TylerD

Of course. Compliment him and gives that up. Why do I do this lol.

Sale looks damn good to me here He’s so fast too. Unlike Pivetta. Can take a number two before he throws his next pitch lmao.

Just got home from work 1-0 lead cool!!!! Anyone care to tel me how Sale is looking? Heard he got bailed out with a couple double plays.

I’ll eat ribs for the game.

Agreed...... Will we get that? Time will tell. Sale has been excellent, but would definitely like to see him start to go deeper in games. Fatigue seems to set in by the 5h and his command seems to go out the window.

What Moon said in the other thread. Sale needs to give us more than 5 today. He has been nothing short of fantastic, but against this team we need at least 6 and to keep it at a 2 run game..... The bullpen is over worked and starting to melt down big time. We also need the offense to show up. That goes without saying.

Lets see what happens tonight with our ace. If Sale can give us 6 innings of 2 runs or less, I will feel confident we can win.

One thing you would think..... Sale should give us a chance today and keep us competitive for at least half the game....... hopefully lol.

I am in the middle. Would love to get that second wild card spot and smash the Yankees...... but I wish I had a crystal ball.... If all that is going to happen is us being swept and destroyed against Tampa (likely) there really isn't much point in making playoffs. People always say, I would rather my team in the big game than not.... Well the Colts made it to the conf final in 2014 and lost something like 45-7 or whatever the hell it was. I much rather would have had them miss that game, beyond embarrassing. The Sox are 2-9 against Tampa since that first series and have been out scored terribly. We don't even look in the same league as them. I don't care what stats people show me, we just can't beat those guys or Houston.

Ya the numbers are outrageous in my province as well. 80 percent are people that don’t want the vaccine. Funny, they still want the free health care Canada provides when they get sick though. Regardless…. It will be on going forever because a big part of the population doesn’t want the vaccine which fair enough. I won’t argue it. I wish we were done with this s*** but we likely never will After all, the government wants to control us lol!!! I have a friend that thinks the government wants to control us. Yup, good old Tyler eating a large pizza in his grey gitch swearing at the Red Sox. The government aches to follow my life lmao!!

Offense trying to at least score runs.

Glad I’m not watching tonight. Jesus Christ.

Sawa out now too.

Well that is very fair. I won't argue that...... Regardless of the season you thought the Sox would have, it still hurts none the less to be tied for the best record in the majors through the first half of the season and then produce this. What a shame we just couldn't get better pitching. We are 3-0 with Sale, and when Nate is on we can't be stopped. It was almost a guarantee loss when Richards and Perez stepped up to pitch and that is what hurts this season so much. The bullpen is much better than people give them credit for, but they are tired.... When your starters can't go more than 5 innings and the bullpen has to play half the game that starts to wear on those guys. Regardless, at this point I still hope we make the wild card because anything can happen at that rate.... But I don't expect us to win a series against the Rays or Astros (hell I don't expect us to win a game against them come playoffs) BUT if we can make that second wild card and beat the Yankees, that makes the season end on a high note regardless what happens against the Astros or Rays in the playoffs.

Lmao, valid point hahahah.

Outside of the first series we are 2-8 against the Rays and they have outscored us 63 to 47...... Most of these games aren't even close. Here is some of the blow outs 8-2 7-3 8-4 8-1 6-1 Hell even the game where we should have crushed them when we put up 20, they still put up 8 on us lmao. Sorry if anyone takes this as a negative post, but if you truly think we can compete with this team come playoffs...... Give your a head a shake..... Outside of that first series to start the season, the Sox have shown ABSOLUTELY NOTHING to anyone to prove they belong with Tampa or Houston. That is not a negative post, that is a simple fact.

Moon, it depends what your idea of jumping ship is. I am all for us getting a wild card spot and beating the Yankees. Hell ya bring it on!!!! But if by jumping ship means, people saying “we won’t beat Tampa in the playoffs or Houston. Well then yes…. I guess 99 percent of fans have jumped ship If you truly believe this team has shown you that we can beat either Tampa or Houston, then that is awesome man. I want whatever drug you are taking lol. I believe we can make a wildcard spot no doubt, but believe it we can beat Tampa or Houston is just being a delusional homer.

We suck against this team And Houston.

No chance hey.

Any chance we can score runs.

Yup true. Bullpen is going to have their work once again.

This team owns us.

Stop blaming Vaz. Jesus. Throw in the dirt a million times and it happens. Throw normal you f***.

Man that was close. He’s safe Make this count.

Just win. Don’t care how. Just win.
