you said I was overreacting there chief. WMB was hitting under the mendoza line for the past 4+ weeks. He'sbeen bad and can be replaced unlike some of our others. Middlebrooks hit .244/.270/.477/.746 in Sept/Oct and .238/.265/.488/.753 in his last 28 days. It's not great, but it's not close to the Mendoza line. whatever, still hot garbage the last 4 weeks.

That September/October line is a 96 wRC+, which is about league-average for third basemen. It's also better than Xander's 50 major league PAs so far (86 wRC+).

I don't even know why we are talking about WMB, he's not the reason why the sox are losing the series.

Try a bunt to 3rd or 1st do something else.

Actually, I think a bunt by Pedroia would be sensible here. He's obviously not right, and you might as well try to get a couple of guys on for the big LH boppers. Maybe Scherzer makes a mistake and the Sox can get back into the game with one swing.

Tigers bullpen is not as good as it appeared last night. If the Sox bullpen can hold the fort this game is not over. Scherzer up to 93 pitches?

Sitting Nava against a righty has me mystified as well. He is the 2nd best batter on this team by OBP, and his season long OBP vs righties was .411. I know Gomes is a sparkplug but those numbers transcend "scrappy spirited team beard guy" stuff.

Actually even more impressive for Scherzer to have 13 K's in 7 innings without Salty having any and Napoli not being in the lineup.

Over/Under 15K for Scherzer? I'm going with 13. Called it.

Hey, look, it's Will "sub-Mendoza line" Middlebrooks with the second extra-base hit of the series!

Victorino should have considered bunting there, with Cabrera playing back and a right-handed pitcher (who falls towards 1B) on the mount.

One record nobody keeps track of I bet is hanging breaking balls taken or missed...We have to have already set that record
