We have one of the most dominating bullpens in the league, and TLR Leaves our least dominating pitcher with close to 100 pitch count to pitch the 6 th with a one run lead. This loss is on TLR. You have to manage the games to win with your best weapons. TLR does not have the sense-of urgency to go for the HFA. 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

upsoxfan Posted August 11, 2021 Share Posted August 11, 2021 I am waiting for our so called fantastic pitching coach to explain when it became acceptable fora pitcher to finish his delivery with his back to the hitter. Giolitto was lucky he didn’t get hurt badly. It’s just a matter of time until Cease really gets drilled. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blackout Friday Posted August 11, 2021 Share Posted August 11, 2021 That’s a loss that could have been a win. I’m not too upset about it, though. Nothing struck me as anything to get overly upset about. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We need to accumulate wins for home field advantage and this was a very winnable bullpen game, but Tony left Keuchel in one inning too long. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
quickman Posted August 11, 2021 Share Posted August 11, 2021 Honestly I know I get emotional but can we all agree Larussa is not in the dugout sipping bourbon. We lost the lead with two outs in the sixth. That gives us three Innings with the best lineup we have had In three months to get at least a run this is directed at upsoxfan. Can everyone realize you don’t win every game? no harm tonight. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Some of those hard hit balls could’ve went for extra base hits or if lifted more could’ve gone out. Your not going to win every game, relax!

No, I am only referring to winnable games when we are one run up late with one of the best bullpens in the league, which is not used, and we give up the lead and lose.

Can everyone realize you don’t win every game? no harm tonight. There was harm tonite. Games like this against teams in our really weak division are games we need to win and when we start Keuchel, who shouldn’t be starting, and still have a lead in the sixth, this is something we need to put in the bank. We have a pretty tough stretch coming up and we were starting to build a little momentum, so why crush it? 1 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blackout Friday Posted August 11, 2021 Share Posted August 11, 2021 (edited) I can’t imagine this place if there was an actual pennant race. I totally understand if you need an outlet for your frustrations. but the Sox have this. I’m pretty sure they’re treating the rest of the season like playoff Spring Training. I wouldnt get too upset by the day-to-day. Just stay healthy. Edited August 11, 2021 by Blackout Friday Spelling 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But we basically have our lineup back and this lineup was supposedly great. They had three innings to get at least a run and maybe two. My issue is the drunk comment. Honestly it’s old. He is not drunk in the dugout. His team believes In him. I realize this jargon was popular early but it’s time. To just get on Board. He is not an idiot. I know people on the site while they work there day jobs think they can manage the Sox but they can’t. It’s a lot to juggle and and handle. He and the Sox are really doing well. I expect they will do well. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yea but dude you and many others are acting like our coaching staff doesn’t know all these things. Or any of us. This is captain obvious stuff. They wanted to give him a chance to play it out. It’s okay. Edited August 11, 2021 by Jerksticks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chisoxfn Posted August 11, 2021 Share Posted August 11, 2021 Man - keuchel got squeezed on that walk to sano…thought the team would pick him up after giving up that homer. Oh well…double digit lead and Robert is going to take some time to get back in swing of things but Abreu has protection now. I expect we aren’t just going to get Robert and Eloy and Grandal but also get mvp pito and Timmy back with the rest of the band coming together. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
