    Oh I’m sure he is injured, and at this point just hope he doesn’t go on the IL.  If anything, want him healthy for Cubs and Pirates and Royals as this team needs to rack up wins while Indians play Red Sox.

    I actually dont think the Indians have given up.  If civale and Bieber come back in a week or two and they can get to 4-5 games behind they have a 5 game set with the sox in cleveland which they can go all in to win, I know its a long shot for sure but its something for them to play for. The sox do need to pull together some wins. Road Warriors we are not.

    It’s ironic because Friday was Timmy using his speed as effectively as he has all year.  Sure didn’t look banged up running home twice on infield grounders.

    If he said he is banged up and can’t go I think it’s probably true fathom. I cannot see this being a Larussa thing. It is probably more than just tired legs. The guy is the heart of the team I am Sure he doesn’t want to be out 3 games unless something is really bothering him. I just hope it’s not more serious.

    Good idea. Hopefully just to rest and not an issue already.

    PTATC if its just rest would he be getting checked out by the docs? is rest usually helpful if in pain?  honestly asking, the guy probably knows his body so well that if he feels something he knows its really something.

    This is exactly why give Rodon a big multi year deal is absurd. 

    completely agree. Boras was salivating for a big deal , now depending on if surgery is needed I actually think a one year with an option and innings incentives are quite doable. Disappointed though I hope he is back by end of september. We need him in the playoffs.

      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?

    I get the frustration. 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.

    Yes, there is harm.  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.

    Do you think we will win every game ? Do you think others will? Save your heart attack for 60 like me . 

  7. 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.
