The sox light up Romero and Andrew Miller sucks. This game might be 13-11

Seems like a trend recently...

[a700hitter]

No AGon.

[iortiz]

And no CC...

 

Something wrong with 'em?

[MNSoxChief102]

Tito said nothing was wrong... just wanted to give them both a rest. They both have pretty bad lines against Romero.

[MNSoxChief102]

Way to go Ells!! Let's get this s*** rolling right from the start!

[Station 13]

Ells is hot.

 

The sac bunt is so stupid. Scoot is owning the skydome.

[Jasonbay44]

Yeah, Crawford and Gonzalez are getting days off. Crawford is like 2/20 in his career against Romero.

 

I hate wasted opportunities.

[iortiz]

Here we go..

Gotcha!

 

Good inning by Miller, unexpected, but a good inning.

 

As long he keeps throwing strikes, he'll be fine, if not, be prepare for one of those walking-nights.

[Jasonbay44]

I hate our starting pitchers

[iortiz]

0-4 and still nobody out!

[MNSoxChief102]

I hate our starting pitchers

 

If we don't win the WS it will be because of them, not our offense. They're the weakest link right now

[Cocos Disciples]

Same old same for Miller.

[iortiz]

Why not try with our farm?, Are they that bad?... Miller, Wake and Lackey are a granted lose every single day at this point... What else can you lose? Nothing! IMO.

[TedWilliams101]

Seriously. We are supposed to have this awesome farm system that we aren't going to trade, yet we have absolute crap throwing on the mound every 4th and 5th days.

[iortiz]

7 Rs rule in process?

[mvp 78]

If Buch doesn't get injured, Sox run away with the division.

 

Right now, these games are just practice for the playoffs. Hope Becks comes back ok and Bedard can pitch well in Oct. If they could get an 04 Bronson Arroyo playoff performance from Buch, we could see another duck boat parade.

 

The next two weeks are meaningless.

[NativeBostonian]

Come one. We don't have any other pitcher better then Wake and this ass that's on the hill tonight. :thumbdown

[NativeBostonian]

How about Felix Doubront? He did well when he was called up.

[VAUGHANY]

Hi all I am new on here, Red Sox fan from England, if there is any other UK Red Sox fans on here feel free to get in contact

 

Now on to the game....

 

1.20 am in England, tired and frustrated for the god knows what time in the past few weeks. I though before the Yankees series that by tonight the division would be ours how wrong i was

 

What has gone wrong!!

[SoxSport]

I swear I saw the fat lady lingering in the wings...

[VAUGHANY]

loudly singing very loudly

 

ffs that 6am alarm is getting close now for work, go to bed and forget the pain or stay up and pray for a miracle

[crc2120]

This offense is f***ing bi-polar. They score 14 runs one night, and they're being shut down by a piece of s*** like Romero tonight....WTF?!?! We had 2 chances to pick up games on the Yankees....and blew it.

[BecKett]

 

What has gone wrong!!

 

Tim Wakefield, Andrew Miller, John Lackey

[VAUGHANY]

As we say in England - nuff said

[jacksonianmarch]

Romero is one of the best pitchers in the AL

Romero is one of the better pitchers in the league and we don't have A-gon in the lineup..

[crc2120]

I guess have pieces of crap like Varitek, Lowrie, and McDonald in the lineup doesnt help.....
