4/17 vs. Rangers

[VA Sox Fan]

Melancon still in the house. Didn't think this game could get much more brutal. 14-2. Cool.

Beckett quickly trying to find some out of date hamburger in an effort to induce food poisoning and call in sick tomorrow.

 

He's at Fenway Park. He should just have some of the nachos.

V is trying out the new hook BC bought for him about one inning to late for Jon.

[Laser Show]

Melancon and Lackey are gonna be bff's

[Palodios]

Don't remember seeing him like this in a long time. The start of the game was delayed by a couple of minutes' date=' while waiting for him to take the mound. Hope all is well. Gives me a nervous stomach.[/quote']

 

In all fairness, Lester is notoriously bad in April, always has been, except for last year.

[RedSoxNC84]

I quit watching when it was 7-2.. now it's 14-2?!

 

I mean.. at some point you invoke the mercy rule, right?

OH, I failed to mention. NO outs. But I think we all know that.

[Laser Show]

This reminds me of the 30 runs the Rangers dropped a few years back

[Youk Of The Nation]

Melancon ERA 49.50 ' date=' I think I could do better than that[/quote']

 

You already are. By not being a major league pitcher your ERA is 0.

 

Remember when we were all coming down on guys like Embree when they struggled?

 

I'd take Foulke or Embree or even Leskanic at their worst day over this guy right now. Even near the end when Embree was basically Mike Remlinger I don't think he ever gave up three home runs without recording an out.

Brutal. This guy totally stinks. He has nothing. Nice pickup, Ben!! Yes this was really an under the radar acquisition. There's a reason for that. Every other GM knew that he stinks.

Most people don't even remember that the Orioles actually led that game 3-0 at one point. The hilarious part is, because Wes Littleton came in at 6-3 and pitched the rest of the game, he got a save.

[RedSoxNC84]

I don't get it with Melancon, before, he looked as though he may have had the stuff to have been able to get the hang of it. Now he looks like he's throwing women's fast pitch out there.

Only in Little League

Only in Little League

 

I'm pretty sure that's what Melancon thought he was pitching in a few minutes ago.

Melancon ERA 49.50 ' date=' I think I could do better than that[/quote']

 

Is that his real ERA?

[RedSoxNC84]

Only in Little League

 

Even if you have a little league pitcher on the mound for the Red Sox?

It is unreal how bad he has been. Slow start maybe? I hope so, but I don't think so.

[Station 13]

Is that his real ERA?

 

No it's 1000000000000000000.00

[Northern Star]

Hooray for Justin Thomas. What's he do? Comes in and throws a wild pitch.

[VA Sox Fan]

Even if you have a little league pitcher on the mound for the Red Sox?

 

[jung]

Now does that look like a top level left side or what????? Looks more like a new pinball game over there.

 

Lets go to the arcade and play..... "Red Sox left side".

[redsoxrules]

Is that his real ERA?

 

Yes

[Youk Of The Nation]

Baseball is pretty much the only reason I get up in the morning and the only reason I haven't fed myself into a woodchipper, and the Red Sox are making a very good case for me to go through with it anyways.

 

If they're still playing like this at the ASB, look for me on the news.

[iortiz]

We are playing like a bush leaguer team; this is embarrassing, call it game and play tomo.

[NativeBostonian]

Yes

We could do better with a little league star.

[RedSoxNC84]

I wonder if that screaming guy will post a video about this game too.

[Youk Of The Nation]

Wow, another out. Justin Thomas is my new favorite Red Sox player.

 

I never want to see Melancon again.

[RedSoxNC84]

Melancon's ERA should net him a clubhouse beatdown.
