Same as Ozzie. That's not going to cut it.

The Mexican League team, of course.

Graveman almost literally sent to an early grave on the mound. 

Burger wasn't going to do anything with the strike 3 pitch same with Grandal.  

Why bother wasting Graveman in this game?

Just giving him work to keep the rust off. He didn't pitch in Seattle.

The bullpen management tonight is despicable.  Use every good arm next two nights with day off Thursday regardless. I can't get past Scholtens only faced 2 guys.

Why isn't Lopez in here to mop up.

Let's give 'em a finish, boys!

Barring Extra Innings, this is the Bullpen Workload over the past 3 and 5 games.

Cease needs to give them 6-7 tomorrow to get them to Wednesday and the off day. Look for Crochet to go 1-2 for certain, Santos and Graveman possibilities.

• Tanner Banks 63 109
• Aaron Bummer 37 45
• Garrett Crochet 0 22
• Kendall Graveman 11 29
• Joe Kelly 18 35
• Reynaldo Lopez 29 29
• Keynan Middleton 38 38
• Gregory Santos 19 36
• Jessee Scholtens 25 39

In the Mexican league?

I’m a fan, but Burger’s swing is all messed up.  Almost seems like he’s falling over on some of these swings.

JR should move the franchise to the Mexican league.  They might have a slightly better record there.  Might.  Slightly better.

No $100M in revenue sharing to pocket.

Yikes, extremely ugly at bat

Does anyone get excited to watch Sox games anymore? When the bases were loaded in the 8th inning, I knew they weren’t going to score. I just didn’t have faith Grandal was going to do anything and unfortunately I figured Burger was going to swing at something out of the zone.

This team has flaws all over the place, they should probably make moves with veterans at the deadline unless they want to die with the sinking Titanic.

Remillard down to .606, thanks for the Saturday memory that you'll be able to cherish.

Sox lead the world in swinging at sliders that miss by 2 feet

These guys get themselves out so easily

Jerry's not in it for the money.  He loves the game.

They’re just freaking awful. Trade everyone and fire Hahn/Grifol

Welp

The Sox were showcasing Kelly and Graveman directly to the Rangers tonight.

 

 

Bill Veeck would be handing out a free ticket voucher to the people who actually showed up among the 15,554 paid attendance after this game.

Am I wrong in saying only Robert would even start on this Rangers team?
