We finished the first half with a 13 game improvement from the same time last year. After a collective slump in June they seem to be righting the ship. They're only 6 games under and if they can avoid another June they may even finish up .500 or close to it. That's more than anyone predicted for them this year.


And now's the time where we'll start to see more of the prospects coming up - this is going to be fun.

Well, we've added a starter, he's an all-star that hasn't seem to hae found his niche yet, gave up a great prospect for him, still think we need another starter though.

http://fullcount.weei.com/sports/boston/baseball/red-sox/2016/07/14/reports-red-sox-acquire-starter-drew-pomeranz-from-padres-anderson-espinoza-part-of-deal/

I am very happy about this trade.

they got a good starter, and gave up an 18 year old kid, who may or may not become anything in the future.

I heard alot of people last night  saying they were crazy to give up this pitcher for Pomeranz.

1.) yes he looks promising, but the red sox cannot develop pitching and would have fucked this kid up long before he got tot the majors
2.) he is 18 years old which means it will be AT least 4 years before he sees a major league field
3>) the red sox kept all of their best prospect other than him
4>)they did not have to give up any of their major league players to get him
5.) if in the future this kid becomes what everyone thinks he MAY, the red sox can make deal with the padres at that time and give up another prospect at that time to get him back tongue


this to me is a no brainer, the Red sox needed a starter, got an all star pitcher under control for the next few years and gave up 1 young prospect, kept the 2 guys considered untouchable and have now become, if he pitches anywhere near what he has all year, one of the best teams in the American league with a much better chance of making the playoffs and world series than they had without him

 I say YESSSSSSSSSSSS!!!!!!! great move by Dumbrowski.

I'd be satisfied if they get another reliever, or another starter, but if this is all they do, then I do like their chances alot more than I did yesterday morning. even if his ERA ends up at 4 from the 2.4 or so it is now that is a huge improvement over their other options.

I especially like that all it cost was a 18 year old prospect. yes he is supposed to be a great pitcher, but i have heard that about owens, bard brian johnson and a shit ton of other can't miss prospects. they did what they had to do and getting a starter any better than him would have cost a hell of alot more than that.

.5 game out of first, they need to make hay on this homestand, they now have 42 games in the next 43 days, with 2 west coast road trips and 23 days of travel .

at one point they play a night game in baltimore, then the next day have a 1PM start in detroit yawn coffeee uh

now that Koji also down, they definitely need bullpen help more than a starter, hopefully they can make a trade and pick up someone, or kelley can slip into that role.

tough stretch comin up they need to grab wins whereever they can and this next 8 games at home is important.

I'm just waiting for us to trade some guys and bring up some guys.

I heard last night that Chooch may be making his final home appearance in a Phillies uniform - I'm a little sad about that but it is necessary.

you have to get younger, and losing a long time player, no matter how well liked is part of it.

I can still remember when plyers like rico petrocelli and YAZ were playing and at the time i thought they would play forever but you get e a new guy and he becomes the player everyone loves.

with the new front office you have I imagine that they wil make some changes this year too and before ya know it you'll be watchin games in october

I'm sure my father, and probably me too were watching it.

i was 4 and it was a B and W Tv, it was like 73-74 before we got our first colr TV.

the 75 Ws was the one that really cemented my love of baseball, I watched every minute of that series, cut out every article and put it ina scrapbook....well all the articles until the ones about the 7th game....kinda lost interest in the whole thing when they lost. Mad

They've been getting younger - most of the team is under 25 now I think. We're about to go through some changes. Aaron Altherr will be coming off the DL - he was supposed to be our RF before he got hurt in the spring. I was looking forward to him this year. We also have another starting pitcher that will replace Hellickson and of course our future star SS, JP Crawford. He may not be until Sept though as should our future LF Nick Williams.

I'm beyond ready for some Philly October baseball.

growing up up here on the west coast in the 50's & 60's we only had 3 TV channels and 2 were Canadian and 1 CBS affiliate in Bellingham Wash. so following an MLB team wasnt easy and my parents weren't sports fans and TV viewing was at the parents discretion. So I never really developed an interest in it.

I'll let that game go with the nerves of starting his first game here, but i would hope his ERA will be lower than 15.00 going forward.gross

back in first place!!!

if han Ram can get hot for a few weeks the offense will be unstoppable.

Sandy leon is like a Monster!!! never thought we'd be seeing that from him, but i like it.

matt barnes was awesome last night.

i'll take the win, but i was worried a bit when they came back from an 8-0 deficit. uh

great pitching and great hitting 13-2 win over the twinnies.

even Bucholz looked good. he has got to be looking for a trade at this point, the first time he pitches in 3 weeks is the 9th inning of a 13-2 blowout.

