With a line-up like that who needs a pitcher?

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

EO vs R. Yarbrough.

 

Must be JBJ's birthday if he's leading off.

[vegasbob]

Travis, Hernandez, Owings and Centeno . 44% of the Pawsox last place team. I bet Worcester can't wait to see the stars of yesterday in the Sox system. These are your Boston Red Sox in a year where no one from the FO down to the 25th man gave a damn about performance, with the exceptions of Devers, Bogaerts and Rodriguez.

Tito sends his best wishes . He says , " Thanks a lot Alex , you son of a bitch ."

I’m watching the colts game but Sox offense looks good.

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

Meltdown on the mound. Send help quick.

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

s*** call by s*** HP ump. s*** HP ump; isn't that redundant? Doesn't just saying HP ump infer s***?

[jung]

Nate's pitches are just too flat. Movement beats straight velo every time. Nate's pitches have plenty of velo but not enough movement.

 

Why do we think Nate can't get anything past anybody!

[jung]

Look at that....flat curve that Meadows even fooled fouls off

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

That's a good explanation of why his career ERA is 4.19.

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

Might be showcasing the BP again today.

[TylerD]

10-0 colts. Just saying.

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

Might be showcasing the BP again today.

 

At least Bra Man and D-hern will be available today.

[jung]

My God My God My God. Who is that is supposed to pitch for the sox in 2020?

[TylerD]

Tampa climbing back slowly but surely.

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

My God My God My God. Who is that is supposed to pitch for the sox in 2020?

 

Just another albatross flying over Fenway.

[jung]

Looking like another premature ejaculation from the Sox offense today.

[jung]

That ball scooting through the Rays infield was not on Kiermaier. Why was the 2nd baseman trying to hold the bag with his foot? Go get the ball dummy. Its not a force play. Who was backing up the throw...the invisible infielder?

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

The thing about an albatross is that once you have one it's impossible to get rid of unless you swallow most of its food.

[Station 13]

This asshat would fit nicely into our pig pen.

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

Did the Rays obtain Kittredge from our farm system?

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

Wild pitch. It should be considered for the SOX 10th man award.

[TylerD]

6-3!

[Station 13]

6-3!

 

don't count your chickens before they hatch.

 

lots of games left. This game is a Kolten Brewer away from a 6-6 game an inning from now.

[Station 13]

I wonder how many hitting coach has JBJ gotten fired? Or they just quit?

[Station 13]

Hot Dog! Nathan's got a "QS".

 

 

the bar is low.

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

Except for that hot streak Travis had back in August, he's proven time & time again he's a AAAA ballplayer. I was rooting for him this year, but rooting wasn't enough.

[Station 13]

Corkys is probably a AAAAA player.

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

Nice quality start by EO today. I believe EO is an average starter who will probably have as many bad starts as good ones. At least that's what his history has been. The problem lies in the fact that EO's salary is not representative for an average pitcher.
