9/29 vs Astros - the CLINCH

[moonslav59]

HRam had a chance to redeem himself.

 

Nope!

[NativeBostonian]

Hanley sucks.

[Station 13]

Ramirez is done. No place to play him after that.

[d-money]

I just want to finish ahead of the Yankees. Both teams are going to lose v Houston or Cleveland, but finishing ahead of the Yankees would make it less painful.

 

I think we can beat those teams but this team just doesn't have any toughness. I miss those sox teams.

[oldtimer]

Must score here.

 

Runners at 2nd and 3rd and no one out. Heart of the order up. Unable to score more than one and that on a ground ball to the infield. Tough way to squander a chance.

Thanks, Ben.

What basis do you have for thinking the Sox can overpower Houston or Cleveland? I just don't see it.

It's f***ing typical of this team. The lack of clutchness on this team sucks.

Pitching and timely hitting. Pitching always beats hitting. Anything's possible in the playoffs but this team just doesn't have in them.

Devers error puts Price in a tough position. Two others tonight a quality 3rd baseman might have gotten. Good hitter but not good fielder. Maybe Marrero or Lin at 3rd and Devers at DH.

[Station 13]

Thanks, Ben.

 

There's no coming back for Boob and Hanley.

[oldtimer]

Price is doing the job and putting the Sox in a position to come from behind. Need some bats to wake up.

[bowman]

I said a long time ago, no way near enough fire power in this line up. Anything can happen once the playoffs start, but I didn't like this line up since before the trade deadline. No true power guy in this ball park is a big mistake. It won't matter for this year anyways if our starters don't pick it up...

[Maxbialystock]

Leon K's three times and looked really bad all three times. I mean totally helpless.

[Maxbialystock]

So Rajai says, "I gotta help my buddy Leon. I'll look even worse."

[d-money]

Another lousy inning. Tomorrow's basically D day for this team should they lose tonight. If they lose tomorrow they will be swept on Sunday.

Team leader in HRs being tied for 81st spot just doesn't cut it.

Your right. He is a rally killer in the lineup. What happened to the guy who hit so well at the early stages last year?

This team just sucks dicks. Another postseason sweep and hopefully they clean house with the whole staff. Some of these players deserve blame as well.

[Station 13]

Leon, JBJ, Hanley, cannot get so many at-bats next year.

[Northern Star]

Another lousy inning. Tomorrow's basically D day for this team should they lose tonight. If they lose tomorrow they will be swept on Sunday.

 

I don't see how they can start

regardless of tonight's result

[Northern Star]

So far the pitching has come through tonight against this behemoth lineup. Offense had a chance for the lead and blew it.

[d-money]

Team leader in HRs being tied for 81st spot just doesn't cut it.

 

2014 giants and 2015 royals. Those teams didn't have a lot of pop. It's doable but this team just flat out has no clutch factor in their bones.

[Northern Star]

Leon, JBJ, Hanley, cannot get so many at-bats next year.

 

Who cares about the backup catcher?

[Station 13]

Who cares about the backup catcher?

 

He's still the starter right now. That can't repeat next year.

[Station 13]

Xander cannot lay off that s***.

[Station 13]

Benni needs to get the f*** out that 3-hole

[mvp 78]

FU Holt

[Station 13]

Fire Farrlell

 

asswipe!!!

[oldtimer]

Benni needs to get the f*** out that 3-hole

 

Another wasted opportunity. Beni takes two over the plate and swings at one above the letters. What is the thinking there. Then Holt tries to steal with Mookie at bat. Holt is no burner and Mookie just might have done something. Keep failing when opportunities arise.
