Angels (Johnson) vs Red Sox (Bennett): 09/09/26, 6:45 PM

[illinoisredsox]

Johnson has a 1.7 ERA since August 1; this is going to be tough to overcome.

Would have preferred the Angels take another couple days to start playing well.

[Bagwell Anderson]

Bennett is pitching tired already.  

[FredLynn]

Let’s hope the FLOPS get eliminated from the playoffs soon

Does everyone fully realize how bad the Angels and tonight's pitcher actually are ? And this game is Home  ot a West Coast trip.

A lot is when you play a team.  Even bad teams have good series/weeks.  They just don’t happen too often.  Good teams have bad series/weeks.

As for tonight’s Angels pitcher; he’s had a 1.7 ERA since the start of August (when the Angels replaced their pitching coach and then entire Angels staff has improved  the last month as well.

Can the Sox trade Anthony for Neto? It would solve are leadoff problem.

Neto is only 25 and he isn't as fragile as Roman.

[Bagwell Anderson]

Anthony Ks again.  2for his last 27 13 k

[vegasbob]

I guess Anthony is missing Marcello as well as pitches

[JimEd]

waht a f***ing shitshow. good thing the Pats game starts soon.

[FredLynn]

These bums aren’t just bad-they’re BORING. 
Lets all hope they don’t make the playoffs so they don’t have to suffer the indignity of being eliminated by the Yankmees again

I can't help but wonder if the package Breslow gave the O's for Rutschman could have gotten the Sox Neto?

[FredLynn]

Screw this team 

BOOOOOOOOOO

BOOOOOOOOOO

BOOOOOPOOOO

Outta here

Yes , but no one needs another SS when you can get a broke catcher

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

We'd have been better off if Tony Bennett was pitching tonight

There is still time for some redemption if not a w.

Wow, that was ripped!   Followed by a nice third out though.

I meant the GAME is turned off. But I’m still here to dis the FLOPS

[FredLynn]

These bums are mailing it in. They deserve to be eliminating before October 

[Bagwell Anderson]

Going to lose a home series to a team destined to lose 100 games.  Not a good look

Oops. It appears Tony B died 3 years ago. Oh well, I'll still stick with my post.

Roman needs to sit while he figures things out. Really bad slump.

[Bagwell Anderson]

Sliders away all day to Story who chases and gets behind only to swing at a ball 3 inches above the zone

Maybe Anthony peaked in the WBC.

[FredLynn]

Patriots in 30 minutes. They have a tough opening game against the Seahawks in Seattle. The Flops are the single franchise in Boston that sucks. The B’s, C’s, and Patriots are all managed well. Not so with the FLOPS 

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

Looks like White, one of the Sox better players of late, may go on the IL, or is he already there.

[Bagwell Anderson]

This offensive effort is abysmal once again. Putrid

Go Seahawks. I don't follow the boring NFL for the same reason I don't follow the boring NBA. Because they're both boring.

Why did anyone think he would be hitting well after a 3+month time out?

This is what he was doing in April before he checked his swing and then checked out
