5/6/15 vs Longoria and the Scrubs

[mvp 78]

@OverTheMonster: Eight games later, and Brock Holt's OPS has dropped a solid 280 points.

[Station 13]

Bench hitting like .100s (Victorino, Nava, Craig) what the hell is this?

[VA Sox Fan]

I'm inches away from losing my s*** with this team......... I think one more lost series and I lose my s***

 

Hang in there bro. It's still early but it does SUCK

[SoxHop]

The light hitting Rays do damage again to our pitching staff...........

[mvp 78]

@Shesta_Sox: Mookie Betts is the youngest Red Sox to hit 3 home runs in a span of 2 games since Joe Lahoud hit 3 homers in one game on 6/11/1969.

Ah yes. Joe LaHoud. The pride of Danbury, Ct..

 

I remember watching him when he came up. His batting stance was identical to Yaz's. Other than that, there was very little similarity.

[Palodios]

Boxberger is the Rays closer? Who is this guy?

[SoxHop]

straighten that out

[Northern Star]

Yankees lost, at least.

[Station 13]

Mookie AB are fun to watch.

[Palodios]

Pinchrunning Ortiz was probably the right call, but Luis Jimeniz does not seem like a promising option for the last out of the 9th inning.

[Northern Star]

Pal mojo sucks.

[NativeBostonian]

We can't keep losing these series.

[SoxHop]

Mookie AB are fun to watch.

 

The most fun I'm having with these games are watching the kids...... it's a promising future........

 

If JBJ panned out we would have been set for years........

[Station 13]

jesus, our veterans are weighing this team down.

[SoxHop]

Pinchrunning Ortiz was probably the right call, but Luis Jimeniz does not seem like a promising option for the last out of the 9th inning.

 

Why pitch hit Nava for Craig..... it's not like Nava is going to do better than Craig.

[SoxHop]

Calling it right now. Mookie with a walkoff.

 

So close . . .. . . . twice....

[jad]

JBJ is hitting .340 in Pawtucket. Why is he still there?

[Jasonbay44]

JBJ is hitting .340 in Pawtucket. Why is he still there?

 

Because Allen Craig is a God and needs his time to shine.

[SoxHop]

Because Allen Craig is a God and needs his time to shine.

 

Need to be gentle with JBJ...........

 

JBJ, Betts, and Ram in the outfield, leaves lots of money for SOME GOOD PITCHING...... . . . . .. Porcello already locked up.......

[User Name]

DFA Craig......I'm serious.

I want to see JBJ in RS uniform again. At least give him one more chance.

[Jasonbay44]

That's not even including Castillo, who I'd imagine has to be coming up soon..

[Jasonbay44]

At least with JBJ you are going to get elite defense.. and there is no way he can possibly be worse than Craig at the plate.

[mvp 78]

Craig >>>> Nava

[Bellhorn04]

This one was depressing.

[mvp 78]

@jtomase: Pedroia on RISP: "Guys that are horsesh*t right now with runners in scoring pos., that sh*t will change. Fact. So there’s your answer. Thx."

[Bellhorn04]

Man, WTF is up with the RISP. Didn't we suck all last year with RISP too? Sure is taking a long time to 'return to the norm', the old schooler in me says bitterly.

[Bellhorn04]

Pinch running for Ortiz was the book move there. It's weird though, it seems like most times we do it we get burned on it.

[SoxnCycles]

Well, that sucked.

Bases loaded and they can't score one lousy run?

 

These are the games where the improved offense is supposed to to be picking up the pitching staff.

All they're doing now is putting more pressure on the pitchers.

 

 

A series win would've been great, heading into a sucky road stretch.

 

But, noooooo....

 

Bastids.
