This is where Maldonado sneaks up to bite the Sox...when you least expect it.

I wish all of the defenders/enablers would return from earlier in the year to admit it probably hasn't worked out as they had imagined. Since Renteria won one game and had to throw Keuchel and a full bullpen game to boot.

It was an issue the minute we signed Eaton...we just were fortunate not to really be tested in this division. But all your weaknesses are exposed in the offseason.

Feels like they will go to Tepera over Crochet and Kimbrel...

That glimmer of hope lasted all of 15-20 minutes.

He can join Royce Ring/Aaron Poreda in dumb reliever picks, along with Burdi.

Dreaded bottom of the lineup...

Maton is garbage.

But there were already questions about his durability coming out of last offseason...and lack of experience.

Guess it could have ended up a whole lot worse than that. Giolito ends up with a pretty terrible line and no contract extension in sight.

Now he's down to 95 mph and we will hear about a strain all offseason...again.

Dwight Gooden or even Syd Finch he is not...

Of course. TLR HOF forever...

Well the season might be decided these next two outs...

velo is down 2 mph from yesterday

You let him actually face Alvarez...what?

Crochet over Bummer the first interesting pen decision...

TLR is going to get roasted if we lose the lead this inning somehow...

Waiting for a Greg comment on 4-5 hour postseason games..

That shockingly worked out okay...so far. Gotta get Giolito the win, lol.

And the dreaded leadoff walk. Ouch.

Feel more confident in those guys than Crochet or Kopech but it has been a constant issue call season long so just have to go with gut/intuition to hopefully get the ball to Hendriks.

Menechino?

Reached way outside of the zone for that one. Eloy and Vaughn both need offseason reset buttons.

Professional at bat....seems like the success rate in those situations has been less than 50% but probably much higher in reality. Astros give one back.
