$33 million and 4 prospects well spent. Season over. Fire DDO!

Welcome to the AL, Craig. Where we mortgage futures for relievers.

This team could be pretty good but what they are really missing is an ACE and an ELITE CLOSER so probably won't quite make the playoffs.

The Caleb Joseph walk in that inning was about as disgraceful and cowardly as I've ever seen a reliever approach a hitter.

Just watch. Hanley with a grand slam to win it. Best team ever! I see at least 110 wins this year.

in what was supposed to be the coronation of the off-season, today has been about as bad it can be for Price and Kimbrel

Ross threw 24 pitches yesterday and is presumably available for just an inning. Yesterday was Wright's start so obviously they didn't need much from the pen there. You're thinking of the day before. Anyway, that point seems likely to be moot. Indeed. Sox starters' ERA: 1.35 Wright 5.73 Price 6.00 Porcello 11.25 Buchholz 21.00 Kelly And while I typed that, X and Ortiz now represent the tying and winning runs.

That makes me feel better. This isn't the joke NL anymore. You can't get away with that against these AL East teams.

Too soon to get rid of Farrell, or are we gonna wait till he ruins the season?

Tough loss. But this team is feisty. Farrell though I could do without. Lovullo time is nearly upon us.

I hate Farrell a much as the next person. But Farrell didn't walk Caleb Friggin Joseph.

It may be too early to stress over batting averages and pitching performances, but it's never too early to realize when managerial decisions contribute to losses. Farrell has to be on a short leash, as losses matter no less in the first week of the season than in the midst of a playoff run. There needs to be a sense of urgency present this season that was lacking last season.
