Man Vieira has had some shitty luck this outing.

Inning should be over lol

One of the worst games of the season tonight. Sigh.

I guess this game is a bit out of reach now

You still think this team can make the playoffs?

Kind of shocked they got 12 tonight. Ray Ray let us know earlier it’s easier to not give up runs in the majors than it is in AAA. 

Rosenthal in. They will try to give the Sox a chance.

According to Stone, Abreu is having a "magnificent season". Oops.

Many people here would agree. 

Horrific bullpen work tonight. Have lost three straight to a Washington team that is falling apart. And again they let a bad pitcher (SOMEBODY has been beating the crap out of him this season...) do whatever he wants to them. Embarrassing.

Washington is a super talented team that's putting it all together.  They've kicked the Sox ass so far and Scherzer hasn't even faced them.

Well kicking the Sox ass isn't necessarily a difficult thing to do is it?

You guys fail to realize it's hard to excel personally when you play for a team that has been this bad year after year.Can get in bad personal habits, etc., when your performance doesn't really matter to the team. Abreu is a fine hitter and good baseball player. I'd rank him 7 out of 10 or 7.5 to 8.

That doesn’t seem to be affecting Giolito, Moncada, and Anderson.  Abreu was a very good hitter for years but you will need to start accepting his declining years which is all a part of someone’s career.

Ha, yikes. Was it as bad as the box score indicates?

The 1927 Yankees couldn't win with this pitching.

If they're going to win 75 or fewer games that is why. 

Even contending teams have days like this, but the Sox seem to have more than their share. This is what is hard about a rebuild. Not just the losing; it's the pounding on a semi-regular basis.

That's no excuse for an OBP that has consistently hovered below .300 this year
