It's so frustrating watching this guy pitch. Throw strikes you fuck!
Wtf E Rod get it together. You can see him getting frustrated.
Rodriguez just sucks dick!
Rodriguez needs to throw up a couple of zeros the next couple of innings. Keep the game at hand!
Yesterday the last three were all batting lefty--Moreland, Leon, and JBJ--and had all the rbi's and 4 of the runs scored.
I'm no HanRam fan, not by a longshot, but I'm not sure 4th is best for Devers. As his splits currently show, he has batted 5th about 38 times with an OPS of somewhere around .940. He has batted 6th, 7th, and 9th a collective total of 40 at bats with an OPS of 1.225. That's about a 300 point difference. Those are of course small sample sizes, but so is yours (including all at bats since he joined the team).
Get some offense going! Let's go!
Last two starts, including this one, by Rodriguez suggest that he is not fully ready in the first two innings and tends to over-rely on his fastball and more importantly to throw a lot of pitches well inside the strike zone and up. Last time 4 runs in the 2d, this time 3. Then suddenly he looks pretty good in the next inning(s).

Terrible at bat by Nunez. That fourth pitch, a fastball right in the middle of the zone, was the third fastball in that at bat.
