I can't remember if I heard that somewhere at the beginning of the season. If true a dominant bullpen becomes more important . I'd rather not be trusting some of the guys we have unless they show a strong 2nd half. Get as many quality arms as you can afford at the TDL, Way too far away to say what I'd prefer when so much can happen between now and then. Schedule looks like it's back to the 2019 format. https://sportsnaut.com/mlb-playoffs-schedule-bracket-dates/ 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

An off day every time the teams travel, and one day off between series if the previous series goes the max number of games. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We can always hope a minor miracle has occurred and they saw something in his last start that makes them think he has turned a corner.

flavum Posted July 16, 2021 Share Posted July 16, 2021 (edited) Sox tweeted the moves. Lamb on rehab assignment too. Edited July 16, 2021 by flavum Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dick Allen Posted July 16, 2021 Share Posted July 16, 2021 When Lamb is ready, I would imagine, even as good as he has looked, Burger has to go down. The one thing Burger needs to do is play, and sitting on the bench most of the time is a waste. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's where moving Moncada to 2B comes in! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well I've seen at least one comment from Tony that he's very happy with Burger's play so far but the last thing he wants to see is a young guy like that on the bench. I don't really know where he's supposed to play, I'm not super optimistic that he's going to defend at 2B. Could DH some but that's probably not the ideal role for him either.
