EXTRA EXTRA READ ALL ABOUT IT
In a shocking development today, found in the heart of New York, New York, the Boston Red Sox have revealed a troubling issue:
They're pitching. Sucks.
When prompted for comments, Manager John Farrell relayed a rambling of incoherent babble for an extensive ten minutes before shutting up. He revealed nothing as far as information goes.
Pitcher David Price was seen weeping in a corner of the lockerroom. We've yet to confirm whether he had harmed himself today or not.
The rest of the team seemed rather apathetic. When asked about their feelings by reporters, they all said something along the lines of "it's early, are you panicking johnny?"
To which Johnny Miller then did say 'yes'
We've yet to hear from the higher ups, but suffice to say we can't imagine they're all too happy about what's happening. Or maybe they are. We can never tell.
One thing's for sure: this team is on one way street to the bottom of the barrel.
Live from New York, New York,
Suicidal Red Fan, reporting for you, the fan.
Back to you NESN.

Sarcasm never does come across as it's intended to, does it? Oh well. Have fun with being mad over a post on a Samoan dog-sweater forum.
>>67430786
Explain why he'll win Cy Young award then?
Just because he started 6-0?
He's eventually gonna get beat, and Kershaw's WHIP will be intact confirmed. When ahead this early, there's no point in stopping him. He's done it 3 times already, plus he's the best pitcher in baseball.
Arrietta is carrying a meme team that will crash and burn in the NLCS at most. No wonder the Mets rotation was too much. Dodgers with Kershaw, Maeda, Kazmir, and Ryu can level you too.

Because he's just a better pitcher.

Marvin Benard. Late 90's/early 00's outfielder. In the first game I saw at AT&T (Pac-Bell then) he hit a walk off home run in extra innings against the Dodgers. It was breddy cool

Quite easily, considering the number 2 is someone barely out of his teens, nobody knows what you're gonna get from Maeda once he gets figured out, Ryu is a big ass question mark, and Kazmir is mediocre.

Is Joe Panik elite?
>>67445196
Yeah, he's one of the best second basemen overall in the game and he's barely played more than a full season
>>67445196
that would have been easier if he didn't do that behind the back shit
>>67432794
Aqua-chan is CUTE
if Nick (kebab) Ahmed could learn to hit .200 he would be an infinitely more valuable player

whens the last time your bullpen gave up 5 runs with 2 outs in an inning btw out of curiosity
>>67447390
I'm a Giants fan. We gave up 13 runs in one inning to the Rockies. At least eight of the runs were charged to the bullpen I think
>>67447489
let me rephrase that then
whens the last time you needed to use 3 relievers in an inning with 2 outs just to fucking escape because the worthless pieces of shit LITERALLY LITERALLY cant stop giving up hits
how many losses are directly attributed to your bullpen? Cecil has 5 by himself alone
>>67447364
Cecil should blow his arm
>>67447684
Only gays drive Chevy
Reddick is 8 for his last 8. PED suspension when?
>blow gays bullpen

They aren't DHs. Schwarber is a catcher/outfielder and Soler is an outfielder
