4/05 Sox at Diamondbacks

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

This might bring some anger out. This is past humiliating.

 

In the words of Daffy Duck "They're despicable."

[ilredsoxfan]

I know they do that, but having it so a Friday is an off day still seems screwy to me.

It is because the season started on a Thursday and not a Monday or Tuesday. That is what got them into screwy scheduling with weekend off days

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

I hope we don't face this team in the WS.

[TylerD]

Comeback coming.

I even read it in his voice lol.

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

Getting shitstomped by a team projected to finish last by a strong margin in their division is pretty bad

 

Well, the Yankems still have a ton of money to waste on that albatross known as Giancarlo.

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

Comeback coming.

 

I'll have what he's having.

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

SWI has been a bright spot with his bat. Got to give him more playing time. Whether at catcher or 1st base.

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

They should have brought Nunez in earlier.

[TylerD]

The booos are gonna be real at home.

[TylerD]

I'll have what he's having.

 

Rum and cola

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

If one wants to give this road trip a title, I would go with HOW THE WEST WAS LOST.

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

15-5. We're only losing by '1'.

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

The booos are gonna be real at home.

 

 

Rum and coke sounds like 'real booze' to me.

It feels like one of those years. Keep saying it’s too early. I have never seen a lifeless group and some of the most pathetic pitching i have ever seen. I am getting 2014 flashbacks!

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

Nunez, a pitcher who can run and hit.

I thought a step or two toward the Eastern Time Zone and a weaker opponent would help a lot, but not such luck. Maybe tomorrow.

It's too early for those flashbacks. At least wait until MAY.

Speaking of WS hangovers. I think the team that wins the WS should start the season at home. That way, they get the ring ceremony out of the way before the first game and they can concentrate on the current season.

That's exactly what this feels like... a hangover.

 

PS Nunez has a lower ERA than Porcello.

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

Of course, part of this team's lethargy is that they're all anticipating the excitement of visiting the white house.

True, but I think Rick is a better hitter.

No way. You can’t have this type of start in a division like the AL East. If they gonna turn it around they better do it quickly.

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

I was right. The SOX scored 7 runs, actually 8. I was also correct when I posted I wasn't sure 7 runs would be enough. Winner winner, chicken dinner.

[moonslav59]

I think Nunez has a better ERA than all our starters!

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

I think Nunez has a better ERA than all our starters!

 

But Moon, that's a sss. However, I do believe Nunez is a better option than Johnson.

[TylerD]

Well bats came alive. Pitching is the worst in baseball.

It's gonna take a lot of shutouts to get the team ERA anywhere close to respectable.

[Jasonbay44]

I mean.. At least some of the hitters got going I guess? Since the pitchers are going to suck regardless, Swihart should stay in the lineup for his bat.

[d-money]

Well at least the Celtics beat the pacers tonight and likely will clinch the 4th seed.
