1
00:00:06,960 --> 00:00:10,840
Speaker 1: Welcome to Massa Territory, ladies and gentlemen, and here we

2
00:00:10,880 --> 00:00:14,840
Speaker 1: are again with another loss to talk about, one in

3
00:00:15,000 --> 00:00:18,520
Speaker 1: five now on the year. Last three times the Red

4
00:00:18,520 --> 00:00:21,240
Speaker 1: Sox have started off one in five was twenty nineteen,

5
00:00:21,480 --> 00:00:25,360
Speaker 1: twenty twelve, and twenty eleven. Each of those three seasons

6
00:00:25,400 --> 00:00:29,360
Speaker 1: they missed the postseason each time. I mean, there's no

7
00:00:29,400 --> 00:00:31,120
Speaker 1: better way to put it, ladies and gentlemen. They're just

8
00:00:31,160 --> 00:00:33,600
Speaker 1: not looking very good right now. I mean they're looking

9
00:00:33,600 --> 00:00:37,879
Speaker 1: pretty bad. Honestly, you know, you know me, I'm always

10
00:00:38,200 --> 00:00:40,240
Speaker 1: a glass half full kind of a guy. I'm always

11
00:00:40,240 --> 00:00:43,400
Speaker 1: looking for positives. Sure, there were a couple of positives here,

12
00:00:44,479 --> 00:00:47,479
Speaker 1: but in the end you're looking for wins. And overall

13
00:00:47,640 --> 00:00:50,479
Speaker 1: that's not positive. Of course. Like I said, you're just

14
00:00:50,479 --> 00:00:51,879
Speaker 1: not looking very good here. You know, you got a

15
00:00:51,880 --> 00:00:55,880
Speaker 1: negative fifteen run differential on the year. Credit to the Astros.

16
00:00:56,280 --> 00:00:58,800
Speaker 1: I'm gonna put them over here. I'm not gonna sit

17
00:00:58,840 --> 00:01:01,760
Speaker 1: here and say, oh, the Red Sox, they're just so

18
00:01:01,880 --> 00:01:04,399
Speaker 1: terrible and YadA, YadA YadA. Of course, the Red Sox

19
00:01:04,440 --> 00:01:07,119
Speaker 1: have not looked good. But I'm also gonna give credit

20
00:01:07,120 --> 00:01:09,240
Speaker 1: to the Astros as well. They have looked very good.

21
00:01:09,280 --> 00:01:11,880
Speaker 1: Here in the early going, offenses looking good. They look

22
00:01:11,920 --> 00:01:15,360
Speaker 1: like they look like a rejuvenated team. With Carlos Korea there,

23
00:01:15,440 --> 00:01:17,679
Speaker 1: Christian Walker is looking good, you're on An Alvarez is

24
00:01:17,680 --> 00:01:20,640
Speaker 1: looking healthy. So yeah, the Astros, they're looking like the

25
00:01:20,640 --> 00:01:23,119
Speaker 1: old Astros here. But in the end of the Red

26
00:01:23,120 --> 00:01:25,039
Speaker 1: Sox they gotta pay, they gotta play better than this.

27
00:01:26,600 --> 00:01:30,240
Speaker 1: I am expecting to see some overreactions over the next

28
00:01:30,360 --> 00:01:34,520
Speaker 1: couple of days. Uh is overreaction even the way to

29
00:01:34,560 --> 00:01:38,600
Speaker 1: put it. The reason I say overreaction because again, it

30
00:01:38,680 --> 00:01:42,960
Speaker 1: is six games in. But we can keep saying that, right,

31
00:01:43,000 --> 00:01:45,280
Speaker 1: you know it's early. It's early. Oh we're only six

32
00:01:45,319 --> 00:01:47,400
Speaker 1: games in, two series in. There's a whole lot of

33
00:01:47,400 --> 00:01:50,680
Speaker 1: season to play. There comes a point where you can't

34
00:01:50,800 --> 00:01:53,960
Speaker 1: keep saying it's too early, especially, like I said, the

35
00:01:54,000 --> 00:01:56,240
Speaker 1: last three times you start off one in five, you

36
00:01:56,320 --> 00:01:59,720
Speaker 1: missed the postseason every single time. So you gotta get

37
00:01:59,720 --> 00:02:03,000
Speaker 1: this here. You got the off day tomorrow. You're gonna

38
00:02:03,000 --> 00:02:06,000
Speaker 1: be traveling back to Boston freshen up a little bit.

39
00:02:06,160 --> 00:02:08,680
Speaker 1: Hopefully some home cooking can get this team going a

40
00:02:08,680 --> 00:02:12,120
Speaker 1: little bit. They need it, They absolutely need it. They

41
00:02:12,120 --> 00:02:16,239
Speaker 1: got to figure something out. Here, but some let's call

42
00:02:16,280 --> 00:02:19,720
Speaker 1: them reactions over the next day or so. Maybe you

43
00:02:19,760 --> 00:02:22,720
Speaker 1: can call them over reactions because it's early, but whatever.

44
00:02:23,840 --> 00:02:26,240
Speaker 1: I could see a lot of people bringing up the offense,

45
00:02:26,280 --> 00:02:30,119
Speaker 1: of course, and hey, the numbers speak for themselves. Very

46
00:02:30,120 --> 00:02:32,960
Speaker 1: small sample, of course, but they're still having issues with

47
00:02:33,040 --> 00:02:37,600
Speaker 1: runners in scoring position. Twenty seventh in ops coming into today.

