How do you expect Dombrowski to react to this slugging humiliation?

J.D. Martinez mega-contract

lol

Angel Hernandez is bad at baseball

Angel Hernandez showing why he deserves to be a playoff ump.

not a strike

Zoinks, Angel, that was bad

Dave Cameron

About the worst inning possible for Boston

1-2-3, only used ~10 pitches

On Marwin and Gurriel...I don’t think anyone here think they’re stars as much as we wonder why you seem to think they’re worthless black holes in the lineup. Clearly they’re better than that. And on Gurriel...why cite his career numbers when his career besides this year consists of one month where he was fresh out of Cuba and basically admitted to not being in his best form yet? Aren’t y’all usually the first ones to cite SS after a month in April?

Dave Cameron

Saying they are average hitters is not saying they are worthless black holes.

And if you have to throw out data to try and support your point, your point probably isn't very good.

Springer

3:15

wow, he got enough, i guess!

When Altuve kneeled down to give Springer a high five, I legit thought he was a child bat boy

Tommy

bullpen up?

Show Hey O'Tawny

3:18

Should the bullpen be up now?

I hate the Dombrowski Doctrine. Especially when you shorten your window but don't get better than the competition

That’s so clearly not Doug Fister, FS1

3:19

My god that's Doug Fister's music!

Dave Cameron

3:19

I'd have Smith in already

Leaving Pomeranz here to face Altuve is too risky for me.

Jerj Clooners

3:19

Altuve: good.

Conner from AZ

3:20

Altuve is really good at hitting baseballs

Lemmer

Doug Fister put on some weight

Roger

Re: Martinez contract: does he DH for Boston, with HanRam, say, getting released or traded for essentially nothing?

Dave Cameron

3:21

Or moving to 1B

Dombrowski has never cared about defense.

Dan Szymborski

3:21

Gotta duck out for a few, I'll be right back.

3:22

If I'm chatting off-and-on the rest of the day, I need to do a quick beer/soda run.

If double D didn't care about defense then what was the Mitch Moreland signing?

Dave Cameron

"We need a cheap first baseman to stay under the luxury tax."

Dan Szymborski

3:23

And poor offensive evaluation

Dombrowski's one of those guys that has dropped in the rankings due to baseball's advances. He was a top-tier 90s GM.

Dave Cameron

3:24

His primary skill is being able to manage up; he handles owners really well.

So he gets them to spend money, greenlight big moves, etc...

Tommy

3:25

This Red Sox team is painful.

ChatzMcGee

3:25

Smith's delivery might be the funkiest in baseball, it oozes funk.

3:26

Farrell looks like the exasperated grandparent that has to babysit two kids for the afternoon and they've already knocked over two vases and poured a ketchup bottle on the carpet. He's lost control and just wants it to be over

Conner from AZ

3:26

The Red Sox are the worst remaining team in playoffs, right?

Dave Cameron

3:26

They're better than Arizona
