Hitters have no concept of the strike zone. Seems like McCann is chasing awful sliders far more often than he did earlier in the year.

Barlow is not that good. We're making him look like Kimbrel out there.

No bueno. He's gonna get the Alonso treatment next year.

Cordell swung at a pitch that was almost so bad it was off the pitchcast.  These guys have no focus at the plate.

That GM of ours sure can recognize talent in free agency.

So we DFA Rondon now since Goins can hit ball and Rondon bad at hit ball.

Goins is 31.  It’s like watching Jay get hits.  Pointless.

I was kidding, except for the DFA Rondon part.

While I don't disagree, anything that would get Rondon off this roster is fine by me.

Moncada could easily have 2 walks tonight. Been getting out on shit pitches.

Thank God these guys didn’t take BP today. It’s been a long road trip right after the All star break. Fire Ricky already. 

Really really really hate our approach to hitting.

No walks and strike out a lot.. with not much home run power.

Seems like a winning formula.

It keeps going like this and he will be.

They just keep swinging at offspeed pitches out of the zone

is Bummer still alive?

That's why this team can lose 5 in a row but not win 5 in a row.

Don't worry. Benniti said the team has had only three five-game losing streaks. He didn't mention any long winning streaks. Gee, Jason, I feel better now.

Nothing like helping Colome lose more trade value.  They really, really need to trade him.

Bennetti is a condescending guy. Always bickering and needs the last word. 

Maybe these switch hitters should try staying with their strong side when in a funk. Try #$&%@ something

Yep. He was only acquired to flip so the Sox better flip him. Ain't no point to have a closer on a tanking team.

Sounds great to me

If someone is getting hits it isn’t meaningless. Age is meaningless unless you’re dead 

Colome trade value falling like a rock