48
00:02:38,000 --> 00:02:41,120
Speaker 1: With runners in scoring position. They had a couple of

49
00:02:41,160 --> 00:02:44,040
Speaker 1: moments here today where they continue to struggle with runners

50
00:02:44,040 --> 00:02:48,160
Speaker 1: in scoring position. Have the fifth highest strikeout percentage, lots

51
00:02:48,160 --> 00:02:51,920
Speaker 1: of strikeouts just overall with this offense, fourth highest k

52
00:02:52,000 --> 00:02:56,080
Speaker 1: percentage coming into today. So I'm not gonna be surprised

53
00:02:56,080 --> 00:02:59,360
Speaker 1: if I see some people talking on social media about

54
00:02:59,360 --> 00:03:02,960
Speaker 1: Peter Fatz. See, you know, because we did see this

55
00:03:03,320 --> 00:03:07,120
Speaker 1: last year, right, especially in the early going. You were

56
00:03:07,160 --> 00:03:09,960
Speaker 1: seeing a lot of the strikeouts, you were seeing issues

57
00:03:09,960 --> 00:03:13,400
Speaker 1: with runners in scoring positions. So I'm not going to

58
00:03:13,400 --> 00:03:18,240
Speaker 1: be surprised if you see some question marks being brought

59
00:03:18,320 --> 00:03:21,960
Speaker 1: up about just the offensive approach in general. I could

60
00:03:21,960 --> 00:03:25,040
Speaker 1: see some people even going to the length of saying,

61
00:03:25,600 --> 00:03:28,480
Speaker 1: is Alex Coorr the right guy anymore? I could see

62
00:03:28,520 --> 00:03:31,040
Speaker 1: people saying that is that my opinion I'm also just

63
00:03:31,080 --> 00:03:33,720
Speaker 1: making that clear what I'm bringing up here. They're not

64
00:03:33,800 --> 00:03:36,680
Speaker 1: my opinion, so I'm just expecting to see them over

65
00:03:36,680 --> 00:03:40,080
Speaker 1: the next day or so. You know, I'll be honest,

66
00:03:40,320 --> 00:03:42,800
Speaker 1: I wasn't a big fan of the lineup coming into today.

67
00:03:44,960 --> 00:03:48,560
Speaker 1: You know you got will You're batting fifth. I think

68
00:03:48,680 --> 00:03:51,720
Speaker 1: today Will you should have been batting third. Personally, to me,

69
00:03:51,920 --> 00:03:53,640
Speaker 1: when you got a guy as hot as Will you

70
00:03:53,720 --> 00:03:55,880
Speaker 1: has been to start off the year, you want to

71
00:03:55,920 --> 00:03:58,480
Speaker 1: put that kind of a guy with that power upside

72
00:03:58,520 --> 00:04:02,560
Speaker 1: into the three spot, a run producing spot. Masa, in

73
00:04:02,600 --> 00:04:05,440
Speaker 1: my opinion, is way better suited for the fifth role.

74
00:04:06,200 --> 00:04:08,320
Speaker 1: That's a spot where you look for a guy that

75
00:04:08,360 --> 00:04:11,640
Speaker 1: can do some damage but also grind out abs as well,

76
00:04:11,640 --> 00:04:13,720
Speaker 1: guys that can take a lot of pictures. To me,

77
00:04:13,840 --> 00:04:16,279
Speaker 1: Masa is like the perfect guy for that spot. And

78
00:04:17,080 --> 00:04:19,800
Speaker 1: I know Roman had four strikeouts yesterday. He looked a

79
00:04:19,800 --> 00:04:22,760
Speaker 1: little lost at the plate. This is just my opinion.

80
00:04:22,800 --> 00:04:25,000
Speaker 1: You can disagree with it if you want, but to me,

81
00:04:25,600 --> 00:04:29,839
Speaker 1: your best player, Roman Anthony, with all the upside that

82
00:04:29,880 --> 00:04:32,560
Speaker 1: he's got, with the ceiling that he's got, that guy

83
00:04:32,640 --> 00:04:34,680
Speaker 1: needs to be playing. I understand he had a bad

84
00:04:34,760 --> 00:04:37,960
Speaker 1: day yesterday. You can disagree if you want, but you

85
00:04:38,120 --> 00:04:39,800
Speaker 1: just saw here today he came in and hit a

86
00:04:39,800 --> 00:04:43,680
Speaker 1: home run. I'm playing Roman, especially if you have a

87
00:04:43,760 --> 00:04:47,040
Speaker 1: day off the next day, if there's another game tomorrow,

88
00:04:47,080 --> 00:04:49,800
Speaker 1: if you got a stretch of say, you know, another

89
00:04:49,880 --> 00:04:52,520
Speaker 1: four to five games before your next off day, Okay,

90
00:04:52,520 --> 00:04:54,120
Speaker 1: that's a little different. But if you got the off

91
00:04:54,160 --> 00:04:58,520
Speaker 1: day tomorrow, I'm playing my best guy, right And to me, yes,

92
00:04:58,600 --> 00:05:02,400
Speaker 1: you struck out four times yesterday, But in my opinion, hey,

93
00:05:02,440 --> 00:05:05,080
Speaker 1: this is a good opportunity to learn. Get back in there,

94
00:05:05,279 --> 00:05:08,480
Speaker 1: shrug it off, let's go. You know, that's just whatever

95
00:05:08,600 --> 00:05:12,279
Speaker 1: my opinion, I would have played Roman Anthony here today.

