That’s a pathetic OPS for someone who is as terrible defensively and on the bases as he is. I never predicted the injuries within the first 10 games, but I absolutely said that we all know the bust brothers (Eloy and Yoan) would get injured during the year and that Robert is no sure thing. The ironic thing is you keep saying how some of these guys are so good, yet the Sox were eager to trade Eloy (and knew no one in their right mind would want Yoan for 25 million). I feel it’s the same thing that some of us said about Tim Anderson early on last season.

Vaughn was a career negative fWAR player coming into the year. By no means is he someone that should have been relied upon. I have no idea how Benintendi just lost all ability to hit the ball hard. I would joke that he stopped juicing after the big contract, but he never looked like a big guy.

When you have 1/3 of your lineup going into the season that are strictly in it to play defense and give no offensive value, you deserve to have a bad offense. Instead of just blaming JR or Hahn or Getz, why can’t we all say they all absolutely suck?

You expected this to finally be the year they all stayed healthy?

I feel bad for him, he has to try so hard to generate excitement since the team is so boring

The warning signs were there with the injury to the 2-3-4 guys looming. But yeah, this is ridiculous.

“But he has no position!!!”….yet one of the smartest front offices found a role for him

It’s so sad that Grifol is still employed. Like good lord, have some pride and fire the guy.

It’s absolute hell with no changes happening until Jerry dies.

It’s called not major league caliber vs major league pitchers

This was rock bottom for Vaughn. Time to send him down.

Nashville wants nothing to do with this team. They want a new franchise.

He also wants to insulate himself with “yes men”

They all suck, but that’s also why Getz and Grifol should have been fired last year as well.

Getz also couldn’t wait to get some of these guys. The Bummer trade was the first transaction any team made I believe, and then DeJong was early in the process as well.

Way higher chance to rejuvenate his career than these bums

Agreed

There is no doubt in my mind that when Getz met with Jerry last year after the firings, Jerry complained to him about the bad defense and Getz agreed to go away from the slugger/bad defense approach.

I would have liked them to sign Amed Rosario for cheap, as he’s only 28 and was good two years ago.

Maldonado, Lopez, Flexen, Hill, DeJong and Leone sucking was the most predictable thing ever. I think we all would have been shocked if they didn’t suck.

Seeing AJP absolutely destroy the Sox today was awesome
