not true. Diaz called a consistent game. If he was consistently bad, he was bad for both. Umpires develop an in game strike zone. Diaz strike zone was consistent all game and calls went both ways. I am 100% allowed to comment on baseball, it doesnt have to be only when the Yankees are playing I am a fan of the game. I think we have covered this prior. You can focus on Sox, you do not need to bring the NYY to make yourself feel better.

Diaz sucked behind the plate, consistently sucking doesn’t make it ok. And you’ve commented more on baseball today that you did the entire time your team was actually playing, which is a little weird.

that is your opinion. Umpires are subjective. You sound so lame complaining about umpires.. Have fun second guessing, the game is over the Sox lost. Its ok, they aren't going win every game. Same with the Patriots, can they ever lose without Pats fans having an excuse for why they lost. The Astros pounded them last night. It happens. New game tonight. And metrics say every single MLB pitcher metrics go down each successive time through the line up. I am pretty sure Cora knows what he is doing. How come you do not second guess him when he makes the right call? You only second guess when his decision are wrong? Manager make 1000s of decision per game....really tough to call him out for only the ones that do not work out. Its baseball... you do not go undefeated and its OK for your team to lose a game. I didn't say Cora made the wrong decision pitcher-wise, but it is also fact that Pivetta was not at the end of physical limit or even really close. It worked for a few innings, but obviously he went to a starter in the 9th already tied. That would say to me that beyond who had already pitched from the pen, not a ton of confidence with any of the other arms. Which leads back to wondering about the starter. But like you say, it's over. So now we are onto Sale. Gave up a solo shot here in the second, but otherwise is relatively cruising. Guess we'll see how this one plays out.

Didn’t post anywhere. Unlike you who posts all day every day. Pretty much debating everyone and anyone on ever and all topics. Also unlike you, I am a baseball fan and watch all games not just my team.

Tip the cap to the Astros, they brought the can of whoop ass tonight. There is a good reason they were the top run producing team in the majors. And Valdez was amazing, not only did he shut down the 5th highest run scoring team in the majors, he also gave their bullpen the night off.
On to Houston, advantage Astros. #gosox

Congrats to Houston, they bounced back nicely after a couple of big losses, at the plate and on the bump. Now go lose to Atl/LA please. It may have ended with a loss, but this season for the Sox exceeded pretty much everyone’s expectations, mine included. See ya next year.

Yup, after a quiet finish to the regular season, the Sox caught fire early on in their postseason run. Then they went quiet down that stretch too. Congrats Astros, come on Braves!!
Side note: while this season exceeded expectations, Chaim has his work cut out for him in the offseason. Several glaring holes in the sox lineup and pitching ranks that they covered up pretty well this year. If not addressed, I would take the under on the club next year.

Unfortunately, for everyone in here, you'll be back every fucking day with more meaningless drivel.