96
00:05:12,279 --> 00:05:15,159
Speaker 1: From the get go. I could see a lot of

97
00:05:15,160 --> 00:05:17,839
Speaker 1: people starting to I mean, I've been seeing this about

98
00:05:17,839 --> 00:05:22,800
Speaker 1: Trevor Story for a long time, but especially after the

99
00:05:22,960 --> 00:05:25,480
Speaker 1: error today from Trevor Story that did not look very

100
00:05:25,520 --> 00:05:29,200
Speaker 1: good that ended up leading to a run. I could

101
00:05:29,200 --> 00:05:31,160
Speaker 1: see people saying, all right, we gotta get story off

102
00:05:31,160 --> 00:05:33,799
Speaker 1: a short, right. I could see that getting a little

103
00:05:33,800 --> 00:05:36,880
Speaker 1: bit louder. Do I think that's gonna happen? Probably not

104
00:05:38,800 --> 00:05:40,880
Speaker 1: in the end, you know, seniority, I think that comes

105
00:05:40,880 --> 00:05:43,520
Speaker 1: into play. I think you would have to see a

106
00:05:43,560 --> 00:05:46,719
Speaker 1: lot more of that from story for Coora to pull

107
00:05:46,760 --> 00:05:49,520
Speaker 1: the trigger on that kind of a decision. But I

108
00:05:49,560 --> 00:05:53,120
Speaker 1: could see that coming up here. But overall, for the

109
00:05:53,160 --> 00:05:55,719
Speaker 1: offense today, we'll get into it. We'll kind of will

110
00:05:55,720 --> 00:05:58,200
Speaker 1: break it down in just a little bit. But you know, hey,

111
00:05:58,560 --> 00:06:01,279
Speaker 1: at least they did get on the board today and

112
00:06:01,440 --> 00:06:04,559
Speaker 1: early too. They got off on the right start, four runs,

113
00:06:04,560 --> 00:06:07,120
Speaker 1: seven hits, but the strikeouts continue to pile up. Twelve

114
00:06:07,200 --> 00:06:12,560
Speaker 1: strikeouts overall on the day. What can you say? And hey,

115
00:06:12,560 --> 00:06:16,080
Speaker 1: you know you were hoping for a good win here today.

116
00:06:16,120 --> 00:06:18,440
Speaker 1: Going back to Fenway, especially with Garrett Crochet on the

117
00:06:18,440 --> 00:06:21,560
Speaker 1: bound right. Obviously we know what Garrett Crochet can do,

118
00:06:22,480 --> 00:06:24,640
Speaker 1: but he continues to have problems in Houston. I mean,

119
00:06:24,680 --> 00:06:26,360
Speaker 1: go back to last year. He had a bad start

120
00:06:26,400 --> 00:06:28,760
Speaker 1: in Houston. He is just not pitched well there in

121
00:06:28,800 --> 00:06:32,160
Speaker 1: his career. Now, thirteen in a third innings pitched eleven

122
00:06:32,200 --> 00:06:35,719
Speaker 1: home eleven. It feels like eleven home runs eleven earned runs.

123
00:06:36,680 --> 00:06:41,920
Speaker 1: Big blow from Carlos Korea today. I don't know, he

124
00:06:42,040 --> 00:06:44,400
Speaker 1: just doesn't pitch well in Houston. I don't know what

125
00:06:44,440 --> 00:06:48,480
Speaker 1: the reason is. He doesn't like it there. We had

126
00:06:48,480 --> 00:06:51,039
Speaker 1: a couple other bit of news here today coming in

127
00:06:51,760 --> 00:06:57,600
Speaker 1: and Carlos Nirvas benched pre game, and we have this

128
00:06:57,640 --> 00:07:01,599
Speaker 1: one from Tim Healy. We got the quote when asked

129
00:07:01,640 --> 00:07:05,960
Speaker 1: about the decision to take Narvas out of the lineup.

130
00:07:06,440 --> 00:07:10,000
Speaker 1: When asked if it was disciplinary, Cora said he wanted

131
00:07:10,000 --> 00:07:13,080
Speaker 1: to keep it between him and Nervas. He went on

132
00:07:13,160 --> 00:07:16,000
Speaker 1: to say, he understands this is something that happens in

133
00:07:16,080 --> 00:07:20,160
Speaker 1: every club or just happens to be early in the season.

134
00:07:20,520 --> 00:07:22,840
Speaker 1: It's the right thing to do. Well. It sounds like

135
00:07:22,960 --> 00:07:28,040
Speaker 1: something happened here. I don't know what that was. I

136
00:07:28,080 --> 00:07:31,600
Speaker 1: don't know if it was if anyone posted anything about

137
00:07:31,640 --> 00:07:35,120
Speaker 1: it anywhere, I don't think so that's something you want

138
00:07:35,160 --> 00:07:38,120
Speaker 1: to keep in house. I honestly don't know what that

139
00:07:38,120 --> 00:07:43,280
Speaker 1: could be. Could it have been, I don't know, did

140
00:07:43,280 --> 00:07:45,280
Speaker 1: he show up late to the game or something. I'm

141
00:07:45,320 --> 00:07:48,720
Speaker 1: not sure what happened there. But obviously something did not

142
00:07:48,800 --> 00:07:51,880
Speaker 1: go over well with Cora, at least that's my opinion.

143
00:07:52,120 --> 00:07:57,880
Speaker 1: I don't know, maybe something I don't know, personal issue,

144
00:07:58,000 --> 00:07:59,800
Speaker 1: or I don't know. I'm not sure. I don't want

145
00:07:59,840 --> 00:08:02,200
Speaker 1: to say it here and speculate about a whole ton

146
00:08:02,200 --> 00:08:04,320
Speaker 1: of things. But either way, wasn't in the lineup today.

147
00:08:06,160 --> 00:08:08,880
Speaker 1: I am going to think that this was a one

148
00:08:08,960 --> 00:08:12,000
Speaker 1: time thing, and you know, probably we don't hear about

149
00:08:12,000 --> 00:08:16,280
Speaker 1: this at all moving forward. Not sure what happened, but

150
00:08:17,120 --> 00:08:21,920
Speaker 1: Nervas was supposed to play today, had the off day yesterday.

151
00:08:22,080 --> 00:08:24,560
Speaker 1: Hopefully we don't see that again. Let's see what happens.

