The Red Sox tend to do very well against all teams' aces and #2's. They seem to slack off just a bit against the 3-5 rotations and those are the guys that have generally thrown two and three hitters against the BoSox.

Price is 0-8 in the playoffs and was bailed out in two other games that he was pulled before the third. He has a serious mental disability when pitching in the post season. If he shits the bed Monday, Cora will send him to the bullpen and replace him with Eovaldi if necessary.

That would be nice to see!!!:suds:

Damnit.

I was just about to start this thread off with a post simply stating: y'all dickbags can suck a fart out of my ass.

You sound a little salty? Can't imagine why:noidea:

The Yankees just own David Price. It’s pretty hard to look at it any other way at this point. I’m expecting him to rebound and pitch better in this series. Then again, he’s always been a better RP than SP in the postseason. Maybe that’s where he ends up if he is still sucking.

Also, is Verlander due for a bad game at some point? Does he even have those anymore?

What do you think are the biggest needs for the Indians to fill during the offseason to remain in the playoffs longer since they should win the weak division they are in again next season?

If you can keep Donaldson, the outfield and bullpen depth are gonna be key. But the Indians are smart so they’ll replace Allen for 1/3 the price.

Replacing miller will be harder.

That was really hard to watch. Like watching an old dude trying to bench 135 and failing. I felt bad watching.

I would expect the Fenway Faithful to come up with an obscene chant about Kate Upton that will at least get steam coming out of Verlander's ears...

Weather for tonight's game 1 should be fine.

Upper 40's to low 50's...10-15 % chance of rain....light winds.

Thanks for the weather update. I look forward to watching two great teams go at it.
