6 runs wasn't enough last night 16 would be ideal to use Castillo, he'd still turn it into a save situation

I still think of 2006 where the Tigers were running away with the division and here comes the Twins. Back then winning 90 games couldn't do it.

even below mediocre pitching is expensive if one is not using the Sox yardstick

Playing in Japan isn't an easy move to MLB in the first year. There plenty of failures we ignore.

I'm done, checkin out until they win again. I'll watch other baseball instead. This is too much. They can't be throwing games like this. Not having nice things is the pattern of being a Sox fan. Hopefully they don't mess this up.

traded for an easy waiver wire dude He'd be fine on a team tankin for the 1st round pick

Everything points to a weak farm system

we need that this thread blows meme

listening to Twins broadcast some stats even I don't believe about the Sox pen since June 23. One of the best in baseball.

true, Brewers seem to have a magic wand the Sox don't

Still amazed at the Brewers who don't have household names, even I can't name a player but the ones they traded or became free agents and they still play a great 162 season.

my point is our expectations are not often realistic with young players.

We treat young players in baseball with the same expectations as those in the NFL, NBA. I always wondered if Mickey Mantle got the same treatment. I remember in 2023 Cub fans would take Robert over PCA.

yet those 2 NL Central teams worry me. They are not AL bad.

the Sox truly did

still amazed that this team has not yet had a serious losing streak like Cubs proportions. Noe only if they could have a winning streak Red Sox style.

you picked out one player to a post that was not about one player unless I read it wrong

well he is new to facing MLB pitchers

not an acceptable excuse since they all play 162 but it also reveals a poor farm system, he was once in charge of that

kids Amazes me though they are still winning games and not looking good at it. More lucky than good.

a win today would be nice with a 4 1/2 game cushion

It would make sense if they were not in a playoff race.

they have let to lose something like 6 in a row either

everyone move back to the ledge, single file please I don't think Detroit is the threat now but the other 2

trade frenzy is a mental illness from being a fan of a habitual losing organization. This seems more exclusive to baseball than any other sport. Applying the baseball model to the NFL and it wouldn't work very well. It doesn't take long for the knee jerk reactions when a player has a disappointing moment for one to use the word trade. We somehow think a GM doesn't see the same things we do. Baseball is the least predictable sport. Yet we don't treat it that way. You would think organizations would also realize the sport has become more injury prone. Working players at other positions would seem to be a good idea in the minors. I think it would sort out players who have a high baseball IQ. Most teams draft OF and SS since those are usually the mot athletic players. It wasn't long ago we bragged about the Sox being strong at catcher. What more evidence does one need to know this is the least predictable sport. I think any organization that is strong at catcher is more of a myth.
