Never want to see that dude again. Bullpen or in the rotation 

Sucks we’re just giving this game away, although it gives me an excuse to not be a shitty father and hang out with my kid

Not even the 3rd inning and I am already frustrated

Sox trail, so Detwiler may enter. 

Never mind, nice hook Ricky!

The Lopez experiment needs to end. We arent bottom feeders anymore and cant afford the time to have him 'figure it out'.

This is his, what, 5th year in the majors? 4th maybe? This is who he is

I think we’re seeing what Harold was saying all these years. He could be a solid player, but he has a very low ceiling for the 4th pick 

His ceiling is ridiculously low. Probably shouldn't have even been a first round pick. 

This has to be it right? Don’t think they pull him so early unless they were ready to pull the plug on him as a SP

Shame on the Sox for thinking he should start this game. These guys really screwed up not bringing in a pitcher at the deadline. Again, what do Ricky and Hahn know about trying to win?

lol, Reyloldo Nopez

Fuck you son, I got a game to watch now!

Detwiler to the rescue

We need to win this game. Going 4 and 8 against Cleveland and Minnesota would not be a good look. 

Reylo is wrecked. If Dunning keeps it up...2 out of 3 from the Eaton deal is a big win.

You can put this game on Reylo...I put it on Hahn. They could have made a trade for at least a serviceable rental or short term starter. He did not and we just gave up an automatic loss in the most important game of the season.

Should someone tell him or no

Nothing changed with the Sox in Minnesota 

They just came from behind and won 2 days ago. Last night they lost 3-2. Today they're getting crushed because their pitcher had another awful outing. Shut up with this nonsense

The soxtalk gamethread experience: Sox are losing, fathom drops a hot take only to be outdone by an even hotter take by Parkman.

we're kind of acting like big shit after the first game....

 

But we look like the same mental fuck up as usual.

Madrigals defense is fine.  Maybe the pitcher needs to not shit his pants.  Sox have no business winning this game and will most likely be shut out and if not for Kepler's error be swept. 

I feel for Lopez. Sad to see what he’s become. Sad to watch him walk off the mound like he did. Time to move on

He’s significantly worse now than when we got him and when he came up for the Sox.

One mistake and Madrigal is suddenly horrible

You must have missed his lollipop throw to 2nd that should have cost us a run... and the error he just made that allowed 2 runs to score.

I have been Rey Lopez's biggest defender but short of getting rid of the out-of-touch pitching coach (which will never happen because he plays multiple roles for the owner), the great experiment has got to come to an end.

And I loathed Josh Donaldson.
