Bases loaded with Robert up next…

Vargas cannot try to score there.

Our announcers are as stupid as the coaches 

The “untouchable” Taylor looks bad once again 

Well, I at least take solace in the fact that my post about the offense is once again correct.

Our pitching is just god awful

yet the bullpen era doesn't measure  bed wetting situations

Julien is primed for something big...hope it isn't now.

Benintendi has the noodliest arm. How did this guy win a GG

He was with Boston with the short left field wall. He played it well. He was younger then, probably 2 steps quicker. Didn't take a big arm in Fenway.

Terrible pitch selection there, wtf are they doing 

🤯

I sure hope we've got scouts every damn where.  Independent leagues, Mexican leagues, Latin America, Asia.....I mean, just identify people to take a flyer on, sign em cheap, and give em a shot.  We've literally nothing to lose at this point.  Maybe get lucky and find a diamond in the rough.  Our system has zero answers.

That's what they do.  It's called dumpster dive

It could be the whole Sox organization is overrated when it comes t pitching.

Not sure what they see in Katz.  Pitchers promoted to Charlotte start to suck.

It’s extremely overrated.  They desperately need to find a way to get the two big lefty prospects fixed.

Keep them out of Charlotte.  Coincidence that Vaughn and Montgomery got better? 

Punish this guy. can't throw a strike

We could only hope they move away, but doubt Jerry even cares enough 

Was checking on score on gameday...how the hell do you get a foul out double play 3rd to Catcher with the bases loaded? I'm confused.

It was one of the worst base running games in a long time for the Sox.  3 giant mistakes

3 straight very winnable losses. Let's try to not give them free outs AND free runs tomorrow.

Have they lost every game to the Twins this season?...it sure feels that way.

Saw that happen in Milwaukee early in the 1990 season.

Ventura caught a foul pop down the third base line, had his back turned towards home and the runner broke for the plate. Robin fired a one hop strike, Fisk blocked the play...bingo. Double play.

Plus Boston/NYY media.

See Derek Jeter.

ya know, at least the Sox can pick higher than 10 this year
