5/23 @ Toronto

Clayton Richard stinks though. I don’t think he’s a great pitcher.

 

Fair point. Our offense is just so inconsistent.

[d-money]

Well Weber is doing his job surprisingly but not the offense.

[Slasher9]

offense at a disadvantage after a quick turnaround. these guys are usually still sleeping at this time.

Ryan Freakin' Weber!

[Slasher9]

Rafi!!!

[moonslav59]

Rafael Freakin' Devers!

[Slasher9]

Pearce!!

[TylerD]

Well there’s a couple beauties in a row! 3-1!

[vegasbob]

Good to see Steve Pearce maybe waking up his bat. A credible PH'er on occasion can help, especially when we go back to interleague play.

[Slasher9]

short leash with this weber kid now Cora. 1 base runner limit.

[YastrzemskI]

Weber is a pleasant surprise today. Nice if he could give us six innings.

Clayton Richard is actually a pretty good pitcher, but he lost a couple seasons to Thoracic Outlet Syndrome...

Weber's soft offerings gets something done that many of our fireballers cannot do---keep the ball inside the yard. Very effective 6 innings and with a 3-1 lead, ready for 9 outs from the BP. Sounds familiar ? Same situation as last night. Let's see who can do it today

Ryan Weber!!!!! Nice job👌🏽

I start the 7th with Weber.. anyone gets on, I take him out.

[Slasher9]

if Cora trots him out for the 7th that will be a yuuuuuge mistake.

[YastrzemskI]

Jbj!!! Yes!!!

[vegasbob]

Nobody is commenting on Thornburg's trip to the IL ? Listed as hip impingement but I'm guesssing he may be missing in non-action for awhile for general ineffectiveness, maybe a continuation from the Thoracic Outlet surgery, that Notin notes affected Clayton Richard.

[YastrzemskI]

Red Sox starting to get going here.. nice to see.

[vegasbob]

Sox are whacking the ball now. Elvis is not a good pitcher so let's not trade Chavis for him.

[vegasbob]

This series can't be rated as pretty, but if they can get 3 road wins out of 4 it helps following the Rays and Yankees. Men on 2nd/3rd with no outs and Bogey/Devers/Pearce can't score them makes you wonder.

[TylerD]

A 3 run lead. The bullpen can’t possibly mess this up.... can they?

[notin]

Travis Larkins can

[Slasher9]

needed that bounce.

[a700hitter]

A 3 run lead. The bullpen can’t possibly mess this up.... can they?

Surely, you jest.

[TylerD]

Good play by Devers and nice stretch by Chavis! Could have been a goalie.

[vegasbob]

If they ever have a foul ball hitting contest at the A=S game, I'm entering Benintendi. He can foul with the best of them, but can't challenge the king---Brett Gardner

[d-money]

Taking 3 out of 4 would be nice but the fact of the matter is that we haven’t gained any ground because the skankees keep playing s***** teams. They have the royals up next. It seems like the schedule makers did them a lot of favors playing a lousy schedule in the first half. Ours has been tougher.

[vegasbob]

6 hits today from Nunez, Pearce and Bradley. The stats are exploding in the right direction. Vaz is reverting, however. Encouraging to take 3 of 4 with JDM out of commission.

[jung]

Weber did a heck of a job controlling the Jays today. The newer "W's" to our pitching staff have really made contributions so far.
