7/14 vs Rangers

[Tedballgame]

What defense? 2nd and SS are really stretching that word.

 

That's what I meant. The defense messed up an easy DP. The defense is terrible as always.

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

Hard to stay contending with a 3 man BP.

Fuk Cora

 

WTF does any of that inning have to do with Cora. Sogard says he can't gut it out, Rafaela gets all excited and blows it, but not near as bad as Wink who allowed 2 hits to open the inning . He only can get 2 outs , never 3.

Devers has been good at 3rd, D. Smith has been good at 1st. Middle D is below average. Outfield D has been very good. Catchers have been average.

Booser out with a sore elbow, Bernie back. Pick your poison, AC, night after night Edited August 15, 2024 by vegasbob

Damn, Kelly was one of the 3.

[Tedballgame]

This could be the worst loss of the season, and thats saying something.

[vegasbob]

Zack Kelly is my other candidate for SoS reliever of the year. Always good for the big fly. Breslow really has handed AC some trash

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

Messing up an easy DP cost the game. You can't make this BP get 4 outs, when they can barely get 3 outs.

Another L that could be backbreaking. This team has been such a tease back and forth. Just f*** off!!!!

Gonna need a miracle right now.

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

Damn, Kelly was one of the 3.

 

Well, we still have Jansen and Martin. The 2 oldest dudes on the team.

[Tedballgame]

They are going to need an entirely new BP next year.. Whitlock should be in it when he is ready. Jansen and Martin won't be back and everyone else sucks.,

[vegasbob]

Neither of whom is likely to be there next year . But you will see the Winks, Boosers, Bernies, Kelly's and others who cannot get 3 outs in an inning

[Old Red]

Martin could only throw 4 pitches????

[notin]

What’s this? The third time since the All Star break they’ve had a lead of 2 or more runs with three outs to go and lost? It’s at least the third…

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

Whitlock is like fine China; he breaks easily.

The DP would have made 3 outs.

Actually, Wink did get 3 outs, but Rafaela got in the way.

[moonslav59]

You just can't lose games like this in a playoff run.

 

This sucks.

Maybe some teams will DFA relievers the SOX can sweep up. No team Hoovers up DFA's more than the SOX FO.

We could sign Rich Hill.

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

Kenley and Martin will be available tomorrow night, which means the SOX starter will have to go 7.

[Randy Red Sox]

Martin could only throw 4 pitches????

 

no kidding. just watched Hader get 6 outs for the Astros

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

We could sign Rich Hill.

 

 

Might as well; he can't be worse than most of the BP.

[Randy Red Sox]

Kenley and Martin will be available tomorrow night, which means the SOX starter will have to go 7.

 

are you saying the 2 BP arms Breslow got us at the deadline are useless??

[Tedballgame]

Whitlock is like fine China; he breaks easily.

 

Not if they leave him in the pen and don't ruin him by trying to make him a starter.

[Randy Red Sox]

Might as well; he can't be worse than most of the BP.

 

I am expecting this to be finalized any day now. Word is though that Hill is holding out for meal money and Henry is balking.

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

Pretty much. I would score Sims with a 'D' and Garcia with an 'F' at this point.
