On another note, I see the lead singer of KoRn is also a member of the Yankees.

Whitlock now in line for the loss. Didn't need to be in the game when he was.

Opposite day in the bullpen, obviously...that's why Cora went for Robles

The first half of the year looked a lot like a team believing in one another, and they kept being able to get examples of a guy doing well. The flaw with this leaning on one another business is that when they start faltering they all falter. This has been going on since early July now. One guy in the bullpen screws up, the next guy seemingly lacks the ability to keep their own act together, and screws up as well. The bullpen looks like a psychological mess out there. Our implosions haven't been one offs, they're 3-5 guys wide everytime. Our slumps aren't one guy, they're nearly teamwide.
Similarly, as someone pointed out above, our lack of place discipline against Montgomery today was absolutely mindblowing. HE threw so much crap outside the zone, and very little in the zone, and we're swinging all over the place, after a year long mantra of controling the zone.
Cora seems to have lost this team right now unless we're playing AAAA teams. Is this 2019?

I bet the Red Sox have a record of 2-14 this year for 1 pm games.

I bet the Red Sox have a record of 2-14 this year for 1 pm games. Eric Van could this be a result of Varitek on the coaching stuff?

I am very ready for Robles to be the next one to be tossed off the roster - maybe when Brasier is ready. Andriese was cut today.

Good job by Robles there!
Extremely annoying inning 3 walk and a pop up hit

Well, Robles gave them a fighting chance which is the most we could have asked of him

Obviously the walks are brutal but Yankees are 5/12 on balls hit under 95 mph. Sox 1/7.

do we blame cora overmanaging on this one or the bullpen's inability to hold it down Why not both?

Cora is nuts to pull Houck. He had pretty well mastered the top of the order. OK, if Houck stumbles, then take him out. But this rabid adherence to staying away from a third time thru the order when the starter is in control shows a lack of faith. A more confident manager does not pull pitchers after four good innings.
It does not matter whether Whitlock pitched well or not.
