9/28 The Last Truly Meaningless Game Of The Year

[Papo The Snow Tiger]

Tomorrows game means something, ERod goes for his 20th win. I fully expect Cora to go with the A lineup until ERod's fate is decided, one way or another. If Chris Woodward can leave Mike Minor in for 120+ pitches and Minor can request leaving a fall ball to drop on purpose so he could get his 200 K's, Mookie, JD Mart and the rest of the gang can play nine innings in the field or four at bats.

Today on the other hand...…………..

My fantasy for today would be for one of the cup of coffee, Pawtucket call ups, like Lakins, Shawaryn or Trevor Kelley to come into the game and somehow get a major league win. That guy would have a story to tell, no matter what happens for the rest of their career.

 

[E5 Yaz]

Bradley Jr. CF,
Devers 3B,
Bogaerts SS,
Martinez DH,
Travis LF,
Holt 1B,
G. Hernández RF,
Owings 2B,
León C,
Chacín RHP

 

[S. H. Frog]

It's almost over. Win one today, boys.

 

[InsideTheParker]

This lineup isn't as bad as I expected.

 

[S. H. Frog]

Jesus, Ed. A run every other pitch is not going to get it done.

 

[InsideTheParker]

Yoicks! No outs, two runs to the opponent not the best start.

 

[fenwaypaul]

Chacin looks... submissive.

 

[S. H. Frog]

Well, two runs is OK given the start of the inning.

 

[S. H. Frog]

OK X!

 

[Bob Montgomerys Helmet Hat]

He is just so, so , so good

 

[InsideTheParker]

Ok, things are looking up (to the green monstah).

 

[Bob Montgomerys Helmet Hat]

Might be JD's last homer on the Sox

 

[InsideTheParker]

Might be JD's last homer on the Sox

From your lips. . . if it means they keep Betts.

 

[Bob Montgomerys Helmet Hat]

From your lips. . . if it means they keep Betts.

Not from my lips. I would hate to lose JD

 

[S. H. Frog]

TV production can best be described as disinterested in this game.

 

[SemperFidelisSox]

Chacin is garbage. I hope he’s not in their 2020 plans.

 

[S. H. Frog]

O's guy jacks a go-ahead dinger over ererything in left, and the interview in the stands doesn't even pause.

 

[S. H. Frog]

Remy is on the case, though, w/r/t the Fan of the Day.

 

[Bob Montgomerys Helmet Hat]

Interesting that both Eck and Jerry said that Xander is their favorite player.

 

[strek1]

What a difference a year makes. Finishing up by struggling against the worst team anywhere.

 

[E5 Yaz]

What a difference a year makes. Finishing up by struggling against the worst team anywhere.

Anywhere outside of Detroit

 

[InsideTheParker]

Nice to see Foulke, fat and happy. Boy, he was great.

 

[caminante11]

The bottom of the Red Sox lineup is awfully Tiger like.

 

[InsideTheParker]

Get ready for a lot of walks unless Hernandez is somehow transformed over the off-season.

 

[InsideTheParker]

Remy takes his role as analyst literally.

 

[brandonchristensen]

Struggling against one of the worst teams in recent memory.

Neat.

 

[JohnnyTheBone]

The incomparable XANDER BOGAERT$!

 

[Sam Ray Not]

X is so freaking good.

Remember when there was a “debate” about X vs Didi? Lol. Suck it, MFY fans.

 

[JohnnyTheBone]

Crush Davis owns us. Sigh.

 

[InsideTheParker]

Crush Davis owns us. Sigh.

This current Red Sox pitching makes other teams look good.

 

[JohnnyTheBone]

Richie Martin owns us. Sigh.

 

[bigq]

Cashner desperately trying to bring up his ERA since joining the Sox to above 6.

 

[InsideTheParker]

It's gorgeous outside, guys. Till tomorrow at three.

 

[S. H. Frog]

Yeesh. Yuck.

 

[DeadlySplitter]

man JBJ made a garbage throw this inning to compound matters

 

[JohnnyTheBone]

Burgeoning superstar Trey Mancini owns us, among many others.

 

[scotian1]

Getting bloody embarrassing!

 

[DeadlySplitter]

it would really suck if one of the lottery tickets we gave up for Cashner turns into something.

 

[bigq]

Getting bloody embarrassing!

Crashner has not been a good pitcher in a Red Sox uniform. He was supposed to help an already struggling starting rotation. Unfortunately he brought them down further.

 

[scotian1]

Good-bye Owings

 

[scotian1]

Terrible at bat by Marco.

 

[boxosII]

time for a comeback

 

[54thMA]

Unless something changes, this team is about to lose a series to an Orioles team that has had back to back 100 loss seasons, is closer to the sun than they are to the Yankees in the standings and draws more flies than people to their games.

This puts a bow on a complete and utter shitshow of a season that has been a disaster from start to finish, what an embarrassment.

As far as joyless seasons, this ranks right up there with 2012.

But hey, thanks for 2018 fellas.

Oh and 2004, 2007 and 2013 too.

So as fans at least we've got that going for us, which is nice.

 

[boxosII]

bases jacked for Brock

 

[S. H. Frog]

Dammitall.

 

[scotian1]

Total failure by several to deliver with runners in scoring position.

 

[shawnrbu]

Looking forward to see what Gorkys can do next season in an expanded role.

 

[Harry Hooper]

Looked like the SS never caught the throw on Sandy's grounder (until he was off the bag) but no one complained.

 

[E5 Yaz]

Looking forward to see what Gorkys can do next season in an expanded role.

This is sad and funny at the same time

 

[scotian1]

Marco with the bush league reaction when the pitch was a strike as well when it crossed the plate before the catcher messed it up.
