That's how I felt when they won those 4 straight with the Houston series lol

Will be in attendance tonight.

 

Hoping for similar to Friday's night game. Keep it close and interesting but eyes on the big picture.

 

Holland vs Texas. Tank on....

Surprised Saladino didn't know that was going to drop in.

Holland just has nothing again

Surprised this game is still 5-1. Holland's stuff looks flat.

TA has been looking much better the last few weeks. The kid is smiling and having fun again.

Holland shouldn't be starting anymore. One of the worst starters I've seen for the Sox. He needs to retire

Well at least we know Gio is taking his spot

DFA Holland 5-0 lead and blows it sky high less than 3 innings.

The scout that thought he would be a good fit for the Sox must have been same one who recommended Shields

You said all along it was a horrible fit and that he would get destroyed once it got hot out.

I was hoping I was wrong as he did look good early. I just hope if they sign some guys they want to flip this offseason flyball pitchers should be scratched off the list.

 

But he helped the losing. So in a way, I am sure there were few regrets. $6 million was a bit much for him though.

Yeah he really really sucks now. But Shields has never been good and they gave up players for him. Holland was a wild card signing and he actually had some success for a while. Thats what I was comparing to.

The Covey experiment continues to underwhelm. Thus, tank on!

He sucked to begin with. Missing so much time is only going to make him worse. I don't really know what the Sox see in him, but hopefully it will pay off. It will be interested to see what they do in the rule 5. I read where they Yankees are going to have a 40 man problem. If the Sox have the top pick, they might get someone interesting. Billy McKinney was mentioned.

12 runs already

Fun times.

 

Reds and Giants are cementing that 2nd pick too.

Holland on any other team probably would have been waived by now.
