Right? It feels like a lineup with TA, Yoan, Robert, Abreu, Yaz, Eloy, Vaughn and Pollock is not actually allowed to happen.

I find it much more likely that he’s just misreading the trade market.

Also, continuing to view the roster through the “when healthy” lens is incredibly stupid. You’re allowed to trade for depth!

I can already hear Hahn dropping the line about “two straight division titles” this offseason when he’s justifying not making significant improvements. Being in this division is a blessing and a curse.

Now when they come away with nothing, Rick can say "I indicated we were being agressive, not aggressive." We're on to you.

Sure, try to get better at the trade deadline. But a cool idea would be to also try to get better in the offseason ?‍♂️

I get what you're saying, but its funny how quickly this easy schedule ends up with all these caveats. Orioles: Well, they're not as bad as we thought Rockies: They're a better team at home Royals: They're always annoying to play FWIW this says way more about the Sox and how low their bar is than it does anything about their opponents.

Why?

They’re stuck in between. Not good enough to contend, not quite bad enough to retool. Combine that with a stubborn front office and a trash division and here we are, just sort of existing.

Confident he won’t miss time from the thing that caused him to miss time.

Contract the whole division.

Just ain’t happening. We’re stuck with this team and everything we hate about it.

This team is such trash for about 10,000 reasons.

“Upgrades at second base and in right field.” The jokes write themselves.

I expect .500 baseball until I have a reason not to.

I believe Tuesday is the day they finally get over .500 for the first time since May. And there will be much rejoicing. And they will be back to .500 the next day.

Yes, let us wildly celebrate a triumphant series split at home, successfully gaining no ground on a team they need to pass in the standings.

Eh, I can see them winning and pulling people back in for the 900th time, just to set up the 901st letdown.

Welp, time for another one of their triumphant two game winning streaks (followed by a two game losing streak, followed by a two game winning streak, etc, etc). This team is a joy.

No doubt in my mind that they will have enough two game win streaks (lol) leading up to the deadline to convince themselves they should still be buyers, yet never even get above .500.

That almost makes it sound like a luck thing. Make no mistake, they’ve earned being this bad.

I prefer the all star break

It’s the high level version of saving Liam for a save situation that never comes.

If you expect a sense of urgency for a series against a team ahead of them in the standings when it’s only late July, that’s your own fault.
