surprise me and not make the 3rd out.

Durbin has been a complete disaster while Kyle Harrison is becoming a star for Milwaukee. Nice trade by Breslow and staff.

[vegasbob]

Durbin was sold as a Fenway wall banger.  However, he is constantly jammed inside resulting in weak popups

I would say  sit him and play Eaton for now. s 

Every time with 2 on, the next batter K's to get the out count up, no advancing runners, no situational hitting..

Maybe Fatse and his guy were, in fact, awful coaches.

I have never seen the Red Sox field a more boring, lifeless, talentless team than what they are trotting out there now. And thats after watching them since 1965!

This team sucks! 

I know even the 63 team had Stuart and his 42 and 118,

I was referring to his total innings per season.

He's averaged 5.66 IP/9 since becoming a fulltime SP.  The league average last year was 5.19.  And over the four years, Suarez is #33 in BB in total innings.

Yup, a heck of a heist from SF.

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

Come to see the Green Monster. Stay and try to be quiet.

Do you know what Temecula looked like in 1982? I was a produce driver on my way to Palm Springs, from San Diego, used to love that drive. The Eagles had it right with Last Resort.

Can someone now cure Abreu's hole in the bat. . Thought  he could hit a little, not very little

.840 OPS.

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

OB can't figure out why the fans in the ballpark are so quiet. I didn't even have to call a friend to figure that out.

[alsoason]

13-20 that is what all your numbers add up to, and those two numbers are all that matter.

And Lou believes there's a Green Monster in RF.

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

I wonder if IKF was named after Ralph Kiner?

[vegasbob]

Mayer would be a better hitter if he stopped pulling off to the right side. No wonder he misses a number of swings. 

I don't care what Abreu's OPS HAS BEEN.   Hit something now when it counts.

Easily our best pitcher and you're still complaining?

Never said he wasn't. Do you suffer from reading comprehension?

You tell him Vegas.

[vegasbob]

This game does tell you a lot.  Sox in a total hitting struggle, at home, against a team with a 1/2 game worse record than them.  

Wait until Skubal gets them tomorrow

Closing in a total wipeout of a season with this crew. 

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

I doubt Chapman will be overworked this season.

No, named after Isiah Thomas of the Pistons.

Does everyone realize that the Celtics missed their last 8 , 2 or 3 point shots yeaterday ?

Having not watched an NBA game since the early 90's, I was not aware of that.

Is it remotely possible he was named after both?

Might have been the treat Falafel

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

Durbin's destroying that wall.

Just looked up the recipe. Seems to be a big hit in Egypt.

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

Instead of a walk off that appeared to be a wank off.

The RS record has -0- to do with how Abreu is performing.

[Tedballgame]

Nice play by Kelly. He sucks!!!!!!

I said you were complaining about him.  I meant to say you were whining about him.

Zack Kelly - another guy I dread seeing come into games 

[Tedballgame]

Well, maybe the Sox will get out of this yet.

He and Weissert are both garbage.
