7/1 Blame Chicago ...

[JohnnyTheBone]

What is Cora doing? Lol

Dude is in a major funk.

 

[patinorange]

Take the effective reliever out after 10 pitches. Let the ineffective reliever throw 30+ pitches.

Do managers slump?

Danish sucked also.

 

[Manramsclan]

Vazquez set up a foot outside and Robles still threw it over the plate.

I saw that! Imagine if the ump called it a strike

 

[YTF]

Hey kids, just in from work. How's the game shaping up?

 

[scotian1]

If I didn't know better I would think Cora is trying to lose this game.

 

[BigEazy]

So add more pressure on a shaky bullpen arm by allowing the bases to be loaded instead of making the move with 2nd and 3rd. Robles wasn't suddenly going to find it.

 

[Jed Zeppelin]

I mean walking a .233 OBP hitter should result in being placed inside and immediately fired from a cannon.

 

[YTF]

I see there's a pitchin g change. Sure hope they don't put in a guy who's prone to walking batters

 

[Petagine in a Bottle]

Hey kids, just in from work. How's the game shaping up?

Not great, Bob!

 

[JohnnyTheBone]

Piss off, Diekman.

 

[YTF]

Ah, no walk. That's good.

 

[waffles.]

Lol what a shit show.

 

[Obscure Name]

At least it’s still early.

 

[moonshotmanny]

I wish I still didn't know this game was on...

 

[BigEazy]

Hahaha, seems about right

 

[twibnotes]

Bloom deserves a mountain of criticism for this fucking pen

 

[Al Zarilla]

I'm out.

 

[SemperFidelisSox]

There were two outs and nobody on.

 

[patinorange]

Wild pitch as good as a walk. Hit bats man next. And Vaz blows

 

[papelbonafide58]

I think Hansel is ready for the glue factory

 

[scotian1]

He forgot for a second the cover the plate.

 

[BoSoxFink]

Diekman didn’t even cover home, wtf is he doing?

 

[mauidano]

 

[fenwaypaul]

The good news is that now a walk to this guy won’t score a run (unless it’s another wild pitch).

 

[Max Power]

Well, first base is open again.

 

[JohnnyTheBone]

Bloom deserves a mountain of criticism for this fucking pen

The pen indeed sucks, but Cora is managing it as if he's on 4 hits of acid.

 

[Moviegoer]

Cora should not be making bullpen decisions in any way other than being the guy who goes out there to grab the ball when someone else tells him to. He has absolutely no idea what he is doing.

 

[Ganthem]

Cora has been in a funk since the season started

 

[Petagine in a Bottle]

The “bloom can really build a bullpen” narrative is dying a slow death this inning

 

[waffles.]

9 walks

 

[LesterFan]

9 walks and a HBP.

 

[Harry Hooper]

The good news is that now a walk to this guy won’t score a run (unless it’s another wild pitch).

The good news is over now.

 

[Petagine in a Bottle]

How is this in Cora? He’s got too many lefties and a bunch of mostly mediocre righties.

 

[CoffeeNerdness]

Does Robles bring Cora a delicious petitfor every morning or what? Dude has six blown saves in eight opportunities.

 

[patinorange]

I'm sure he's going to hit this guy.

 

[Norm Siebern]

Fucking Robles.

How could Bloom so consistently build ridiculously good bullpens in Tampa seemingly out of no-names, hopes and dreams, and his bullpens in Boston are simply hopeless?

 

[YTF]

Robles and Deikman have been given more than ample opportunity to show that they can help this team they both need to move on ASAP.

 

[Back Bay]

I think it's coded into most lefty relievers to hand out a few walks each time.

 

[Manramsclan]

Well, first base is open again.

el o el

 

[glennhoffmania]

Yeah with this pen making the playoffs doesn't really matter. What a joke.

 

[Petagine in a Bottle]

Diekman’s bb rate is now 7.3/9

 

[Jed Zeppelin]

Feels like Cora’s pen usage is him making the case to get Whitlock back out there rather than starting. Either way I think it is basically essential.

 

[MJM2344]

Toilet store bullpen.

 

[Manramsclan]

If you can't get Webster fucking Rivas out you need to go the fuck away

 

[JohnnyTheBone]

Piss right the fuck right off, Diekman.

 

[YTF]

Fucking Robles.

How could Bloom so consistently build ridiculously good bullpens in Tampa seemingly out of no-names, hopes and dreams, and his bullpens in Boston are simply hopeless?

The bullpens are maddening, but I'll give Bloom an incomplete grade when it comes to the BP and hole that he completes the project soon.

 

[Lose Remerswaal]

No, OB, the wild pitch didn’t matter since he walked the guy anyway

 

[Manramsclan]

Diekman’s bb rate is now 7.3/9

Yeah, there is no improving this. Eat this contract. Robles too. Fuck them. They are absolutely costing this team games

 

[MFYankees]

This is like f'in Little LLeague

 

[Jed Zeppelin]

8 free base runners in the last two innings.
