I'll still maintain the fact that I think Sam Travis could come close to replicating the same type of production to Beltran this coming year if he played the full year in Fenway park for 1/10th of the cost. Ohh and Sam Travis can actually play a position (first base).... Sam Travis isn't ready to play 1st defensively at a major league level and is coming off an injury.

I'll never understand why you can use Kimbrel in the 9th but not in the 8th. It's baseball insanity. It's a leverage index of 1.86 vs. 0.70. Couldn't agree more. I hate the save statistic. Use your best pitcher in the highest leverage situation. Yup. Also blows my mind(I realize Ziggy was unavailable) that Farrell wants Clay to be the 8th inning guy when Bannister basically publicly trashed that idea.

How certain are we ERod or Wright come back healthy though? I almost think they should just take the slow approach of bringing Eddie back while Clay continues to pitch well.

If the Sox can get anything that even resembles an eighth-inning guy, this team leads the East by at least 3 games We have that guy - Ross. Too bad Farrell is awful at developing/setting roles for relievers. It's something that's extremely important and he fails to do it. If Barnes is your "8th inning guy" he shouldn't have been in last night. There 8th inning guy should be Ziggy.

So Dalbec's astronomical k-rate is sitting at a whopping 22.2% while his slugging remains at .542. Maybe he shouldn't be a pitcher. Should we call him Babe or Bambino? The Dalbino

With Buccholz pitching tomorrow! I swear, the best trade this team can do is fire Mr Moran. I was wondering how someone can make something negative about this and you didn't let me down! He hadn't pitched since Saturday and people are freaking out lol

I'm thinking were going to see Swihart in LF shortly with Holt ice cold.

I'd prefer to see them shy away from the HS Arms. I'm hoping they go with a college or hs bat.

So does Rusney get one more shot with the Sox or is he dead to them? He should. I'm a big fan of Holt, but he is not an every day player. He has much more value to the team when he's playing his "super utility" role. Doesn't have the BABIP luck to start this year like he did in the previous two, as well.