152
00:08:24,600 --> 00:08:32,600
Speaker 1: But Tristan Cossas suffering a setback in his rehab. We

153
00:08:32,720 --> 00:08:36,199
Speaker 1: got this from Tim Healy as well. He has a

154
00:08:36,320 --> 00:08:42,480
Speaker 1: strained left intercoastal muscle, which is right near the oblique

155
00:08:42,960 --> 00:08:46,640
Speaker 1: and the ribs. He is shut down from hitting until

156
00:08:46,720 --> 00:08:51,199
Speaker 1: symptoms subside and he hasn't got an MRI. The Red

157
00:08:51,200 --> 00:08:54,000
Speaker 1: Sox will see how he progresses in the coming days.

158
00:08:54,960 --> 00:08:57,679
Speaker 1: That's a bummer for Tristan Cassas. You know, he's been

159
00:08:57,720 --> 00:09:00,880
Speaker 1: working hard, looks like he's in this great Remember he

160
00:09:00,920 --> 00:09:05,679
Speaker 1: had the rib injury a couple of years ago that

161
00:09:05,720 --> 00:09:09,080
Speaker 1: came back up again, so I would imagine it's the

162
00:09:10,559 --> 00:09:12,559
Speaker 1: Is that the same I think it's the same side

163
00:09:12,640 --> 00:09:14,360
Speaker 1: or I don't know. I don't know if it's the

164
00:09:14,360 --> 00:09:17,840
Speaker 1: same side as the injury from last time. Either way,

165
00:09:18,000 --> 00:09:21,680
Speaker 1: right same area. It's a bummer. For trusting Cassas. Right,

166
00:09:21,800 --> 00:09:24,280
Speaker 1: Like I said, he's been working hard, and that's a

167
00:09:24,320 --> 00:09:27,280
Speaker 1: guy where you know the power upside he's got. And

168
00:09:27,320 --> 00:09:30,240
Speaker 1: if you can get back to even somewhat close to

169
00:09:30,240 --> 00:09:31,760
Speaker 1: what he was doing a couple of years ago, back

170
00:09:31,800 --> 00:09:35,000
Speaker 1: in twenty twenty three, and uh hey, that's gonna be

171
00:09:35,000 --> 00:09:38,120
Speaker 1: a boost. But in the end, we don't now we

172
00:09:38,160 --> 00:09:40,439
Speaker 1: now know or we now don't know when Cassas is

173
00:09:40,480 --> 00:09:43,800
Speaker 1: going to be coming back. So I don't know. Man,

174
00:09:45,960 --> 00:09:48,240
Speaker 1: Just a bad day, bad day for the Red Sox,

175
00:09:48,280 --> 00:09:52,000
Speaker 1: bad day for Red Sox fans. What can you do?

176
00:09:52,480 --> 00:09:54,880
Speaker 1: What can you do? Thank goodness for the off day tomorrow.

177
00:09:54,920 --> 00:09:56,280
Speaker 1: I think we all need a bit of a breather.

178
00:09:57,160 --> 00:09:59,440
Speaker 1: But let's get into it here. We're gonna go over this.

179
00:09:59,480 --> 00:10:02,520
Speaker 1: We're gonna go over the scoring, go over crochet. We'll

180
00:10:02,520 --> 00:10:05,440

192
00:10:39,280 --> 00:10:47,239
Speaker 1: to Crochet here. Overall, you know, just a down day. Cutters, sinkers, sweepers,

193
00:10:47,640 --> 00:10:50,320
Speaker 1: four seemers, mixing a few change ups along the way.

194
00:10:51,040 --> 00:10:53,640
Speaker 1: The cutter was getting hit pretty hard today. Three hard

195
00:10:53,720 --> 00:10:56,480
Speaker 1: hits off of the cutter. I wonder if we're going

196
00:10:56,520 --> 00:10:58,960
Speaker 1: to see more sinkers and four seemers next time. He

197
00:10:59,040 --> 00:11:02,199
Speaker 1: did decrease that four usage yet again, misted with the

198
00:11:02,240 --> 00:11:05,760
Speaker 1: sweeper a couple of times here today. Obviously the one

199
00:11:05,800 --> 00:11:08,120
Speaker 1: big blow to Carlos Korea. We'll get to that in

200
00:11:08,120 --> 00:11:12,360
Speaker 1: a second. But overall, an average of ninety two miles

201
00:11:12,360 --> 00:11:15,679
Speaker 1: an hour on the exit v low. These guys were

202
00:11:15,679 --> 00:11:18,040
Speaker 1: seeing him pretty well today. They were battling, They had

203
00:11:18,040 --> 00:11:22,280
Speaker 1: good abs. The Astros are looking good. First inning, you know,

204
00:11:22,320 --> 00:11:25,360
Speaker 1: after the Red Sox got started off on the right foot,

205
00:11:25,440 --> 00:11:27,800
Speaker 1: Durant had the bass hit, Masa had to walk, and

206
00:11:27,800 --> 00:11:29,920
Speaker 1: then Contreras had the RBI base hit and make it

207
00:11:29,920 --> 00:11:34,720
Speaker 1: one nothing. The Astros answered right back, Jordon Avarez, this

208
00:11:34,800 --> 00:11:37,960
Speaker 1: guy is just red hot, stays hot with the double

209
00:11:38,880 --> 00:11:42,240
Speaker 1: funny crochet, you know, he was like, all right, we're

210
00:11:42,280 --> 00:11:45,120
Speaker 1: tired of Jordon just cooking us. Left him right. He

211
00:11:45,200 --> 00:11:47,599
Speaker 1: ended up brushing him back later in the game, and

212
00:11:47,640 --> 00:11:50,240
Speaker 1: then well he not. He brushed him back and then

213
00:11:50,280 --> 00:11:52,480
Speaker 1: he hit him after that. I don't think he was

214
00:11:52,520 --> 00:11:53,760
Speaker 1: trying to hit him. I think he was just trying

215
00:11:53,760 --> 00:11:58,200
Speaker 1: to make him uncomfortable. But jord On was, uh, this

216
00:11:58,240 --> 00:12:01,440
Speaker 1: guy's just been incredible. But back to the first inning,

217
00:12:01,679 --> 00:12:03,920
Speaker 1: after the double paradus with the RBI bass hit, they

218
00:12:03,920 --> 00:12:06,880
Speaker 1: made it one to one. Here came the error from

219
00:12:06,920 --> 00:12:10,480
Speaker 1: Trevor Story ended up being safe. I'm not sure what

220
00:12:10,640 --> 00:12:14,240
Speaker 1: happened on that error. It looked like a pretty routine play.

