8/21 @ Astros

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

This game just magnifies how terrible a team the Yankems are.

If Paxton has to get 4 or 5 outs every inning, he will not last very long .

Where the hell do you think the SOX would be right now if they didn't have Paxton. Btw, the word 'sucks' loses all meaning when it's used hundreds of times and mostly used incorrectly.

 

I think they would have been a non playoff team-just like they are now. But maybe we would have had an extra prospect for when the team is relevant again

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

Wearing down how?

 

 

Some questions aren't worthy of an answer. Just continue with your informative posts.

Have you looked at his innings pitched? He’s a tall pitcher give me a break dude. It’s not like he’s lean small frame pitcher.

This doesn’t look like a pretty performance by Paxton.

[vegasbob]

Hitting nothing but bullet shots to our weakest fielders. Paxton is quickly giving this back

[d-money]

Let’s hope he gets out of this down 1 run.

[d-money]

Could have been worse but Paxton still terrible.

They are teeing off on him but to be fair he’s had to watch a bunch of clowns in the field.

Compared to the 'pretty' performance by the SOX defense(?).

It’s been a goose egg all around.

So Paxton has to have bullets shot at RF, CF, and SS.

Paxton at 56 pitches for 2 innings, but about 9 outs worth. He was also awarded a WP on a ball McGuire made a weak effort to block.

I think the Yankee series lulled them into thinking that they are a good team.

 

Yankees are on a free fall. They've been trash for a month. We will see how good the Sox in the next 10 days

We won’t make the playoffs most likely but the good news is that we will probably finish ahead of the Yankees.

[vegasbob]

2 innings of LOBsters will come back to haunt

[illinoisredsox]

Base may have prevented a bunt double.

[redsoxrules]

Javier sucks tonight. Constantly behind on counts

Javier sucks tonight. Constantly behind on counts

 

He’s had a rough last 10 starts.

[NativeBostonian]

Might be in luck. Javier sucks too.

[FredLynn]

Gotta make good on this.

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

A 3-0 bunt for a single. In the words of Jack Buck "I can't believe what I just saw."

Like I said above, if it doesn’t hit the base, it may have been a bunt double.

[NativeBostonian]

Oh for f*** sakes. Smh

[Tedballgame]

From close to 3 run jack to a strike out.

[illinoisredsox]

We’ve seen this movie before.

[vegasbob]

Dugo, do not rollover into a DP !! Thank you

[illinoisredsox]

From close to 3 run jack to a strike out.

 

You could see that coming as soon as it that ball went foul.

[FredLynn]

No runs.

I say we win just 2 of the 7 games coming up against the Astros.
