verlander tonight against (gulp) Price. Sox are 4-0 on the road in the playoffs. In the NL the Brewers head home and need to win both in order to advance. That’s a tall order but can’t count them out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Losmeister Posted October 19, 2018 Share Posted October 19, 2018 Well... the late season malaise was more of a lack of comeptition , it seems.. I thought Price gotta couple calls that defo coulda went the other way, Verlander had one on JD that coulda been called a strike, then he went yard... anyway, iwas very skeptical going into post season v Chanx and now Stros. pleasantly surprised.. go Brewers!

Agreed. Price REALLY shocked me. Especially after warming up in the 8th and 9th innings the nite before. 6 SHUTOUT innings! Unbelievable ! Going into it I would have bet the house on Verlander.

Maybe they have a better rotation, but that’s minimal at best. The Sox just dispatched two 100 win teams fairly easily. I’d like to hear why the Dodgers are better than a 108 win team.

They have a better bench. They have more team speed. They have a better lineup 1-8. The Sox will lose JD Martinez for 3 games. They play in a better league. Is that enough?
