Sox Radio Announcer closed with “get the Rays on here and flush the toilet”. I think he gives that remark a different meaning than I do. But yes, the toilet is about to be flushed on this season.
And no one projected the 2013 team to be in first place either. Both were in first place at the trading deadline. Ben reinforced the 2013 team and Bloom did nothing to help this team. I can’t believe that I miss Ben. I really thought Bloom knew pitching better than Ben, but he doesn’t.
Sure 5 innings 4 runs. Let’s give the 5+ ERA pitchers an award. The bullpen is on high alerts in the first inning of his pathetic starts. He’s a bullpen killer.
Did anyone not see that coming? Barnes is over taxed and the big boys can usually get him anyway. Our starters give us pathetic innings. Scoring 8 should be more than enough and your starter should be able to give you 6. Our pitching is a joke. Death spiral continues. No funeral tomorrow. It’s an off day. I will be wearing black when we play Tampa.
Such a mistake trading for a guy on the DL with a hamstring pull. The recovery can be weeks from what is projected. Groins are even more problematic. Maybe we will see him hit some Home Runs in meaningless September games.
if we has Rizzo, maybe we win both games. Instead, the best we can do is a split tomorrow after shutting down a Toronto production for the double header. Tomorrow they will probably bludgeon our pitchers.
