May 7th Red vs White

[bmattioli]

Painful..

[iortiz]

There we go…

[iortiz]

Again. Let Houck close goddamit!

[notin]

And Devers not guarding the line…

[notin]

Another blown save. But when was the last time the Sox had a lead and it wasn’t a save situation?

[jung]

Robles against a LH hitter in the 9th with runners on....just book the run. Lucky that was not worse.

[moonslav59]

I'd say this can't be happening, but sadly it's come to be expected.

[5GoldGlovesOF,75]

Maybe they should just stop calling it a blown save, and in the 9th call it what it really is: blown game.

 

What really blows is that we all know if the Red don't walk it off in the bottom, the White ghost will score for sure in the 10th.

You can’t continue to walk the lead off man in close games. That has happened all year. Edited May 7, 2022 by Tedballgame

Robles does not have the control of his pitches consistently, so is not a fit for closer

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

Have to believe that Kike leads the AL in pop-outs.

[5GoldGlovesOF,75]

NESN booth right now trying to differentiate levels of suckitude in Boston blown games.

Yes because Cora believes the 10th belongs to Barnes…

[5GoldGlovesOF,75]

Who do we have off the bench that can end this? Moreland? Nunez? Carbo?

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

When Dulbec is used as a PH, you know this is a badly managed team.

[jung]

Bobby D looks good in the batters box.....until the pitch is thrown.

[moonslav59]

Watching the third strike, when this guy has been calling borderline pitches strikes all day is maddening.

 

Then, the harmless pop out.

 

Snake bite season.

[notin]

Have to wonder why less K-prone Arroyo didn’t bat for Dalbec

[Tedballgame]

Moon, Still think it’s too early to criticize Dalbec?

[bmattioli]

You can't make this s*** up

[notin]

So… Pollock on second with Abreu, Robert and Grandal due up.

 

If Cora brings in Barnes it’s probably time to fire him…

[Tedballgame]

Dalbec needs to go to AAA TONIGHT!!!!

[notin]

I did not want to be right about this. I really, really didn’t…

[oldtimer]

All that was needed is a bat on the ball to the right side. Time to consider a change.

[d-money]

This team is finding new ways to lose games. It’s flat out embarrassing.

[moonslav59]

It's like Groundhog Day- the movie!

Nope, wait til the end of the season. You know how magical the SOX are with a first year manager.

[moonslav59]

Bringing in Barnes in the 10th is not really a new way to lose, though.

[5GoldGlovesOF,75]

Barnes vs. Abreu? Barnes isn't good in back-to-back games when he's "right" and the Red Sox have been looking to "get him right" since last August.
