Should the Red Sox leave Pomeranz OFF the post season roster?
93.7 was debating this am about this topic.

Do you really trust Buchholz over him? Pomeranz has been bad his last two starts, but Buchholz has been pitching like that the majority of the season. Pomeranz had been pitching pretty well after he got lit up by the Giants (3.35 ERA from July 25-Sep 5).
I don't trust either one of them
All I'm getting at is that Pomeranz's stats are a bit skewed by three bad starts. I'd still say he's shown a lot more than Buchholz had.
Even if Wright's healthy, I'm not sure how much I'd trust him. He had a great first half, but he was pretty lousy before getting hurt. Wright's regression was to be expected, unless you're a believer his soft contact rate is sustainable.
Even with Eduardo's stinker against the Yanks, he's had a good 2nd half. He's probably due for some regression as well (3.25 ERA, but 3.86 FIP and 4.75 xFIP), but he's still shown significant improvement over his first half struggles.
Yeah I hear ya and thanks for the stats. I just don't think Drew has done enough while with the Red Sox to warrant him being on the roster
It's just nice to be discussing Red Sox postseason rosters again.
Another strong performance from E-Rod. I imagine he'll crack the postseason rotation.

Pomeranz with an encouraging start against the Rays, who have had one of the best offenses in MLB since the ASB (top 10 in wRC+ and runs scored).
So much for that idea. Crisp first home run since 2012.
sadly enough Clay was the "best" pitcher in this series for the Red Sox
Not Joe Kelly (3.2 IP, 0 H, 0 BB, 3 K)?
Gotta say, I'm pretty impressed with how Kelly's done since getting recalled in September. He may very well play a huge role in the bullpen next year. It would be great if they can bring back at least one of Uehara/Ziegler. Barnes/Hembree/Ross are fine relievers and Robby Scott looks like he could be a good LOOGY. If Carson Smith can get healthy in time, it could be a really good bullpen next year.
