Sox bullpen ERA = 3.89

 

Addison Reed ERA = 3.95

 

So yeah, I can see how the Sox would be so many games better by adding a guy with a 3.95 ERA to a bullpen with a 3.89 ERA

Reed is not missed.

ERA+ 96, -0.3 WAR,

The Robin Ventura Effect...

 

No, I think this is a lack of talent effect. They have had 4 pretty substantial holes in the starting lineup virtually all season. The team is fighting as hard as they can, but they simply don't have the talent to compete with the big boys over the course of a season. But there is a sense in the clubhouse that they are close and that there is talent.

Sierra just about hit that one out.

Can we get Sierra some more playing time?

Sierra having a nice game.

ERA+ 96, -0.3 WAR,

 

His fWAR is even worse since he's given up so many home runs this year.

 

When Reed doesn't have his good velocity, he's just throwing 92 MPH fastballs right down the pipe.

Dombrowski just never learns. His late inning pitchers are going to be their undoing in close post season games.

Jeez, have a day Moises. Might have found a nice little bench piece in him, and he's really seemed to fit well into the clubhouse.

I think Sierra's hitting close to .300 with the Sox. He was at .272 before the game today.

 

Edit: .299/.317/.443

It's a little frustrating that Viciedo continues to get the vast majority of the starts. Be better to find out more about what they have in Moises.

with 4 hits he has to be over the .300 mark

He's hitting .299. Worst batting average ever. So close, yet so far.

Oh come on Conor.

Conor's just had a horrible day altogether.

I guess that is what will happen if you think you get the day off

This one will be hard to overturn.

Why does Jose have his entire foot on the bag? That's not the best technique in the world.

Clearly out.

lol all the fans are leaving.

Safe? WTF?

You'd think they'd shoot video in higher than 60 fps so that not everything looks blurry like it did on that replay.

huge play by Lexi
