I went to look at the A ball team, since it was mentioned where pitching for the organization was....yikes

 

Most of these guys are playing in affiliated ball for the first time, it was always going to be a struggle for Kanny,results wise.

Except you can’t say that and you also can’t acknowledge that he has fallen off a cliff. 

Oh I will. He's been playing like absolute crap. if he can't hit he's useless on this team. 

4 real extra base hits all month for Yermin is brutal.  Madrigal laughs at that

The at bats are not looking nearly as good as they were. This being said, he has still be productive for us and it's not time to jump ship yet.

Speaking of 'someone needs a day or 2 off'....his production has been Yerminated.

Woof.  That’s rough.  Dropping him lower might be a good call.

It's almost as if we had no interest in winning this game. We got the first and mail it in with the pregame lineup. 

Five guys at .215 or less in the order today when it started.

Lambert has got nothing. Please tell me he isn't the best the Sox have down on the farm.

The guy has a 7.71 ERA in AAA.  If we don’t have anyone better we got a problem.

Lambert/Burr combo for the game, at least gets the pen ready for the last 2 games, I guess....something positive.

Death by bloop single

Oh I agree but the dudes on here will crucify you. Yermin is 100 percent useless if he isn’t hitting 

At least half the hits off Lambert are perfect duck snorts.

Yeah it was bad. Especially with Justin Bieber going tomorrow. I did not like the approach to this game.

Speaking of useless, your last 18 posts have been used up on bitching about Yermin Mercedes.  Maybe you should try making some adjustments.

Yeah If you are gonna punt a game, Bieber might not have been a terrible plan. 

Cmon Jim, fight out of this inning just to feel good about the effort.  

All things considered, decent start for Lambert. He lost it a bit in the 3rd, but most of the hits off him were perfectly placed bloops.

He's not.  He's the guy who was on the 40 man roster whose pitching cycle corresponded with this game.

Okay then agree with me. He’s batting like .95 his last 7 games. Dude needs to learn to play a position or get sent down because billy Hamilton is driving in more runs at this point

Fun with decimals there.

7.36 ERA in the bigs, 7.71 in AAA....clearly, a better MLB pitcher than minor league pitcher.

Poor thing I’ll keep calling that dude out for being less valuable than billy Hamilton lol this is why he was traded for some baseballs

Yep.  Wasn’t good but didn’t get blown up.  Still have an outside shot at winning through four (fingers crossed Burr gets this last out.)

It would’ve been surprising if Yermin didn’t have a stretch like this during 2021. Real question is what happens going forward. Net net everything is still really positive for him, but nobody can make a definitive LT judgement based on the last 1-2 weeks
