Gordon vs Buehler 

Gordon's first start against Sox.

Go Sox!

[FredLynn]

Boohler is pitching for his baseball life. Not much time left for him if he sucks.

[Maxbialystock]

Thanks for the start. 

Buehler pitched better than Gordon in July, which was far and away Buehler's best month of four.  

Cora has 7 righty bats against lefty Gordon.  The two lefty bats are Anthony and Duran in RF and LF with Rafaela back in CF.  

I would like to say the Sox have a chance to win this game, but I've been reading the comments.  Cora  should forfeit because Breslow failed to fill a whole bunch of desperate needs.   Plus the Sox are in blue and yellow today.

Agree.  But he did have a pretty decent July.

His ERA is almost 6 (5.72). We have better options I think. It won’t be Houck. He’s getting TJS.

[FredLynn]

WALKER Boohler lives up to his name

[FredLynn]

Screw Boohler.

2-0

[Nick]

He just sucks......you can't walk guys. One run homer will never hurt.

JH and Ivy League sissy Bres are just happy threading water.

[Maxbialystock]

Fast ball right down the middle--2 run dinger for the Astros.

 

[Jasonbay44]

I f***ing hate Walker Buehler 

[FredLynn]

This should hopefully be the last time we have to tolerate Boohler starting a game for the Flops

Right now, you got me, pardner.  The Astros are killing him.  

[FredLynn]

DFA the SOB 

[Jasonbay44]

How many more opportunities does he get? He’s been one of worst players in baseball 

[FredLynn]

I’d have him on a very short leash. He’s washed up. Finit!

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

If Kluber and Paxton had a baby.

[Maxbialystock]

Buehler escapes the first inning giving up just 2 runs thanks to a third out line drive to Rafaela.  

[FredLynn]

That’s a HR

[Jasonbay44]

Romy sure does love lefties 

[Maxbialystock]

Love the kids in the stands signaling dinger.  2-1.  

[FredLynn]

Bregman Ks on a ball that almost hits his foot

[Maxbialystock]

My goodness the Sox are failing to hit fat pitches down the middle.  91 mph fast balls.  

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

Police Chief Gordon and Ferris Buehler seem evenly matched.

[Maxbialystock]

Sox hitting stunk in the 1st inning.  

And Buehler is scaring us on the mound.

I know.  Go figure.  

[Jasonbay44]

Buehler is so bad. Falls behind every hitter, lots of hard contact, fools no one. It’s terrible to watch 

[FredLynn]

I’d get someone up in the pen. Boohler is about to get hammered 

[Maxbialystock]

Buehler is in a groove.  He either throws an obvious ball or one right down the middle.     The Astros love him.

Hey Ferris, quit hitting the bat,man.

Buehler gets a lucky double play on a hanging slider
