vs. RED SOX, 4/19

If you can't trust a reliever with a 5 run lead then you can't afford to keep him on your roster.

That would explain Gausman being in the game.

[25 Nuggets]

One of the lowest in the lineup.

If Kevin pitches a scoreless inning, Garcia should be in with a five-run lead in the ninth.

It. Is. Fenway. Fenway.

Maybe Buck is trying to get Hunter and Gausman on track. I'm sure Tommy's confidence has skyrocketed.

Yeah, this probably it. Buck is probably less worried about Garcia at this point than he is about Hunter and Gausman.

Or more.

Could be more.

I agree he could have pitched Garcia today, but we need Tommy and Gausman to get on track more.

[Il BuonO]

Yes. Many people that just look at the stats don't see that. His velocity has been fine.

Yeah, Gary mentioned his conversation with Wallace who said Hunter had only given up the one hard hit basehit. He failed to mention that the hits, flukey or otherwise, were mixed in with some walks and a GS. I remember that being hit rather hard as it left the yard.

He's had some bad luck but he hasn't helped himself either. Today he was much better.

Might want him facing bottom of order in 9th, with a safety net ready. 5 run lead in Fenway isn't like facing the Rays at the Trop.

How is today an exception? Is this the first game you've seen this year? He's batting .457 with 5 HRs.

This is the second time this year I've seen Adam get a hit with RISP. I've seen him hit all of his solo shots during the homestand, and a few extra-base hits. But until this point I hadn't seen him do much in RBI situations.

[MarylandAaron]

David Lough's in there for defense, that's cool.

[eddie83]

That would explain Gausman being in the game.

Any chance Gaus finishes the game and then gets sent out?

[Ori-Al]

Nick's Braves won again.

[scOtt]

Are you watching Hanley?

[ArtVanDelay]

Snider just made Hanley Ramirez look really dumb.
