Getting very weary of the Ks with men in scoring positions. Jarren is no help watching 3rd strikes go by. -
A Realistic Look at the 2026 Red Sox: Part I
vegasbob replied to moonslav59's topic in Boston Red Sox Talk
Bello suffers from a reinforcing cycle of thinking he has problems in the first inning so he tries to be too careful which in turn leads to walks, HBP or grooving balls on 3-1 counts. The more it happens, the more it reinforces that negative thinking . Personally, I suspect he is an undereducated clown , and have never liked him as a serious pitcher. But he has shown he can do it on multiple occasions . You may also be seeing the effect of making a young, immature kid a multi-millionaire in a poor country like the DR. Papi and Pedro could talk to him all day and never gotten through to Brayan about needing to work hard , even in off season. You know Alex Cora discussed it with those guys. Why work too hard in the hot sun? -
Red Sox's Craig Breslow Era Is Set to End With A Whimper
vegasbob replied to Alex Mayes's topic in Boston Red Sox Talk
Someday Anthony may well live up to his potential and he is still very young. If the RS hitting tactics are injuring him maybe he needs to swing "his way" . He has missed notable development time in '25 and now much of '26. He hit weakly in , like many others, in April this year. There is real concern that 2027 will be a short season , if at all., further jeopardizing Anthony's development as a pro hitter. To think he should be or will be the keystone of the lineup is putting too many eggs in one basket . Let's talk about him when he is back to playing which will be no time soon . -
This would be the time, maybe post ASB to bring Bello in and pair with a starter based on the schedule shown above.. The guy can pitch at the MLB level , is not injured physically . Brayan is under a contract for a few tens of millions more. USE him. Breslow and the team need to see if he is part of the longer term plan or a dumpster project. Also show he can pitch in the majors before August 3rd. It's called shopping him, but as a seller, not buyer.

A lot can happen in a 20 game span as we have just seen. But we are still a series sweep plus more under .500
-
Gray, Brez's acquisition, now 11-1, on a sub .500 team It is the right move for the organization but will take some cojones to pull off because it will be seen as quitting on the season.
-
Had Weissert walked the bases loaded before the home run, Sox would still be winning. That's called a Weissert cushion
-
That guy in CF has a future in this game.
-
Wong flies out on ball 4 with LOBsters or MOBsters. Time to close out 7 in a row inconceivable 2 months ago
-
Good way to save some bucks
-
Steve is probably asking for Mickey G's agent phone #
-
Cohen has to be seriously ill about his team. Money solved nothing. He needed a better backup catcher to turn this around
-
He does not look quick with the bat nor recognizing pitches
-
Soto would not like playing for the RS Nation.
-
Big bomb from Wilyer who has solved lefties this year
-
So he does with the fear of the OF arms sticking the Mets on 3rd
-
HP Umpire is poor tonight.
-
Whitlock gives up more infield hits than the average pitcher, followed by rockets. Get out of this situation, Garrett
-
Cheng was in the whirlpool when Siegler hit the pole ? Can't make the club if your in the tub ! Note for Anthony, Mayer, Crochet and the rest of the IL's
-
Why didn't they just take the Acela to NYC along with all the politicos ?
-
Gray has Ewing down 0-2 on wicked curve balls. Eventually throws him a straight FB for a 2 out hit. Luckily Soto can't hit
-
Gonzo taking middle middle for his 3rd K. As others have said. bench players are what they are for a reason
-
I think Wong has a tired arm from all that running His throw to 2B wasn't competitive
-
Wong makes umps look bad when. running. Win one lose one. no runs
-
To K Duran , get him swinging at the first breaking ball, throw a called strike, then a straight FB high and Jarren is grabbing pine
