Probably all mental. The hope is he doesn't go down the Ankiel, Willis route...Horrible.

I don't think it's that bad yet, though.

Or because he's not doctoring the baseball... Totally serious.

Nah...I don't know if I believe that. He can't even come close to locating his fastball. That's more than half his problem right now.

Not a sox fan so just throwing out a theory here:

Doctoring the baseball means you don't have to be as fine with fastball location cause you'll get outs from movement.

Not doctoring the baseball means he has to locate better, but he's scared of throwing the ball in the zone cause he'll get hit hard lol

Just a possible thought, but regardless, it's crazy how he was basically one if the best pitchers in baseball till he got hurt last year.

The only team with a worse slugging percentage in May than the Nats is the Royals

Giancarlo Stanton has more extra base hits in 4 innings than Jayson Werth has in his last 90 ABs.

this is painful

and is "curiouser" a word? guess so, didn't get the red squiggly line under it when i typed it

 

[651akathepaul]

Red Sox have lost 10 straight? wow just saw that.

damn.

'Bout to be 11.

 

[DeadsetAce]

you're up five runs..get the **** back in the dugout freddie

 

[651akathepaul]

If Pedroia strikes out looking, he's getting thrown out.

Edit: Damn.

 

[DeadsetAce]

signs of life

was just about ready to post the Seinfield I'm Out gif

 

[DeadsetAce]

ORTIZZZZZZZZ

 

[651akathepaul]

Welp.

Red Sox favorites to win the pennant again.

And Atlanta needs to get a clue.

 

[DeadsetAce]

these memorial day hats are hideous 

 

[651akathepaul]

I don't like either. Put an American flag patch on the hat and sleeve and call it good.

 

[SneakerProSr.]

Them Rangers though

Damn straight.

Meanwhile, across the bay, the scrubs continuing to have the giants number in that park

 

[bronconation24]

Lol Red Sox are more happy they won 'a' game, than they did when they won the World Series

 

[Johnny_Cakes]

Pedroia should worry more about managing that last bit of hair on top of his head than to throw a hissy fit in the dugout.

It's because it's the reg season

Yup. They were crushing Detroit in Detroit last August but it didn't mean diddly in the playoffs.

You guys will be fine. The west is yours

Forreal, forced the Nats to wear those instead of their Patriotic blues.

 

[madj55]

Braves fans should be embarrassed about the turnout at Turner Field today. Even the '09 Nationals had more home town supporters in the crowd when the Sox came to town than Atlanta did today.

 

[mr marcus]

Giancarlo Stanton absolutely just destroyed a baseball. Nats offense is pathetic.

It's so sad cause the pitching has been pretty good so far
