Yanks defense & reliever Adam Warren falling apart in 7th. 6-4 Stros now

Not sure it matters. This was always the Sox division in 2017.

If he thought this was a "HUGE" game, then he is a head case.

Huge may overstate, but let's say ..if I am going to be a TOR guy, then part of that is stopping nasty little losing streaks and he has failed that test miserably.

The O's are pretty good at making last place teams look like the next WS contenders...

I fully expect the offense to sleepwalk through their next three at bats. 

I'll be pleasantly surprised if we bring the tying run to the plate.

I don't see how we can give up on him with no starters or potential starters to take his place. In some ways it's the same problem we face with Ubaldo, though there are differences.

They're not getting rid of him.

In all fairness they had won four of six before the Series started.  Similar to that terrible '14 Series...hot against cold. Not blowouts.

I agree.  But they need to figure something out with him.  Should be so much better than this.  Goes without saying.

I haven't bothered to actually look, but doesn't it seem like Givens has pitched a lot recently?

This where a healthy Tillman would have put an end to a three game losing streak.  Gausman brought a gas can and matches to the mound today.

Yes lots of pressure in a game 9-1.  I would think lot better chance he lost his concentration with big lead.  Kinda like closer in 5 run game just getting work.

 

Losing your concentration with a big lead is any better? Good pitchers don't do that.

Plenty of losing streaks that Tillman did not put an end to in years past, but, it might help.   Pretty sad when we have this sad sack group of starters and a bullpen that is now not only not a strength, it is a major liability.  Going to be a long month. 

[Surhoffan17]

That helps.

Bundy tried but the offense and pen screwed him over.
