If Foster allows the homer, at least it was your best reliever against lefties. This is the second game this year we let a player who will be off the roster in 24 hours dictate the outcome. This!!!

But then why use Foster in an 8-5 game instead of Ruiz. One mistake yesterday led to a bigger one today. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jack Parkman Posted September 23, 2020 Share Posted September 23, 2020 (edited) I maintain that Moncada should have been sent home 4 weeks ago and told to prepare for 2021. I completely disagree with how the Sox are handling him. He's 1a or 1b in terms of most important players to this window with Robert.

Even if they went away from Foster, I'd go Cordero long before Ruiz. All of Ruiz's stuff is straight. Cordero at least has good movement. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BigHurt3515 Posted September 23, 2020 Share Posted September 23, 2020 I really think Robert might be the worst CF at the wall I have seen. That ball should have been caught Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dick Allen Posted September 23, 2020 Share Posted September 23, 2020 That last AB when Stone was talking about Lindor not being at 3rd could let Ruiz bury a slider, I was almost hoping he would because that would have opened up 1st, and then certainly the bat would have been taken out of Ramirez’s hands. Ronert should have caught that ball. Tough loss. Get the bad stretch out of your system for the playoffs. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wegner Posted September 23, 2020 Share Posted September 23, 2020 Holy smokes, did not see any of the game, checked the score said Crap, looked into it further...score 2 in top of 10th, give up 4 in bottom...holy crap...that must've been tough to watch.

Foster was struggling but this was his third time pitching in 4 nights and he was already at 20 pitches. The other time Foster pitched 3 times in 4 nights this year he gave up 2 ER in his 3rd outing. He did the same tonight. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JUSTgottaBELIEVE Posted September 23, 2020 Share Posted September 23, 2020 Hopefully the Tigers can steal one in Minny. If they do, the Sox still control their own destiny heading into the weekend Cubs series even if they get swept in Cleveland. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
