I guess we are counting of not going to the bottom of the ninth.

Once again we fail to score with a man at third and less than two outs. Harrison taking full cuts and striking out. All we needed was contact. Sosa has been really bad. I would prefer Leury back. Don’t believe I wrote that!,,

Abreu has been awful the last few days. No patience with RISP. Take a pitch. This pitcher has been wild.

Finally got a ball up in the air.

No surprise. That’s TLRball.

Head first is not a good idea.

White flag was raised at KC pitching Ruiz, Foster and Lambert in high leverage situation in close games with ReyLo, Graveman and Hendriks grabbing some bench.

Don’t take walks. Very slow team. Does not manufacture runs. Nobody hitting homers. A singles based station to station offense with slow runners does not go anywhere. We are wasting great starting pitching with this awful offense and awful manager and coaching .

We are going to have to hit a homer to win this game.

Should have called a hit and run instead of a straight steal. Abreu took a fastball right down the middle.

At least a hit and run with Mr. DP Abreu at the plate.

Big reason the Sox are out sucking most every other team are the Three Stooges trio of JR, Hahn and TLR. They have been awful, and no changes or adjustments are made. Most every other MLB team would have fired TLR a long time ago.

Let’s start by pinch hitting Sheets for Vaughn next time around.

Wasting back to back gems by Cease and Kopech. If we can’t beat KC and Detroit how do we expect to beat Houston?

Groundball City mode

Left our best relievers grabbing bench while pitching The Rookie Lambert, Ruiz, Foster instead in close games. No urgency. Same old same old the usual no patience, not working the count,not looking for your pitch to hit…

Fair enough. I would take any viable option over TLR.

I would take Hinch over TLR hands down.

TLR is like a cancer metastasizing throughout the team. He is killing the team energy, motivation, performance through his terrible performance and decisions. It is terminal unless the primary tumor is excised soon.

Maybe other owners would not want JR to sell. They prefer his incompetent team in place to assure Sox will not contend.

Hahn would not have a problem getting a job. He has a Harvard Law School degree.

ReyLo, Graveman and Hendriks were supposedly healthy today but no where to be seen, while Ruiz and Foster were sighted in the close game.

Then let’s not bring our mediocre relievers in tight games.

TLR doesn’t have the urgency to keep games close when we are a run behind. He hardly ever uses our top relievers when we are behind. Ruiz and Foster today allowed all 5 runs when we had ReyLo, Graveman and Hendriks grabbing some bullpen bench.

TLR is the MVP for both the Guardians and the Twins.
