hopefully, for the sake of the pen, Tolle has a career first complete game in him.

going 7 would be a major accomplishment for him, the A's are without their two best hitters so it should be easier than the dodgers and he went 6 with them

I predict Seigler will pitch the final two innings: throwing lefty in the 8th, righty in the 9th.

[vegasbob]

165 pitches thrown in relief last night.

Thanks Suarez. 

Only Guerrero and Whitlock had low pitch counts but it would be their 3rd consecutive game.    Tolle needs to just throw strikes, let the A's swing away.

I expect a tired quiet effort tonight .

I wonder if the send somebody down? Send Weissert down and call up Gamboa for bulk innings. Send Gamboa down and callup Wehunt to start o Sunday for the bullpen game? 

[moonslav59]

soxprospects.com's podcast said there might not be innings limits on Tolle and Bennett, but I doubt we see a complete game unless it's on 90 pitches.

[Deja Doh]

Let's keep the streak going.

Surprised they didn’t option Weissert and call up Rivera or Samaniego just to have a fresh arm…

It is baffling -- even after generous Red Sox fans all over New England who are taxi drivers, Uber drivers, bus drivers, train conductors, and tandem bicyclists offered to give Weissert a free ride to Woo.

Any corresponding roster move coming today since we used EVERY member of our Bullpen yesterday?

[Nick]

Why not send some one down and call up a starter? Send down Bello if he's out of bullets.

Much easier than putting Tolle on a strict 250 pitch limit…

[king koji]

Is today Sandoval's throw day? Maybe use him in longish relief tonight, maybe bring up a kid to start Sunday?