Ok, the Sox need to make a deal for either Chris Sale or Archer, they can't waste Papi's final season, and this offense can go toe to toe with any in baseball, just need the arms to get them there!

I'm more pissed about losing 2 to the twins than getting swept by the tigers. they had about a 100 chances to win more games and every time they get the lead back they give up runs.

really aggravating homestand


yeah they either need a starter or probably 2 mre bullpen arms.

100 games in, 55-45, which is better than I thought they would be

that's a plus

62 games left

20- home games
42- road games
judgy1

If they are going to make the playoffs they need to turn this around tonight and not look back


they cannot settle for 500 on the road at this point they are going to have to do it the hard way

yeah, he was the pitcher they paid for last night unfortunately ziegler...and Hanley ruined it. you can blame hanley all ya want but you can't let 3 guys get on base in the 9th with a 1 run lead.

wow, a split with the angels is the biggest win of the season. I had given up hope yesterday and the only reason I knew what happened is that I was on my way to get gas and had the game on the radio. nice win


I suppose I should be happy, despite how awful they have been playing, they picked up a half game in the standings over the weekend lol2

I'm indifferent to it, they did get another arm for the bullpen, and kimbrel is coming back. hopefully that helps them out.

I'm hoping that E-rod keeps pitching like he did last night, and that his struggles were due to missing the first 2 months. If he can be consistent they should be Ok with pitching.

I heard this morning that benentendi is on a plane for seattle as we speak.

he will be starting tomorrow's game.


lets see what he has got.

They could use a better left fielder, I'm hoping he's closer to Mike trout than bryce brentz tongue

I agree, but at some point the players you have need to perform. their offense is certainly good enough, the rotation is what it is, with 3 starters good enough for the playoffs,team have won with less, and they have bolstered the bullpen hopefully enough to get there

even if they got Lucroy, does that really make it a done deal they win??

even getting sale wouldn't have done that.

if they can get off this road trip with a winning record they will right in the mix.
'

win series, get in the playoffs whatever way you can, and hope for the best.

I would have offered Price for Sale straight up lol, and Lucroy wouldn't have hurt either way, considering what the Rangers gave up for him.

even after the Sale incident last week? I do believe there is truth about being a cancerous presence - even with talent it could ruin your team. This guy pitched a fit about a uniform - who above the age of 3 does that?

thered sox season is slowly slip sliding away, that was an awful game and n top of it wright busted up his shoulder pinch running in LA, papi fucked up his leg batting last night and mookie betts also is hurt.


They just don't have what it takes to get to the playoffs at this point I'm afarid.

too many sub par performances, too many stupid injuries, and too many road games left for them to make a run.


I'll continue to be a fan and watch, but i really don't think they have enough weapons to get to the playoffs.

their bullpen was pathetic last night, and they squandered chances to put the game away when they should have.

they should have scored at least 2-3 runs in the 5th, and a por baserunning event kept them from scoring more runs in the 6th.


add in a bullpen that couldn't get what amounts to a minor league lineup out in the 7th and turn a 4-1 lead into a 9-4 loss Mad

He told me that he considers himself a Red Sock too since that's where he played the majority of his career.

he is a huge supporter of the Jimmy Fund, and the dana farber cancer institute in Boston.
they have a telethon every year and he donates his time for a clinic with kids and adults to take batting practice with him.
he said he will pitch as fast as the adults ask him too.

he's still very popular here, and other than pedro is the best pitcher I ever saw for the red sox.

To be honest i couldn't care less about the whole steroids thing and think he should be in the HOF

Agreed, he said his numbers speak for themselves but he doesn't have a vote.

I believe this 11 game road trip will be deciding factor in the red sox season.


they have a make up game this afternoon in cleveland, leave tonight for 2 night games in baltimore, then leave on wednesday night for a 1Pm game in detroit the start of 4 games Surprised


Baltimore and detroit are their closest rivals, 1 just ahead, and 1 just behind, for the wildcard.

then it's 4 games in Tampa where they always seem to struggle.


16 home games left, 30 road games to end the season.


If they can somehow have a successful trip they will remain right in the thick of things, if however they struggle, which is entirely possible with the travel and awful scheduling, then they may on the outside looking in by the end of these 11 games.


i guess 1 game at a time is all they can worry about, but it's going to be draining getting on a plane for what seems like every damn day and not getting rest or preparing for the game properly.


we will see what they got.
