AJ laying into the Sox for not bringing Kopech in after Gio in game 2

Maybe the long inning will affect Garcia... Grasping at straws here man.

We need these pitchers to step up and all of them laid an egg man. A lot of other things went wrong in this series, including LaRussa, but the starters are why we're looking at a sweep.

It's still early, but man they are getting embarassed.

This is the only weak link in their lineup. Must be nice.

Cease turning into a fastball slider only pitcher. Mix in the curve and change, man. Jeez.

Walks, man. Every one of them scores.

This is Boston Cease

Tale of the series, man. Sox score and then walk the damn world.

Cease can't throw the slider for a strike

The walks with 2 strikes man. Unreal.

Don't like the offspeed there at all.

LOL that was an easy strike. Christ.

Keep the walks down and you keep them from scoring.

Yoan hit that ball over 100 mph easy. Any elevation and its gone.

Playing these guys feels so much like the Twins in the early 2000s. Great defense.

Fight now Yoan. Drive that count up

And then a single! 1-0!

Terrible swing by Eloy.

Good inning. Now make them pay Eloy.

Foul man. God damn it.

Abreu way under that. Damn. Got in on him a little I guess. Looks like the plan is opposite field.

Great at bat by Robert. Hope we can find some gaps finally today.

They absolutely should get Semien, Story, Baez or Chris Taylor (depending on who they can convince to play 2B). My concern is they'll be "too expensive" for the Sox and they'll end up with a second tier option who won't perform and we'll be in the same spot we are now.

Kimbrel for Ohtani. Who says no?
