Pedey is having a miserable season

Pedey is having a miserable season

As are the Red Sox. Sucks badly.

[Spudboy]

This game has started poorly.

[Spudboy]

With this season a lost cause I'd like to see Holt, Bradley, and XB play well.

[NativeBostonian]

This game has started poorly.

If I had a dollar for every time that has happened this season, I'd be able to buy the Red Sox.

[Spudboy]

A sign of life!

RUNS!!!!!!

[Spudboy]

Come on Bradley!

[Spudboy]

Pedey!

1-1

[BigPapi]

Really. Anthony gose.

[d-money]

De la rosa is so predictable!! This is the problem with having a young rotation next year.De La Rosa has lousy location.The thought of letting lester go could be disastrous

[NativeBostonian]

Do we have any good pitchers in our farm system? I'm not impressed with what I've seen so far.

Think of it this way. None of us have heard of this kid Marcus Stroman before we played him last week and he has owned us and has been very good this year. Out prospects are overrated.

I am starting to think that as well.They better resign Lester

[BigPapi]

And when you have overrated prospects, you trade them before you get stuck with them.

[BigPapi]

Ruby is just inconsistent. He can give you dominant outings and then next time out he will pitch poorly.

[d-money]

He has great velocity but the location is not good

[BigPapi]

What a play jose

[Station 13]

What's with this damn offense?

[BigPapi]

We have to get a bat at the deadline for next year.

[BigPapi]

What's with this damn offense?

When papi doesn't hit a 3 run hr, they lose.

[BigPapi]

Only 6 loses away from last years total once we lose tonight.

[Station 13]

When papi doesn't hit a 3 run hr, they lose.

Our clean up hitter Napoli might not even drive in 50 this season.

[BigPapi]

Our clean up hitter Napoli might not even drive in 50 this season.

That is unbelievably sad. Thats not even funny.

[BigPapi]

Nice job bogey

[Station 13]

That is unbelievably sad. Thats not even funny.

When was the last time a Sox clean up hitter not drive in over 50 in the live ball era? Never?

[a700hitter]

Automatic Out, Jr Ohfer 4 tonight with another 2 k's. This is him having turned a corner? Seriously?

[BigPapi]

Lester is not starting tommorow.

He was starting to heat up this month but now hes back to his normal shit.

[Station 13]

Lester is not starting tommorow.

Said who?

[BigPapi]

John farrell

John farrell

You that close?

[BigPapi]

You that close?

Hahahaha he said on the nesn postgame interview

I warned people here that Delarosa was not what they thought he was cracked up to be and now we're seeing it, aren't we? Actually he has pitched better than I thought he would even if the last few outings have been totally shitty. IMHO we have two solid pitching prospects down on the farm, Renaudo and Owens. They are our hopes for a solid one-two punch. Ruby Doobie is a fourth starter at best, Workman fifth or bullpen and Barnes and Webster excess toilet paper.

Ted, you played enough baseball and know enough about the game to know that Bradley will never be a ML hitter. Not is any sense of the word. He has no power, can't steal bases, and he strikes out an inordinate amount of the time he sets his sorry ass up to the plate. Those people here who believe everything the FO tells them, and thank God, those numbers are decreasing by the day, have set themselves for a big and total letdown. And just hope Bogaerts doesn't turn out to be the total choker I hinted at back in April. As good as Drew has played at short, no team is going to trade for him and to keep him around is only going to inhibit our younger players from getting the play and at-bats they need to get themselves ready for our next WS in 2019 or 2020. Drew, Carp, even Gomes, along with the putrid Buchholz, the miserable Doubrant and even a few others need to be jettisoned by tomorrow night, either by trade or release because by now we all know, or should, that Farrell is a muddled individual who cannot make up his mind and we will see a revolving door of lineup and defensive alignments unless these moves are made. Bring WMB up, put Holt in left and go with that......and if we can a CF who can hit please get that fucking Bradley out of there until the eighth or ninth inning when we can use a good defensive OF for an inning or two.

Does anyone know why the sox haven't called up ranaudo yet? He has been the sox best minor league pitcher this season and has been pretty dominant in triple a. His not super young either as he is almost 25. I would have liked to see him start tomorrow over brando.
