I guess we're officially going to have a losing streak after tonight.

Man, just might be one of those games, especially when JBJ misses a ball he normally catches.

Question: if you were ready to extend Eovaldi after his first start in Boston, can you say this is just one bad start? I imagine that the team would know a lot that we don't. My guess is that working with Butler instead of Leon could be a factor, but there are probably many things. I'm still fine with signing him after this start, although we have a long way to go before we have to worry about that. One bad start isn't going to make me regret the trade or miss Beeks either. The talk of signing him was understandable because he did so well, but it isn't going to happen until the season ends and there really isn't a reason to discuss until then. Edit: I mean for the Front office.

Bullpen is going to be in rough shape with back to back short outings and a double header tomorrow. What a mess.

that was a hard hit ball and tough play for JBJ that yea, normally he catches but most CF'ers don't get to. Anyway, Eovaldi got ONE swing and miss the entire outing - that's alarming for a guy with his stuff.

Normally, doubleheaders are tough to win both and with Cuevas or assorted bullpen pitchers in the second game, they'll be lucky to come away with a sweep.

I'm definitely 100% happy for Butler getting back up to the majors for another stint, but this is the exact scenario where I really wish Matt Spring was still kicking around to finally get a shot. It sucks he never even got a September call up.

5 chances to get three runs against a bad team. Doable. IF the pen can hold.

When the Sox come back and win, I'm pretty sure nobody is going to say "what a great game".

almost no other outfielders get close to the ball Jackie made an 'error' on.

Don't get why it takes 8 runs to get someone out of the game. I get that they weren't all earned but sometimes you just know when a guy does not have it...

OK NESN. You must show the Orioles on deck circle for every second that they are at bat, but no pitch is thrown. Smokin Hot !!!

Yeah, I can see that but it just sucks to punt on a game that is definitely winable!
