I keep wondering why on earth they insist on bringing Bummer in from the pen. Every time I see him on the mound, I automatically assume he'll give up runs, and probably lose the game. Just like today. I wish they had traded him in July. Worthless. I know he's a lefty, but so are Banks and Peralta.

I would think there's a tipping point where if too many games go to exclusive deals, mlb.tv sales start to suffer. I can see people who are buying mlb.tv to see 150+ of their team's games deciding to get rid of it if that number dips too much farther.
I agree. Since our cable company will charge me on the May bill for MLB Extra Innings, I want to know if we're going to get a price break for the Friday games we're going to miss. We pay MLB to watch Sox games, since we live out of state, and this 'special deal' nonsense simply sucks. If other 'deals' start to materialize, paying for MLB won't be worth it unless they drastically reduce the price.

I predict Sox go up early, Liam blows 2 save opportunities and the Sox lose on a walkoff.

Sad, but true, right? Am I the only one here that thinks Hendricks is hugely over-rated? I've watched him screw up over and over and over. Ridiculous.

best comments i have ever read on this site, thank you for telling the truth, but I am afraid the people making the needed baseball decisions are not the right people.
A remarkable commentary, well reasoned and well written. I think you'll find more fans than you imagine agree completely. I know I do, especially with the LaRussa points. I never thought it was a good idea, but so many people disagreed, I began to think I wasn't being reasonable. But, he's not the right person for the job. I hope the winter months bring us hope for a better '22 season. Thanks again for your thoughts. Much appreciated.

Yup that's probably the best Liam has looked in a save situation in a while and he's been lights out this month.
Couldn't agree more. Probably the best I've seen him pitch all year.

The way he's pitching I can almost guarantee there ain't a chance in hell he's pitching 160 innings next season.
Does anyone think he'll be on the playoff roster?

Boy, this defense looking great going in to post season play. Wtf. 🤦🏻♂️
It's beyond painful to watch right now. What an embarrassing performance.

Does anyone know why Rodon hasn't been scheduled in the next several days? He's not on the IL, but nowhere to be found in the rotation. Are they just giving him an unusually long rest?

Was about to say this. It looks like his knee is bothering him. He's trying to stretch it out after every pitch.
He looked like he almost limped off the mound. He's doing so well, they should probably take him out fairly soon, before he's back on the IL for another stint.

When is the last ti.e we had multiple good games in a row?
It's getting hard to remember!

Yeah, probably no Liam tomorrow or Thursday, now.
Won't miss him, believe me.

Nothing new, either. Mr 'elite closer' gives me heartburn.

It's a reflection of the leadership.
Is it the coaching, or does this team need a refresher course on base running? They've looked terrible all night.

No TA again. This has to be more than just resting.
My concern, too. I fully expected him to be in the lineup today. Does anyone know what's up?
-
In my earlier comment about Hendricks, I meant he didn't deserve a W. Someone needs to take a new look at those rules.
-
How in hell does Hendricks get the W when he practically threw away the game? Thank God for TA!!

Way too many. May have to switch him with Kimbrel. Not smart to challenge Judge with a fastball in the zone...add one more for Stanton. Unbelievable. Down 8-7. We took Eloy and Vaughn out. The taller Eloy may have caught the Stanton homer.
Exactly. I've watched this so-called "great" Closer blow far too many games. What just happened is unforgivable. Kimbrel needs to be the Closer. Hendricks is a disaster more often than not.

They have been discussed and there are almost universally loved.
Wow! That really surprises me, as I think they look cheap, the pants are too tight, and they don't look like the 'normal' baseball uniform. If that was the idea, they succeeded. But, these uniforms will never 'grow on me.' And I wonder if they ever will win when wearing them.

Those City Connect Jerseys are cursed.
Agree! I'm new here, so don't know if this has been discussed before, but those new uniforms are ugly, and I think they've lost every game where they've worn them.
