What about... two... Montgomerys?

He hit it hard, but yes.

Sheesh even we went two whole games before giving up 5 to Cleveland.

You know I thought the cuck chair would be a lot more fun than this.

The team we saw in the first four games of the postseason would absolutely have a chance this series.

Seven qualifying batters hit over .300 this year. .316 was the batting title. It's just not how the game is played anymore.

Bonemer is probably up before the all star break assuming he handles AAA well. Cholowsky I think needs a year in the minors, especially since he got hurt. He could certainly force the issue though.

If they think Quero can do it then I agree. Otherwise Bart is their best option I think.

Joey Bart is still under contract. I imagine it'll be him.

They had Schultz starting until he showed he wasn't ready yet. Smith had too many command issues to trust going for longer than a couple innings. They'll 100% have both prepped to be starters next year unless they don't think they can do it.

There's no definitive medical reason that limits innings. Prep them all to be starters and whoever is good will stay a starter until they're no longer good. Whoever isn't goes in the bullpen.

They were chanting “f*** the [Red] Sox” after beating them too. Ramirez was jawing at someone on the Sox in this series too I believe. Just a bunch of assholes. I hope Tampa mocks the s%*# out of them after they kick their asses.

LMAO yes you did it’s right there in the post you quoted I even bolded it for you. Here, let me post it again in case you have selective blindness: See? It’s the hitters fault for not getting enough hits. By your own words. Thanks for the laughs, have a good night!

Uh yeah you sure did

Do you not know what happened in games three or four or what? You arguing with me about this in multiple threads is mind boggling

They had THREE games to win. Not just tonight. Even halfway decent pitching wins you one of those two games at home and you don't have to go into the opposing team's stadium after losing all momentum and win an elimination game. Yeah the offense sucked tonight but blaming them for a complete pitching collapse at home when you had a series win at your fingertips is just mind boggling.

They walked like 10 or more each game. You don’t win that way even against a mediocre offense like Cleveland.

Hopefully they can take the next step and pick up some quality reinforcements in FA

It’s wild that you’re blaming giving up 9 runs per game at home when you only need one win on the offense.

They gave up 18 runs in 2 games when the offense scored enough to win in at least one of those games.

They gave up 18 runs in 2 games with like infinity walks and completely destroyed all the teams momentum what in the world are you talking about?

It was the pitching. They completely destroyed any momentum we had.

Yeah let’s fire the coach of the offense that scored the most runs in the AL based on the results of three games, one of which they scored more than enough to win if the pitching didn’t implode.

Yup. Just wish they didn’t lose to CLEVELAND. That’s what’s really bumming me out right now. If it was Tampa or the Yankees it wouldn’t be nearly so annoying.

I’m pretty damn bummed right now but I have to admit I’m really enjoying these crashouts.
