I won't lie and I know this will sound negative but even if we win the Division the Yanks have a far better chance in the playoffs than we do. They will beat Minnesota imo and give Houston a good series. I honestly don't know how Boston will stand a chance with how bad our pitching is lately. It took us every last run last night to win pretty much.

 

Farrell will be gone either way. You want results. Last year they got swept. If that happens again then he should be fired.

Amen !

Umm.. at least the Rays showed up tonight? I hope the Sox know that they can't depend on the Rays in the post season.

Anyone else think that this is a very significant thrashing?

The Astros have the better team but the better team does not always win in the postseason.

 

The Red Sox have a good club talented enough to advance to the postseason where anything can happen.

Crappy game and a spineless performance from rodriguez.

 

Pretty much our entire rotation has been god awful their last starts. All I hope now is that Boston doesn't get utterly embarrassed in the playoffs.

You would hope this team learned from that embarrassing display last year.

Sometimes a beat down like tonight ends up being a positive.

 

Yep, can't get a more pathetic all around perfromance than tonight.

 

Let's hope the weekend rotation becomes Fister, TBD, TBD.

Hahaha. Greatest first pitch ever.

Who is in the booth tonight?

This guy f***ing sucks

 

I watched him in the immediate pre-game spot and I said, "This guy is terrible". Then I watched the first few innings and knew that my first impression was RIGHT, so I went to the radio. My hope is that he'll always be remembered as "Carlos Pena, former Red Sox color man, briefly."

 

I loved OB, Remy and Eck. I felt like I was in a bar and eavesdropping on the three knowledgeable guys at the next table. Pena brings NOTHING to the booth.

He might not be what people want in the broadcast booth but he could pound that baseball. A big man who hit a bunch of big homeruns. We kind of lost out on his potential.

BD have to shake it off. Man it stinks that that this Houston Offense gets to see our Starters and Relievers just before the Play-offs. Don't need no Scouting Reports.

Yanks play at 1, so could be all wrapped up when we play. Hope that happens, then Pitch Velasquez, and whoever. Don't let Astros see Pomeranz and Sale.

Elias is getting a start in this series. Book it.

Amazing the Astros are more dangerous with RISP than bases empty. .294 with RISP and .277 bases empty.

.294 with RISP your going to score a lot of runs.

Only trouble is we have looked bad especially pitching the last week..... Astros undressed us for who we are..... An average team and if the pitching isn't there we are quite horrible. I doubt we get swept by them in the playoffs but the Sox have done nothing this last week to prove to me that we can win that series.

ERod got roughed up for sure. However, I don't think they'll be lucky enough to face Blaine Boyer in the playoffs next week.
