Bummer needs to execute better. Hes been incredibly disappointing.

The Rays have a horse shoe the size of FL up their ass, thoroughly outplayed yet get the lead...and the Sox bullpen loses yet another lead.

Horrible managing

If the Sox don’t trust Kimbrel vs. Lowe, OMG.

Tony is showing this team usually wins despite him, not because of him.

Yeah and I don’t get planning on Bummer closing (clearly)

Fuck kimbrel

Fuck bummer

 

Look at this TB Lineup and this elite bullpen couldn’t hold the lead. Good luck in October

White sox have blown like 5 gio wins this year. 

Bullpen is just not good and Tony's decisions don't make a ton of sense

IF I was Kimbrel I would ask to be released. what a terrible choice to pull him. geez. 

You would be told to fuck off and come to work tomorrow

Edited August 21, 20214 yr by mqr

Imagine putting the go ahead (winning) run on 2nd base to face a guy whose OPS is almost 800.

You know I kinda prefer those 7 inning games.

So fucking predictable.  Bullpen forgets how to throw strikes yet again.

Lol

The fucking kimbrel stans are the weirdest people on this site.

Literally makes no sense to trade for him and then not allow him to do what you traded him for

WTF did Tony do? No one was throwing strikes! 

First of all, it seemed a little odd to bring in Kimbrel in the 8th against the bottom of their order.

Then, pulling Kimbrel for platoon splits, when they were just going to bring in Arozarena and then Franco and Cruz were up next?

This game doesn’t matter much. But you get kimbrel for this. This is overthinking and bad managing and will cost us in october

More like Kimbrel looking horrible will cost them. He was lucky to get any outs that inning.

Now those runs we left on third base hurt even more. 

Pen has to be the worst in baseball in 8th inning era

Gotta throw fucking strikes.

I am NOT a Kimbrel stan. But he was Clearly pissed he got pulled after striking out the toughest batter of the sequence. 

Guy couldn't find the zone and one of the two outs he got was a complete rocket. Guy has just been trash since he got here.

This team will not make past the first round.  This shit is passed old!

Game is on Kimbrel and Bummer. Gotta be able to throw fucking strikes. 

Bummer has been dominating with his slider and not sinker. Meanwhile he just kept throwing sinker after sinker.

Kinda sad he can’t even get through an inning.  Right call by Tony.

Not sure. Arozarena pinch hitting was predictable and he has been hot. Bummer would need to face three also. I would have stayed with Kimbrel.  Kimbrel very unhappy per MLB/Rays announcer. TLR tends to over manage in critical situations. The Rays announcers are roasting TLR big time.  TLR really screwed this inning big time and possibly lose Kimbrel in the process.  Can’t believe he Intentionally walk Cruz to load the bases and put the lead run in scoring position.  This would get a lesser manager fired.

Fuck la russa

Herp derp

Lucas should have gone back out IMO, who knows if he wasn’t feeling it, but this jsut seems like Tony trying to get “involved” in the game.
