Yeah. That’s a hard no from me.

What? You don’t f*ck with your rotation for a game in July, division rival or not.
LOL...he's on the 10 day immediately after that start... I think Boone and I were thinking the same.
You wanted a bullpen game. The bullpen (Green) gave up 4 in 2.1 innings.
What was the margin of victory ... 4 runs.
CC did pretty much as expected but like with Sale, his bullpen didn't support him and the big scoring offense didn't score big.
we need a sweep today. If not, the season is over.
New York's top three first baseman are all on the injured list now. This is the team's first base depth chart:
Luke Voit (on the injured list and facing surgery for a sports hernia)
Edwin Encarnacion (on the injured list with a broken wrist)
Greg Bird (on the injured list since May with a torn plantar fascia)
DJ LeMahieu
Mike Ford (called up to replace Encarnacion)
Hit on the wrist in the first game today. Went on 10 IL. Not a short term injury could be done for the season.
Per NY Post:
The pinstripes have had a couple of series during the year that made it look like it was going to be a tough road to how, but then they started plowing with ease.
Price has struggled with the Red Sox in New York. You’d think Cora would know that and start someone else. Glad he’s their manager and not ours
Most of their staff has struggled in NY this season. I don't know that he had viable options. They moved Eovaldi to the bullpen to bolster an ineffective relief corps after he returned from injury and I don't know if he's any more effective starter than price. Rodriquez has the best record but his stats aren't that much better than Sale. Similar innings pitched, Rodriquez has 1/2 a run better ERA. Sox have allowed more unearned runs with Sale on the mound. One has 13 wins the other 11 losses.
It wasn’t meant to be serious. I was taking a page from a Red Sox lurker
