They're meant to be a lot less formal than other threads on the forum, so to moderate them the same way would be silly. However, we do ask posters to maintain a certain level of decorum in these threads, and we plan on moderating the Gameday threads a little more actively this season. In particular, we ask that posters refrain from being overly repetitive with their posts (if you've made your point, let it go), refrain from monopolizing the discussion (if you are making more than a couple posts in a row, you probably need to slow down a little bit), and of course, follow the Ground Rules ( link). The point is to make these threads worth participating in and fun for all posters, from our long-time fixtures to people just signing up today. -The Management

So yesterday was Price's start and that's that? He's gotta wait another full turn of the rotation?

Maybe Price could benefit from the rest? I remember Lester benefitting greatly in 2013 when management built in extra rest when they could.

If you think about it, right now the Sox have a 6 man rotation and a day off after the 6 finish pitching. Mini break for the starters.

Make sure Dozier doesn't leave Fenway DD.

Interesting against a right handed pitcher.
Red Sox lineup: Betts RF, Benintendi LF, Martinez DH, Bogaerts SS, Pearce 1B, Devers 3B, Swihart C, Holt 2B, Bradley Jr. CF, Johnson LHP.

A bit surprised - Eovaldi on the roster, Workman sent down. I guess a few recent rough performances means more tune up time in Pawtucket...and Cora seems to like what Hembree has been doing lately.

I think a driving factor here was that Workman's option has already been burned. Hembree has no options, it wouldn't have been him in any case.

Yeah, if nobody was going on the DL the options were basically Workman, Brasier, or Velazquez.

The Baltimore rained out game is going to be played as part of a double-header on August 11th, even though both teams have August 13th open. So we're going to need a sixth starter AND have a short pen? We got royally screwed there.

Don't they have 3 days to add Eovaldi? Why did they send Workman down before they had to?

Swihart stuck with the tag too. We've seen that play missed at the plate a few times this year.

If they’re trading Mata it better be in a package for someone good AND controllable for more than just this season.

So we're going to need a sixth starter AND have a short pen? We got royally screwed there. For a doubleheader you can call up one additional player for 1 day without counting towards the 25 man or causing any other penalties.

Too aggressive. You're already in scoring position on second base. The risk isn't worth the reward on that decision.
