Nice game, Dylan. Now, maybe we can have a non-disasterous 8th, and get this game in the books as a 'W'.

just send Dylan out, he's cruising.

Cease up to 13th in fWAR amongst starters assuming he's done for tonight

No chance you could start him in the playoffs unless he gets to top 10, obviously.

we sure can hit 101 mph rockets to the 3rd baseman, it's uncanny.

Great job by Cease tonight. This is a very good offense he shut down. Had a few chances to meltdown and he didn't. He just needs consistency and avoiding those meltdown innings. His stuff is good enough to be a No 2 starter on this team.

I've had the entire game muted, myself.

Don't blame you. I'm really getting tired of benetti's Crap. I loved the guy who did the game with stone before Kasper this week

Sox up 5-1 on the road vs a good team.

Check into Sox talk game thread.

1. Wow, Cease gave up a HR, trash.
2. Offense has been shit
3. Benetti and Beckham are the worst thing of all time.

Sums it up pretty good.

Sounds par for the course.

Love the sox but these 2 clowns make watching unbearable

STRONG disagree.  I'm enjoying this more than I did Stone and Len.

I like Robert 2. But I would be OK with Yoan.

I've been calling for this since Spring Training.

RH Starters: TA, YM, JA, EJ, LR, YG, AV, CH, AE

I can stomach Benetti, when he is paired with Stone. But Beckham is so rough, when you get him with Benetti, it is far too bad to listen to.

Those were three straight fastballs to Dickerson. Looked to be an inside fastball off the plate. Not sure if it was a bad pitch. Maybe he didn't get it inside enough. Good job by Dickerson to get his hands in and showcase enough strength to get it over the fence. Would have been better to throw him a breaking ball there. Changeup would have been a good choice after three fastballs. I'm sure Collins made that call.

There's almost no wrong answer when this lineup is healthy for who to bat 2nd. Except for Cesar Hernandez. He is the wrong answer.

Yep, I agree on that. Those are lineups that would win some games.

lol I know you don't like Jason, and he's certainly someone that I get could rub some people the wrong way, but he's not bad at his job; especially comparatively to others in the game.

I actually don't mind Jason....I just hate that damn jingle with an admittedly unreasonable passion.  Beckham is quite awful and brings out the worst in Jason imo.

That 47-115 Detroit team started off 8-4. 

I remember all the panic here in April. 

Robert is right on everything. Feels like a 450 ft bomb is coming for him in the next night or two.

omg i thought that ball was gonna be hit to buffalo.

So now Collins gets on base when there's nobody on and less than 2 outs.

Every time this team loses a game there's panic

Glad he’s in to finish the 7th.  Good job TLR.  Perfect managing

Perfect managing for TLR is normally doing nothing, and not over managing.  If ain’t broke don’t fix it.

KW when we signed him said he was a "baseball savant".  He's right about that.

I think we all hate Gordon a little more than he probably deserves because of his failure to meet expectations as a player. It still feels too soon

Robert has a 300/350/580 season in him and that is 9 WAR at his defensive value.
