Red Sox 7, Indians 5: The hangover lineup prevails
And Chris Sale gets some strikeouts The Red Sox were not exactly going all-out to win this game, submitting a lineup including almost exclusively bench players. That didn’t matter, because this team still finds a way to win. Chris Sale got the start and he was effective, though inefficient. He was the story of this game, and you’ll get details of his start below, but somehow this lineup scored seven runs. What? If we’re being honest with ourselves, there was really only one portion of this game with which we were concerned, and that was Chris Sale on the mound. The lefty was set for...

Game 154 Gamethread: Red Sox vs. Indians
For the most part these games are meaningless, and the lineup tonight is hilarious. However, Chris Sale is on the mound tonight and it would be nice to see him hit his mark of five innings for this game. So, let’s do that, and winning with the hangover lineup would be pretty rad too. Go Sox!

Red Sox at Indians lineup: The hangover lineup is... something
One day after the Sox clinched the division against the Yankees, they roll out the B team in Cleveland. The American League East-winning Red Sox (104-49), or some portion thereof, look to add to their gaudy win total against the American League Central champion-to-be Indians (85-67) tonight in Cleveland (7:10 p.m., NESN, ESPN2). It’s a matchup of ‘Guys who could have been the Cy Young Award frontrunners if they hadn’t gotten hurt’ as Chris Sale (12-4, 1.92 ERA) squared off against Trevor Bauer (12-6, 2.22 ERA), who’s a couple starts behind Sale in the return process and is only...

Red Sox set rotation for the rest of the year
Chris Sale will get a break before the postseason The Red Sox have just ten games left on the year, and they need some combination of two wins for themselves and/or losses for the Yankees to wrap up the division. They needed just one win in this series in New York, and they have won more chance to clinch in the Bronx. Either way, it seems all but certain they will get the division wrapped up at some point, and now they are preparing for the American League Division Series. With that in mind, they have set their rotation (mostly) for the rest of the year. You can see it in full below,...
