If I am named the next Red Sox GM (still hoping for that call!) the first thing I will do is tell Cora that Houck needs to pitch 4 innings every four days. It's not a starter role, it's not a reliever role, it's a whole new thing, and Houck would be amazing at it. He'd have like a 1.50 ERA over 140 innings.

So who ever the starter is that day gets a planned 5 inning start. Save some bullets over the course of a season for each starter. You are on to something !

You could do it that way or you could have Houck as a fifth starter who goes every four days. Essentially every starter would get an extra day off every fourth start. Or switch between those two modes depending on whether it's the bullpen or the starters who need the rest.

I kinda feel like the Rangers need to lead by about 10 to feel out of it, given their bullpen.

Aroldis Chapman coming in. He was traded for Cole Ragans this season, which is pretty crazy.

Chapman throwing nearly 103 at 35 is crazy. Chapman not being very good and throwing 103 is madness.

Ugh. It really is the little things every single game. We throw to third on a play that wasn't that close, let the next runner get to second. Could have had a double play set up, but no. So frustrating and it just cannot be like this next season.

Amazing how little emotion there is for me around this game. Murphy hits a batter? Gives up a hit....meh. Schreiber gives up a hit...meh.
meaningless September baseball kind of sucks.
I'd like us to win mostly to help Seattle get in.

Ronald Acuna has 39HR and 67SB. A 40/70 season is within reach.
In a related note, the Sox should try and hire some talent from the Braves.
