It is frustrating to have a rookie give you a strong performance and then have vets mess the bed.

I just checked and the last time Diekman got through an inning without a walk or HBP was August 18 of last year

Diekman is up to 26 walks in 32 innings. That’s unprofessional and just cut him yesterday

The good news here we won’t see Diekman for a few days with all those pitches

He has a good arm but his mechanics are off. Just can’t trust him in a close game. 2walks when you are only pitching 1 inning is not good.

Four hits in 7 innings wont get it done.

Was thinking Hernandez would eventually replace him as a left in the pen.

McClanahan was 31 pick in 2018 draft and we took Groome with number 12--their guy will start the all-star game and our guy cannot get to aaa,The good news is he can sign with the SOX after 2 tommy johns if he takes a minor league contract

Diekman 1.53 WHIP wont get it done either. Average more than 1.25 runners per inning and bad stuff usually happens.

Fact check: False, but directionally accurate. Two out of four Pinocchios.

Our pitching staff is actually fine, weâre getting a ridiculous number of pitchers back, so they shouldnât fade in the second half (im only worried about Pivettaâs workload). Our offense is another story, maybe Kiké gets his act together like he did last year, but heâs not close. We really need a corner bat however we can get it

I mean I just posted about getting rid of him right before you posted. But there's no need to exaggerate because it invalidates a valid point.

And *that* is why JBJ plays. Leading off the ninth down by 3? *Not* why JBJ is playing.

Maybe the Sox are sellers again.

Maybe the Sox are sellers again. Definitely. But the answer might change for every individual game result until the trade deadline.

Walls is killing us. Was not expecting to win today. Was hoping to win the 1 st or 2nd game of this series. Tampa is very aggressive on the bases.

In fact, many people here were elated he dropped. His problem is he’s on the “other” side of the Tommy John equation where not only didn’t his velo jump, his plus curveball went away. Either way, it’s like a bunch of teams’ fans saying “we picked over Mookie Betts!” No one knew McClanahan would be this or he would’ve been 1-1. Now, if you said Kolbrin Vitek,Jason Place or Bryce Bentz, you may’ve had an argument…
