8 hours ago8 hr Games like these feel worse to me than the 2 stinkers in NY, cause this was 100% winnable. Edited 8 hours ago8 hr by DoUEvenShift
8 hours ago8 hr Swing at a pitch way out of the zone trying to make something happen.Vargas doesn't get a chance to hit.
8 hours ago8 hr Lost one we could have won, but it is what it is....if you told me we ran Fedde vs Skubal out there on the road, and lost 4-3, I'd say you're lying. Go win the next 2.

8 hours ago8 hr Verlander not pitching SundayK.Montero vs MartinThe big question is pitching and bullpen tmrw.Getting another look at Melton.
8 hours ago8 hr Also, wasn’t online at the time, but I promise I would have been asking for a reliever to face Carpenter. Hasn’t he destroyed the Sox?

Hasn’t he destroyed the Sox?Yes and they just happen to have five lefties in the pen...well maybe not HudsonFedde did have something like nine in a row retired before that inning
8 hours ago8 hr also, the opener continues to make our pitching way too thin. Hudson might be used in the 6th if not used yesterday.
8 hours ago8 hr Given how most people would have viewed the matchup coming in, a one swing/dive outcome isn't the worst....But man it would have been a nice one to steal.Really tough luck loss for Fedde tonight, he pitched well. With the rested pen, maybe they should have just went in willing to pull him early if he struggled instead of opening with Eisert. Didn't really seem like he needed the training wheels vs. the Tigers lineup.

Quero was terrible as a framer last year.That's because it's true the HP umps suck. There's no great framing going on. It's lazy umps.

Hudson might be used in the 6th if not used yesterday.Fedde was doing fine, he pitches that inning even with Hudson available IMO.And Hudson was getting to the point where he needed work regardless, it had been 4 days since he pitched.Taylor is also getting to that point, hasn't pitched since the Dodgers series.

8 hours ago8 hr 53 minutes ago, Jake said:That dive was a PCA-esque mistake.And Peters is not a PCA caliber defender. That dive probably cost us the game. He also swung at ball four in the 9 th. With 2 outs and Vargas on deck. Savannah Bananas did not help the Sox tonight. Let’s get them tomorrow!
