Better to have the slump now than at the end of the season. Sure, it’s just frustrating to watch all the contenders improve while we are simply betting on our injured players returning at 100%. Usually, teams with erratic bullpens and defense like this don’t last long in the post-season. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You don't need WAR to realize Yoan Moncada is an awesome baseball player. He's slumping but so is basically everyone except Vaughn. TA is not off the hook here. He has garbage at bats on a regular bases. He is a huge reason we suck lately Going up there and swinging at every fucking 1st pitch 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You can't score at least 4 runs against KC? And now Eloy could be hurt again? I'm starting to think it just isn't meant to be this year. And Vaughn gets taken out in the 9 th in a one run game with possibility of extras. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fathom Posted July 29, 2021 Share Posted July 29, 2021 You need to be able to hit the ball over the fence consistently. Just way too little power in the lineup currently. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How about you hit the ball out of the fucking park once in a while or drive someone in... 8 hr 44 rbi After 100 games for a supposed great player. Let that marinate......this supposed great player sucked last year too 2 1 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Should try to go the other way as well. Every time he pulls the ball he hits a ground to 3rd. He has not been setting the table for anyone.

Dan of Steel Posted July 29, 2021 Share Posted July 29, 2021 If I'm Gio or one of the guys in the rotation, I'm ripping Tim, Jose and Yoan a new one right now. These guys have been throwing some absolute gems for a while now, some excellent pitching performances like Giolito had today. And they are ALL going to waste, because these bats are Vanilla Ice. Cold as shit and lame as all fuck. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Somehow it is Yoan's fault that the Sox don't have guys in scoring position more often for his at bats. Yoan, why can't you DO BETTER than 1066 OPS with RISP you bum!?!?!?!

chw42 Posted July 29, 2021 Share Posted July 29, 2021 The sad thing is that we probably win this game if Leury didn't drop a routine fly ball in RF. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Of course it is but they have to go into a slump sometime and lose 20 more games because all teams win 60 and lose 60. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You are bitching that Yoan hasn't come up with more RBI chances and blaming that, somehow, on Yoan. 🤣 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

2Deep Posted July 29, 2021 Share Posted July 29, 2021 Listen......im frustrated ......not necessarily with the loss but with the complacency I see from our "stars." Great teams go through slumps but they are not complacent. I feel like we got to all star game with 9 game lead and our leaders and stars lost any edge they had.....complacent 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
