Sox Mgr. either a dope or betting on Tigers.

How did three runs score on Baez single?

They're gonna let this game get completely out of control. Not like the Sox offense is a juggernaut.

All for a pitcher who has absolutely nothing tonight. As I always say, Grifol has a very tough time deviating from his plans.

Terribly managed game

two scored, it was great baserunning by Greene. edit: or whoever the f*** was behind miggy.

8 walks is absurd

Bullpen will be too late to save this one. 

13-man bullpen, and he leaves him in.

Haase the catcher... 

This is simply terrible managing

88 pitches  3 2/3rds

 He needs to make himself more availaple.

Why wasn't there anyone in the  ready to go? 

Game probably over. I would give Crochet at least 2 innings to kick the rust off and fulfill the promise of stretching him out to be a multi-inning guy this year.

I've been patient, but this is definately a lost opportunity to keep this tied or at worst have two guys on tied. Someone should have been warming during / after the 3rd. It was clear Lucas was done and Dunn.

People need to stop believing that’s part of the plan.

Strange bullpen choices recently...

He didn't want to hurt Giolito's feelings.  He's very sensitive.

I don't blame Grifol for starting Gio in the 4th, but once the homer happened you have to have someone warming up.. no excuse. The fact that he didnt have anyone warming until Baez was up is just plain stupidity

7 walks and two clock violations are not going to cut it. 92 mph Fastballs catching the whole plate are not going to cut it.  Giolito should have been out of this game earlier.

Not at 97... he's got to prove he can go just one inning every other day first. 

Grifol is really bad. Why can't we find even an average manager?

Our upper management is dumber than average.
