    The downside of clinching so early. LOL

    It might be a National League kind of weekend.

    Go Sox!

    You guys have all caught the flavor of these last weeks. Cora is experimenting all over the place and we knew the MFY were not going to catch us.

    That said, its getting down to the wire and Sale still does not look like Sale. If I could recognize his motion as something I am used to seeing, I would be OK with it. But I can't recognize this and the results would seem to support being unable to recognize it.

    I'm worried; Sale is topping out at around 92-93, he's not throwing very many fastballs and his command is not that good.

    Hopefully the second inning shows a little more.
    The Yankees could go 0-162 and it wouldn't be enough

    The variety and the skills of the Sox everyday players up and down the bench has been a joy to watch these last couple weeks. The pitching...not so much.

    Swihart just got squeezed.
    "Hating the Yankees like it's a religion since 94'" RIP Mike.


    "It's also a simple and indisputable fact that WAR isn't the be-all end-all in valuations, especially in real life. Wanna know why? Because an ace in run-prevention for 120 innings means more often than not, a sub-standard pitcher covering for the rest of the IP that pitcher fails to provide. You can't see value in a vacuum when a player does not provide full-time production."

    Sale is not extending toward home plate. That is of course Hembree disease. When I start putting Sale and Hembree in the same sentence, you know I am worried.

    Last pitch of that inning a bit better. Would like to see it on a FB though.

    Sale has lost all his velocity. Start worrying.

    He may be saving it, but it would be nice to see an occasional 97 mph FB. Just to know he has it. If he is hurt we are toast.

    Sale does not like Vazquez.

    Why does Vazquez stand up before the high heat is thrown?
