I watched that extra inning game they had with the Twins - they were impressive.

The mystery of closers failing in non save situations scare me here.

vs. Tony using Joe Kelly

They gonna lose. Cleveland pens is clutch. Sox - unclutch.

Yep guy was in the minors last year. It was a job for a veteran. But I don't trust them either.

Stone likes to use the word hustle a lot.

I miss the days of stud pitchers going almost 8.

The pen is a mentally weak bunch. The best money can buy.

Unfortunately they don't let the pitchers bat. I loved the time watching Cease bat. He doesn't use the Menechino book.

There's a lot of big name dudes who fail in the post season. The list is surprising.

You must be confused this is not the Cleveland forum.

Maye like polish it?

I get this feeling they take out Cease done 0-1 and someone in the pen will have a mentally weak moment.

Heard on the radio aif they win the division it is some miracle finish. I'd see it as a fat lazy person with poor diet suffers a stroke now decides to work on his health.

I wonder what Tony's career pct. is managing the Sox.

Somehow battered teams get a second life playing the Sox.

The pen for Cleveland is better than the Sox. Because of pitching I don't think Cleveland will be easy for any team to run over.

I didn't realize if the Sox sweep Cleveland they are still not in 1st place.

That wont happen. Reinsdorf will push Tony in the dugout for the World Series in hopes to win it his way,

Maybe he wants to retire while still being good before age really sets in. Sometimes athletes fail to see that.

I guess that means the Dodgers or Astros sign him.

Yep. So far the team hasn't been sold to a baseball intelligent owner who wants to be like the Dodgers, Rays. or Cardinals.

You left out Tony mot sucking who insisted on playing one of the worst players in baseball.

I get tired of the lets play GM threads. One simple thing is to not rely on NL players making a difference. No Nimmo, No Contreras. So far it hasn't worked. No NL arms either. Don't ever listen to Tony. Trade only to get rid of players because the Sox are bad at trades and don't expect value. Trades guys like Leury for a 20.00 era pitcher who will fill the farm system. Getting a haul for x player is fantasy sports. Continue to dumpster dive. They only thing they are good at. See Andrus, Cueto. Fire the whole coaching staff. Unfortunately those again will be ex players. Keep Gordon out of the booth. Stop spending money on the bullpen.

Sox on a good streak and Twins on a bad one. They come to an end. Luck is involved. Watch the roles reverse on Tuesday. Too often the teams the Sox should beat came off losing streaks and then go on to winning streaks.
