Can we have Salty on all of the days that Eck can't go? He's far and away the best of this former Red Sox tour that they've been doing this year.

Player development has to be called into question with the performances of Xander and Mookie this season. Toss in Eduardo, too. I'm surprised you didn't mention that 2 days ago when Mookie had 2 HR and a triple. Vazquez, Devers and Benintendi suck too right? Never said any of these guys suck, sweet pea. They just haven't improved as expected. I love what I see from Devers, but ever heard of sample size?

The team develops all the players, not just the ones you're singling out during a frustrating game.

Yay for September baseball. At least Cash can use his entire roster, unlike Farrell.

One of the biggest at bats of the year so far, on the hands of Sam Travis.

Do we really need a new pitcher every time the Sox put a runner on base?

So can Travis get a hit off a RHP? No. It's Mr. Lin.

I feel like Farrell Jedi Mind Tricks himself into shooting himself in the foot. I wouldn't trust him in a chess match.

That's what happens when a player gets 0 at bats for weeks at a time.

The Sox have 2 innings until you get to their great closer.

How about you just start the game with Lin at second base?
Also, the demise of Xander into whatever you can even describe him as is genuinely depressing.

At this point, hopefully the Yankees lose then.

The Sox better not choke the division away or I want Farrell fired as soon as it happens.

That's what happens when a player gets 0 at bats for weeks at a time. Lin's had 4 at bats since being called up, and Farrell hunches him into a position like that. Because he bats left handed. I swear that's the only strategy Farrell knows.

For the first time all year, I am legitimately worried about this team. These games have playoff implications, playoff feel...urgency. You can't continue to screw this stuff up. That goes for JF, Sale, X and every player. Time to start getting this done. lol This is what everyone on this board does for every game they don't win by 5 runs or more. No. I post here regularly, and am not prone to hyperbole. You shouldn't lump me in with other folks. If you feel as confident about the the team, great, I am going to be honest about how I feel. This game isn't a good look.

This offense needs to step up and help Sale.

It's pretty bad that the Sox don't have one batter on this bench to pinch hit for Sandy Leon.
You have 3 catchers. Sale is out of the ballgame.
