    Yup. And after Weissert's inning, it's nice to have a quick clean 9th to get the hell out of town.

    Hamilton bats for Devers. Does a Devers impression.

    That Rafaela kid...he's pretty useless at SS, no?

    So nice to see that the old Devers is back. 5 games in a row.

    Of course they relive the interference play with Middlebrooks.

    For anyone watching on a browser, are you having issues with closed captioning? Every time they return from a commercial break, the captioning is on and large and annoying. I have it switched off in the settings, even adjusted the size just in case, to no avail. I refresh the page and the...

    Put the mic back on him if he's gonna do that.

    Shedding the mic pack and ear piece as he walks to the plate is a great look.

    Intriguing booth for the broadcast: Cardinals regular PxP guy Chip Caray and Will Middlebrooks.

    May: Red Sox discussion, observations and trend tracking...AKA It's not all about the Benjamins

    WAR is a cumulative stat. And it's not surprising to have a number of high WAR players and have a record below .500 if the rest of the roster is putting up negative WAR. Enmanuel Valdez -0.9 bWAR Isaiah Campbell -0.9 bWAR Pablo Reyes -0.8 bWAR Joely Rodriguez -0.7 bWAR Garrett Cooper -0.5...

    May: Red Sox discussion, observations and trend tracking...AKA It's not all about the Benjamins

    I agree with this entire assessment of the roster. I think part of the desire to blame the hitting coaches comes from seeing what the pitchers are doing and how much credit the coaching is getting for their performance. A fair number of pitchers are showing improvement from last year to this...

    Who to sell at the trade deadline?

    Something else to consider as far as Martin's usage last year. He missed three weeks in April with an IL stint for shoulder inflammation. Upon returning he appeared in 48 of 124 team games. That's a 62 game pace over 162 game season. I really don't think they protected Martin as much as we...

    Who to sell at the trade deadline?

    Martin pitched in back to back games 7 times and on one day's rest 20 more in 55 appearances last season. This year it's 2 and 6 in 17 appearances. So he's going on "short" rest about half the time. Jansen by comparison pitched back to back 9 times and on one day's rest 8 times in 51...
