Getting shutout in a day game at Fenway doesn't set them up well for a tougher series coming up. Still a chance to win this and put air back in the tires. It won't be Beni that does it however. One HR since the A-S game
-
Pearce hasn't done anything for a while now.
-
Sox will regret letting this one go if they don't wake up. Laz and Workman give them a prime chance but they are sleepwalking. Beeks shows them up at Fenway
-
Why can't the Sox draft and develop guys like him, instead of acquiring Pomeranz types ??
-
Workman throws 12 pitches to get through 2 innings ?? He didn't get the memo regarding the 20 pitch minimum.
-
Rays making the mistake of letting the Red Sox hang around but with Jalen Beeks on the mound, the guys are helpless
-
Messed up inning-- 2 walks, a single and no runs. Martinez should have walked as well.
-
JDM helping Beeks with his development
-
I would expect him back but it will likely be September as the dumbass FO in NY should have recognized when he got injured.
-
Regardless of today's outcome which will be a win, the 4 games with the Guardians will be a test against a "for sure" playoff team. The Sox prevailed very nicely against the Yankees in a 4 game sweep , so can they repeat it ? Not if they hit like these last 13 innings vs. the Rays
-
A good comment in any case. The opposite is also true--a big market team signing an FA from Podunk can often choke on his chicken dinner. See Crawford, Carl.
-
Beginning with the first inning 4 run gift yesterday through 3 today, the Sox hitters are asleep with little interest in denting the wall. WTFU.
-
Thanks to NESN's Jahmai for explaining exactly how bad the pitching coaching in Boston varies from the Rays, allowing Beeks to have a very quiet inning. No question that the pressure of a championship level team is different from playing for a small market loser for a young unconfident guy
-
Swihart gives away an AB with a futile wave of the bat against a guy he should know.
-
The pitcher's best friend --a DP
-
He threw a center cut FB in the zone that ended up in the BP as a souvenir.
-
Kimbrel has been throwing more FB's to set up the sharp curve, which seems to work better than the opposite 11 pitches. much better
-
Bogaerts through Bradley combine for an 0-14 . Even when Mitch hits to the left side of infield it always seems to be at the only guy over there.
-
And notice he throws hard strikes challenging the hitters to get a bat on it. The other BP'ers should take note. About a 9 pitch inning.
-
Brasier keeps adding zeroes to his growing pile of work. But is the head tilt voluntary or a bad neck ? At least the hat is on straight.
-
Working on #88, while no other team could reach 80 until mid-week. Pretty amazing, but go ahead and finish this one off first
-
Prior to the Kinsler-Holt run-outs in the first, if you had said Glasnow would be pitching in the 7th, allowing only 1 run over the ensuing 5 innings, I would have said you were a Yankee hopeful. Nice recovery by Glasnow against an unmotivated bunch tonight
-
Seems like when the Sox get up early like tonight, the hitters just say get me done and out of here. Tonight should be a win but it's not a playoff level opponent nor a playoff level effort. all around. So take the win the Rays are offering you have and move to tomorrow.
-
Let's be aggressive running the bases for a change
-
With 40+- games to go for both A's and Astros, reversion to the mean will kick back in somewhere over that period. The difference with the Yankees and Red Sox is that both teams continue at a very strong pace (.700+-) with the Yankees losses to the Sox, and the Rays series hurting them.
