5/28 Indians at Red Sox

[jung]

Hand gets Mookie to 0-2 and then chickens out only to throw it right down the middle to the hottest hitter on the team. I don't care that he is a LH hitter, he is still the hottest hitter on this team.

[jung]

Go ahead Hand, throw him another right down main at 3-2

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

A 3 run dinger would make me and Earl Weaver very happy.

[Swiharts Ghost]

Please do this

You could try to write this game off as just one of those "baseball" things that happen. But, I would say it is a clear indictment of DD to think that a junk squad bullpen and some retread veterans ( Pearce, Nunez) could stay very competitive for the season. They are relying on guys like Chavis for whom they did not plan to promote until September.

 

What should Cora have done in the 9th. The FO gives him chicken shits and expects chicken salad . Cora leaves the so-called MLB level throwers out there to show Dombrowski, you give me crap, I give losses.

 

The players will say you brush it off and line up tomorrow. That works for them. For the organization as a whole, this game highlights some real shortcomings they will need to deal with.

[Swiharts Ghost]

Losing his release point now

[jung]

Workman should have had the ninth tonight period

 

Work might be the guy that is hurt or unavailable. When was the last time we actually saw Work?

[Swiharts Ghost]

Didn't throw 1 strike to him ....horrible at bat

[Swiharts Ghost]

Not a strike

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

Is F'ingUmp one word?

It is on DD to get some lock down arms in the bullpen. His hand has been forced because we are in danger of falling out of the Divisional race because Cora decided to give the Starting pitchers the month of March off.

[jung]

Has Cora had nobody up this whole time? What the f*** is wrong with NESN? NESN seems stunned that we can actually lose baseball games.

[Swiharts Ghost]

JD this is why we got you to cover Coras ass

You're kidding right ? Workman pitched the 7th tonight

7th inning.

Xander and JD WTH ...loss is squarely on Cora Edited May 29, 2019 by Swiharts Ghost

[moonslav59]

Worst loss in a long, long time.

[jung]

Unbelievable....we can now start our Farrell tally of games lost by Manager for Cora. Heck add the ST Rotation debacle with the games Cora has botched since and he is running up a heck of a tally for himself.

[Swiharts Ghost]

this team sucks without a closer Suuuuuuucks

[YastrzemskI]

In the grand scheme of things today’s game didn’t matter. This pen is worthless. It’s a shame because other than the pen this team is darn good. What a debacle this was. Cora and DD need to make some decisions.

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

That loss is going to leave a mark.

[Maxbialystock]

Zach Plesac 0-0 vs. David Price, 2-2, 3.24 ERA. If the rain holds off.

 

Next time have the good sense not to usurp someone else’s right to start the game thread. You are bad news.

[a700hitter]

Screw the post game show. I am not interested in Cora's rationalizations and excuses. He f***ed this game up big time. Brasier blew up the game, but then he replaced him with a real bush leaguer.

[jung]

7th inning.

 

OK thanks....did not wake up from snooze till Barnes came in for Walden. Missed the 7th entirely. That by the way is another thing the crack [of my ass] NESN broadcast crew never gives us is the sequence from starter through the relievers through the night.

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

When a pitcher is getting paid a million dollars per start, he should be able to go 7.

[illinoisredsox]

Would have DFA that slob months ago .

 

Non-responsive. How would YOU have handled the 9th?

[vegasbob]

Walden, Barnes, Brasier and Lakin used 62 pitches to get 6 outs. Gave up 5 runs, 5 hits, 2 HRs, 5 walks and 1 K WTF. Mark down tonight as the one loss that may cost you come September 30

[Swiharts Ghost]

How with this market is Brazier closing a game everrrrrrrrr again here How ????and how the hellll do you not go get Craig tonight huh ??? Money ??? Luxury tax ?? I dropped freaking tons of cash already on this team .Get your freaking checkbook out and get Craig . Edited May 29, 2019 by Swiharts Ghost

[Station 13]

Brasier blows another. He has cost them 4-5 games. All via the HR. Don't forget JBJ robbed a walk off HR to save Brasier ass.

[a700hitter]

This is the second time that we have had a game thread violation. The mods need to impose a ban.
