Fun watching excellent D. Unfortunately it's always the other team.

3 words......Frank F'ing Menechino We lead the free world in opposite field hits, are in the 25th percentile in ground ball rate, launch angle and pitches per AB. That's philosophy and approach and being taught. God help us.

Don't fret the record. TLR will be back if we lose 90 games too. It is a given so we may as well win anyway.

So the Sox are behind Cleveland and Minny in both the standings, organizational effectiveness, and farm systems. They are (soon to be) only marginally ahead of Detroit and KC in the standings and who have FAR superior farm systems and are already in rebuild mode. In other words..... we're screwed.

We could lose 100 games and JR will not fire TLR and TLR will NOT resign. He's back in 2023. This just sucks.

The most depressing part (unlike real major league organizations) is there is ZERO chance TLR doesn't manage here again next year. He's got the "injuries to key players card" in his wallet and he'll play it after the season and JR will buy it. We can't suck enough for him to get fired or have the pride to quit. We're doomed with this guy.

For the love of God somebody on this coaching staff needs to show a heartbeat and get run tonight. Horrible strike zone, BS balk call, total lethargy from the HOFBP permeating the team. SHOW SOME F'ING LIFE!!!

When you have 3 automatic outs at the bottom of your lineup, that's what happens.

What's up with Liam? Was this a "load management" deal or does he have an issue?

Lopez getting the start tonight? Not talking about Nicki, I mean ReLo.

Getting their act together is the key. They've proven they can lose to many of those bad teams already this season.

There are sooooo many things wrong with this team, but including tonight they are hitting .088 (3 for 34) with the bases loaded. Think about that for a minute. If that doesn't speak to how inept we've been with the bats I don't know what does.

Worse

With our luck it's a tear and he's gone 2-3 months.

The only "take sign" Tony has given in 2 years was to Yermin and he ignored it. Tony decided that was enough of being ignored and went back to sleep.

David Ross thoroughly out-manging our HOF manager. Let that sink in a bit.

Not my banner...... I'm just old!

Not my banner...... I'm just old!

Stop insulting morons!

Other than TA and Vaughn, this team is filled with nothing but 8 and 9 hitters. Utter embarrassment. And of course, the genius manager leaves Ceuto out there an inning too long. This entire board has him out of the game after 6. What a fool.

TLR is an f'ing genius.

I sure hope your life insurance is fully paid. Someone in the stands could get kilt out there tonight.

If we miss the playoffs they will fire the hitting coach, the bullpen coach and maybe the assistant trainer. That's it! TLR is going nowhere. We have shown NO ability to play 21st century baseball (e.g. focus on OPS, launch angle, shifting, etc.). We have a team of DH's and "high floor, low ceiling draft picks designed to "win now". They won't blow anything up and there's no help on the way anytime soon from the lowest rated farm system in baseball. This team as constituted either figures it out or we're stuck in the mud because Jerry isn't buying us out of our troubles. P.S. The only way Hahn loses his job is if there is any truth to the wrongful termination lawsuit in which he's named. It won't be for performance.

Nah, c'mon. You're not serious. Did he really say the D didn't cost us the game? We gave them 30+ outs in 9 innings and probably another 30-40 pitches to play with.
