I was a huge bummer fan and defender. IM DONE!

2 years of this crap

Bummer has been frustrating since proclaiming the bullpen wanted to not blow any leads before last year. Dude is ass right now. 

I don't care if this sounds sexist, a woman calling a MLB game makes it sound like a college softball game. 

I really wouldn't mind seeing Bummer gone from this team.

Yikes. Also how did these two get broadcasting gigs? Or are we just spoiled with stoney and Jason?

There are people here who complain about Stoney and Jason but then also complain about every national broadcast. But agreed, we really are spoiled.

not even fucking close. I'd rather have Ruiz in.

Pulling Cease was the correct call.

nah, they weren't asking Cease to pitch another inning, only 1 batter.  I would agree if they were sending him back out for another inning but give him the final out, he just Kd the last guy he faced

This is on Tony and Bummer

blah.

Yeah, he should have made that catch, thought the same thing

Yeah, he faded to the ball instead of running to the spot. Looked like he misread it off the bat.

i've been saying bummer sucks for 3 years now.  many still think he's got great potential.

And you have been wrong for three years. Bummer has been bad in a ridiculously small sample size.

A ball that Robert should have caught and a lucky bounce of the first base bag.

The bizarre thing is that Bummer hasn't been getting GB's this year either

he was cruising. I don't understand how another 4-7 pitches would have hurt him. He was lathered up and in a zone.

High leverage LH reliever is very high on the list of needs for this team

Bummer isn't gonna be dependable until he finds the zone more consistently with his sinker. 

Those percentages in the bottom right, who the fuck cares and how can their accuracy be checked?

Nope.

You're right . Proactive , preventive medicine , like they should 've been doing with Rodon last season !!!

Bummer will be the sox best reliever in 2022. Book it.

Choi's hit had a .930 xBA. Robert coming close to catching that should tell you just how much range he covers. He's just not real good around the wall and warning track though.

There have been balls on the ground, just not outs

If they let him do it every game then it adds up too much. This early it was the correct call.

lol "this day cannot be understated, err, overstated enough" 

turrible! boom goes the dynamite!

got home from work just to see cease pulled, maybe ill go back to work

The dream of a 1.000 BABIP season against Bummer is dead.

This surprises me, especially from you of all posters. 

You would think the sox were losing based on the last two pages...sheeesh
