Can we please stop mentioning Dalbec? I never want to see that guy’s face on my TV ever again.

It’s unfair to pick on one play, but it’s a totally different trip if devers doesn’t boot that ball yesterday. Teams are going to slump, especially on a west coast trip, but the defense has been shit all year and is a big problem

I know this is frustrating in the moment in a classic shitty west coast trip, but - the 2-14 stretch against NL teams at home is what will doom this team, not this bit.

Lot of progress for the organization regardless of what happens the rest of the year, I'm fairly happy.

It’s putting in Jacques with a runner on second in a one-run game.

Bullpen’s cooked, sure, but if you’re gonna ride Pivetta to 104 pitches you should probably have someone more reliable coming in after him.
Such as who? Everyone but Jansen pitched yesterday.

I’m sure they’re a fun group of guys with a lot of heart and I’m sorry it didn’t work out
They don't make plays on defense, and when they go up against a team that does, the difference is stark.

Amen. Can SoSH make some connection with NESN and tell someone over there to tell O'Brien it is 100% perfectly fine to not fill up every second of air with his inane thoughts?!?
If there's a real connection to be made it should be to promote Mike Monaco.
