I will not criticize TLR anymore on this game. However, I will recommend that he be given an Ambien before the game tomorrow, to help him nap and not make stupid decisions. Let the bench coach manage the game.

Yes, I have. He is on a losing team. However, he is the favorite. But Tim should be under consideration as well, as he will be in the playoffs contrary to Ohtani.

Didn’t Bummer allow the runs which were facilitated by TLR intentionally walking the bases loaded.? It is not all on Kimble.

We need contact hitters for men on third and less than 2 outs and moving the runner over to 3 rd which we have been failing at.

I meant use of Madrigal in the future. I know he is out for the season.

IsBummer better than Kimbrel? Why then we traded for Kimbrel and gave up Madrigal and Heuer? We could use a contact hitter like Madrigal, which we lack now. We need to give the ball to Kimbrel and not throw him under the bus like TLR did in the 8 th like a Yermin.

Then why theSox traded for him and not for a Joey Gallo which would have contributed more on a daily basis?

I am questioning not only the Bummer move, but also intentionally walking Cruz to load the bases and put the go ahead run in scoring position, like if Cruz is Barry Bonds. How can you justify that?

Kimbrel is better than Bummer. And if Bummer failed to get the first hitter, he had to face two more. You need to show confidence in Kimbrel, not throw him under the bus like a Yermin.

No shit. Glad that TLR manned up and should apologize in person to Kimbrel. TLR was lucky that the Sox came back and won the game. He would have been roasted nationally for those inexplicable 8 th inning moves.

Yes. They don’t have the boppers and any big guys that scare you like the other two.

The FOD game and now this. Can’t beat that. He needs to be in strong consideration for MVP.

Maybe he said we bailed you out. Do a better job next time.

Yes, it was a shame.

He only had 90 pitches thru 7 and was dealing.

No shit. It is better that TLR doesn’t do anything and take a nap during the game, and let one of the coaches manage the game.

Tepera earned his pay. Bailed out TLR and saved my weekend. Sox were mostly great tonight and were able to weather the8 th inning melt down. We look like a better team than the Rays. Crochet, Hendriks and Tepera were lights out.

He is a big guy.

Hope not bringing back Liam in the 11 th does not come back to haunt us. Many TLR decisions tonight have been bad.

Wow.glad that stayed in the park..

Liam only threw 9 pitches in the 10 th. You need to bring him back. We need to lock down this win.

Yes, hitting it to third was not a good location but it worked out. Now I would leave Hendriks in to lock in this win. And bail TLR out of one of his worst managed games of the year.

Was a fly all but too short.

Now we need Robert to move the runner over.

You mean bottom of the 11 th?
