Swing. The. Fucking. Bat. Or just stand there and look at three straight strikes.

Two strike counts in MLB just .168 average.

Had to knock out Mckenzie early.

That mission failed ... and Lynn will tire with these quick innings in response by the Sox offense.

Yes but he should of swung with 2 strikes

Yes, but he should of swung with 2 strikes. It was hittable pitch. I’ve seen him swing at worse pitches than that. 

Moncada continuing to play stellar defense. He's so damn good charging in on the ball like that.

It would a shame if we waste this start by Lynne after yesterday’s debacle. 

That's a phenomenal play by Moncada.

Gurriel Rosario Devers Arraez Suzuki five best active batting averages vs. Sox.

Thank you TLR for another inexplicable lineup construction tonight.  Another unforced error IMO.

2 2/3rd's?  If he can get though six it's going to be a minor miracle.

Oh and PS, Giolitto needs to go, or at least go to the bullpen and let Lopez start in his place at least once.

Right now Moncada is the player that i had always hoped he would be . hope that it lasts.

We have been wasting many good starts this season.

So run up his pitching count by swining at balls?

What do you mean, didn’t he get called out. Taking that pitch didn’t raise the pitch count, right? If he swings maybe he fouls it off or worse case scenario someone has to make a play.

Jose is a singles machine right now

The two prior to that were no doubter strikes. After taking two strikes in a row, you can't fucking sit there and watch the next pitch, especially when it's that close.

All three of those pitches were hittable.

If the balls is in play, many things can happen. 

Moncada blown away.

Here comes another DP.

Everything on the corners is getting called a strike right now.

Lopez is more likely to be closer than starter.

It would take the rest of the season for him to go four innings.
