    Anybody seen enough yet to know that Tanner Houck needs to be assigned as the 2-3 inning relief specialist?

    Maybe he should be the opener.
    Or, get the last 9 outs.
    When you say it's gonna happen now
    When exactly do you mean?

    With his limited menu of pitches Houck should and probably will be sent back to the BP. It's disappointing at this point that Houck still only has two effective pitches, but then this is the SOX and developing starters isn't their thing.

    What is with that harpoon? Every team with a "cool homerun" gimmick to attract the Millennials that don't even watch TV..

    Looks like it would be effective for carp spearing.

    The Rec Sox sending out a lineup of nobodies.

    Houck about to to be tested thoroughly this inning , but once again , Where are the hitters ? Now shoutout for the prior 14 innings at Fenway. No wall ball HRs, not a sac fly, but a few DPs . There are some phonies in that lineup.

    Kirby is a very good pitcher. He may have something to do with the SOX ineffectiveness.

    Funny, when Sale pitched those excellent 8 innings, no one said "man, those Cards can't hit."

    Cards , like the Mariners, can hit. The Red Sox cannot do so effectively to score a f'ing run. Bernadino is crap as well. Another Bloom junkyard dog.

    I guess Bernardino has regressed to what he really is.

    For some reason he’s become one of Cora’s favorite pitcher.
