Welcome into the baseball reporters.

Jim Murray in for the final time this week for the vacationing Tony Maserati alongside Marshall Hook with you until 7 o'clock at 6179-7-7-9-0-985.

You want to talk some socks right now. And, of course, the baseball reporters, brought to you by hot summer fun at Mohegan's Sun, Connecticut, now through September 3rd. So going into this one last night, this was the one that I, of all of them, of this four-game series, that this is the one I had an L on. And, you know, I'm typically a bit of a negative prick, but this, this

at least had to figure, even if you're the most diehard, optimistic Red Sox fan, looking at this, this was going to be a tough, a tough, difficult spot for them, right? For the Sox, going up against Cory Klobber, who's been one of the best pictures in all the baseball, he's the Indians ace. He had his best stuff last night.

And Drew Pomeran's coming off a game in which he's pulled early because of a back issue.

Well, it's going to be a question mark.

Lisa was to me. And he was up to the task and he went toe to toe to them. Pomeranz was awesome last night. And he gave up one less really big hit than Klobber and got pulled maybe a little bit early. And thankfully that didn't blow up in the manager's manager's face but I was okay with it you're dealing with a guy with a sore back or maybe something still going on there but it was a hell of a game for Pomerans I didn't mind him coming out and the bullpen ended up hanging on Addison Reed had one little blip there but it was all good and they opened it up in the ninth inning there was a huge win for the Red Sox last night and more importantly coming out of that game, it's about Pomerans. And anyone that doubted the Pomerans deal, and I was one of those people. At the time last year, it had to happen. It had to. They needed another arm in that rotation. I don't know anything about Anderson Espinoza. I know he's one of the prospects that pitching prospects here that, you know,

that they could potentially deal for something else down the road, but they needed an arm at that time.

I had no issue with it. As Pomeranz went along, you find out about his injury, the shady dealings

with the San Diego Padres. Okay, I would like to at the time when all that came to light to go back on the deal, maybe get Espenos a back and have the whole thing nullified. But, you know, none of that happened. They hung on to the pitcher. There was obviously something there that they liked. And now I guess we're really seeing it. Pomerans is their second best starter. No one around anymore can crap on the Pomeran's deal.

Kudos to you. Dave Dombrovsky, you got this one right, especially with the fact that Anderson Espinoza had to have Tommy John surgery and he's done for the year. But playoff

start today, Drew Pomeranz, to me, he's the Red Sox second starter. I don't doubt him

anymore. I don't. And Corey Klobber last night pitching as well as he has all season. Pomerans. Pomeranz, at times, was out dueling him. You can't doubt this guy anymore. Or even if you can, you can't doubt the trade. How about that? You can no longer doubt the trade.

This one, this one's a win. We'll put this in the win department for Dave Dombrovsky.

This, Eduardo Nunez, any of the middling deals that he maybe had questions about, and I've had many,

especially when you look at some of the other relievers, Tyler Thornberg.

This one, he got right. This one, this one will put the the easy ones he had to do here like chris sale he got true pomerans right but murray what if anderson espinoza comes
