    Boers and Bernstein voice GOOD LUCK WITH YOUR FIRST CRAP

  • How is it possible there hasn’t been one relief prospect that did enough in the minors to get promoted to the majors this year? Just crazy development incompetence.

  • Watch out for Burger, again.

I think he's been better as of late. This team needs whatever arms it can get right now

He has almost a 6.00 ERA in August.

Just about anything is better than what we saw last night. Cannon sucks, but he does have his moments. You just have to hope he's the good version when the game is tight.

Most of them got hurt. Not a lot of depth at the upper levels either.

All the best to Benintendi and his family.

That plus all the injuries.

Wonder if its Brozoban after his weird mound moment last night. If its for injury related moves, then ok. Shove him in the pen as an extra arm. Thats fine.

Hope it’s not Hicks.

Not the guy we wanted to lose for a day or two.

So Doyle, who has never faced deGrom, gets the start instead of Grichuk who is 5/13 with 2 HR against deGrom 🤪🤪

Cannon's been solid for a while outside of getting bitten by the typical International League homer bug.

50K to 13 BB since July started, back to getting whiffs on the fastball. He should be able to give them innings.

Sure, if you want to pretend someone out there is going to give them long innings and no runs. The pen is fried, and even bad long outings are better than burning through multiple relievers to get the same crappy innings.

Its fine if they shove him in the pen and use him in games like last night.

I dont understand this. He has not been good in AAA this year.

Im hoping this is just to eat innings if one of our starters falters these next few games.

Apparently Brian Bannister can't turn crap into gold after all.. Weird, when the team sucked, he was a guru. Now that they have been pretty good, he isn't a guru anymore.

Need a win tonight. Would love to see them play with some urgency here and treat this as a large game.

Unfortunately this year has been mostly turning gold into crap.

Where’s the Soxtalk member who is undefeated when going on tinder dates?

We need you to lock in and commit to going on 31 dates in the next 5 weeks. 😆

Yea - just like every bump in the road and scratch on the surface, they’ll have to make do. At least tomorrow a lefty in Gore is throwing so that would not be a usually Benni day.

Grichuk with some nice numbers against deGrom.

Bingo - that’s why my Lineup from Hell has him hitting third. 💪🏼

Explains why we got this Merkin piece a week ago that is Caulfieldesq:

https://www.mlb.com/news/be-where-your-feet-are-jonathan-cannon-s-journey-of-control-consistency-and-contentment

In his last 9 starts, covering July and August, six of those outings were quality starts and commutatively showed a 1.035 WHIP.

I didn’t realize he had been flashing signs of hope. Eek.
