8/26 @ Tampa Bay

[Station 13]

JBJ is absolutely brutal seeing anything from his side over the plate. I would DH Porcello for him if permitted.

[royplayer]

This team’s in serious trouble right now. They’re just stinking up the joint.

 

Deja vu? Wouldn't be surprised if Snell no hits us today.

[Station 13]

Betts usually is a lefty killer, same as JDM. The only two that hits LHP with power. One is in a slump and a DH needs rest.

Cora seems to have a lot of faith that we will still win the division. When will our managers ever learn.

Disappointed JBJ pulled his head off the ball on that swing. His success has lately has come from thinking oppo every AB and only hitting to RF on a dead inside pitch. That was just the kind of swing that gets him into these long slumps and we do not need that right now.

[OH FOY]

If that kid Honeywell comes back from TJS, they are going to have 2 pretty good young Starters. Snell and Honeywell.

[Station 13]

These grounders are getting through quickly. Play the defense back.

[Station 13]

Every time Eovaldi gets a swing and miss, he follows up by giving up a hit on a hanging splitter or curveball.

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

After making a great 1st impression, EVO is now causing deep depression. Does the lemon law come into play so that the trade can be reversed?

[OH FOY]

I was saying on other thread we will definitely see Koppech next weekend.

[greenmonster24]

Jesus this team looks lost. What the heck wrong besides price the rotation sucking and offense is in a bad slump and losing Devers and Martinez and Benny the lineup lost lot of power

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

7 run rule again.

[d-money]

What an awful series. This team better right the ship soon or they will be the ones in the wildcard playing game.

[jung]

I will be surprised if they come back from this. They don't like playing here. That much is obvious and they are now down 5-0. I would love to see them turn this into a game. But it will be an extreme surprise if they do.

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

Now I wish the Yankems had gotten EVO.

[jung]

I would take Beeks back in a minute if we knew what to do with him. I would also just go ahead and give back the MFY game Evo won because that 4-0 sweep did not really do this team much good attitude wise.

[Station 13]

Brock Holt sucks.

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

This will be the 1st time the SOX have been swept this season.

[jung]

Thank God...If FB's are your pitch. You look for FB's. If you are having trouble hitting them...well that is just the way it is. But to stop looking for them is just death by a thousand cuts.

[d-money]

I was one hoping to get wheeler and boy was i right. Idk if he Mets where shopping him. If the Sox where interested.

[bmattioli]

This whole team sucks right now

[jung]

I just don't know how much more of Lyons I can take. Somebody gave him a Johnny Gomes transfusion.

[jung]

Can't let Snell get ahead in the count like this. 3-2 if fine. 2-2 is not. The guy just has too many 2 strike weapons to throw at you.

[Station 13]

Xander is pedestrian vs LHP, 1HR and a .262 BA.

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

Now that I think about it, have the SOX ever acquired a player from the Rays who wasn't a complete disappointment?

[jung]

OB..."Sox have got to get Evo back to where he was." I got the cure, get Sale and E back in the rotation. Evo has controlled nothing today. The Rays have hit whatever they want to hit off him.

[Thunder]

Well, at least it's football season.

Some of that has to do with the fact that they used to be his teammate.

Tampa's not sending us their best people.

[jacksonianmarch]

You guys are seeing what we saw for a couple years with Eovaldi. Amazing stuff, no walks, wild in the zone.
