Not good pitching management for sure, and that glowing pitching ERA is taking a hit today.

Shocked that Smith is pitching this terrible.I thought once he was healthy he would be a BP force. I guess I was wrong.

JD had no idea what to do with that fly ball that 15 feet up on the wall.At least he didn`t run into the wall.
Need to keep him at DH.

The biggest knock on JD Martinez's defense is his arm.  We saw two examples of where his poor throwing from the field had negative consequences.

Need to rally in next 2 innings to salvage this game in spite of Cora.

That is how to play the wall.Field the track and turn to see where the ball is. JD went right to the wall and watched the ball hit the wall then turned.

Devers may need to shore up his defense but the Kid sure can hit for a 21-year-old.

Wow, what a time to tune in. Was 7-3 when we got home, went immediately to 7-5, and now it's 8-7. Glad I missed the crappy parts. Kimbrel better save this one.

38 degrees out and Erod with his 1st start with no ST Cora for some unknown reason left him struggle to 92 pitches in only   
3  2/3  innings.

The team that will not give up. 8 in a row! Let’s just pray Bogey’s injury isn’t too serious.
