Forty-two games left, and Redsocks starting to sweat
They need a big winning streak. Next week, three against Cleveland, then tomato cans through August. In September, it's the Twins, Yankees, Jays, Giants, Phillies, Rangers and Rays... finishing with what's left of Balto.
Minnesota is going to fade, bad, which is one team out of their way. Oakland and Tampa Bay are plucky, but only have so much, and Cleveland can't stay THIS hot.
The Sox still have an excellent chance to get in the Wild Card Play-In, and I wouldn't even totally rule them out of the division race, considering our pitching.
Well, here's a potential break. Toronto pulls this Paul Adam guy just after he's worked his way into a terrific groove, blowing away two straight hitters with high cheese.
Why would you NOT at least leave him out there to get the final out in the 8th? Hell, I'd let him pitch the 9th, too. Bad managing on a Ma Boone level, but I'll take it.
I really want the world to know about this great man who brought back happiness into my life again after my husband left me and the kids 3 years ago for another women online when i contacted Dr Believe he cast a love spell for me within 48 hours my ex husband start calling me and begging for forgiveness for everything that have happened between us. I was so happy to have my family back together with love again here is the email of Dr Believe via believelovespelltemple@gmail.com a man with the great powers you can also call him or add him on Whats-app: +2348156148821 God bless you I am very grateful for your help in my marriage.

Dead in the water.
ReplyDeleteTrue or not, it feels good to say it.
Ottavino obviously struggling. Mistake to leave him in to face Son of Vlad.
ReplyDeleteAnd...there goes the lead. And yet, Ottavino remains. Great, because it's always better to be down 2-3 runs late in the game, then just 1.
ReplyDeleteWalk, single, triple. Great work.

No such luck. Blue Jays brought in a guy with a 5.10 ERA. He gave up a hit, but struck out Maybin.
ReplyDelete6 hits, 8 strikeouts. We're back to this. Sigh.
And he finished off the ninth in about three pitches.
ReplyDeleteYep, the all-time, super great bullpen blew another one.
This is the central trouble. Whenever the hitting takes a day off, NO ONE, either on the starting staff OR the pen can be counted on to stand up.
All the pen needed to do was give us three scoreless today. No could do. No could ever do.
