Sox are lucky they are only down 1-0 after three. Let’s get some runs..⚾️⚾️⚾️⚾️

Agree. The right field issue has been going on for several seasons, as RH has been too busy dealing for relievers and neglecting RF and 2B.

Agree. We need to have more contact hitters in the line up. I would have preferred Sheets hitting ahead of Grandal and Burger, we probably would have scored the run instead of the 2 Ks with a man on 3rd and one out.

Trout is not on the lineup tonight. Can’t throw him a strike even if you walk him, particularly with the Sox anemic offense.

Kopech didn’t get the memo to not let Ohtani beat us.

Pedro is a creature of habit. Hard for him to adjust/ change.

Suggest to start by blowing Rick Hahn right out of Chicago. He is the architect of most of our failures. He has been GM for too long. We need to bring in a competent outsider IMO.

Pedro got too cute with Grandal PH , and did not account for the 9 th inning of a tied game with Grandal catching.

Grandal pinch hitting was not worth it as his D is horrendous. Particularly with Bummer in the bull pen. Lose on 2 walks and 2 wild pitches/passed balls. Grandal did not move laterally to block both balls. We also need to manufacture runs, bunt, hit and run with Eloy and Robert, etc.

Walks in the bottom of the ninth in a tied game is a recipe for failure.

TA needs to go on the IL or at least benched.

You are right. The Sox are inept in manufacturing runs. Generally need homers to win.

Pedro is not a good manager. He is risk averse and does not adjust. IMO..

Our bottom three of the lineup is brutally bad, and on top of that add TA to them . We have too many holes.

If he is playing, should be hitting no higher than 7 th. Hitting second is a rally non starter and gets the opportunity of more crappy at bats.

RH has turned out to be one of the worse GMs in MLB. No accountability for all his mistakes and omissions.

Unfortunately, Cease did not get the memo to not let Ohtani beat you.

He is in Angel Hernandez territory.

He makes difficult plays look easy. He is also not too emotional and just goes about his business.

Robert probably did not understand the language Grifol was using. Hope he had a translator near by,

Should have won more games with that ERA, but offense is generally anemic.

Benintendi and Robert plus good pitching is bringing me back in. Hope against hope that the Sox don’t disappoint.

Second in the AL in homers behind Ohtani. Pretty soon opponents are going to say don’t let Robert beat us.

Benintendi is the lead off hitter that I was looking for the whole season. Wasted too many opportunities with TA leading off most of the season.

Yes, this ump is bad. He also called a strike on Sheets on Sheets that was clearly a ball…
