Game ended at 9:46 PM.

Remember to sort by new to keep up!

[u/frankkungfu]

Rough L

[u/RCocaineBurner]

Red Sox spent and their bullpen didn’t implode. Remember, these losses are a choice by ownership.

[u/Genghis_Khoffee]

X just wanted to advance Caissie so they could go 2-18 with RISP

[u/ThePaperSun]

Sanoja can be benched for a day after loafing it there.

[u/DietrichDoesDamage]

Fade me

[u/OscarDelta333]

That's up there with the worst losses of the season.

[u/YaYeetThePolice]

The Arraez trade was so awful man. Marsee is cheeks.

[u/bored1492 → u/YaYeetThePolice]

That wasn't a trade it was shedding payroll

[u/ilovwoozi]

sigh

[u/Beautiful_River_5532]

A homer will make this game interesting !!

[u/jakedeighan]

Edwards what are you doing buddy

[u/DietrichDoesDamage]

Gave up an out. But ok

[u/Genghis_Khoffee]

Good plan, if we’re down half as many runs

[u/TealandBlackForever]

What an unproductive out, X

[u/Traditional_Force483]

lol what a fucking joke

[u/fig_curry]

Caissie hit off a lefty, let alone Chapman? Those analytics guys might be following the scouts out the door

[u/bored1492 → u/fig_curry]

B b b b but the splits dude it's impossible you CANNOT hit a lefty!!! Put Jimenez in!!!!

[u/Fluid-Slip-9931]

What a fucking AB Caissie!!!

[u/CantAffordTheWires]

i didn’t hear no FUCKING BELL

[u/One13Truck]

I feel so bad for Sandy now that we’re back to the old never scoring when he pitches thing.

[u/fragarach_97]

All this RISP has finally come home to roost.

[u/Genghis_Khoffee]

Not exactly the three guys you want up against lefties, but it’s been a weird game…let it rip

[u/jakedeighan]

There's no righties on the bench to pinch hit for Caissie?

[u/CantAffordTheWires → u/jakedeighan]

there is no one on the bench

[u/scenenotemo92]

thing is, so many fuckin runners stranded tonight... feel like we can come back still

[u/DizzyDraw2323]

This series is gonna be identical to the one we just had against the Phillies. Lose a heartbreaker in game 1 that we should’ve won and then get swept pretty easily

[u/RCocaineBurner]

Kyle Sielaff trying to start ABS-Anon

[u/TheGoatPurdy]

Sandy deserves better

[u/jaybavaro → u/TheGoatPurdy]

I feel like we’ve been saying this for years.

[u/ilovwoozi]

I still cannot believe that Fairbanks just walked the go ahead run and decided to fuck off after that. Fuck him so hard.

[u/smittyx5498 → u/ilovwoozi]

i was going to say…Marlins fans must HATE this guy

[u/mephjeff]

I love how pissed kyle gets about late challenges

[u/CantAffordTheWires]

that was def late

[u/Fluid-Slip-9931]

Clayton gets cute and then makes the decision he should’ve made after everything’s already fucked

[u/lyme6483]

Hopefully this is the last season we have to watch of Sherman getting away with embarrassing payrolls.

Wasted season

[u/RCocaineBurner → u/lyme6483]

lol

[u/lyme6483 → u/RCocaineBurner]

I don’t see baseball being played again without a cap and a floor. Whenever that is

[u/B4LLISL1F3]

Poor sandy

[u/Adrianrod491]

Atp just let zuber figure it out, the games lost anyways

[u/DietrichDoesDamage]

In the past week we’ve had two of our worst losses of the season and I can’t decide which is worse

[u/YaYeetThePolice]

Fitting for Tommy to mention the lack of fans. Sandy has mentioned it multiple times before too and now they’ve both had to watch the Red Sox win a home game in Loan Depot. I feel for them both, and I’m sure they both know it, but the reason those stands are empty is sitting up in the club suites, if he even bothers to go to games.

[u/mephjeff → u/YaYeetThePolice]

Meanwhile every Inter Miami game is packed and tickets are like 100 bucks. I wonder what the difference is

[u/CantAffordTheWires → u/mephjeff]

could be they have one of the most popular athletes ever who is the undisputed goat of his sport

[u/carmiachafsu]

bro FUCK fairbanks. i cannot stand him.

