Leury may get a chance to pitch this inning.

Oops 11.

Sox off Ranger pen: 1 hit, 1 walk, 10 strike outs.

5 consecutive k’s.

Burger would have had that one.

Sub .500 with no guarantee for tomorrow and they’re gonna spit on this game. Understandable, I guess, but hard to be a contender playing like this.

sox are a different team against right handed sliders

You are not kidding. Just watched the highlights of the homers they hit against ND. Geez, it’s a team of 100 percent a-holes.

Jimmy Lambert ought to make dinner reservations in Charlotte. Even if Grandal is day to day, you gotta bring up a catcher.

It’s amazing how all of our switch hitters are swinging it better righty.

Hernandez ended 2-3 with 2bb 2sb and somehow scored only 1 run. Chapelli was 2-4 with a bb. DSL means nothing, but they won 8-0, and seem to be winning a lot in the early going.

Well, yeah. It’s just a game. People enjoy talking about bizarre strategy choices in a game. It’s a weird choice, kinda fascinating. If everything else was clicking on all cylinders, people would still find it fascinating. Given the spectacle de merde that this season has been, people have understandably added some emotion to their fascination.

Right. Vaughn came directly from A ball. Bring up Wes Kath!

Anderson Comas pitched in relief. Is that a position player pitching or has he converted? I remember early on he had buzz comparable to Mieses.

He really reminds me of Haseley during his draft year at UVa. Former two-way guy who finds power in his draft year. But the Sox have to fill the hole left by Steele Walker somehow.

He's like 0-25 and his OPS is still .950. Gotta be tough being an Angels fan. They're huge baseball fans down in O.C., very knowledgeable. They have at least 2 of the best players in the game and... I mean, they're never catching Houston now.

At least they got something for Walker. Gonzalez was a headscratcher at the time.

Burke 5IP 2H 0R 2bb 4K so far. No Sosa or Cespedes today Kelley 4IP 3H 0R 0bb 2K pulled after only 49 pitches Kath 1-2 2bb

I am going to Kanny to catch the game on the 26th. I hope to either him or Mena as the rest of their pitching is somewhat suspect. Add in Montgomery, Kath, and Veras, and there are definitely guys worth seeing down there.

Semien is one of my favorite Sox prospects of all time. I can see the similarity. Both play 3 positions. Both have good bat to ball skills. Semien was Southern League MVP and Sosa is trending that way. One difference, and this surprises me, Sosa is walking more.

To be fair, I believe Morel was repeating AA.

Sosa 2-3 with a HR. Colas 1-4 with a triple.

Kath ended up 2-3 with 2bb and 1k. Montgomery was 3-5. Otherwise, not much. Kanny loses 7-6.

In Sox last 2 wins, their opponents are 2-18 w/RISP and 18 left. So, they have to start scoring more runs, because no one has that strand rate.

Kath hits another HR. He may be figuring it out.
