6/1 Houston Astros

[Maxbialystock]

Sale ain't got his good stuff/command. Could be a bumpy night.

[d-money]

Is this team going to s*** the bed tonight as well? Chris sale needs to show up in these games.

[cp176]

can you believe it - Altuve hitting third - wow

[d-money]

Sale ain't got his good stuff/command. Could be a bumpy night.

 

This is a big game against a legit opponent and he’s gonna s*** the bed? Getting shades of David price

[d-money]

Come on sale. Pitch like you’re capable off.

Remember the espn article on how Trout is better than Mookie and talksox has an entire thread condemning that thought, especially because it's based on WAR? One thing WAR does is give credit for actual games played. Trout plays every day. Mookie doesn't. He has downright gaudy stats, especially OPS, but Beni has already passed in rbi's.

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

Wasn't that special?

[FredLynn]

Gotta block that Sandy....can't let that happen

[bmattioli]

Gonna be a long weekend..

[d-money]

Ridiculous. This offense better hit tonight. Limit the damage

WAR is going to favor a CF over a RF. It's as much as 1WAR+.

[Maxbialystock]

30 pitch first inning so far.

[FredLynn]

Gotta be concerned about Sale now....no control at all

[Maxbialystock]

It sure does. Nothing unfair about that.

[d-money]

Sale cannot allow that type of hit there. It might be a long series.

[Maxbialystock]

Sox absolutely showing their ass in Houston. Two stinking games in a row.

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

Everything about that inning sucked.

[FredLynn]

Sale cannot allow that type of hit there. It might be a long series.

 

I blame Leon for that inning more than anything...gotta be able to block that ball.

[jad]

C'mon Moon! This is all you got??

[d-money]

These Red Sox teams are starting to remind me of those braves teams. Won a lot of games but did diddly squat come the postseason.

 

Sale needs to pitch zeros. He’s supposed to be our money pitcher .

[Maxbialystock]

I blame Leon for that inning more than anything...gotta be able to block that ball.

 

It sure looked as though he was expecting a different location or a fastball instead of a slider. He waved at it.

Sale does not appear to be pitching with much confidence lately and Sale without confidence is not a pretty sight. Not real sure what is happening with him.

[Station 13]

Mookie is the type of hitter we need against a power pitching staff like the Astros.

Last season in the biggest stage he stunk. I really hope this guy’s not another David price.

[FredLynn]

Devers' act at the plate is getting old

[d-money]

Mookie is the type of hitter we need against a power pitching staff like the Astros.

 

It’s amazing how much this team sucks without a guy like mookie. I guess it shows the major flaws of this team.

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

The SOX should beat the teams they're supposed to beat. Unfortunately, none of those teams will be in the playoffs.

[FredLynn]

Thats two balls near the dirt Devers swung at.....I would sit him for a while.

[Maxbialystock]

Hilarious. Devers fights to get another chance so he can show his ass on two consecutive balls in the dirt.

[DontCallMeUncleRico]

Astros own us. As our team is constituted, we are going to get bounced early 3 years in a row.