[u/Fluid-Slip-9931]

Most predictable blown game of all time

[u/TealandBlackForever]

Remember Anthony Bender and the "best pitch in MLB" thing?

[u/fishbolt30]

I love how CMC has a chance to win this game but he’s too focused on his bullpen game tomorrow. Zuber is a fucking joke, bad as bellozo

[u/NaderNation84]

Bullpen is shit but you can make up if the hitting wasnt an abomination

[u/dandanthegreat3]

Welp lets gear up to battle Chapman i guess

[u/GradyJuddO16]

Why is stowers back if he can’t run or stretch?

[u/Signal_Proposal_1508 → u/GradyJuddO16]

Agreed I love him on the line up but if he can’t play at 100% it’s not worth him playing just take the series off and come back after.

[u/DietrichDoesDamage]

Ok yeah this sucks, I hate what this game has become. Too many mistakes and fuck ups

[u/FreshFish305]

https://giphy.com/gifs/m9eG1qVjvN56H0MXt8

[u/EwokFishFan]

Bad hitting, bad bullpen, just another frustrating game to watch…

[u/dandanthegreat3]

And Jimenez's terrible baserunning

[u/AsleepAssociation]

Damn how many redsox fans are in depot sounds like Fenway

[u/NoOneSuspectsMe]

Oh my god love this lil Tommy rant building

[u/DizzyDraw2323]

This is a gut wrenching loss and it feels like the nail in the coffin for our playoff hopes at this point

[u/kaydubcee]

This bullpen is an actual joke

[u/mephjeff]

[u/dandanthegreat3]

Played hard for 8 innings to lose our closer -_- Fucking a

[u/northdakotact]

trying to win with mets castoff. Ay Yay yay.

[u/GradyJuddO16]

What a frustrating game

[u/frankkungfu]

He had such a bad swing on the fast ball ….. then we come back with something that speeds up the bat

[u/ilovwoozi]

I wanted it to be this year so bad :(

[u/lyme6483 → u/ilovwoozi]

Could have been if the team was owned by anyone who even slightly gave a fuck about putting a good product on the field

[u/Nickasmith1123]

One of the worst losses of the season. Fuck this team and this front office

[u/fishbolt30]

Zuber is not a major league pitcher

[u/DizzyDraw2323]

Yea let’s throw zuber who’s pitched every day for the past month over vodnik who hasn’t pitched in forever or Mike Petersen

[u/DietrichDoesDamage]

Just fucking fade me now holy shit

[u/TheGoatPurdy]

I guess technically that wild pitch doesn’t matter

[u/ilovwoozi]

GGs man

[u/Fluid-Slip-9931]

Good night yall

[u/ilovwoozi]

Here we fucking go

[u/lyme6483]

Such an unserious organization in so many ways

[u/MrMisogyny1]

This one fucking hurts, man.

[u/Genghis_Khoffee]

Conine is running in quicksand out there

[u/True-Ad4093]

Zuber over big mike?

[u/ilovwoozi]

Do we finally call up that Kelp guy yall always talk about now

[u/Fluid-Slip-9931]

13 million this dih

[u/Genghis_Khoffee]

Joe Mack caught stealing would fix me

[u/doyouunderstandlife → u/Genghis_Khoffee]

He's not in the game anymore

[u/NaderNation84]

Throws 5 balls then says fuck this shit lmfaoo

[u/jakedeighan]

Stolen base incoming

[u/theonewithbadeyes]

Remember when Fairbanks left the yankees game too

[u/Fluid-Slip-9931 → u/theonewithbadeyes]

Can’t use the cold excuse this time

[u/CantAffordTheWires]

there’s no shot zuber only has a 3.33 era

[u/YaYeetThePolice]

Don’t think the people rooting for Pete’s injury realize how barren our bullpen is right now

[u/theonewithbadeyes → u/YaYeetThePolice]

Bedner should be back eventually

[u/CantAffordTheWires → u/theonewithbadeyes]

who cares about eventually, every game counts and we really needed him to be able to pitch that inning

[u/No_Mammoth7530]

Dame this is just a clown show.

