This defense was so much better when he was out. Any competent outfielder catches that ball. It's a poorly constructed roster being managed by a guy who got passed by decades ago. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Harry Chappas Posted May 17, 2022 Share Posted May 17, 2022 Offense sucks. That's it nothing more to discuss. Not pitching or defense. Offense can't score that's it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JoshPR Posted May 17, 2022 Share Posted May 17, 2022 Up 3-0 in the fricken 8th. Take a shower the game. More bad play. How does the HOF guy have this team ready to play? Should be you don't hustle you sit. I wonder if this team really wants Tony here Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Green Line Posted May 17, 2022 Share Posted May 17, 2022 WTF is wrong with DJ, he's become a huge homer lately. He said at the beginning of the game that the Sox "proved they could hang with the Yankees this weekend" and literally just said that the Sox have been winning close games all year! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
caulfield12 Posted May 17, 2022 Share Posted May 17, 2022 Now we are doing that sacrifice a tie game on the road thing with the pen.

You think they would learn, but I guess this FO and managerial staff are slow learners. These games are getting harder and harder to watch!

hankchifan Posted May 17, 2022 Share Posted May 17, 2022 2 minutes ago, Capn12 said: Sure, Pollock is definitely not the best defensive OFer...and he is still light years better than Vaughn. It is the 8th inning, your offense has sucked yet again to scrape out 3 runs, you can't have a defensive liability out there. A better LF catches that drive. Engel and possibly Pollock would have caught it. We only have two good outfielders on the team, Robert and Engel. We spent all our money on relievers instead. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
