8/9 @the Tribe

[NativeBostonian]

I like Miller. He looks like Jesus.

[NC Sox Fan]

I've lost count. How about you?

 

I'm starting to view this season as a test of my faith.

All I have to say is thank god the Patriots are back.

[SoxFanForsyth]

Whewww. I don't know. I think that may have gone right over the front corner of the bag.

[NativeBostonian]

Never seen someone jumping into a dugout.

[SoxFanForsyth]

When Ortiz returns Ciriaco should be the everyday SS.

[NativeBostonian]

Have I mentioned how much I like Pedro?

[Station 13]

He comes a K, ground out and ground out squander. <_>

[a700hitter]

Have I mentioned how much I like Pedro?

He seems to hit the ball hard and put it in play almost every AB. He hits to all fields. With a little more patience, I think he could be a very solid offensive full time performer.

[a700hitter]

He comes a K' date=' ground out and ground out squander. <_ stomping on the little hope we have. src="//d1mqtyoopj0gsc.cloudfront.net/emoticons/default_wink.png" alt=";)">

There' s the k...

[SoxFanForsyth]

How the f*** do you call that 1st pitch to Crawford a strike?!?

[NC Sox Fan]

Unmitigated Cluster!

[a700hitter]

He comes a K' date=' ground out and ground out squander. <_ there it is.>

[Station 13]

I HAVE NO WORDS

[SoxFanForsyth]

This team never ceases to amaze me.

[NativeBostonian]

Even better than a k. We make sucking look like a skill.

I know V is strapped for bullpen help right now and once more I am stuck really unable to discredit V for situations that really do cost this team games.

 

Yea I tend to hate his lineup "hunches" because they usually involve sitting a kid that is playing really well and reinserting one of the vets that has basically been underperforming most of the year.

 

I guess I really have to hang this one on BC....the FO f***s it up again.

 

V appears to be forced to leave the starter in hoping against hope that they can hang onto a lead when really in many cases the starter has been struggling all game long and needs to come out. But V has nobody to go to....not really. So he is stuck.....just completely stuck.

 

Here we have Felix...with a lead...can't hold it and now we are down 4-3. this cluster f*** of a 7th inning did not help any. But in truth do I really think the Guardians are done at 4 runs....I doubt it.

All you can do is laugh at this point.

[NativeBostonian]

I'll be back guys. I'm going to watch the bad news bears. I need to watch a better team before a cry.

[SoxFanForsyth]

I've never wanted to punch a group of 25-30 grown men in the face as much as I want to this group of players.

 

Say what you want about whether or not the sellout streak is legit (hint: it's not), but even so, Fenway is packed to the brim almost every single night. From a rainy, 42 degree night in early April to a humid, 97 degree day game in August, the fans absolutely go nuts for this team.

 

The fans deserve better than this complete f***ing hack of a ******** team. And it's not just this year. It's the past 3 years. And it likely won't be changed next year, either. The problems on this team are locked up.

[a700hitter]

If we lose this series to the horse s*** Tribe, this will officially be rock bottom, and we can finally give up our last shred of hope.

[NC Sox Fan]

I wonder if the Japanese song that they were plying during the mound visit was somehow insulting to Tazawa.

[NativeBostonian]

She bangs she bangs oh baby when she moves she moves she crazy.

[a700hitter]

They should play music that is insulting to all of our players. They deserve to be insulted.

[jung]

Well when you see them like this...cry is more like it....$180M budget and V is forced to keep struggling starters in the game because the pen is tapped out. I will grant that the pen is tapped out because our starting pitching sucks. However what is that....news to BC? It has sucked all season. This day was bound to come sooner or later and in fact it came last year as well.

 

What the f*** do they have to see in that FO to at least respond to what the hell is going on in games, on the field. OK so they did nothing at the deadline that says they were willing to bias their planning toward improving the team's prospects after this year. Well that sucked and I did not like it...not many of us did. However I just don't know which is worse anymore...nothing done at the deadline or nothing done to content with a situation that was just sitting there waiting to come apart.

 

If you are going to acknowledge that the starting pitching sucks and even LL today was willing to admit that the starting pitching is the biggest problem the team has, what do you think eventually happens to the bullpen? What..... they are just going to continue to be able to come in game after game after game and pitch from about the 5th inning on without finally succumbing.

 

They are not only not going to make the post season, they are going to crash and burn AGAIN this year. The only difference is that they are not going to crash and burn from 1st place. They are going to plummet into the basement from their current 5th. Now they no longer have a pen to support their sucky starters. What the hell are we going to be left with? A few 12-8 wins to run out the season.

[SoxFanForsyth]

I wish they'd put in a LHP so that Salty wouldn't hit.

[NativeBostonian]

Take one for the team.

[SoxFanForsyth]

Why the f*** do you let Salty hit here?!?!? WHY f***ING VALENTINE WHY?!?!?!

[mvp 78]

WMB has garbage plate discipline...