221
00:12:14,440 --> 00:12:16,439
Speaker 1: I don't even want to say a pretty routine play.

222
00:12:16,640 --> 00:12:19,960
Speaker 1: That looked as routine as it could be. It looked

223
00:12:20,000 --> 00:12:22,680
Speaker 1: like he just misjudged the hop a little bit. It

224
00:12:22,720 --> 00:12:25,440
Speaker 1: took a couple of little hops and I don't know,

225
00:12:26,120 --> 00:12:29,680
Speaker 1: he just got fooled on it. Christian Walker had the

226
00:12:29,720 --> 00:12:32,720
Speaker 1: RBI base hit to make it two to one. The

227
00:12:32,760 --> 00:12:36,000
Speaker 1: Red Sox battle back again, though Ikf he got on

228
00:12:36,160 --> 00:12:40,120
Speaker 1: after the SETI hit by pitch, set he ended up

229
00:12:40,120 --> 00:12:42,520
Speaker 1: getting out there. Ikf ended up being safe at first

230
00:12:42,800 --> 00:12:45,000
Speaker 1: and then Connor Wong with he at another double. How

231
00:12:45,040 --> 00:12:48,160
Speaker 1: about Connor freakin Wong here, my goodness, Connor Wan looked

232
00:12:48,200 --> 00:12:51,080
Speaker 1: like Manny Ramirez for crying out loud. But then Durant

233
00:12:51,080 --> 00:12:52,640
Speaker 1: had the ground out that tied it up at two.

234
00:12:54,160 --> 00:12:56,839
Speaker 1: You had the Willier Roman home runs late in the game,

235
00:12:57,440 --> 00:12:59,480
Speaker 1: but that was it for the Red Sox offense because

236
00:12:59,480 --> 00:13:05,520
Speaker 1: the Astra was too much damage for the Red Sox

237
00:13:05,559 --> 00:13:09,439
Speaker 1: to overcome. They ended up getting to Crochet big home

238
00:13:09,520 --> 00:13:11,520
Speaker 1: run from Carlos Korea later in the game in the

239
00:13:11,520 --> 00:13:13,880
Speaker 1: fifth inning, three run homer that made it five to

240
00:13:13,880 --> 00:13:16,600
Speaker 1: two at the time on a sweeper that just didn't sweep.

241
00:13:16,640 --> 00:13:19,440
Speaker 1: They were trying to go low and in and that

242
00:13:19,480 --> 00:13:23,240
Speaker 1: one hung right over the plate. Final line for Crochet

243
00:13:23,240 --> 00:13:26,760
Speaker 1: here today, five inning, six hits, five runs, four earned

244
00:13:27,120 --> 00:13:30,160
Speaker 1: seven k's. The home run of Korea. Bullpen came in

245
00:13:30,200 --> 00:13:33,359
Speaker 1: after that. Colomb gave up the home runner Christian Vasquez

246
00:13:34,880 --> 00:13:38,120
Speaker 1: Whitlock didn't look great thirty seven pitches, he had a battle.

247
00:13:39,000 --> 00:13:41,520
Speaker 1: Weisser looked better here today, so that's nice to see.

248
00:13:41,600 --> 00:13:47,960
Speaker 1: But Greg Weiser, man, this it's kind of that's it's

249
00:13:48,640 --> 00:13:51,000
Speaker 1: how many times have we seen it? Greg Weiser? He

250
00:13:51,120 --> 00:13:55,120
Speaker 1: just pitches well in these lower leverage situations, so hopefully

251
00:13:55,120 --> 00:13:58,800
Speaker 1: he can continue to improve as the season goes on.

252
00:13:59,400 --> 00:14:02,360
Speaker 1: So I see you in the chat Sunny days. Getting

253
00:14:02,400 --> 00:14:05,959
Speaker 1: swept never feels good. It does not feel good. It's

254
00:14:06,000 --> 00:14:09,559
Speaker 1: like it's funny, like you know, we've had five straight

255
00:14:09,600 --> 00:14:16,960
Speaker 1: postgame shows now where you know, it's just a terrible

256
00:14:16,960 --> 00:14:19,360
Speaker 1: feeling after every single one. It's like, goodness, can we

257
00:14:19,440 --> 00:14:22,640
Speaker 1: just get at least one win in here? It's it

258
00:14:22,720 --> 00:14:25,640
Speaker 1: just changes just the feeling of everything. Even if you

259
00:14:25,760 --> 00:14:28,560
Speaker 1: just get one win in the mix, it's like I

260
00:14:28,640 --> 00:14:33,160
Speaker 1: hate doing it every single day. Goodness, gracious, let's get

261
00:14:33,160 --> 00:14:37,000
Speaker 1: a win on Friday for crying out loud. But that

262
00:14:37,200 --> 00:14:40,480
Speaker 1: is it for this game. Here is the Astros just

263
00:14:40,520 --> 00:14:43,280
Speaker 1: in complete control. Again. The Red Sox look bad, but

264
00:14:43,360 --> 00:14:45,640
Speaker 1: I also want to give credit to the Astros. They

265
00:14:45,640 --> 00:14:48,640
Speaker 1: are looking really good here. It is what it is.

