Three ex Sox pitchers in ESPN top 10 pitchers for 2026 season: #3 Crochet (after Skubel and Skenes) #7 Cease #9 Sale Too bad we could not keep them together. 🥲

Also include our hitting coaches. What is the explanation that Vaughn is doubling his production with the Brewers within a few weeks?

Name it the Relegation Division.

He will like the weather better.

Sox lineup is AAA quality at best. Noticed on game yesterday that all position players had OPS numbers below MLB averages. Hard to compete unless our pitching is superb. The Cubs have a much better team with more weapons. IMO.

Chicago has the second number of skyscrapers in the US after NYC with a beautiful skyline. However having the best skyline in the world will need to compare with other waterfront cities such as NYC, Miami, Hong Kong, Rio, Cape Town, San Francisco, Seattle, amongst others. IMO.

Particularly for the type of mediocre returns that Getz has been getting for our better players.

Good experience as MLB player and coach with winning organizations, contrary to Grifol. Very good hire IMO.

Getz’ trades have turned out to be mainly salary dumps as the Sox have not gotten much in return.

I would like to have a proven experienced major league manager. No more Grifol type coaches.

The pity was how little we got back for a rough diamond like MK. Fireballer relievers throwing 102 mph should have commanded a top prospect. Baseball people knew that MK with a better environment and coaching would be an invaluable asset. Getz screwed it up. IMO.

Or conversely tell them, the only way you would go to a Sox game this season is they pay you.

In the meantime, AJ Hinch and the Tigers are into the playoffs, and we got stuck with TLR instead which was the beginning of our decline. JR dictating JLR hire instead of AJ Hinch was a major blunder IMO.

No Nationwide is on your side jingle singing.
