Rumor has it Dwigt Rortugal is off the table.

W-L record definitely does not matter, especially with this team. And I get what you’re saying, but Touki or whoever else you have in mind was not going to give you 160 innings. Hell, going into the season, I just assumed Flexen would be a guy DFA’d by June. It’s not sexy by any means, but he provided value to the Sox by filling an SP slot so that they only had to juggle 3 of those spots all season and not 4.

Yes and no. Ideally he’d have pitched well enough to flip at the deadline, but they also desperately needed an arm to eat innings just to get through the season.

This fucking guy has a life time contract with the team.

I understand the sentiment, but then what's the solution to getting a positional player core? Develop their own Trade for prospects Sign free agents Wish upon a star

It’s really annoying that JR gets to dodge the embarrassment of it happening at home, all while collecting an unexpected amount of $ from these relatively large crowds.

BORING

Are we really comparing strip clubs and tools to being emotionally invested in a sports team?

Angels are so pathetic.

Angels, can you not?

What a waste of time.

Alright let’s do this.

If he only wants to win his way, he doesn’t actually want to win that badly.

It's the complete opposite of turning a blind eye.

lolololol

I don’t know, I think we can all relate to loving something so much that we make an absolute disgrace of it while forever tarnishing our name.

Oops. It’s almost like they should’ve put more chips in as legit World Series contenders.

JR should build more rivers then

They really need to invest in the org. But if you’re skeptical that they actually do it, or that they do it right, I totally get that. Ideally they invest in both the team and the organization, but it’s not like JR is some billionaire.

Also can we just get the "JR lied to us about this being a quick turnaround" thing out of the way now so we don't have to read 30 separate comments about it please and thank you

While I can't say I feel great that Getz is the one leading this, it's what they absolutely should be doing, so it's nice to see from that standpoint.

While I think it’s way past the point of being able to save face, yeah, these wins are annoying and anticlimactic. <Insert obligatory comment about how the Sox can’t even lose right>

He should. Like it or not, they really need to see what he has. That’s exactly what a non competitive team should be doing.

They’ll 100% get the record, but they’re just gonna make us wait a bit. Kind of annoying to be honest.