266
00:14:49,080 --> 00:14:54,440
Speaker 1: So what have we got here? Mike in the chat, Robbie.

267
00:14:54,440 --> 00:15:00,760
Speaker 1: Why the long leash on Cora? John Ferrell got us one. Yeah,

268
00:15:01,000 --> 00:15:03,120
Speaker 1: I don't know. I just know they like Korra there.

269
00:15:04,840 --> 00:15:07,080
Speaker 1: I like Cora too, man, and I get it. You know,

270
00:15:07,120 --> 00:15:11,320
Speaker 1: there has been some For me, there have been question

271
00:15:11,400 --> 00:15:13,480
Speaker 1: marks when it comes to some of the lineup decisions

272
00:15:13,480 --> 00:15:17,240
Speaker 1: in the past. You keep wondering, like why this. I

273
00:15:17,240 --> 00:15:19,680
Speaker 1: don't know. The defense, just in the infield, they keep

274
00:15:19,720 --> 00:15:24,360
Speaker 1: having issues. I don't know, man, I'm not gonna sit

275
00:15:24,400 --> 00:15:26,800
Speaker 1: here and say like, oh, Cora needs to you know,

276
00:15:26,920 --> 00:15:28,760
Speaker 1: he needs to go. I'm not gonna do that. I

277
00:15:28,800 --> 00:15:32,520
Speaker 1: don't know. I like Korra a lot. I can understand

278
00:15:32,600 --> 00:15:39,920
Speaker 1: why people are not very high on him. But I

279
00:15:40,000 --> 00:15:41,920
Speaker 1: just know he has a good relationship with the front office.

280
00:15:42,040 --> 00:15:46,600
Speaker 1: I know that. So Doug Davis in the chat, what

281
00:15:46,920 --> 00:15:49,720
Speaker 1: are we doing here, Doug Davis, we gotta we gotta,

282
00:15:50,280 --> 00:15:52,360
Speaker 1: we gotta quit. What are we doing here? Doug? What

283
00:15:52,360 --> 00:15:55,640
Speaker 1: are we doing? What have we got? Brian, I'm already

284
00:15:55,680 --> 00:15:57,560
Speaker 1: out on this season, he says, I don't care if

285
00:15:57,600 --> 00:15:59,720
Speaker 1: it's still early. This team has been mediocre for seven

286
00:15:59,800 --> 00:16:02,320
Speaker 1: years now. They refuse to spend money, they refuse to

287
00:16:02,360 --> 00:16:06,920
Speaker 1: sign star players. Yeah, let me. Listen, you all saw

288
00:16:07,240 --> 00:16:09,560
Speaker 1: I was not happy after they didn't bring back Bregman.

289
00:16:09,920 --> 00:16:12,320
Speaker 1: I was not happy about it. You know. I was

290
00:16:12,360 --> 00:16:16,520
Speaker 1: also even thinking earlier, like, you know, they are they

291
00:16:16,600 --> 00:16:20,440
Speaker 1: missing that a little bit. Obviously Bregman's the talent. You

292
00:16:20,480 --> 00:16:23,200
Speaker 1: would obviously love to have that back. But just him

293
00:16:23,200 --> 00:16:26,680
Speaker 1: being in the clubhouse, you know, you kinda Bregman is

294
00:16:26,680 --> 00:16:30,680
Speaker 1: obviously so good on the field, but he's just such

295
00:16:30,760 --> 00:16:34,080
Speaker 1: a glue guy in the clubhouse, right, good leader in

296
00:16:34,080 --> 00:16:38,880
Speaker 1: the clubhouse. I don't know, is that something maybe they're

297
00:16:38,880 --> 00:16:41,680
Speaker 1: missing here a little bit. It is what it is.

298
00:16:44,640 --> 00:16:46,600
Speaker 1: Let's move on here, Let's go to the next game.

299
00:16:47,120 --> 00:16:49,880
Speaker 1: Let's go to the next series. We got the Padres

300
00:16:49,920 --> 00:16:53,880
Speaker 1: coming to town, Red Sox home opener on Friday, Sonny

301
00:16:53,920 --> 00:16:56,520
Speaker 1: Gray getting the nod against the Michael King. Hey, the

302
00:16:56,520 --> 00:16:58,520
Speaker 1: Red Sox they were showing some interest in Michael King

303
00:16:59,400 --> 00:17:01,240
Speaker 1: showing some interest and ended up going back to the

304
00:17:01,240 --> 00:17:05,520
Speaker 1: pog Rays for the Podres. Obviously, you got a lot

305
00:17:05,520 --> 00:17:08,159
Speaker 1: of talent in that lineup, right. You got Fernando Tizes Junior,

306
00:17:08,280 --> 00:17:11,600
Speaker 1: you got Jackson Merrill, Manny Macchado, Xander Bogart's coming back

307
00:17:11,600 --> 00:17:15,040
Speaker 1: to Boston. Gotta love that. Hey, Podre is still a

308
00:17:15,119 --> 00:17:18,320
Speaker 1: very good team. Got some good pitching here, and uh,

309
00:17:18,800 --> 00:17:21,080
Speaker 1: Michael King went healthy. One of the better pictures in

310
00:17:21,119 --> 00:17:25,840
Speaker 1: the game. That bullpen looks amazing. Mason Miller full time

311
00:17:25,840 --> 00:17:31,560
Speaker 1: closer for the pogreis now gonna be a tough matchup right, Pogres.

312
00:17:31,760 --> 00:17:34,200
Speaker 1: Every single year they're right in the mix for a

313
00:17:34,200 --> 00:17:41,000
Speaker 1: playoff spot. So that's pretty much all we got here

314
00:17:41,040 --> 00:17:43,080
Speaker 1: for today, ladies and gentlemen. I don't really know what

315
00:17:43,119 --> 00:17:45,680
Speaker 1: else to say. Uh, it's a bummer of a day.

