Ruiz can't throw strikes either.

You hear that? The Royals haven't scored 5 runs since they last played the Sox. LOL

Such horseshit… hit two guys and give up a questionable walk.

Two pitching implosions and the inability to hit with runners on has cost the Sox this game.

Robots now...this is just so bad.

Worst part of all of this is having to wait to see if Kopech gets an MRI on his knee

I would imagine they'll wait 5 days on that, then have one, misread it, be confused why he's not getting better after 9 days, DL him 10 days retroactively to today, be mystified by his continued pain, look at the MRI again, and realize that he needs surgery and will be out for a year.

Has the manager yelled at the umps even once in the past 2 years?

I am sure a guy near 80 yelling at anyone would scare the world.  

Robert’s arm is pathetic

Team gets screwed by the ump and the drunk asshole doesn’t say a thing to protect his players.  Kulpa is probably one of his drinking buddies.

Come on...the asshole hit two guys and was all over the place.  No way he was getting a call.

They are going to lose this game 8-4 and have no bullpen availability for tomorrow.

This is typical of this pathetic organization.

I no longer blame the players as they are not put in position to succeed. 

Nothing like losing 4 of 5 to the Royals. Bunch of bums

This jabroni brings in Ruiz lololol

I’ve heard of the Sox org butchering an injury diagnosis so badly for a minor leaguer, it’s hard to believe.

Yep - unless they suck. Then it just looks like someone celebrating a sack when they're down 35-3.

Who was that dope on the Bears who blew out his knee celebrating a sack under those circumstances?

Game Over.

That's weird, right? I thought he had a plus-arm for some reason.

Scared of the fastball.  What a coward.  Can’t believe he’s another asshole that will be back.

Completely unacceptable to hit 2 batters for a reliever in a tied game.  Don’t understand why Kelly didn’t pitch the 7 th instead and now we get Ruiz.  TLR with another bullpen mismanagement.  Stoney emphasized that Lopez was only used for one batter. Not pinch hitting for Harrison put us behind the 8 ball also.

Wait -- so you're allowed to sac fly a guy in from 3rd?

Instead he treats them like his kids and doesn’t talk to them

If we need to blame someone for this losing effort you can only pick one reason 

Joe Kelly fucking sucks. 

That’s the post. 

Look the Royals got a guy home from 3rd with < 2 outs...can we get 5 or 6 singles in the top of the 9th to tie it?

The Royals have pretty much ruined the Sox season. All the games we've lost to them recently have been winnable. That's a 4 game swing. Would we all be feeling like shit about this team if it was 66-56? I don't think so.

He hit the pitchers mound which slowed the throw.

What’s it, 12 million down the drain next year for him and Diekman?

It did take Tony way too long to figure out Kopech was hurt.

Here we go - 9 strikes.
