With a runner on first and less than 2 outs, the Kiké double play is all but guaranteed

I'd prefer the bullpen have one of Whitlock or Houck. Not sure I have a strong preference. Whitlock was an all star reliever.

Most of these umps should be demoted to A ball

Chris Sale was offended by all the love Paxton got. Ace lefty slot occupied, got it?

He was but he couldn't really pitch on consecutive days, which is a quality that's nice to have in a reliever. The beat case scenario is that the Sox can keep Sale and Paxton healthy and effective, Bello blossoms and they find a capable slam dunk starter, whether it's what they already have or in a deal in July. Whitlock can hopefully continue on as a starter and with the team only needing 4 starters in a potential October, Whitlock could head to the pen for the postseason. Win-win.

Matz is starting to pitch better, certainly aided by the fact that the strike zone is virtually infinite.

Win-win. so best case scenario isn't 1 of Kluber or Pivetta turning it around? Ill take last years first have Pivetta as part of my best case scenario. Sale/Paxton/Bello/Pivetta/Houck as the starters and Whitlock/Winc as set up man/high leverage middle relivers. Kluber as long reliver/emergency starter.

I'll be glad when baseball games stop interrupting in-inning interviews.

I'll be glad when baseball games stop interrupting in-inning interviews. I agree. they have all the time postgame for that. It is nothing but annoying with the constant in game talk.

There's only so many times I can say, Kiké is going to come through this time he's due.

Love seeing Sale strike out the side after giving up the homer. I can live with this version

I don't love rolling Sale out for the 8th. Long season, brittle arm. Schreiber and Martin rested.

This has to be it for Sale, let him get the standing O. He's getting up there in pitches