316
00:17:46,080 --> 00:17:49,000
Speaker 1: Bummer of a day. You know you're wanting to start

317
00:17:49,040 --> 00:17:51,000
Speaker 1: off on the right foot, you know, I listen. I'm

318
00:17:51,000 --> 00:17:53,800
Speaker 1: not saying you gotta come out of the gate six

319
00:17:53,840 --> 00:17:56,919
Speaker 1: and oh all right, but goodness gracious, a couple more

320
00:17:56,960 --> 00:18:00,520
Speaker 1: wins here would have been nice. Hopefully they can bounce

321
00:18:00,560 --> 00:18:04,200
Speaker 1: back when we go back home. What else we got

322
00:18:04,200 --> 00:18:05,560
Speaker 1: going on in the chat? We have a super chat.

323
00:18:05,680 --> 00:18:07,920
Speaker 1: Let's get to the super chat. Thank you for the

324
00:18:07,920 --> 00:18:11,520
Speaker 1: super chat. Do appreciate that. Let's pull that up here

325
00:18:15,440 --> 00:18:18,960
Speaker 1: alrighty from Steven, Thank you, Steven. I do appreciate this one.

326
00:18:20,960 --> 00:18:23,000
Speaker 1: It's not a small sample when it comes to striking

327
00:18:23,000 --> 00:18:26,120
Speaker 1: out a ton. It's been the same thing since last year.

328
00:18:26,720 --> 00:18:31,280
Speaker 1: Good point. Nothing has changed offensively. The approach of drive

329
00:18:31,320 --> 00:18:35,679
Speaker 1: line is hurting these players. Example, Durban now strikes out more. Yeah, Durban.

330
00:18:36,760 --> 00:18:38,399
Speaker 1: It is funny, you know, when you bring up the

331
00:18:38,480 --> 00:18:41,000
Speaker 1: drive line thing. Durbin is hitting the ball harder up

332
00:18:41,040 --> 00:18:45,560
Speaker 1: to this point. But you kind of wonder if maybe

333
00:18:46,240 --> 00:18:48,679
Speaker 1: something else has been going on there a little bit.

334
00:18:48,720 --> 00:18:51,280
Speaker 1: He did look really good in spring, so you're thinking,

335
00:18:51,320 --> 00:18:54,280
Speaker 1: all right, okay, maybe we're we got something here with Durban,

336
00:18:54,960 --> 00:18:58,199
Speaker 1: but right now not looking good, not looking good. I

337
00:18:58,240 --> 00:19:01,720
Speaker 1: completely agree with you, and I think you bring up

338
00:19:01,760 --> 00:19:05,320
Speaker 1: a good point. It's you're right, it's not of course,

339
00:19:05,359 --> 00:19:08,240
Speaker 1: when I say small sample, we mean this year, this

340
00:19:08,320 --> 00:19:11,440
Speaker 1: season obviously six games in, but yeah, you go back

341
00:19:11,480 --> 00:19:15,560
Speaker 1: to last year, they've had these issues. You know, it's

342
00:19:15,600 --> 00:19:18,760
Speaker 1: nothing new. So I think you make a great point.

343
00:19:19,760 --> 00:19:22,240
Speaker 1: So that's where you kind of wonder, you know, at

344
00:19:22,280 --> 00:19:28,399
Speaker 1: some point, especially if this keeps going on. Right again,

345
00:19:29,760 --> 00:19:31,760
Speaker 1: you don't want to keep bringing up the excuse. But

346
00:19:32,400 --> 00:19:34,560
Speaker 1: we are still only six games in. But if you

347
00:19:34,600 --> 00:19:37,959
Speaker 1: think back to last year, last couple of years, it

348
00:19:38,040 --> 00:19:41,399
Speaker 1: has been a consistent issue. So if this keeps happening here.

349
00:19:41,960 --> 00:19:45,399
Speaker 1: You kind of wonder if maybe they start going a

350
00:19:45,400 --> 00:19:47,640
Speaker 1: bit of a different direction when it comes to the approach.

351
00:19:48,760 --> 00:19:51,399
Speaker 1: I don't know, man, but I think you make a

352
00:19:51,440 --> 00:19:56,040
Speaker 1: great point. Hopefully some home cooking. Hopefully just a reset

353
00:19:56,200 --> 00:19:59,280
Speaker 1: tomorrow on the off day, get their heads a little clear.

354
00:19:59,560 --> 00:20:02,160
Speaker 1: Obviously it worked for Roman here today. I know I'm

355
00:20:02,200 --> 00:20:04,840
Speaker 1: saying I wanted Roman in the lineup, but hey, you

356
00:20:04,880 --> 00:20:07,080
Speaker 1: know what, maybe sitting for a few winnings there today

357
00:20:07,720 --> 00:20:09,639
Speaker 1: helped him that much, and then he came up with

358
00:20:09,640 --> 00:20:12,760
Speaker 1: the home runs. So maybe just a breather for everyone

359
00:20:13,520 --> 00:20:16,119
Speaker 1: will be good and then get back on the red track.

360
00:20:16,200 --> 00:20:19,960
Speaker 1: But I'm gonna wrap it up right there, ladies and gentlemen. Again,

361
00:20:20,040 --> 00:20:27,960
Speaker 1: I've pretty much said everything I need to say. Yeah,

362
00:20:28,080 --> 00:20:30,400
Speaker 1: what have we got? One more comment? Maybe a couple

363
00:20:30,400 --> 00:20:34,600
Speaker 1: more comments in the chat here? I mean we got

364
00:20:34,600 --> 00:20:37,200
Speaker 1: we got Yankee fans arguing in the chat. I don't

365
00:20:37,200 --> 00:20:41,240
Speaker 1: know what is going on here, my goodness, Uh Brian Griffin,

366
00:20:41,680 --> 00:20:44,000
Speaker 1: Red Sox will make a trade and sell all the

367
00:20:44,040 --> 00:20:46,760
Speaker 1: young players before they allow themselves to lose one hundred

368
00:20:46,760 --> 00:20:52,080
Speaker 1: and twenty games. Stonesy Boonesy, love you to my friend.

