Giolito should be his own long man tonight; no sense wasting whatever the pen has with Bello going tomorrow.

True. Bello has a reputation as a BP killer.

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

Tough break. Campbell did give it a ride.

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

Not that the score is 5-2 should Cora try to win this game?

I guess not.

Keep him in there until he needs to go on the IL.

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

Getting the Fox feed and the idiots in the booth don't know the Sox have no more challenges

Please fire the overrated Cora.

Got the hockey game on. 
No sense watching the Flops lose. Again.

3 managers fired so far this season. C'mon FO, make it an even 4.

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

Perfect example of a good 1st baseman with good range being charged with an error.

[Oscars]

Campbell should not be hitting clean up.

He is hitting .167 in his last 15 games 

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

But gee Corky this team looked so good on paper back in mid March.

You could ask Devers to bat clean up. Probably not a good idea to ask.

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

Duran has been our best player tonight. Not much competition.

[FredLynn]

Stars and Jets no score after 1.

Got that. But anything is better than watching these bums Flops right now 

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

Burdi's been a refreshing change in the BP.

I mean games like last night where they played like buffoons running into outs and games like today where the game is over after 2 innings because it’s already 6-0 just aren’t worth watching for me. 
And Im afraid there are going to be a lot of them this summer.

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

Taking Bummer out wasn't fair. Cora wouldn't have done that.

The MLB pitcher's caught up to Kristian's act fairly quick.   He is what he is, definitely no way a clean up hitter, but Cora will not change .

Seeing a lot of warning track power from a several of our alleged hitters tonight .  Just  not quite enough of anything.   . Where did the three run HR's go ?

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

The Sox two major acquisitions have been stellar so far. Chapman, also, has been very good.

Gone to grave yards everyone.
