Rain delay. Turds.

The bullpen ERA went up from 3.97 to 4.33 today...in August.

Cleto's last 5 appearances: 7.2 innings 2 hits 1 bb 13 k

Ventura just hinted Putnam coming off the DL on Friday. So we got that going for us.

Rodon inning 2- backwards k single fly out walk after 0-2 flyout 30 pitches. 2 scoreless innings.

Yay

Sox should pick up Jason Lane. They have nothing to lose. (I see he got outrighted to AAA--oh well)

Rodon- backwards K ground out ground out

I want to hear a postgame announcement of Belisario DFAd--and if they want to add Beckham to that, even better.

Rodon warming. Announcer said two innings possible.

Danish 6 shutout innings on 80 pitches.

Rondon triple. Hawkins RBI double.

It's a tough situation for the bullpen--injuries, poor performance, and a bad back of the rotation for most of the season. It's a lot of stress. Plus the whole major leagues has the same problems, so replacing these guys is really tough.

Rondon almost made a nice play. Danish then got a DP.

This bullpen is 2007-puke worthy.

8 K's thru 4 for Danish

RBI single for Hawkins. 70 ribs.

6 K thru 3 for Danish. When is Montas back?

Can I dream on a 2018 rotation of Sale-Rodon-Danish-Quintana-Adams?

QUOTE (BigHurt3515 @ Aug 3, 2014 -> 04:19 PM) I bet he would be our 2nd best pitcher out of the pen on the MLB team If it were the late 1970's, he'd be sitting in the pen right now.

Before today, Quintana was on pace to make 33 starts and 206 innings. Would 215-220 be better, yeah. But he takes the ball and does the most he can with what he has.

QUOTE (SoxPride18 @ Aug 3, 2014 -> 03:59 PM) Sox win today, they are 4.5 gb.... I can't get excited about that until the Sox are .500.

If the Sox would have won last night, I'd actually be enjoying scoreboard watching right now. That second wildcard may fall to 84 wins.

The Sox pen did have a perfect four inning performance a few weeks ago. They should do that again.
