8/27 Oreos

[d-money]

What a f***ing embarrassing series! Stankees taking care of business and this team's choking. Farrell's a goner. They take the personality of their manager.

[Jasonbay44]

Davis speed is legit.

[Jasonbay44]

Well that's a quick way to make sure we don't score this inning.

[a700hitter]

Sure give away outs on the base paths when you have trouble getting runners and you are down 2-0. More Farrell stupidity.

[TylerD]

Like does this offense give zero f***s lately or???? I'm not understanding what's happening the last few games.

We are just too inconsistent at the end of the day. One week we look like we are right there with the Dodgers and the next week we are bottom of the barrel.

[Maxbialystock]

Close game after 4 with 3 key events--Orioles timely hits in 1st inning, HanRam K with men on 2d and 3d and one out in the 1st inning, and Miley gift K in the 3d when a BB would have loaded the bases--curve was not only outside, but was in the same place as an earlier curve that was called a ball. So Miley and the Orioles caught a break, but they earned those 2 early runs in the same inning our clean up guy killed us.

No excuses for this team though. They going through the motions. Where the f***'s the urgency?!

[Maxbialystock]

I've defended Farrell endlessly, but entirely agree losing managers are under the gun and should be.

[MADSTORK]

Im not defending Farrell. BUT, Pedroia Bradley Price out. You have a young 3B, 3 for his last 26. A perennial all-star shortstop who hasn't hit a lick since May. They have many young players and with that comes in-consistency..

 

Like a few posters have said. Where is Brentz vs LHP?

[Maxbialystock]

Nice K on the cutter by Fister. He's a pitcher. Easily the best start in four games.

[Spudboy]

Wage f***ing Miley is beating the Sox.

 

The world is off it's axis.

[Station 13]

Today they are competitive at least

[TylerD]

They absolutely define inconsistency. If this is the start of the year no problem. You assume they will work out the kinks. But with playoffs around the corner and playing the likes of Cleveland and Houston. This team is doing nothing to show me they can beat either of those teams in a series. A few weeks ago I would have said at least we will get one win with Sale pitching but with his last couple of starts. Even that I am not too comfortavle saying.

[Station 13]

Hanley took one in the mid section and stayed in. That is nutting up. Now can other nut up and hit Miley?

[MADSTORK]

Brentz vs LHB this season 1060 OPS with 8 Hr's - CYoung 91 AB's 1 HR and a .250 SLGpct = Priceless!

[bosoxmal]

The Sakty diagrua of the mouth drone is getting too much for me. Don't the BESN people understand what they have?

[Jasonbay44]

Brentz vs LHB this season 1060 OPS with 8 Hr's - CYoung 91 AB's 1 HR and a .250 SLGpct = Priceless!

 

Yeah, because MLB and AAA competition is exactly the same!

[Maxbialystock]

Like a few posters have said. Where is Brentz vs LHP?

 

Noted. But I have to say Price would be starting instead of Fister, which means Sale, Porcello, and Erod would still have stunk things up. Price's last start was over a month ago, and since his departure overall the Sox have prospered. In his 4 starts since Price went on the DL, Fister has had 4 quality starts. So I honestly don't think Price would have made much of a difference. Today is his 5th start and has the markings of another QS.

 

Similarly, I love Pedroia too, but Nunez, his replacement, was one of the reasons for the great run in August.

[Jasonbay44]

Oh sweet, Hanley up again with RISP

[Maxbialystock]

Now 0 for 5 with RISP. Can HanRam be the man?

[Maxbialystock]

Fastball a foot inside for a swinging strike. Make that two even though the second one was a strike.

[Jasonbay44]

He's up 2-0 and swings at a horrible pitch. Why Hanley Why

I am fine with losing a competitive game. We have injuries that's for sure. But what I am not fine with is how the offense goes from a powerhouse to nearly getting shut out for days on end. Sales last two stars have been atrocious and Porcello was horrible his last start too. It just seems wen this team starts having a melt down they burn completely. Again I'm fine with inconsistency especially with injuries. But this is the time you have to battle through with playoffs around the corner. And a lot of that falls on the Manager. There is still time to figure this s*** out but it's frustrating.

[Jasonbay44]

Come on Chris Young, we need a hit here

[Maxbialystock]

Bases loaded, Young to the plate. I'm hopeful.

[Jasonbay44]

Jesus Christ, this team should be hammering this scrub and keep letting him off the hook.

[Bellhorn04]

5 innings of choking doggery.

[jimbob728]

I think it is time to replace Salty with David Ross once again. the worst f***in broadcaster ever. How many f***in times can he say "try not to do too much". I am waiting for him to say "bold strategy Cotton!"

[bosoxmal]

I can't count the times Salty has come out with, "he's not trying too do too much" And they aren't doing too much. What a jerk! Somebody please tell Hanley he's "not trying to do too much!
