Wakefield is an icon in Boston except he is by far the worst commentator they have. His color commentary is decidedly off color. in the post game show he adds nothing of substance.

Why are we using real relievers up 5 in the ninth?

Why are we using real relievers up 5 in the ninth? Schreiber, Houck, and Davis were all on 4 days' rest, Strahm on 5. Meanwhile, Brasier and Sawamura have pitched 2 in a row, Danish and Robles also pitched yesterday, and Diekman had 1 day of rest. |

Houck struggling against left handed batters... Why not leave Austin Davis the lefty in to face them? |

How about we don't pull lefty relievers to put in Houck against lefty batters in the future

Put the hottest hitter in NL on, why pitch to Goldschmidt? Houck gave him nothing. Wow!

Gotta love how Goldschmidt takes a pitch down the middle on a 3-2 count because he thought it was going to fall into the left-handed batters box.

I don't buy any excuse for Duran playing CF in major league games. If the Red Sox do not re-sign JD, then make Duran the DH next year, but he sucks as an outfielder. Great win!(whew) Sox tied for 3rd WC, O.5 games out of 2nd WC. Or a 2nd baseman - his natural position. |

wainwright is still very effective, impressive He's reaching HOF talk with his consistency. The guy is a unicorn. Doesn't slow down, only injuries have hampered him at times. The thing I’ll always remember about Wainwright was from the 2013 World Series. He hadn’t lost in something like 25 consecutive starts, and the Red Sox promptly beat him twice inside of a week. Take that. |

Great pieces of hitting up and down the line-up! Not so fast, Mr. Verdugo. |

Or a 2nd baseman - his natural position. If he is going two be a second baseman then send him to AAA, so he can shake off the rust from not playing it in several years…..then Duran at 2B and Story at SS next year? You never know….it is possible, but I see Duran as a corner outfielder before moving him back to the infield… |

If Duran could play 2B then he'd be playing 2B

If Duran could play 2B then he'd be playing 2B I’m afraid Duran is best in LF. Same with Dugie. Both LH. Not sure long term there is room for both of them |

Otherwise, if you're convinced he's the real deal and if Verdugo's value holds up, trade two years of the latter in the offseason for a prospect or two and you have five years of control of Duran in LF.
