Ump with a wide strike zone all day and we manufacture zero walks.

It'd be nice to see an aggregate ERA for pitchers making their first start in the majors, and first start against various teams. I wonder if other teams struggle as much as we seem to.

K. Farmer seems to think the pitcher is working us over pretty well, and I'd tend to agree, based on Beckham's performance.

 

Same thing he said last 6 times Sox were shutout this year!

well to be fair Anderson was the third ranked pitching prospect in the majors this past offseason by baseball america....so he's not a complete nobody...nonetheless its very frustrating to be getting shutout by rookie after rookie

Beckham was murdering highly ranked pitching prospects a week ago.

Can you get that with runners on?

 

If it was possible i would...

His ERA coming in to the game was still around 5.60 though

Nix not doing anything to earn playing time.

NO one really is today...

seriously, are we really about to lose 3 of 4 to the a's?

Maybe if he bunted more, the guys behind him would hit HRs.

Indeed. What was supposed to be the worst team in the AL.

Tigers just got swept.

Alexei's got a pair of hits.

+1

so DET just got swept and we gained....nada

This is nonsense not scoring day after day!

there's a team in black that's making a run at that title.

I get your point I am a dumbass that knows nothing. Beckham is GOD and we are scoring at will. I will keep my opinion to myself as obviously I was wrong. Adam Kennedy probably would have homered and Holliday would have as well and then Giambi would have K'd

He's been up and down this year -- pitched well vs. Texas, Tampa Bay, and Seattle, poorly against Anaheim, Detroit, and Texas.

hi dotel

I cannot think of 1 other team that can be shut out this many times, this early in the year and NO real changes of any kind. Someone has to be on the chopping block this is unacceptable for any organization!

I can't believe we go ahead and win 4 straight series and then get dominated by the A's of all teams at home.\

 

So much for that 8-4 homestand.

oh well.

 

sweep the tribe and i'll forget all about this.

Well Dotel doesnt have it today. Good thing it doesnt matter

What an anti-climactic day this turned out to be.
