Is this the place for a victory lap or am I required to be miserable ?

Never a doubt !!

3 wins in a row LFG !! Yessssss LMAO !! DELIRIOUS !

2 gone LFG !!

1 down LFG !

LFG !!! Let's hang on to what we got .

I wish Eloy had Ramos simple stance

No we usually discuss trading the reclamation projects the Sox hope will play well enough to be traded or guys like Eloy and Moncada who are likely to be dumped after the season because they are too injury prone and make too much money. Guys like Lee we just got last year at the trade deadline. We're hoping to get more like him at the coming deadline.

The whole season is a series of blips. A couple of guys are hot pitching and hitting and the Sox have eeked out some Ws. Getz has subtracted,added, subtracted added all off season and during the season and that will continue when we have injuries, get the injured players back, trade and then promote others. Then dump more salary in the off season and we'll get to see if Getz is allowed to spend more. Unfortunately spending in a low mid to mid tier is when the old regime wasted the most money and frankly the owner has already proclaimed that the Sox cannot compete at their current location. Getz will have to be miracle worker to get this franchise back to .500 let alone competing for a playoff spot in the next few years.

I'm not claiming anything, just pointing out people are generally impatient and judge things way too soon and create reasons to be upset. Plenty of real reasons to be upset without crying about Matthew Thompson . Also if a Getz sunshine blower is a guy who realizes he's dealing with an owner who's basically forced him to operate on the fringes I'll accept that. I see that as reality and the big picture.

Lol I pretty much gave up telling people it's too early for.... Basically everything everyone talks about in sports. Predict the Sox record in January, who won a trade of 2 minor leaguers, Sox All Star Rep in April. Most posts now don't really care about small sample sizes. Every one wants instant validation they were right or want players jettisoned right away. Yes people have a right to declare Flexen sucks when he was acquired and for his 1st 3 starts, but you don't DFA guys you acquire who are projects that you acquire specifically because you are a terrible team and trying to find short term tradable upside . You defeat the purpose of the acquisition by DFAing pitching projects. People don't look at the big picture or just don't care. They need to be angry and pound the table that a GM who has barely gotten his feet wet and is just dealing with fringe players now because he has no budget, sucks and all his trades and signings suck . Every hot streak a player might be ok. Every cold streak he should be DFAd. I just have to keep telling myself welcome to the internet and all the toxicity that message boarding and social media brings where people only communicate in short angry bursts.

I hate Ramirez and Naylor . Brebbia too lol. Double digit wins tonight LFG !

Amazing job by Leasure

Kept Fedde in too long.

So far so good with Fedde. Hoping for more Sox runs. Fedde usually gives up a bomb and I think it's the worse half of the bullpen night.
