    I'm so tired of being down early in this series. JV looking about as sharp as I expected, lol.

    He's approaching every AB likes he's never played baseball before. Just swinging at everything hoping he gets lucky and hits it on the screws. Surely that can't be what they're coaching him to do.

    This would be a good time for Pena to do something positive w RISP which has not been his forte.

    Should've been a walk right there. Instead it's a strikeout.

    Chas had a turning point the other night. Then, he had another turning point. He can't hit anything because he's always turning.

    Got to be better Pena. Red Sox announcers said limiting Yordan to a walk and pitching around Diaz with 2 outs to get to Pena is a win. This was before he even stepped to the plate.

    Ya he's actually good w RISP, bad w RISP and 2 outs.

    Simply put, this isn't a very good pitcher on the mound for Boston, we need to eventually string together some hits. JV is looking much better, no reason to be down.

    You don't trade a stock that's tanking... you dump it
