Nice win. Eloy baby. Tilson baby. Nova was bad but coulda been way worse. We win.

It's obvious he, Eloy and Tim have panned out and will be stars. But we need 3 more starting pitchers, 2 more reliable relievers and many more reliable hitters to win another WS. Lot of work to do. Gonna have to spend a lotta money to go with a few of our prospects who are can't miss like Cease and Robert.

If you are a mediocre pitcher and pitch like Buehrle you have a chance to make it in baseball. His style should be THE ONLY way to pitch.

That was on a tee for Bregman.

I wish we'd hire Buehrle as pitching consultant. Nova works too slow.

Abreu is special.

How did you know? Surprised they didn't appeal.

Nine homers ain't bad and more are coming.

It just took 36 seconds in between pitches. Cmon baseball you can do better.

That's such a poor MLB lineup. I truly don't know how we had a decent first six weeks. My gosh this team has a pathetic make-up.

Signing Jon Jay and Alonso are such fireable offenses! And some of the pitching signings! The fact nobody is fired shows the Sox don't fire people.

He is having a nice season so far. Through 180 at bats he has 29 RBI and 9 homers, hitting .278. Advanced stats are all good. He could easily make the all-star team.

Our roster isn't built to beat Houston in Houston. I would be shocked if we win one game in this series. One is always possible in baseball but frankly I don't see any reason we should get one of four there. Maybe 1-3 at the Cell vs. Houston.

And yet the front office could give a crap about loyal fans. As long as the organization gets all that TV money, who cares about loyal fans? Not Jerry and the rest of 'em. Glad you are rich, Jerry.

Yeah, most of the players are below average on this crap team, but I contend the totally horrific hitters give absolutely no protection to the halfway decent hitters. They also give Verlander the knowledge that this is gonna be one of the easiest wins of his season. I seriously would not object to Fathom or a moderator batting instead of Wellington.

I'd just love to hear him say it rather than accept all the accolades for a dandy performance.

Yes but it's very very easy to throw a 1-hitter against a team that purposely is tanking and putting several inept hitters in the lineup on a daily basis. As well as several pitchers who are unbelievably bad.

I hope you went to see our cool uniforms (not being sarcastic; gotta love the Sox jersey and hat in person) and not the games cause as expected we're getting swept.

Don't make the same mistake some made with Yoan. Eloy is going to be great. This is why he's been brought up. To go through his learning curve this season and next. It pains me to say that, though, to think of all the losses we'll have before the tank job is over. But anyway ... cmon. Eloy will be just like Yoan and Timmy. It takes just a bit of time. He may even rake in July/August for all we know.

Verlander should admit after the game how much easier it is to beat a tanking team than a team that actually tries to win.

The way this season is going Alonso will get his at bats and his big salary guaranteed another year. Why not? It's just $9 million and the Sox have to have a payroll over a certain amount to make it seem like they are at least half-assed trying to win rather than just stuff Jerry's pockets with cold hard cash.

Wow! Love Frazier. Anybody have last night's quotes from Adam? Link? I love Frazier for addressing this.

This is great news. Like most good Sox players, Stone gets taken for granted here. He's the best baseball color announcer in the game (name one better) and is one of the rare first class things about our organization. He probably could be a GM if he wanted to take that path earlier in his career. Stone is a blessing.

Horrible loss. No action. Just heartbreak.

One win max. Probably zero.
