    The Boston Red Sox Saturday, March 30, 2019 * The Boston Globe Mitch Moreland saves Red Sox after Nathan Eovaldi takes his lumps Peter Abraham SEATTLE — The job of a baseball manager comes down to one essential truth: put your players in the best position to succeed. Everything else is filler. Alex Cora had that in mind in the ninth inning on Friday night when he sent Mitch Moreland to the plate as a pinch hitter against the Seattle Mariners. The Sox had cut a five-run deficit down to two and had two runners on base against righthander Scott Strickland. It was a similar situation to Game 4 of the World Series last fall when Moreland was sent up in the seventh inning with two runners on and the Sox trailing the Los Angeles Dodgers by four runs. Moreland homered deep to right field off righthander Ryan Madson to get the Sox back in the game and they went on to beat the Dodgers and won the Series the next night. Five months later, Moreland did it again. His home run to right field gave the Sox a satisfying 7-6 victory. The second game of the season isn’t the World Series. But Moreland, who has always hit righthanders well, had been in that spot before and knew what he needed to do. “The more experience you’ve got with it the better you can prepare,” Moreland said. “Obviously it was a little bit different but, still, all the same. You’re trying to go up there and do your job.” Cora was just waiting for the right moment.

  • Cubs 2013 Preview: a Bit Better Pitching, but Rebuilding Still Grinds Along Slowly
    Cubs 2013 preview: A bit better pitching, but rebuilding still grinds along slowly By George Castle, CBM Historian Posted Friday, March 29, 2013 Theo Epstein is getting double for his money these days. First, the former lifelong Bostonian is getting a valuable education in Chicago politics as the three- cornered debate over Wrigley Field renovations shows how Clout City USA really works. And yet all the arguments over whether the Cubs should get seri- ous with Rosemont and consider moving if they don’t get a renova- Cubs GM Jed Hoyer (with wife Merrill) and boss Theo Ep- tions deal very soon give Epstein stein have once again constructed a roster that can be and his baseball operations depart- disassembled via mid-season trades. ment a big break. Off-the-field issues involving Wrigley Field, whether the installation of lights, falling concrete or Arne Harris’ hat shots, are always far more than sideshows. They become the main story, relegating the Cubs’ on-field fortunes to notebook status. The taffy pull involving Tom Ricketts, Rahm Emanuel, Tom Tunney, the rooftop owners and the vil- lage of Rosemont absolutely shifted the Cubs’ spring-training countdown to Opening Day to secondary news-angle status. If all focus was on the team itself, the conclusion would be a sub-standard roster with a slew of place-holders that is being intentionally fielded for the second-year in a row. Worse yet, as Epstein vows a rebuilding-from-the-ground-up strategy, there are no pitching phenoms or fresh-faced hot rookies as attention-getters to make the continual losing more palatable.
