say goodbye to the Run Differential title after today. Sox were never gonna lead in that category all year anyway

Jesus Christ what was the exit velocity on that

117.4

Leave Judge in a 7-0 game to hit, then take him out for a runner. Bush league.

Very unsportsmanlike. 

I think the standard margin of calling off the hounds is about 10 runs and a position pitcher on the mound. Everyone has been telling the Twins to stop the Sox instead of complaining.  I think we’ve got to be consistent.

Aaron Judge is gonna win a couple MVPs in his career

I agree.. If he can play enough. 

The starting pitching has allowed for a false sense of security on this lineup. The playoffs will not be kind.

Why was he ripping the ball up 7-0 in the 8th?  He should've taken that pitch.  Teach him a lesson Tony!

I never thought the Run Differential meant anything, especially at this time of the season. The Sox can pile on the runs one day, and get nothing or next to nothing the next. I'd like to see more consistency offensively but that is hard without Eloy and Robert and the fact that Adam Eaton was the solution in right field.

I think you're missing some obvious sarcasm in this thread.

Well, that was pathetic. 

When we had chances with Cole in the first few innings, we hit into 4 double plays. You think we would try at least a hit and run or steal attempt, avoid DP and get the Yankees defense moving. At the end of the day, Cole threw 10 ground outs and 1 fly ball. TLR should have known better.

No. One. In. Baseball. Is. Hitting.

Jeeze. 

Sox will get robert and eloy back for the playoffs too.

*if they get there.

But at least it will be quick.

DA:  I encourage you to look at the video of Mercedes glancing down to the third base coach for a sign, seemingly ignoring it or blowing it off, and loading up for the meaningless HR already while up 11 runs at the end of the game. He pimped it a bit and all the gold necklaces jangling around his neck  as he rounded the bases didn't take away from that perception. 

Forget what you think about LaRussa for a minute  (and it has already been discussed ad nauseum)  wouldn't it serve Mercedes better as a rookie to be a little more low key, more respectful and a bit humble? Or maybe that is another old school, unwritten rule that doesn't matter either.

So Mercedes is a fluke start to the year but Taillon isn’t?

Or maybe you let “Manny be Manny” and continue to kick ass.  Instead we have a team dealing all week with a stupid, unnecessary distraction and playing some of its worst baseball of the season.

You seem to get more enjoyment out of seeing your own team lose than any fan I've ever seen in my life.  If you've already pre-determined the outcome of tomorrow's game please do youself a favor and don't watch or bug everyone else.

When do we get to play Detroit, KC, or Minnesota again??

4 against Orioles next week.  Better go 3-1

The Yankees are pretty damn good.  Winning tomorrow is important and I don't see how anybody could be angry with 1/3 in New York if that were to happen.  I'll save my anger for tomorrow if they lose.
