Yeah, I'm totally good with Sale just ending it right here. 100 pitches, been sitting for like 20 minutes. With the way Humber saved our pen last night, we can go Septimo, Jones, Reed from here on out.

But no Thornton.

Robin will probably give Sale 1 more inning.

 

I'd be ok with him getting 1 batter, just so he can get the standing ovation as he exits. That's the one thing Ozzie was really good about doing, letting the fans give our pitchers some love.

But no Thornton.

 

No Thornton unless we score another few runs.

No Thornton unless we score another few runs.

Like another 6.

Sox 6-1 thru 6

Yeah, I suppose I'd be OK with the one more batter, but I really don't think there's any reason to push him.

No chance in hell Sale starts on Friday.

......and just like that, Robin leaves Sale in 1 batter too long.......good god....

Why do you send Sale back out there? It's f***ing stupid.

Man, why is he still in th ere...

We gotta get Axelrod and Santiago up here.

I would of pulled Sale.

please robin, get a f***ing clue and take him out

Good job, Chris!!!!!!!!

It's funny everyone on this site said "Take him out now" or "Give him 1 more batter".....and yet Robin blew past both those ideas, and allowed Sale to give up another run and leave on a low note.........awful Robin, awful.

it's a case of the starter protecting the bullpen that Robin and Coop don't want to use for 3 innings today.

Robin just wants to be all dramatic about it and pull him in the middle of the inning so he gets his applause. Instead of doing the smart thing, he does the dramatic thing.

Porcello being Porcello 6-0 Tex

You realize the bullpen has been overused lately?

Great seeing Yu Darvish get back on track today!

I have NO problem with it.

It's weird saying this, but I'll be quite happy when the rosters expand and we could turn a game like this over to lower leverage arms but still rest Sale.

Sox 6-2 thru 7

A few more runs will be ok.

Well, I sure was wrong about Wise/Olmedo being in the lineup today
