8/6 I’m mad as hell

[patinorange]

Game 110
Verdugo sat even though things were dire.
The dumbass baserunning gaffe by McGuire.
The post-game comments where Cora flashed ire.
Saturday’s game was a true dumpster fire.
(Hope those flames are not out funeral pyre.)
The whole team seems to be stuck in the mire
since we were neither a seller or buyer.
Everything seems to be going haywire.
We seem like Sox who’ve been lost in the dryer.
The post season spot to which we aspire
is further away than t’was the day prior.
If we really want it, it will require
the team to focus and aim a bit higher.
Here’s one more true fact (cause I’m not a liar.)
We should always wear that yellow attire.
For now, win a game. That’s my sole desire.

Masterpiece.

Duran is due to have an exciting day on the base paths.

My NESN feed has been frozen for a couple of hours now on something called The GM Shuffle with Michael Lombardi and Femi Abebefe. I've rebooted my cable boxes to no avail. Should I be pissed off or relieved?

My wife remedied the issue by suggesting that I stream on our Spectrum app. Duh... So I do as suggested and voila...three man booth of O'Brien, Youk and Wake.

Bernardino looks dominant.

Thoughts and prayers.

 

[JohnnyTheBone]

Sit the fuck down, Twit!

 

[JohnnyTheBone]

That Belt is made of pleather. Sit the FUCK DOWN!

 

[JohnnyTheBone]

Fuck off, Schneider, you mustachioed prick!

 

[mauidano]

Schneider is on his way to Cooperstown.

Springer just destroying Sox pitching this weekend. Just walk him.

 

[dhappy42]

What’s the reasoning behind using an opener for an inning, then a “bulk man” for four or five? Why not just use the “bulk man” as the starter?

 

[absintheofmalaise]

Bernardino looks dominant.

Ahem.

 

[Back Bay]

Springer just destroying Sox pitching this weekend.

You mean his whole career?

 

[JohnnyTheBone]

More like Matt Hapless.

 

[mauidano]

Tied coming to bat in the first!

 

[SemperFidelisSox]

Verdugo showed up to that fly ball on time.

 

[moondog80]

Having the guy who only needs to go one inning face the best part of the order, I think?

 

[JohnnyTheBone]

Twit looking like a dork out there in left.

 

[absintheofmalaise]

Duran is due to have an exciting day on the base paths.

But not in his first AB.

 

[JohnnyTheBone]

Thank the good lord above for Justin Turner, or that could have been a 4-pitch inning. Make it hurt, Raffy!

 

[patinorange]

Nice bounce. Dammit.

 

[JohnnyTheBone]

Bases drunk for the beleaguered Alex Verdugo.

 

[SemperFidelisSox]

Alright, Dugie. Redemption time.

 

[mauidano]

Wow! Crazy!

 

[mr_smith02]

Baseball offering Verdugo redemption

 

[simplicio]

Feels like Bassitt got away with one there

 

[mauidano]

Dugie got the buzz cut.

 

[mauidano]

Much ado bout nothing. Squandered.

 

[JohnnyTheBone]

The beleaguered Alex Verdugo is beleaguered.

 

[mr_smith02]

Dugie got the buzz cut.

Maybe he wants to be more aerodynamic as he barely runs out his weak grounders to second.

 

[mauidano]

Nike running the Rapinoe women’s American Hero cartoon commercial.

Ouch.

 

[JohnnyTheBone]

GOT HEEM!

 

[mauidano]

Man, we are over analyzing the final play last night. Turn the page, there’s a game going on today.

 

[Ale Xander]

I approve of the thread title

nothing to do with baseball though

 

[mauidano]

Murphy is the bulk guy today huh?

 

[mr_smith02]

Man, we are over analyzing the final play last night. Turn the page, there’s a game going on today.

Especially Youk and Wake just told O'Brien the players get over those types of games quickly because they have to.

 

[JohnnyTheBone]

Basehit!

 

[E5 Yaz]

Urias a heap of help so far!!!

 

[mauidano]

Reyes wearing his Kike Hernandez shoes in memoriam.

 

[Bob Montgomerys Helmet Hat]

Urias a heap of help so far!!!

I wish I knew one of their songs to quote. Looking it up is cheating.

 

[JohnnyTheBone]

SMASH ONE THE FUCK ON OUT OF HERE, JARREN!

 

[JohnnyTheBone]

I wish I knew one of their songs to quote. Looking it up is cheating.

In honor of Chaim's deft acquistion of him, I'd go with Stealin'.

 

[mauidano]

Much ado about nothing.

 

[DeadlySplitter]

Yikes…

 

[LynnRice75]

Yikes…

Was that a comment about the double play or the haircut?

 

[JohnnyTheBone]

In fact, I've used it before!

The haircut looks worse after a double play.

 

[DeadlySplitter]

Urias can save errors too!?

 

[JohnnyTheBone]

Solid-ass backup from Urias. Where'd he learn fundamentals like that?

 

[YTF]

Nice back up by Urais
