This game does mimic the problems that got them 14 under.500 HR but solo. Strong pitching No run support. High LoBs, low RISP production Cannot hit productive outs, high K rate. -
It is not a case of unfairly being down on a player. Jarren has become incompetent with a bat
-
Damn Duran. Doesn't even foul off the ball Chases like dog after a chicken. The world knew what the pitch would be. but dickhead didn't
-
I think Rutschman got rushed back with minimal BP. He is truly overmatched right now 5 consecutive Ks, no clue. Try Wong for a game before he gets too cold.
-
Yoshida settles the roster crowding with a hammie ? Insures Duran's position in the lineup
-
Durbin caught leaning and Duran's predictable K ends any thoughts of a rally
-
The 2nd is different as Wilyer loses a ball to deep right
-
Why do they Sox bother coming to the plate in the 1st inning ? Why do they swing at and K on eye high FBs ? Plate discipline and pitch/count situations have always been an issue. But seems to have adapted quickly to the Red Sox way
-
Chapman has not pitched all week. Probably needed a break physically but tells you a lot about the team's results

A Realistic View at the 2026 Red Sox Part II
vegasbob replied to moonslav59's topic in Boston Red Sox Talk
How is this take ? Crochet will never be back as a power pitcher but will need to learn to pitch by location and changing speeds. Further, he will need rotator cuff surgery before his contract ends. Lastly, trade Whitlock this winter. His elbow is shot -
So we got a young switch hitting catcher. voted as an All Star in 2026. Problem solved, right ? Who knows ? AR , like many coming off the IL mid or late season is not in physical nor mental shape to just step in and perform It will be mid September before you can begin to assess ARs abilities. This will be the issue when Roman and Story return. They will need multiple weeks to catch up to speed. Do not think of them as filling key roles with great success
-
Rutschman is fat who K 's '
-
Love these. bullcrap 9th inning just short stat building rallies
-
Duran is truly clueless at any change of speed pitch. The team is as flawed as it was earlier in the season Losses need to stop but the pitching hitting and defense must improve to get a win
-
Durbin getting tested on tough throws to 1B
-
Yes, hitting is not effective, short stint starters burn BPs, defense is not as sharp especially with 2 outs Durbin would have been better holding that ball, although the play. could have been made
-
Moran is another 2 out pitching Moron Please, don't quote me his stats This is the only game he is pitching right now
-
Moran up to 18 pitches to get 1 out with runners on 2nd/3rd in what should have been a shutdown inning
-
Contreras is a good 1Bman EXCEPT when chasing pop-ups over his head. That was Abreu's chance running in hard . Moran wastes 7 pitches before HBP in the head, with no outs
-
The radius of Bennett's ulna is humerus.
-
Bennett is out of gas and Sox are out of luck
-
Sox two out hits end innings. Contreras wasn't a great candidate to get waived in. sore hammie, but worth a shot. Took two good throws and the Pie'rats got them
-
2 out pitching mistakes continue to haunt
-
4th straight loss to a sub .500 team. 2nd straight series loss. Who knew ?
-
Another costly 2 out blunder by Martinez , HBP moving a runner to 2nd with 2 outs followed by a double. No guts pitching and poor hitting.