369
00:20:52,200 --> 00:20:58,360
Speaker 1: Thank you for coming out today, Brian, Uh you're saying here,

370
00:20:58,359 --> 00:21:01,679
Speaker 1: do you remember? Oh yeah, we got Yankee fans in

371
00:21:01,720 --> 00:21:05,440
Speaker 1: the chat giving given a Red Sox Nation a bunch

372
00:21:05,560 --> 00:21:08,359
Speaker 1: of bunctioning nonsense. But hey, hey, the Red Sox stink

373
00:21:08,480 --> 00:21:11,159
Speaker 1: right now. Hey, you got we gotta take it on

374
00:21:11,200 --> 00:21:14,880
Speaker 1: the chin. Hey, listen, we gotta be fair. How many

375
00:21:14,880 --> 00:21:17,560
Speaker 1: times have you know the Yankees gone through their downs

376
00:21:17,600 --> 00:21:20,240
Speaker 1: and you see everyone in Red Sox Nation going after

377
00:21:20,320 --> 00:21:22,320
Speaker 1: Yankee fans. So hey, we got to take this one

378
00:21:22,359 --> 00:21:25,879
Speaker 1: on the chin. Gotta take it on the chin. It

379
00:21:26,000 --> 00:21:30,600
Speaker 1: is what it is, Sunny day saying some home cooking

380
00:21:30,680 --> 00:21:37,280
Speaker 1: on Friday. Yeah, that'd be nice. Phil Roman's about to

381
00:21:37,280 --> 00:21:40,520
Speaker 1: break out at home. Hey, nice to see Roman going

382
00:21:40,600 --> 00:21:44,120
Speaker 1: deep here today. Good sign, especially after the four strikeouts yesterday.

383
00:21:44,400 --> 00:21:48,159
Speaker 1: Good to see you know we're not gonna, hopefully not

384
00:21:48,240 --> 00:22:00,119
Speaker 1: be going through a prolonged kind of a slump. What

385
00:22:00,119 --> 00:22:01,800
Speaker 1: else we got? I'm just looking for a couple more

386
00:22:01,840 --> 00:22:05,360
Speaker 1: comments in the chat that we can talk about. MVP Nation,

387
00:22:05,480 --> 00:22:08,560
Speaker 1: Connolly Early, he's gonna stop this losing streak. We do

388
00:22:08,600 --> 00:22:11,240
Speaker 1: go Connelly Early yet again in this Padre series coming

389
00:22:11,320 --> 00:22:15,520
Speaker 1: up extra and what changes are coming? They can't continue

390
00:22:15,520 --> 00:22:17,840
Speaker 1: to run out there with the same approach Fatt. He

391
00:22:17,880 --> 00:22:20,560
Speaker 1: needs to go. It's just not working. They should bring

392
00:22:20,600 --> 00:22:23,960
Speaker 1: in someone like Manny or jad Martinez to help him out. Well,

393
00:22:23,960 --> 00:22:27,520
Speaker 1: we can't do Jady Martinez now because he's now working

394
00:22:27,560 --> 00:22:31,680
Speaker 1: with the Mets. Jady Martinez. Man Obviously, he was such

395
00:22:31,680 --> 00:22:34,320
Speaker 1: a good bat for the Red Sox, especially in twenty eighteen,

396
00:22:35,440 --> 00:22:38,439
Speaker 1: but I think he just brought so much more to

397
00:22:38,520 --> 00:22:41,159
Speaker 1: the table. He was just a guy. He was It

398
00:22:41,200 --> 00:22:43,359
Speaker 1: was almost like having a hitting coach. He's so good

399
00:22:43,359 --> 00:22:46,440
Speaker 1: with all the other guys there. You know, Manny Ramirez Man,

400
00:22:47,800 --> 00:22:49,480
Speaker 1: I would love it if you bring in a guy

401
00:22:49,520 --> 00:22:51,720
Speaker 1: like Manny. The guy just knows heading man. But I

402
00:22:51,760 --> 00:22:53,560
Speaker 1: don't think the Red Sox would do something like that.

403
00:22:53,760 --> 00:22:56,520
Speaker 1: I think they have just completely gone in a completely

404
00:22:56,520 --> 00:22:59,320
Speaker 1: different direction. You know, he saw last year. You know,

405
00:22:59,359 --> 00:23:03,240
Speaker 1: there was someone that was saying to you know, Jim Rice, basically,

406
00:23:03,640 --> 00:23:07,200
Speaker 1: you're no, your your opinion's not welcome here pretty much.

407
00:23:07,320 --> 00:23:09,960
Speaker 1: So they're saying that to someone like Jim Rice, And

408
00:23:10,119 --> 00:23:12,800
Speaker 1: goodness gracious, I don't think many Ramirez is gonna be

409
00:23:12,800 --> 00:23:18,600
Speaker 1: getting hired by the Red Sox anytime soon. Anyway, I'm

410
00:23:18,600 --> 00:23:21,640
Speaker 1: gonna wrap it up there, ladies and gentlemen. Again, tough day,

411
00:23:22,400 --> 00:23:26,879
Speaker 1: tough week. Hopefully coming back home can help. Got the

412
00:23:26,880 --> 00:23:31,639
Speaker 1: home crowd Friday afternoon. Hopefully a nice day, Hopefully a

413
00:23:31,680 --> 00:23:33,440
Speaker 1: good day. Overall we can come away with a wind,
