This is the most frustrating 5 run lead in history.  What the heck would a good offense do with 9 walks, 2 catcher interferences, and another error?  The Dodgers would put up a 20.

That ball woulda hit off Yermins glove and landed over the outfield wall for a grand slam. MERCY

We will see in October ?

Maybe it's playing with fire, but I'd use Ruiz and try not to burn Heuer for tomorrow.

Is Collins actually the better defensive catcher?

In April 2021 he is.  We shall see moving forward.  It's undeniable however that Collins has gotten much better and Grandal is at least an older version of the same guy he has always been.

Ruiz has been good.  I'm not sure if he's available.  But why didn't Marshall pitch longer?

Goes to show, just because someone came up with equation doesn’t mean it’s valid.

Fangraphs is infallible.

Good point. After 39 pitches yesterday, he probably isn't available.

Yeah we're going to win this one but let's remember where the Indians offense ranks amongst the others in baseball.  Even though it's going to be a win, we're playing losing baseball.

The Sox have given 12 free passes:

9 BBs

1 Error 

2 CIs

That's just outrageous.     Only the Indians suck of an offense is the reason this is not a 10-8 game the other way right now. 

 

 

 

Moncada cant hit a breaking ball to save his life

yoan needs to have someone throw him about 100 curveballs to hit... he looks like cerrano out there.

 

maybe he needs joboo.

Reyes loves to go the other way. Bust him in?

Grandal man...Jesus...

Throw fucking strikes.  Can question the defense all you want but walking 9 and the the act of the catcher isnt helping the defense in 30 degree weather.

Squeeze it, b****!?

You will not catch this ball, you JACKASS

Grandal brutal tonight.

Don't sweat it everyone, Ron knows we already won this game.

Nice glove Yasmani.

No words.

That one never had the plate ?

I wouldn't mind seeing Collins get alot more catching starts to be honest. Then hope the bat will come.

Lol Grandal did buy that one
