The second coming of the Miller implosion begins...

 

[death2redemptions]

Shelby Miller has very little competition for "worst pitcher in baseball" status.

 

[death2redemptions]

Now Miller can't find the strike zone and he gives up a 2 run double.

It's like clockwork, the same thing happens with Miller every game. He's insanely predictable.

 

[death2redemptions]

It's ridiculous hearing all the excuses from the manager, upper management and announcers regarding Shelby Miller.

Tell it like it is...the guy blows. He's the worst pitcher in baseball and needs to be punished. Send him to advanced A and keep him down there for awhile. Stop trying to save face.

 

[death2redemptions]

And now it's 6-0 Pirates *smh*

 

[death2redemptions]

And yes, he gave up that RBI hit to the opposing pitcher...

 

[death2redemptions]

Miller has a 7.42 ERA & 1.90 WHIP at the moment.

Meanwhile you have 2 legitimate pitching prospects tearing up AAA...

Upper management trying to save face.

I heard JBJ now has a 28 game hit streak. Before the season began if I were to hear someone on the Sox would be closing in on a 30 game hitting streak JBJ wouldn't be the player I imagined would be putting it together.

 

[death2redemptions]

Goldy has reached base twice via the walk and now hits a single.

 

[death2redemptions]

Liriano has lost the strike zone.

Bases loaded with 2 outs for Tomas.

 

[death2redemptions]

Liriano has walked in a run. No, please...keep him in!

 

[death2redemptions]

As I predicted, Shelby Miller got demolished.

And now the Pirates are demolishing our bullpen.

10-1 Pirates and counting...

 

[death2redemptions]

12-1 Pirates

I'm one of JBJ's biggest supporters and I wouldn't have guessed it either. Halfway there!


Here's his hit chart during the streak, tell me that's not insanely impressive:

I know JBJ's bat was finally coming alive during the second half of last season but I wouldn't have thought he'd be consistent enough to put together such a long streak. If I were have been told from the future a Sox player may be closing in on a 30 game hit streak I probably would have assumed it was Bogaerts.

There was a time that I was starting to think JBJ's offensive potential was a bust. He always had the marvelous glove but I didn't know if he'd be able to hit enough to stay in the starting lineup and possibly just become a defensive replacement. He's finally living up to the huge potential he had as a top prospect.

 

[death2redemptions]

Pirates are going to slaughter us again. Rubby looks very hitable.

 

[death2redemptions]

And based on how easy we went down in the first we'll be lucky to score a couple runs.

And now Lamb commits an error. Our pitching, defense & offense is dead.

I'm getting really bored with this team. The D-Backs suck and I'm certain we'll end up a sub .500 team by the end of the season. Nothing to be proud about with this team.

 

[death2redemptions]

Rubby K Count: 1

And somehow he gets out of the inning without giving up a run.

Thru 1...
1 IP 0 ER 2 H 0 BB 1 SO

 

[death2redemptions]

This is ridiculous. Umpires are such a nuisance to the game. Get rid of this idiotic "human element", it only hinders the game.

Now we have to sit around and wait forever because this moron umpire got hit with a ball.
