Sox are going to pay him one way or another.  If they release him, someone probably takes a shot on him for the prorated portion of the MLB minimum.

He's on a 2 year contract?  Are you serious?  Major blunder by Breslow.

One year contract.

Bad base running by Romy and terrible AB by Wilyet cost the Sox two runs

As I said to Splendid, from Romy’s view on the field, it had to have looked like the LF had caught the ball; it certainly went into it briefly, so I can see why he went back.  Even if he he had seen it pop out, he would have gotten only to 3rd (Anthony probably is on 2nd in that case), which is exactly where they ended up after the bad throw by the catcher.

The Flops just blew their last chance to tie the game. 
The Jays will now add on, though the result was decided in the first half inning.

Interesting.  You call yourself FredLynn, but you prefer rooting against the Sox,

I ALWAYS want what’s best for the Flops. Usually that means winning, but sometimes-like this year NOW-it means losing as many games as possible to improve our draft position.

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

Sox need a wild pitch.

Duran isn’t scoring 

[moonslav59]

It's time to try anyone else in Kelly's 26 man roster slot.

or, to insure we sell not buy.

[Maxbialystock]

Hit it hard, right to Jays third baseman.  Up to Toro not to waste Duran's triple.

Only place he could have hit it (okay, a chopper to the mound  doesn’t work either) and not scored the run.

[FredLynn]

Knew Duran wouldn’t score

A little Burdi must be almost ready to be activated.

We also have our own 3 H club: Houck, Harrison & Hicks.

That's why I was asking for a wild pitch.

Kelly is another guy I wouldn’t be sad at all to see go 

Well, you might get your wish; that had oblique written all over it.

[FredLynn]

Time for the Jays to add on….

That should have been Kluber, not Kluger.

Hey. at least he hit it hard; how many times this season have we watched a slow trudge back to the dugout or a pop up in that situation.

Although I'm pretty sure there's a pitcher named Kluger who also sucks.

Timely hitting has usually been untimely for this team.

how about Priester? oh yeah, in all their wisdom, the FO morons traded him for an outfielder in A ball. nice.

[moonslav59]

You guys think Cora is dumb. Why bring in a lefty to pitch to Romy?

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

If the Sox don't make the PO's, then they should at least finish 78-84. It would make a great conversation piece.

Newcomb's doing better than Priester. What about him, too?
