I guess some guys realized that they need to impress and keep their jobs. Too late though.

TLR should have retired before the season with his drinking and heart issues combined with his advanced age. It was irresponsible of him and the FO and JR to have allowed this disaster to happen.

Sox are consistently mediocre.

What is the point of Payton? He has looked bad at the plate and in the outfield. Is he considered better than Helseley?

Is there a financial reward for finishing second?

I believe Cueto is our starter that has gone deeper into games. Magic pixie dust is still there.

Agree. Also I hope they don’t bring back Sox Math. It is very tedious.

Cairo bringing in Jimmy Lambert in the 7 th to protect a 3-1 lead against the Guardians having ReyLo available, cost Cairo the job.

Looks like they are looking for the anti TLR.

That was not a criteria for the TLR hire. Glad they finally learnt something.

The new Jeff Bezos coming up.

Sheets has improved more than Vaughn and helps that he is a lefty. Vaughn has not looked good defensively even at first base.

Disappointment that TLR did not resign before the season with pacemaker issue and another undisclosed heart problem, plus the DUI at age 78. It was irresponsible from TLR and the FO.

Because the Sox were out homered at home. Didn’t take advantage of homer friendly GRF. Had too many power outages at home.

Too bad it is one year too late, but we will still happily take it.

With Leury serving them drinks.

Particularly combined with not signing a good LH outfielder.

Looks like they think they are on South Beach instead of SoCal. On the broadcast one of the announcers said it was the Don Johnson look , presumably Miami Vice look.

Beats me. He looked terrible at the plate tonight.

Andrus is better than Big Energy.

Payton was completely overmatched by Clevinger. Not a good sight.

The tightest strike zone I have seen all season. Must have called at least of handful of balls that clearly had the plate were called balls. They need to be held accountable also for this failed season.

If TLR goes, JR will get Leury a companion ticket out of town together.

Normally the 8 th inning has been our Achilles Heel.

The first two innings epitomizes the Sox season. Failure to move the runner to third with no outs in the first inning cost us us a run, and failed to score with men on second and third and one out in the second. Padres turned a routine base hit into a double running on our LF and this cost us a run.
