I have no idea how Porcello has only allowed 2 runs

Christian Vazquez and Chris Davis! The big time hitters came to play!

Cashner threw two pitches in literally exact same spot. One was ball, one was strike. Nice

Also this umpire is really bad. He’s calling pitches right down middle balls for both sides

Sox should score off Cashner. He sucks

Well I also had like a ridiculous amount of alcohol, so it was a combo of the amount, and mixing different ones lol.

Porcello needed that

I can’t stress the mixing alcohol one enough. Worst night of my life was day before thanksgiving 2017 lol

Jesus he looks awful

Nice play Porcello

I didn't and still don't understand the point of switching Mookie and Beni in batting order.

I'm sure Mookie intentionally wanted to start off the season like this. It was a goal of his.

Chris Davis was once one of the most feared hitters in baseball. Things change. Porcello is AWFUL right now.

What the f*** was that?

You expect 0 losses rest of the season?

Porcello is awful right now

First time since Sunday I can sit down and enjoy a full game. Let’s win!

What are you even talking about? Buster Posey in his prime was a great defensive catcher, what metrics or stats are you using to prove otherwise? Also he is definitely still a catcher. he's played 11 games this season, 9 at C, 2 at 1B and has played a majority of his games every year in the MLB at catcher, he plays 1B sometimes now due to his age and the wear and tear. in 2013, David Ross played a majority of the games in the world series, in large part due to how bad Salty's defense was. Salvador Perez is one of best catchers in baseball, and is absolutely stud defensively. Miguel Montero is 36 and is retired. Maybe he regressed, IDK, due to being old? McCann in his prime was stud offensively, and his defense was solid enough, if the knock you want to use on him is that he struggled defensively in one of the last seasons of his career? Sure, go for it. Not sure what this has to do with anything regardless. None of our catchers are as good as McCann. Vazquez isn't a better hit than Leon, they are both equally s*****. But Leon offers better defense... I don't get the difficulty of understanding this.

Incredibly small sample size, and besides Leon's offense isn't why he'd be brought up.

The Rays pitching is nasty, theyre definitely a playoff caliber team. Either way though, nice to beat some s***** teams finally. Shout out to Chris Davis for continuing his streak!

I think you are misunderstanding what me and many others are arguing in this Leon debate. I am not saying Leon is the reason the pitchers were good, or that Vaz is the reason they are bad. My argument is, neither Leon OR Vazquez are good hitters, they are both very bad hitters. However, Leon is way better defensively (and yes it is a pretty large difference, the metrics support this) and the pitchers seem to be more comfortable with him for whatever reason. So why have Vazquez over Leon? If they both suck in one area, and Leon is superior in the other, why keep Vazquez over Leon? There is nothing Vaz does better, that is the point being made. I'm not arguing that the pitchers are sucking because Leon, if they are MLB pichers being paid millions and can only pitch to Sandy Leon, that is a completely different issue I don't even know how to toggle.

Khris Davis of the A's has hit more homers in 2 games at Camden Yards, than Chris Davis of the Orioles has hits since August last year at Camden Yards. What an absurd stat.

That was a high chopper, I don't think that was DP Ball.

There is no on suggesting the pitching isn't to blame, literally no one. Sure some people might be arguing the catchers and even Cora and the pitching coach deserve the blame. But no one in their right mind is giving the pitchers a free pass, they deserve a majority of the blame.

Holy f***, the Red Sox win a game!