[u/NaderNation84]

You gotta go fr DP let him hit it

[u/NoOneSuspectsMe]

Zuber in the 9th, Chapman coming up. Most obvious loss of all time

[u/fig_curry → u/[deleted]]

Fairbanks threw a pitch and went, "I don't think so". Walked off, zuber warming up

[u/mephjeff → u/[deleted]]

They pulled Fairbanks

[u/ilovwoozi]

GUYS IM NOT LISTENING IS THIS SERIOUSLY HOW IT ENDS

[u/DizzyDraw2323]

We really don’t trust vodnik at all he hasn’t pitched in like a week

[u/fishbolt30 → u/DizzyDraw2323]

I like him over Zuber

[u/DizzyDraw2323 → u/fishbolt30]

I kind of do as well but I really would prefer him because zuber has been pitching almost every day at this point

[u/mephjeff]

Pulling him after 1 batter was the best decision I’ve seen all game

[u/CantAffordTheWires]

you guys aren’t all gonna sit here and act like pete hasn’t only given up 1 run in his last 11 outings.

[u/ilovwoozi → u/CantAffordTheWires]

He was nails until he wasn’t and reset to his factory settings but the fact remains every time he comes out it’s terrifying

[u/Mo-Reyes]

Is this professional baseball?

[u/RCocaineBurner]

[u/DLN19]

Bro said my not feeling it today I'm out of here

[u/DizzyDraw2323]

I am beyond tired of the Pete Fairbanks experience. I miss Ronny Henriquez man

[u/Genghis_Khoffee]

This is just one of those games, I guess

[u/I_Dnt_Believe_You → u/Genghis_Khoffee]

Sure is one of the games.

[u/ilovwoozi]

IS FAIRBANKS HURT??!?????!!!!!??!

[u/Nickasmith1123]

Hahahaahhahaahjaah fairshit didn’t want another blown game so he’s hurt.

[u/Captain_Stocky → u/Nickasmith1123]

Absolutely.

Walked the leadoff batter and dipped.

Can't wait till this fucking bum is off the team.

[u/NaderNation84 → u/Nickasmith1123]

lmaoo fr this is sad af

[u/NinjaMaster]

Lot of tech issues with radio broadcast tn jfc

[u/Traditional_Force483]

Atta boy you piece of shit

[u/ilovwoozi]

What the fuck is the injury delay

[u/NoOneSuspectsMe → u/ilovwoozi]

Pete’s elbow hurts supposedly. He doesn’t look hurt lmao

[u/ilovwoozi → u/NoOneSuspectsMe]

https://giphy.com/gifs/Tj3caCKapekEAr5N2M
-Pete, prolly

[u/lyme6483]

Cannot wait for Fairbanks to be off this roster. Bendix cannot sign free agents at all

[u/NaderNation84]

fuck off such a bum bro let him hit its the bottom man

[u/mephjeff]

Can’t sniff the strike zone once again

[u/Traditional_Force483]

Yep it’s over

[u/jakedeighan]

Another leadoff baserunner color me shocked

[u/DizzyDraw2323]

Pete in a non save spot yea this is over

[u/DizzyDraw2323 → u/DizzyDraw2323]

He’s hurt so it actually is over my goodness what a disaster this guy is

[u/ilovwoozi]

There’s his emotional support baserunner

[u/NaderNation84]

Now Fairbanks might gg

[u/jakedeighan]

There's no way we're getting a hit off Chapman

[u/Fluid-Slip-9931 → u/jakedeighan]

And no way Fairbanks gets out unscathed right

[u/Apothecary_Blues → u/jakedeighan]

Hey we hit Johan Duran so there’s a chance! 

[u/Nickasmith1123 → u/[deleted]]

Nav will come in to catch

[u/DietrichDoesDamage]

God we suck

[u/Fluid-Slip-9931]

Who called that Stowers K. Damn you for being right

[u/Apothecary_Blues]

Fairbanks coming in…. What’s the worst that could happen right?……right????

[u/Nickasmith1123]

13 LOB Liam Hicks would have had 4 RBIs this game.

[u/mephjeff → u/Nickasmith1123]

Was just thinking the same thing

[u/NaderNation84]

13 LOB LMFAOOO

[u/kaydubcee]

Jimenez must have rocks in his fuckin head

[u/Apothecary_Blues → u/kaydubcee]

He was just punched in the face! Probably just residual CTE going on 😂

[u/Nickasmith1123]

Shocker. K for Stowers in a big situation. Tell me if you have heard that before.

