You pitch your best pitchers when the game is meaningful, tie games or up down by 1. High leverage situations. Tony's cares more about personal stats (wins and saves) than managing to high vs. low leverage situations. Perhaps that's one of the reason the Sox are among the worst teams with 20 blown saves and a 10-14 record in 1 run games. Tony rather use his worst relievers when the team is losing, regardless if they are down 1, 2 or 8, or use his best pitchers in low leverage situations like the 4-0 game against Houston with a DH the following day.

greg775 Posted August 1, 2021 Share Posted August 1, 2021 Too bad Gavin couldn't elevate and tie the game at 12. Oh well, Sox aren't playing particularly good baseball of late. I realize team still is banged up. Classifies as bad loss cause the starter was handed a nice lead. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chw42 Posted August 1, 2021 Share Posted August 1, 2021 Also I find it oddly fitting that Jose Ramirez drove in the winning run today despite not doing much of anything for his first 3 at bats. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dan of Steel Posted August 1, 2021 Share Posted August 1, 2021 This team ought to be ashamed of themselves. Some of the worst baseball I've seen played in a long time. We've played 10 games against subpar teams since the ASB and we are 4-6 in those games. And of course, just as the bats start heating up, it's time for the pitching staff and the defense to take a massive shit on the effort. We are finding ways to look as incompetent as remotely possible in a division that is basically being handed to us on a goddamn silver platter. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

harkness99 Posted August 1, 2021 Share Posted August 1, 2021 do people really think that game was fun? never felt that way about it... maybe if was close the entire time. but not after blowing a 6-1 lead. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Angel Hernandez Posted August 1, 2021 Share Posted August 1, 2021 Kuechel needs to stop serving up homers. Middle relievers need to stop sucking But just win the fucking game tomorrow and I'll get over this one 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Reyes and Ramirez only got 3 hits. It was the bottom 4 in their order that really hurt us. They combined to drive in half their runs and nobody had an OPS above .700 entering today. Hell, their bottom 3 didn't have an OPS above .500 and they drove in 5. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
