7/22 vS The Rays

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

Great night for E-Rod!

 

I definitely 2nd that.

[Tedballgame]

Welcome to the Red Sox bullpen Nathan!

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

Welcome to the Red Sox bullpen Nathan!

 

So far, he's fitting in. SSS.

[BOSOX11]

Is this Eovaldi or Kimbrel?

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

EO's MPH is encouraging..

[Tedballgame]

Warm up the bullpen.

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

8 runs should be enough?

[BOSOX11]

8 runs should be enough?

 

You'd think.

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

Closers tend to be ineffective in a non-closing role.

[YastrzemskI]

Eovaldi is fitting right in. Good. I was afraid he would stick out like a sore thumb. This is good for clubhouse morale.

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

The _______HP ump hasn't been much help. Please fill in the blank.

[Tedballgame]

They are burning Eovaldi for 2 or 3 days. Dumb.

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

EO's gonna have to grow a beard.

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

They are burning Eovaldi for 2 or 3 days. Dumb.

 

Better now than a one run game.

[d-money]

Crappy stuff from eovaldi here.

[notin]

8 runs should be enough?

 

New rules for save situation. Also, you don’t have to hold the lead...

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

Crappy stuff from eovaldi here.

 

It is his 1st appearance in a long time, but a fastball down the middle with no movement in MLB is considered batting practice

[illinoisredsox]

Pretty obvious Eovaldi needs reps. What’d he throw, 1 minor league rehab inning?

 

The stuff is there.

Nate has always challenged hitters. It is one of the things I like about him. He just does not have much to challenge them with at the moment. Still totally unsure how he will do in this role, whatever the f*** it is.

[TylerD]

Didn’t see it. Was putting my son to bed but Eovaldi sure didn’t have a nice night.

He’s rusty. It will come. Hopefully.

[Tedballgame]

Eovaldi only gave up 3 runs so he automatically becomes one of the best guys in the bullpen.

[illinoisredsox]

Exactly. But there are impatient posters here who demand perfection to start, and then improvement from there.

He becomes the closer. LOL!

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

This was the perfect game to reintroduce EO. Let's hope his next appearance is an improvement.

The bar is kinda low. In fact, it's underground.

[a700hitter]

Cash brings in a position player with an 8-3 score. What a buffoon!

[jung]

Lets see....the last O's game I figured I had a great new idea for MLB to market.

 

Now I think they should just change MLB to Barnum and Bailey's and Ringling Brothers Baseball.

 

What the game is doing to accommodate the lack of pitching is beyond laughable to sad.....just sad. That and the rocket ship are just about enough to do the game in.

[Slasher9]

But I was told he is the closer. Why bring in the closer in the 8th inning of an 8-0 game?

Oh yeah...WTF.

[TylerD]

Exactly. But there are impatient posters here who demand perfection to start, and then improvement from there.

 

Yup happens with every sport. Should have seen Colts fans when Luck struggled the first week. They were just as bad.
