Especially with Sale and Quintana looming the next two games.

 

Who's tanking more? Red Sox or Brazil soccer?

Tanaka with 5, 4, 2 and 3 runs given up his last four starts.

 

2.51 ERA on the season still, but is now "only" 12-4.

 

Last two, 13 2/3 IP with 9 ER.

Quintana has a better FIP

 

(Although Tanaka has a considerably better xFIP and SIERA)

Save Petricka. Bring in Webb

Petricka is not going to pitch

Let's hold this five run lead and go home a winner.

163rd now alltime in doubles

 

 

Passed Andre "The Hawk" Dawson

Who else was up in the bullpen ?

On the radio, first DJ said that Flowers needed a day off to clear his mind.

 

then he upped it to two days.

 

Farmio asked, "Should they just go ahead and send him to Cleveland? Or a few days in Florida?"

 

How about Pluto?

Quintana has a better FIP

 

(Although Tanaka has a considerably better xFIP and SIERA)

 

Sounds more like someone from Road Rules/Real World or a tribute to Ruben High Sierra.

 

Who else was up in the bullpen ?

 

 

Surkamp and Putnam earlier.

What in God's name was that throw.

Wow Ortiz is slow.

Flowers another quality at bat.

9 for his last 102 with 49 strikeouts. I don't remember a position player with a streak so bad.

What other team would put up with a streak like that?

Tflo doesn't lead the league in SO if that's what someone said earlier.

Nice win 8-3

What other team would put up with a streak like that?

He was leading the league in hitting at one point.

Go Sox! Haven't been on or watched lately but nice to see us playing better pitching well

Before tonight, Springer (Astros) had 11 more Ks in 53 more plate appearances.

 

 

9 for his last 102 with 49 strikeouts. I don't remember a position player with a streak so bad.

 

Nope, they usually get optioned/DFA'd before it gets that bad.

The TFE (Tyler Flowers Era/Experiment) must end. It was obvious to me a month ago, but at this point it must be painfully obvious to anyone who can see and/or has access to statistics that this man has no business being in a major league uniform. I'm sure he's a great guy and he looks like he works hard, but an MLB player he is not.

 

He will find another line of work. It'll be ok.

 

Actually, maybe he could take over as manager! It's possible he could be less inept than the dumb s*** that keeps trotting him out there.

 

The Salas Effect! Hail to the Chieftain!

Pitchers must like him.

Cooper must like him.
