Yup too hard to put Moreland in the lineup. It's just impossible apparently. Peraza in LF?? LMFAO anything to keep Bradley and Moreland out of the lineup.

They're just showcasing Peraza, trying to alert studio scouts that he's worth someone's -- anyone's -- #60th man, right now stashed on some obscure, alternative diamond. The focus until the end of the month will be to try to get more than a bucket of BP balls in trade for anyone... at least, a dozen, unopened game balls.

 

The Sox are trying to contrive Peraza as a viable -- not a Swiss Army knife -- but a... spork.

[Thunder]

I will be watching my two other future hometown sports teams that are in action tonight. Let's just say I'm much more inclined to buy Celtics or Bruins season tickets than Red Sox season tickets right now, assuming I had the money

[TylerD]

Likely a loss.

[moonslav59]

We now have the worst winning percentage of any Sox team in history.

 

The cliff was real.

Likely due to the third LH pitcher this series keeping the LH batters off the field since they do struggle.

I remember all your posts a few years ago talking about Sale needing TJS and a global pandemic taking out ERod and two of the better relievers.

right because the Sox kick ass with that righty heavy lineup of minor leaguers and castoffs.

Kind of like the effectiveness of their infield shifts, and relief pitcher selection

[vegasbob]

Sloppy 2 out walk, Perez almost had a clean inning.

[mvp 78]

Ump sucks

[mvp 78]

Perez sucks too

[vegasbob]

Ump sucks

 

Has their been one yet this season who doesn't ? But 2 straight 2 outs walks also runs Perez's pitch count up early putting us into the bullpen by 5th inning

[mvp 78]

Not a clean inning

[mvp 78]

Little league Peraza catch

[vegasbob]

I'm real glad peraza looks like a combo of Manny and JDM in LF. Perez dodged a bullet there

[TylerD]

They didn’t get any runs with loses bases. That’s a win.

[vegasbob]

Either Tim Hyers is the worst hitting coach in MLB, or his guys cannot recognize low breaking balls. Fire Hyers , although it is more likely the latter

Been an issue for years under multiple hitting coaches; it’s on the players.

I feel like that's only a valid stat if we finish the season with that winning percentage. Not saying we will get better, but it might be a little early to be saying that

[vegasbob]

2 out, 2 strike pitching will burn you every time

No disagreement, they are really bad on chasing this year

[vegasbob]

Dig the hole early and often, ready for a Weber encore. He probably needs a day or two between 3 inning stints

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

You guys overrate this pitching staff by simply calling it the worst SOX pitching staff ever. This staff may be the worst of any ML team in recent memory.

[vegasbob]

3 offensive innings: 9 outs on 32 pitches. Impressive

Ahem. I don't think the umps are the problem tonight. There is a qualitative difference between these two teams so immense that, were this home plate ump actually, even deliberately calling pitches in the Sox favor, they would still lose comfortably.

I meant this to refer to vegasbob's earlier complaint about the ump.
