5/21 vs M’s

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

It's gotta be Matt Strahm.

 

Seriously, I know it's still early, but it would be great if Strahm could be the SOX version of Hader.

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

I hate it when Devers proves he's only human.

It's only the 6th...

Robles is a guy whose numbers don’t tell the story about how bad he is actually pitching. And his numbers aren’t even that good…

[vegasbob]

This would be the inning to unload and put this game away. Getting a little deep into the pen , so 3 runs would help

Thank you for seeing that he is a thrower, not pitcher. Always was for the Angels.

Strahm has been terrific, but much like Whitlock/Greg Maddux comparisons, time will change your mind here…

[5GoldGlovesOF,75]

Schreiber for the 8th.

 

Could we possibly see Strahm after that for the 785th day in a row?

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

It will be international news when the Yankems' German pitches to the M's France.

... uh-uh; each was signed by teams that played in Boston!

Time is a snitch; it will always tell.

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

Schrieber continues to be a pleasant surprise.

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

Good news: Franchy triples

Bad news: Barnes active in BP

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

deVAZtating!

[5GoldGlovesOF,75]

This is all Youk's rally headband

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

Strahm will close, if I was the manager. But, then again, is he available? I don't remember if he pitched on Thursday.

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

Barnes is mathematically due for a good outing.

[5GoldGlovesOF,75]

The Sox will either win in the 9th or lose in extras. The board will either be happy or blow up tonight and tomorrow.

[5GoldGlovesOF,75]

Announcers are trying to straightforward their words and not reveal any emotion whatsoever... even as company men.

[5GoldGlovesOF,75]

One out. Now they're cautiously optimistic...

[Jasonbay44]

I don’t care if it works, why the f*** would Matt Barnes be Cora’s choice?

[5GoldGlovesOF,75]

Cora is on the bullpen phone, ordering pizza for after.

[5GoldGlovesOF,75]

I don’t care if it works, why the f*** would Matt Barnes be Cora’s choice?

 

The CBO didn't give him a choice.

[5GoldGlovesOF,75]

Smoked. Now announcers are even less optimistic. He has no fastball.

[5GoldGlovesOF,75]

France will crush any heater near his bat.

[5GoldGlovesOF,75]

Holy hanging curve!

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

Kike and JBJ throw some leather.

[5GoldGlovesOF,75]

Barnes saved the game!

[vegasbob]

Gotta love Matt Barnes, my man

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

No fun when the opposition's best hitter is up with 2 outs against the SOX worst reliever.

It was the best against the worst, and, lo and behold, the worst won.
