The legend of the Friday Red Sox continues. Not panicked.

They did manage to accomplish one thing tonight. They kept their 10 strikeout average intact.

Criswell was actually a highlight of this game - which tells you all you need to know.
O'Neill 2 for his last 23, 13Ks.

I think someone forgot to turn on Criswell's switch to start the game.
Wouldn't it be something if he found something that he was doing in the beginning of the year but topped doing.

The good news is the Orioles lost.

Pretty clear of the need of an effective starter (Criswell not really the answer - and no answers at Woo) and a RH bat with some pop that isn't a K machine (Rafaela, Wong, O'Neill K too much). We are that close - will management spend the money?

The good news is the Orioles lost. And good news that they’ll be motivated to absolutely destroy the MFY tomorrow and Sunday after that bush league head shot. |

I don’t think the head shot was intentional given the count, game situation, and the weather conditions but Hyde got pissed because one of those assholes in the Yankees dugout was chirping. And THAT is unacceptable after drilling somebody in the head, regardless of intent |

Seems to be an overwhelming pattern there. A solid righty bat could help remedy that perhaps. |

He has look horrid at the plate lately. As long as they're facing lefties they'll keep playing him. Their options are limited given how left handed they are. He'll get 4 days off next week which will hopefully recharge him. |

Red Sox lefty hitters vs lefty pitchers:
Devers - .241/.303/.398 - 91 wRC+ (36% K rate)
Duran - .242/.313/.300 - 73 wRC+
Abreu - .194/.265/.226 - 38 wRC+
Yoshida - .146 .205 .293 - 34 wRC+
Hamilton - .176/.200/.206 - 6 wRC+ (37% k rate)
Valdez - .103/.188/.138 - negative 9 wRC+
All their active righty hitters have above average wRC+ against lefties at the moment. Certainly Dalbec striking out literally more than that half the time against lefties earlier in the year hasn’t helped their overall numbers there.
Weirdly, Dom Smith has reverse splits vs lefties this year. And Casas was slugging .619 against lefties before his rib exploded

And Casas was slugging .619 against lefties before his rib exploded Yoshida, Devers and Duran all running much bigger splits than they did last year so hopefully there’s some positive regression to come there |

But Devers and Duran you’re going to have out there every day |

He has look horrid at the plate lately. Honestly at this point I'd give Abreu a shot against a lefty. Ditto for Smith. I'd put Romy @2b and Ceddane @ SS, with an outfield of Ref (LF), Duran (CF), Abreu (RF). |

No sign of roster moves yet but I have been wondering if Criswell would go back down and Mata be activated today. With a decision required by Monday I assume Mata is here to stay if he is with the team. Criswell could not come back for 15 days and if they need him then, something has gone very wrong with the trade deadline.
