I'd be okay with a Kelly at a lower AAV if gets Mookie and Sale extended. Starting to wonder if Pomeranz's velocity doesn't come back, if he'll take the qualifying offer if/when offered the QO. He's had 4 or 5 starts now and he should be getting stronger, but the velocity is still down. If he doesn't get a lot better sooner, the question has already been answered. There will be no QO offered. Just look at last offseason.

Let's just hope he doesn't go back to gopher homerun Porcello now. Well that was a terrible jinx.

Rick Porcello and his inability to throw a shutdown inning when needed. It's a story as old as time...

Why did NESN get rid of Orsillo? We have OB rambling on about drive-in movies and pay phones.

Nice opposite field shot by Devers!

Benni has to get there. Looked like he was drifting. Benny is a below average CF. You give up a lot on defense not only in LF but CF too when you take Jackie out.

Fans blew the play down the line there.

With one on, no out and the bullpen in the game, I thought Betts through Hanley would have something going. Damn.

The pitching can't shut down the A's after the Sox score.

And we gave another run back. What a pitching disaster this has been

The pitching staff blew it this game. All you have to do is keep the A's in the ballpark and you usually win, they couldn't stop doing this tonight.

Going to need JD and a pinch-hitting Moreland to come up big in the next two innings.

Come on, now. Just need one more run than them at the end, not all the way through.

Not quite as poetic, but it'll certainly work.

OB is tolerable when he's with a color commentator that can actually give insightful baseball knowledge. Gomes is the exact opposite of knowledge.

or 2 blasts - Devers and Moreland back-to-back

Gonna take a semi-wild guess here and say, with the roster jam looming (Thornburg and Pedey), that maybe some team wants to see a bit more of Johnson and Swihart.

Well, Cora’s gotta hit Moreland for Leon here, right? Men on or not, got to try to tie at least with one swing.
