2 hours ago2 hr 2 walkoff losses in a row sucks.Find a way to win this afternoon and split the season series and stay up 4 games in the division.Let's start by not giving up 2 home runs in the 1st.
2 hours ago2 hr 6 hours ago, fathom said:Someone said Thorpe is capped at 75 pitches this yearI said his max pitches thrown were 75 last start. He’s continued to go up in pitch count each start and I’d expect that to continue until he reaches about 100.
1 hour ago1 hr I woke up in the middle of the night and saw a Google notification saying the Sox won 4-3. I didn't know they lost (in another walk-off) until I came to SoxTalk. Sucks, but I'm less concerned about losing to the Cubs than their record against the AL Central. That being said, they really need to win today.
1 hour ago1 hr You know you’re pitching is in trouble when “undecided” is a regular spot in the rotation!

There’s no way this starting pitching is remotely equipped for the stretch run.

They didn’t really need a CF that swings a wet newspaper.Being completely fair about this, this season was also a huge overcorrection from their lack of effort at the deadline last season. They caught a tremendous amount of s%*# last season and that even carried over to this season with good ole Bruce
50 minutes ago50 min Tip of the hat to Fedde for his excellent 4.2 innings.8/28 @ Twins: Davis Martin's return could be just what this team needs.

There’s no way this starting pitching is remotely equipped for the stretch run.Otoh Steele and/or Horton are going to be back at some point next season.But yeah, Suzuki Happ Imanaga (complicated contract, and time to go back into FA but no great pitchers after Skubal either)...
