8/5 vs Toronto

[donutogre]

Feels harder and harder to imagine this team sniffing the postseason.

Feels harder and harder to imagine this team sniffing the postseason.

They needed pitching help and didn’t really get any. The bullpen has been overused.

 

[LynnRice75]

They are going to get swept. The offense is dead and the pitching is regressing

Your assessment is totally off.
The pitching is dead and the offense is regressing.

Sadly, you could be right about the swept thing.

 

[Petagine in a Bottle]

They needed pitching help and didn’t really get any. The bullpen has been overused.

Someone will post the “x era since some arbitrary date” and Llovera any second now.

 

[twibnotes]

Is devers’ long-term home 1B?

 

[LesterFan]

Hits of 74, 61, 68 in that inning.

 

[dhappy42]

That could have been a lot worse.

 

[Petagine in a Bottle]

Is devers’ long-term home 1B?

Why not DH?

 

[twibnotes]

They needed pitching help and didn’t really get any. The bullpen has been overused.

and the D might be the worst in MLB

 

[Al Zarilla]

That could have been a lot worse.

What, put a one in front of the three?

good point

Fenway score keeper is awful

 

[moonshotmanny]

Not looking good.

 

[moonshotmanny]

It’s the Curse of Kike and Christian.

 

[ngruz25]

Imagine if the Sox spent $20+ million on Kevin Gausman instead of Trevor Story.

 

[Al Zarilla]

Yoshida should give lessons on hitting the high ball.

 

[JOBU]

I like it a lot more when the Sox are the team getting cheapies

 

[SemperFidelisSox]

Do something Devers.

 

[Obscure Name]

That's our Raffy.

 

[LesterFan]

There we fucking go

 

[Al Zarilla]

Do something Devers.

Done

 

[JOBU]

I like it a lot more when the Sox are the team getting cheapies

I like that more

 

[ngruz25]

Well that was an absolute bomb.

 

[MiracleOfO2704]

Gawd DAMN, that was ankle-high.

 

[Petagine in a Bottle]

This loser should have been benched today!

 

[Ale Xander]

He can rake though

 

[Petagine in a Bottle]

Needed that

 

[bloodysox]

RAFFFFFYYYY

 

[moonshotmanny]

OK, that's good!

 

[SemperFidelisSox]

Imagine if the Sox spent $20+ million on Kevin Gausman instead of Trevor Story.

Imagine if the Sox spent $130 million extending Berrios.

 

[BravesField]

Has NESN mentioned Verdugo?

Blue Jays announcers said Verdugo being pulled from the lineup is NOT related to injury.

 

[mauidano]

Blue Jays announcers said Verdugo being pulled from the lineup is NOT related to injury.

He’s in the dugout apparently. Nothing on Twitter/X explaining why he’s not playing.

 

[Coachster]

Why Duvall and not Refsnyder? Duvall is reverting to form, and that's not a good thing.

 

[InsideTheParker]

Now I see why Devers goes for those low pitches. He's capable of hitting them out. It's just disappointing that he always tries to do that and can't do it regularly.

 

[ngruz25]

I wonder if Verdugo pitched a fit about getting pinch hit for last night?

 

[LesterFan]

Kirk is crazy slow

 

[Al Zarilla]

Why Duvall and not Refsnyder? Duvall is reverting to form, and that's not a good thing.

Get their money's worth out of the higher paid guy?

 

[mauidano]

Kirk and his warp speed not enough to stay out of the double play!

 

[Bob Montgomerys Helmet Hat]

Nice turn at 2nd by the new guy

 

[SemperFidelisSox]

Ok, they got some momentum now. Good shutdown inning from Nick.

 

[Al Zarilla]

Pivetta with the big Yeah! Don't wake them up, big guy.

 

[Bob Montgomerys Helmet Hat]

Pivetta with the big Yeah! Don't wake them up, big guy.

They’ve got 6 homers in a game and a half. Pretty sure they’re awake.
Personally, I love the emotion.

 

[Bob Montgomerys Helmet Hat]

That damn guy catches everything.

 

[Al Zarilla]

Nice route Magellan

Yeah, major leaguers, and all that

 

[mauidano]

Varsho came up in the D-Dacks organization as a catcher. Played with friends of ours son.

 

[E5 Yaz]

"Werester"

 

[LesterFan]

Couldn't make a worse 0-2 pitch
