5/16 vs Angels

[d-money]

Maybe a 16-13 final score

 

 

Well they better start doing something offensively early.

You may be half right.

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

The BP can rest tomorrow.

[Maxbialystock]

A couple more runs, and Eovaldi's ERA will go over 5.

[moonslav59]

Who was it that wanted Eovaldi moved to closer?

 

Maybe when Whitlock is stretched out, Nate can be moved to a set up role.

 

[d-money]

Well this offense has to get to work and cut this lead down.

[moonslav59]

3 Ks for Nate,

[Maxbialystock]

Well, that's certainly something to shoot at--a 4 run deficit.

[Jasonbay44]

Quintana has been very hittable this season, hopefully Sox can take advantage of that

Absolutely not. Set up or closer, you need 2 good pitches, and Eovaldi doesn't even have 1. I am exaggerating of course because some days he does have good stuff.

May very well be a high scoring finish

[Maxbialystock]

Meanwhile, Quintana looks every bit of a MLB starter. He doesn't have Eovaldi's heat, but he has what Eovaldi doesn't have: good breaking stuff and command.

Way to respond Sox. Boy this is setting up like a typical getaway day. Bags packed. Already won the series.

[Maxbialystock]

Eovaldi covers 1b nicely.

[d-money]

Quintana is gonna look like a stud today.

I would love to know the last couple of years this team’s record when they have a chance to sweep a series. This was a letdown .

[d-money]

Do something offensively! Make this game interesting at least.

Well they have not lost just yet. But its difficult to sweep even against somebody like the struggling Halos when we are at the end of a home stand. Not sure this team does well with X on the bench. But they have to preserve him through the year. This is a game I would have picked to rest him also. He gets today and tomorrow off. Hard for Alex to resist that when he has already won the series.

 

That is what I get for showing up late for the start. X is DH today? Is that what broadcast crew is saying?

Two men on, don’t ruin this!!!

[Jasonbay44]

Like I said, Quintana is very hittable

[TylerD]

On the board.

He had an ERA of 9 coming in today....

[moonslav59]

Arauz con leche!

[moonslav59]

Time for top of the order damage!

[Jasonbay44]

Why is Chavis hitting lead off? Two terrible AB

With Verdugo out, there were no good options:

[Jasonbay44]

Chavis and devers can’t even put ball in play with a run begging to be scored. Great

[Jasonbay44]

Huge wasted opportunity

[moonslav59]

Time for top of the order damage!

 

Yuck,

[Maxbialystock]

With Verdugo out, there were no good options:

 

Baloney. Chavis is an embarrassment.

 

So too are Chavis and Devers at bats with a man on 3b and no outs and then one out.
