    Not sure how you could pitch worse than Nick Pivetta in the 4th . Given the gift of another lead, he truly sucks

    i do not mind Duran's message T-shirts. if you can play, you can play and come through when others don't. He made himself a player, no one did it for him. Having said that, he probably doesn't realize how many millions he may cost himself over the next 3-4 years as he gets into arbitration, extension offers and finally FA

    Cedanne is an interesting dilemma . His approach and plate discipline is not good at all, but his statisical results are above average to very good for a virtual rookie. With a little improvement , Rafaela would be star quality

    Nick's leadoff walk scores. The rocket ground rule double may never touch the earth again. Nice work Nick
  5. vegasbob
    According to some he is #1 in most everything

    Casa problaly got screwed by the Ump, if not himself, always looking to step away, but Devers missed 2 hittable balls for a LH'ed before gagging on a change up. Also his mustache is a joke, like his AB

    Yes, then trade him as part of a package for someone with ability. I assume you can QO and still trade the jerk.

    Moon, this is really getting hard to take that either the defense fails to make plays behind the pitchers , the bullpen thinks 2 strikes and 2 outs is a complete package, or guys like Pivetta blow a 3 run lead in the first inning. The real issue for me is that too many players/pitchers seem to have no innate ability to be a winner when handed a gift.

    F'ing Nick Pivetta is a real piece of work. Should be a good #3 pitcher but instead is a pure SoS.

    Amazing how the first innings go when Duran leads off with a hit, then Abreu and finally Casas with a massive blast for a 3-0 lead. Then the camera goes to Cora and you can see the worry already whether the BP will be able to hold this one. Or maybe it is how many shots will Nick P. give up ?

    Going to Boston later this week for the first time in a few years. Bought Sox-Diamondback tix for Friday night right behind the Sox bullpen in RF. I will gladly deliver, in person, any messages of encouragement any of you fellows wish to express. Have mercy if they blow any more leads .
  12. vegasbob
    Bring the Dom-inator back next ST since we need a LH bat to PH, or was it a RH bat ?? You never know with these personnel decisions

    Can't expect Kenley to be be perfect every night. Sims sucked walking the leadoff batter . Had Paul Simon over to the house for a cold one, after the Diaz HR, asked him to play a couple verses of " Slip Slidin' Away" He sounded great acapella
  14. vegasbob
    Said this the other day: Sims = SoS
  15. vegasbob
    Yes, another very good outing by Houck. Jansen is who he is. The starting pitching is trending back towards the early season, thankfully. Still need Criswell to feel good and capable again
  16. vegasbob
    But enough about defensive abilities. This game will go to the Sox bullpen, clearly the worst ever assembled or paid money, other than a few of the guys. These guys are so bad they give amateur baseball a bad name . This game is destined to go 22 innings because of the combined hopeless defense and Bullpen. Anyone biting ?
  17. vegasbob
    Nice work by the Chump at HP{. Missed 2 calls on Houck in a row, followed by a lead off hit. Where do these dildos come from ?
  18. vegasbob
    Called it just as a bonus for Max who has this figured out
  19. vegasbob
    Little league play by Jansen. Terrible decision and throw
  20. vegasbob
    11 AM is a relative time, depending on time zone. It is the Red Sox Nation covering 4 time zones. Most people think there are three. So set a standard, and if it is EDT/EST, then you are biased towards East Coast idiots. totally unfair
  21. vegasbob
    Get to Houston's BP and Yoshi can PH for Wong
  22. vegasbob
    I'm with him, Fuk'em. I'm having it tattooed right above my #9 on my left cheek. TSW would have said the same and probably did
  23. vegasbob
    Two players losing ground in my Pantheon of Red Sox heroes ( LOL) : Tyler O'Neill and Romy Gonzalez. Both failed in a rare 1st inning rally by the Sox led by my man Duran
  24. vegasbob
    How about the Houston infield thoroughly soaked to the point of mud to slow down the Sox speed. Really ought to be some standards on field prep
  25. vegasbob
    Interesting take that with 9 to go, Sox might still not be eliminated from the WC chase. If starting pitching can make a next 30 game rebound as seen from Bello and Houck , and KC ever loses a game with Mariners treading water , this could happen. But Criswell will need to rebound, Crawford needs to get into the 6th inning with some effectiveness and the BP , other than Martin/Jansen needs to find themselves. I think it will come down to one team or another hitting a 9-10 Win streak or 9-10 game losing streak. If you look back at almost every opportunity Boston has had over the past 3 months to jump ahead, they have muddled around 2-3 wins/2-3 losses. Never a run of over 5 wins. Draw your own conclusions.
