TLR never pinch hits with players that have the day off. Total “rest”.

TLR station to station baseball is one of the reasons we don’t win one run games. If we don’t hit a homer we generally lose. No attempt at putting runners in motion, no hit and runs, not putting pressure on the defense or opening holes in the opposing infield.

Any good outfielder would have been more valuable than Kimbrel as an everyday player. Going with Goodwin most of the time has cost us games. He is AAA player. Not making any contact tonight with Billy at third and 1 out was a killer. Wished Cesar would have been hitting ahead of Goodwin instead. He got the ball up in the air.

He will never try. Team is under TLR station to station methodology. Runners are ever hardly in motion. No pressure on the defense.

Have faith. Iglesias has a 2.76 ERA not 0.00 ERA so there is still hope.

Jose has been in a slump, other than the3 run homer he has done zilch. It almost feels like a double play in the making. Not producing in the 3 rd spot lately. Hope he can right the ship soon.

He just would not take a walk. Sheets also would not take a walk swinging at a pitch over his head last inning.

Right on. It was a flat fastball middle middle on 3-2. A shame because Kopech was pitching so well. He missed location , if it would have been up in the zone it would have been a K or at worst a walk.

This season home plate umpiring has been terrible. Worse I have seen in years.

Kopech makes Keuchel look even worse than he is. The performance gap is exponential.

Thank God. I would have had a cardiac event if Keuchel would have come out in the7 th.

Should also blame TLR for leaving him in the game too long.

Because we have a crappy manager that does not go out to win games at all costs.

Tony hardly ever adjusts his ways. He should also be watching the Angels hit and running with Ohtani and avoiding a double play in the last inning, something that he should try with Abreu periodically to stay away from the DP. Tony seems to insist on station to station baseball, which has led to many double plays being hit, as the Sox is primarily a ground ball hitting team.

Junk has proven truer to his name in the 4 th. TLR has no sense of urgency. I think the game is moving a bit too fast for him.

I think Rengifo was the guy who Wright got out with the bases loaded yesterday. He is below the Mendoza line.

Those high exit velos are also hazardous to DK’s health. The beard will not stop those.

The big question of the night is who will be Junkier.

These announcersapparently have not been watching many Sox games this season.

Angels are throwing Junk at us tonight, after throwing Packy at us last night. Sounds like a circus.

Sounds like a good plan.

Hernández was a Gold Glove winner. He is turning DPs quite nicely.

Relievers that cannot throw strikes with a 6 run lead, do not belong in the majors.

We are getting the good Bummer lately.

I never been happier seeing Ruiz coming into a game.
