[OH FOY]

Old Fart walked through that door. hahaha

[mvp 78]

JBJ/Swihart at 1 and 2 is nightmare fuel.

[redsoxrules]

Wow, what a lineup.

I understand to give players a break but this team has not sealed the division nor home field.

They should not be giving away chance to pick up wins completely. Now they may still win this game but still.

You see how JDM and Betts has been lately. Those guys are on fumes. A day off is really needed. The division is over.

A million times this.

Sam Travis popping up a hanging pitch down the middle. He can't hit.

It’s a throwaway game by alex cora.

[d-money]

Come on pomeranz!!! Keep us in the game.

[d-money]

Not the way you wanna start an inning. I can’t stand pom pom.

[a700hitter]

Glad that number 0 is making a comeback. Phillips will be the 6th MLBer to wear that number in the past two years.

I only remember Al Oliver wearing it.

[d-money]

The game’s about to be over soon.

[iortiz]

I don’t think Pomeranz will make the POs.

[d-money]

Cora resting players is horseshit.

[a700hitter]

The downside if we win this game (and that may be the craziest thing I have said) is that Cora thinks this game is too easy -- that he can roll out any pile of s*** and it will win.

He just wants to rest a bunch of guys today and go full Voltron tomorrow. Makes sense to me.

[illinoisredsox]

Bad play by Moreland (take the out) and worse play by JBJ (had no shot at Acuna).

 

And who was wanting Pomeranz in the first inning after 6 pitches?

[d-money]

Plz DFA pomeranz!!!

LOL!

 

Call me greedy but I want to win all the games, or at least have a real shot. Today, we didn’t have a real shot.

A dog fart he is.

Rookie play by Bradley throwing to 3rd. Pom took him off the hook with the walk to load the sacks.

I don’t think Pomeranz will make the POs.

 

Of course he will. They are paying him too much and they need a lefty. Is he actually worse than Poyner or Scott? Now I do think Velazquez will get dumped in favor of Wright. Velazquez only goes because he has a flexible or resilient arm. I suspect Wright, if he works out can fill that bill.

[d-money]

Not with that lineup and putting this a hole pomeranz in the game.

[a700hitter]

Bases loaded and no outs with Suzuki-- damn I didn't play Fanduel today!

[illinoisredsox]

Pomeranz can take the pounding for a couple innings. Then its Cuevas and the rest of the callups time.

I rather Poyner than Pomeranz. Pom is done.

[a700hitter]

Disastrous outing and season by Pomeranz.

[jung]

So for once, the OF is not in that pinched/shift and the guy hits it into the gap. Of course he does. I wish we actually had a stat for how often the hitter beats all these complicated shifts without even trying. Other than either the SS or the 2nd baseman shading the hole up the middle, I am not sure it is really as effective as people think it is, at least not when it is deployed in some fashion for every tom, dick or larry with a bat in his hands.

[Station 13]

Pom is a loser.

[jung]

Be interesting to see where the MFY's are after this west coast swing. The A's are doing well. Hopefully the Mariners will have recovered from their in-team clubhouse fight by the time they get up to Seattle.
