7/29 @ Mets

[Sox75]

Let's be LUCKY, rather than good, the rest of this season.

[Sox75]

Twice he saved runs that inning.

 

Devers didn't get the out, but that was some excellent glove.

 

TOUGH play at first after the all out dive.

[mvp 78]

Never in doubt

[Sox75]

Really liking Vaz!

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

OK, take the win at any cost.

 

But not at the cost of our friendship, Vegas.

[TylerD]

Let’s win two in a row. That would be neat.

WOE! Let's put the breaks on that type of irrational exuberance! That's the type of over your skis investing that almost brought this country to its knees in 07!

 

Check yourself there laddy!

[moonslav59]

Nice!

 

I was beginning to wonder just how bad it might get.

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

Let’s win two in a row. That would be neat.

 

Won the game and also broke deGrom's runless streak. WIN WIN.

Reverse lock mojo at it's finest

Reverse lock mojo at it's finest

 

Arguably a true reverse lock would have been DeGrom against one of our other "starters" that you'll be blessed to see over the next 4 games.

Damn! We're just 4 losses shy of a PERFECT SEASON, and it's almost August!!! Who would have predicted this??

[Maxbialystock]

Hard to read this thread and remain the pessimist that I invariably am inclined to be. Still, the pitching stats seem to favor pessimism. Eovaldi had another good start (albeit 5 innings), giving up 2, and the bullpen gave up 3 runs in 4 innings, with the set up guy Barnes and the closer Workman looking especially weak.

 

splendidsplinter says to treat this season as a longish spring training. Best assessment I've read.
