  2. Confused how our catchers didn’t pick up on this… I felt like watching you could almost predict it with Ortiz at a certain point.

  4. I’m now realizing that a closer is a perfect candidate for this since he usually starts a clean inning with no one on base. Eh I threw a wild ball so what

  8. The most hilarious thing is that when I was downtown in October, the team STILL had Clase’s banner hanging on the pole outside the stadium. Cheap Dolans can’t pay someone to remove it

  9. I’m bummed. Not a Guards fan but I liked Clase. Despite recent metrix don’t regard closers highly, I liked closers since I was kid. I thought it’s cool to be “the final boss” of the team that shuts the door for the other team. Mo, BK, Gagne, Perci, K-Rod, Hader, some of my favorite pitchers growing up were closers and Clase had “all time great” written all over him. Unlike many bullpen arms, he built his career as a closer at the age of 23 and was full time closer at 24. He’s got ridiculous stuff and seemed like he was going into his prime just last szn. I was expecting him to crush a lot of records as a closer and now this. Why tf would you do such a dumb ass stuff when you literally have glorified road and hundreds of millions of dollars awaiting for you in the future smh

  10. 4 pitches literally smashed into the ground with zero intention of being passable pitches. Unreal.

  18. I thought there was one pitch that there was suspicious betting on, and the batter swung at it, meaning everyone lost the bet?