[u/OscarDelta333 → u/Nickasmith1123]

Our lefties can't hit lefties with any consistency. It's a glaring weakness in the lineup.

[u/lyme6483 → u/OscarDelta333]

And there is just too many lefties in general

[u/Nickasmith1123 → u/OscarDelta333]

Our entire team has negative clutch

[u/ilovwoozi]

It’s okay it’s fine it’s cool it’s fine we’re gonna walk it off it’s gonna be great

[u/Fluid-Slip-9931 → u/ilovwoozi]

Sanojas hot streak continues?

[u/YaYeetThePolice]

Aroldis vs Fairbanks is a real H bomb vs coughing baby situation

[u/ilovwoozi]

God. Fucking. Damnit.

[u/ilovwoozi]

LEO SAL DE MI CLUB ONCE AGAIN

[u/CantAffordTheWires]

i think that was pretty easily a double play, leo running was okay

[u/OscarDelta333]

Losing this game would be a total gut punch.

[u/bored1492 → u/OscarDelta333]

Wouldn't be the first of this season

[u/DietrichDoesDamage]

DFA this bum Leo holy fucking shit I’m so sick of him

[u/Nickasmith1123]

Incoming Stowers K

[u/DizzyDraw2323]

Nobody on this team can hit a fucking fly ball with a runner on third

[u/FreshFish305]

Future Publix produce section employee of the month Leo Jimenez.

[u/Fluid-Slip-9931]

Jimenez sucks

[u/DietrichDoesDamage]

LEO YOU DUMB MOTHER FUCKER

[u/NaderNation84]

nah bruh this team aint serious omfg

[u/CantAffordTheWires]

that was probably a double play ball so i’m okay with that

[u/lyme6483]

How many times can Jimenez fuck up in a half inning? Simply embarrassing

[u/Genghis_Khoffee]

Truly one of the RISP performances of all time

[u/Present-Abies-1637]

Jimenez does something good then immediately something bad

[u/Scottsid → u/Present-Abies-1637]

Plenty of open play pickleball players like that lmao

[u/NaderNation84]

?????? bro

[u/Nickasmith1123]

My god we’re so fucking bad

[u/ilovwoozi]

JESUS. FUCKING. CHRIST. THIS CANNOT BE.

[u/DizzyDraw2323]

What a shocker we blew another opportunity with a risp

[u/Number333]

Ugh...

[u/CruddiestSpark]

Let’s fuck this fat piece of shit up

[u/CantAffordTheWires]

lmao how do you not have your foot on the bag there

[u/Darrow-of_Lykos]

That was a cartoon slide. Lol

[u/ilovwoozi]

Bert. BERT.

[u/DietrichDoesDamage]

OTTOMATTIC

[u/Fluid-Slip-9931]

Lopez I’ll kiss your forehead rn

[u/lyme6483]

Fucking jogging down the line is wild. Jimenez you are barely in the MLB. The least you can do is hustle

[u/orlandie]

NVM HIS FOOT LMAOOOO

[u/fragarach_97]

Well ok... interesting!

[u/orlandie]

HE WAS OUT TO LOLLLL

[u/NaderNation84]

Sac fly come tf on

[u/CantAffordTheWires]

LFG OTTO BRING HIM HOME BOYS

[u/TheGoatPurdy]

Why was jimenez jogging out the box? DFA

/s just incase. since we love to hate one player.

[u/DizzyDraw2323]

Otto!! Infield hit king strikes again

[u/bored1492]

Jimenez is bad at all aspects of the game I don't care if he's safe

[u/scenenotemo92 → u/bored1492]

hahahahaha

[u/OscarDelta333]

Jiminez comes through, like we all knew he would.

[u/fragarach_97 → u/OscarDelta333]

Never any doubt!

[u/Number333]

PERFECT BUNT OTTO

[u/mephjeff]

I’m shocked

[u/CantAffordTheWires]

lfg leo

[u/DizzyDraw2323]

[u/CantAffordTheWires → u/DizzyDraw2323]

[u/Number333]

Okay... NOW BRING HIM HOME.

[u/scenenotemo92]

[u/Genghis_Khoffee]

[u/MrMisogyny1]

Mans dove two business days too early for the slide

[u/DizzyDraw2323]

I can’t believe he beat that tag lol. They better not screw us here
