10/2 Absolute End of Days vs Toronto

[vegasbob]

Wacky Wacha and his riotous Red Sox will engage Kevin Gausman in a game of baseball in Canada.

 

One of the objects of the game of baseball is to score points, called runs, a concept not terribly familiar to Boston since crossing the border.

 

With nothing at stake will our fearless 9+1 take the reins and pound the birdbrain Blue Jays into submission ? Don't bet on it.

The team will not be any weaker w/o Bogey and Devers today.

Incredible that Dalbec is the guy to get a 2 out hit, scoring 2 runs. This after Chang flails away at a 3-2 count, where the pitch that should have resulted in a walk, never came close to the strike zone.

 

Abraham Almonte has become interesting as a 33 year old journeyman who leads the Sox in BA and OPS, but with a very small sample size. Refsnyder, Pham, Almonte show the depth of the 4th OF'er on this team.

Sentiments like that will make John Henry's bankers and brokers very happy.

Dalbec leads the SOX in RBI in this series so far.

By an infinite factor.

 

TRADE CASAS! Bring BOBBY DEE BACK!

In recent history I can't remember a SOX team where there were so few players I want to bring back.

Iggy's son now pitching for the Jays. Facing a line-up that has no pop. Edited October 2, 2022 by SPLENDIDSPLINTER

Poor, poor Bloom! What did he sign up for?

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

Wacha getting wacked.

What did season ticket holders sign up for?

C'mon, Red Sox ...

What happened to Kevin Gausman?

 

Asking for a future opponent.

Another clown show from your favorite comedians. Can someone throw a pitch that Teoscar cannot hit ? Edited October 2, 2022 by vegasbob

Another add on to the SOX offseason shopping list should be a catcher. Wong is wrong as a back-up.

[moonslav59]

Wacha looks to be pitching his way out of a QO.

[vegasbob]

So glad JDM has figured out how to hit again now that it doesn't matter .

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

The SOX should have stayed Ortless in Toronto.

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

I thought JBJ caught it.

It's all elementary, my dear Watson. SOX don't take advantage of bad calls.

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

If the SOX are gonna be mediocre again next season, let's be mediocre with as many new players as possible. I'm extremely bored with this current team.

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

Another WOOful pitcher.

Wow! Could this be the guy to improve the pen next year? Stay tuned. 98mph was impressive.

Thank you for your support! -- C. Bloom and Henry's bankers.

J.A.N.L. --- Just another nothing loss. Put up little to no resistance to a playoff level team over a 3 game spread.

You do realize the Sox have a high payroll, right?

Ha. No he doesn't. He only likes up-beat, positive, Pollyannish folks like yourself.
