Not pretty, but I'll take it. At least they didn't tie the game. Not optimistic about the bottom part of the next 8 innings tho.

What would be the downside of having Ortiz and Roth take a turn from those two? Could it be any worse?

Nothing permanent, just try something which has "some hope" of being successful.
Yea, because what they're doing right now is not working.

As late as Choo was swinging at pitch I am not sure why he did.

a lot more, but our offense may disappear again after the 1st inning

The shift worked for the Sox that time but are people paying attention to Maz. He has hardly been able to get around on pitches on the inside. He has hitting the ball to left the majority of the time.

Buzz to be honest Nick Martinez is making it tough on Nick Martinez.

Yes. Would like to see Roth get a shot. Definitely errors have not helped. Still hate they passed ball.

My thing is pitching has really hurt us. Starting P. not doing well and pen has had some meltdowns. To me that is the huge difference

We need a pitching shot in the arm


Case and point

Don't blame em for trying. But there was just no way to overturn that call, even it wrong.

Good finish but I feel like we are holding on to a frayed rope. But maybe Nick gets things going. We can hope.
