Farrell should have pulled Lackey 1 batter sooner.

Breslow f**ked up, yes, but I’ll give him a mulligan, because he’s been lights out up ‘til tonight.

No sweep.

Definitely not feelin’ the vibe after that! Sawree.
Just call ‘em as I see ‘em.

Mostly I personally never give up the ship, but having been a lifetime BoSox fan..
I dunno.

Breslow has only been lights out lately, but definitely hasn’t been all season long. Oh crap, Brandon Workman??

He’s been pretty good.

Workman’s gonna be a stud.

Going forward:

I want Ross catching the rest of the games; I feel a different, more secure presence with him behind the plate.

Time to swap Gomes with Nava.

BUNTS!!!

More steal attempts. Even if you get thrown out, it’s USUALLY better than GIDP. Get into their pitchers heads.

As soon as a pitcher throws more than 4 balls in a row, get the hook out. Lackey was good, but he was starting to falter.

Drew offers very good defense, but he’s an automatic out; go with my suggestion of Middlebrooks at 3rd, Bogaerts at SS. Those two have the POTENTIAL to hit; Drew can’t buy a hit or a walk.

Koji not quite as crisp tonight, but he gets the job done. I suppose we’re going to see the Cards closer Rosenthal now... He’s supposedly “unhittable”.
