Brain fart.

He's on third now...?

I hate this. He's already at 87 pitches. Put Sheets in. 

yep, they have Kopech warming up also and a fresh bullpen

Letting Lance bat here when he's likely only going to pitch 1 more inning anyway doesn't make a lot of sense.

What's the point of bullpen depth when you can't pinch hit for your starter 5 innings in?

We are loaded with arms in the pen. Use them.

Good thing the Sox ride their starters every game with more resources devoted to their bullpen than any team in baseball

NL=BS

What a fucking waste. TLR just giving away outs. 

JFC.

Sheets at bat probably would have looked something like that 

How did we go from that very promising double by Eloy to this conclusion of the inning?

Having a Hall of Fame manager is great

People here bitching about why let Lynn hit are the same people who b**** endlessly about the bullpen. 

Can't win. 

 

Ugh what a dumb move

Just tuning in, how shitty does our offense look today?

When neither Moncada or Seby could hit a freaking fly ball.

Yeah that's why I don't hate it is I don't have a lot of confidence in anybody on the bench. Maybe Collins.

Waving the white flag on an inning when the bases are loaded and Lynn is at 87 pitches is a mistake. The entire bullpen is rested.

You absolutely can win if you manage the game logically.

Fully rested pen.  Bummer Kimbrel and Hendricks can pitch every game of the series.

I'm shocked they didn't pinch hit.

Yeah and if the bullpen gave up runs you’ll be ticked. Either way Larussa made the wrong decision in a lot of your minds

Tough call there.  I'm honestly more concerned about anyone off the bench being able to do anything than the pitching situation.  I like Lynn getting at least another inning, but we have a good bullpen.

Regardless, the NL sucks.
