Don't know why Schnieder was so hot. Kopech missed with his location, that pitch was a strike.

Fucking insane that this team scores 9 runs and still might have to use both "closers"

Holy shit! A 1-2-3 inning by a Sox reliever!

Kimbrel gets the 9th and a 3 run lead.

6 pitch save. Nice.

Bullpen redeem themselves a little retiring 10 of the final 11 batters of the game. Pretty good job to get the split in the series today.

Sox ended their stretch of 14 games against top teams 7-7 despite missing Rodon until today and TA and Luis for much of it. Oh and Yas is back tomorrow.

Time to roll

Kimbrel should be the closer. He’s a headcase. Struggles in setup.

this is what happens when Kimbrel is allowed to be the stopper.

Teams gotta stop trading for a stopper when they already got one. This is a dumb thing that started about 10 years ago. And in almost every case, it doesn't work. First one that comes to mind is Britton goin' to the Yankees. He's basically been a 3rd wheel and he's sucked.

It used to be teams would trade for actual RELIEVERS, like setup men, left-handed guys, to add to their bullpen. They NEVER traded for a stopper when they already had one.

Teams gotta go back to that. There are plenty of relievers and setup men that would be more valuable than adding another stopper. You convert him to a setup man and usually they just end up sucking. Kimbrel is another prime example. And in a lot of cases, pretty much ends their career, as it's hard to then sign with another team and regain their form.

yea. But they need to start winnin' series against good teams.

Also, the Germinator needs to be on the roster. Sad that they treated him like garbage after he was great earlier in the year.

The Royals are 18-15 against teams over .500. How do you think they will do in the playoffs?

Grandal back. Collins to Charlotte.
