GAME #84, SUNDAY, JUNE 30, 2019, NEW YORK YANKEES @ BOSTON RED SOX (LONDON)

[longgame]

Barnes showed how effective a reliever he is.  Now 7 to 4.   My wife's solution put in Nunez to pitch as he is probably a better pitcher than 2nd baseman.

She may be on to something there.

[longgame]

Another reliever come in and walks the 1st batter.

That’s typically the least damaging outcome for our pitchers.

[Murph]

Pile it in Yanks. Make it easy for the FO not to be stupid and waste trades. SELL SELL SELL.

[markj]

WTF was that?

[elktonnick]

Those  leadoff walks are a direct product of the Sox's screwed up approach towards pitching.  They get 2 strikes on batters then nibble, get to 3-2 and then the batters knows what is coming and the roof caves in.

I wouldn't sell. I'd fire the manager and pitching coach. 

[elktonnick]

Question is which manager has done the worst job for his team.  In the AL clearly it is no contest.

[SeaBeachFred]

Nunez misplays another one at second base.  Once again one questions Nunez's defense.

NUNEZ is SLOWLY killing us, can't move, no matter what POSITION...… Outside of  D H, it is time for him to go...… NOW GRASSHOPPER !! iono iono rofl rofl rofl

Hey Cora, you stupid son  of a bitch, Holt has to be in there no matter who is pitching.  NUnez is a defensive disaster, but, then again, so is Barnes, Walden, Taylor ,Schwaryn and that whole shit faced bullpen.

[Murph]

Beautiful

[elktonnick]

That 9 run explosion has left this team totally demoralized.  While they won't finish last because the Os are so bad they will probably be all but mathematically eliminated from the wild card before the end of August.  Barnes has lost whatever confidence he has had.

Holt hurt his hammy yesterday.

Chavis blows another one.

Could Dana LaVangie, the pitching coach, be a culprit in this debacle of a season.  We have seen our pitchers constantly get ahead of batters, the n nibble, nibble, nibble and either walk their man or get hammered because the bat ters know what's coming.  From top to bottom this team of ours sucks like a rotten egg.     I really think that if this continues intos next season Cora could and should lose his job.  His malfeasance from a cracker jack skipper to a jack off incompetent just boggles my mind.  How could a man go from one extreme to another in less than a year?  Time to maybe back up the truck.

[Murph]

The team is embarrassing.

Not only Cora, but does JH trust Dombrowski to do a reset with this team, given the lack of attention last off season?  A Lucchino moment may be in order.  A lot of folks think it is decision time in 2-3 weeks to fish or cut bait with the trade deadline.  DD just might stub his toe again.
