    Here's a stat that supports you DC.
    Last 25 games Sox have scored 174 runs, 6.96 runs a game
    They have allowed 149 runs in that span, 5.96 runs a game.
    16-9 record.

    Last year if they averaged 7 runs a game over a 25-game span, the team probably would have gone 22-3

    Nah, he's just being shuttled after pitching 3 days in a row. He'll be back shortly when the next guy gets shuttled. Nothing else they can do right now.
    Championships since purchase by John Henry group: Red Sox 4 Yankees 1

    The Red Sox are 8-1 in their last 9 postseason games against the Yankees.

    I agree. He is probably worn down and a period down may help him get ready to help in August.

    I have to disagree . An experienced G.M. thinking he could lose Kimbrel and Kelly from his bullpen without it making a difference is foolish. He needed to do something. To me it seems like he was complacent and overconfident. Flush with success and maybe a little smug .

    I don't think it's about him being worn down. They're basically shuttling relievers who have options back and forth between Boston and Pawtucket right now to have as many fresh arms as possible.

    The only band that mattered. :-)

    146 transactions or reported moves by Red Sox since April 3. The Clown Car has officially run out of gas.

    Moonslav,

    We all appreciate all the research you do, however, none of it matters. The pen has been brutal, by any measure.

    The SP is partly to blame, but they have been awful.........almost all year.

    By the way, our RPs have pitched only 14 more innings than the Yankees-and 73 fewer innings than the Rays. We rank fifth in RP innings pitched. Its not a case of being overworked so much as a case of just stinking.

    It’s a combination of the two.

    Not all innings are created equal. Because our RPs haven’t been very good, I expect they have averaged more pitches per IP than the pens in Tampa and NY...

    The Yanks and Rays have used openers with bulk starters afterwards. The Sox haven’t done that yet, using traditional starters. So their pen numbers are true. The Rays and ours, not so much
