Today would be yet another fine day to fire this guy…

Last night I only saw our at bats in the 9th.  Holy crap, what an embarrassing effort those 3 were.  I was shocked to hear in the post game that Robert had good at bats earlier in the game...he looked pretty awful making that last out.

Robert 3-4 w/ 2 BB a facing Lefties.  Sox left countless men on base before facing the lone RHP on the night in the 9th.  And it wasn’t pretty as you witnessed.

The Sox have done this more than several times this season. Down one in the ninth, they meekly go down 1-2-3 with the ball not leaving the infield. There is something disturbing about this.

Sure, they’re all pressing because they don’t totally trust their teammates or manager.

That pertains to both offense and defense.  Pitchers can’t trust the defense behind them.  Pollock can’t trust Vaughn or Eloy or Sheets to his right or left.

Moncada Anderson and Abreu can’t trust Abreu this year.  Pitchers can’t trust Seby and Grandal.

Every little distrust perpetuates itself and the cycle just continues with no end in sight.

Same with hitting with the bases loaded.  Or the starters not trusting the first reliever following them.

I'll give you Grandal... but Abreu seems very solid. In addition, Seby has elite framing numbers this year and has cut wayyyy down on passed balls and wild pitches. SSS, but his caught stealing rate is up too.

That’s the only rational reason I can see that he’s still employed.  As pathetic as that seems. 

It’s really the worst because if it’s true, it tells you what their priorities are (hint: it’s not winning). And if it’s not true, what the actual fork are we doing here?

2017 CHW: .256 AVG, .314 OBP, .417 SLG

2022 CHW: .258 AVG, .312 OBP, .386 SLG

Thats right, our offense is on par, if not worse, than the team we fielded after waving the white flag and starting a massive rebuild.

WHY ISNT ANYONE BEING HELD ACCOUNTABLE HERE?
