Overpaying relievers on the open market and drafting relievers. It makes you want to cry.

I did peruse the upcoming FAs and no C's. Would be the worst if we have to mash Robert-Judge-Colas into some terrible pun like Berdgelas

I'd definitely say it was a problem that after Davis Martin's surprise performance the next best pitchers in AAA and AA were all 35 year old milb free agents taking cortisone shots in their shoulders nightly.

Need a CF whose last name starts with C so we could have an R C Colas outfield.

I didn't realize they sent Broadway out in this trade.

I think we've had a lot of good posts and run downs of just the incredible complacency and lack of accountability from the sox front office. But watching players like Narvaez becoming good catchers by working with a different org, or Semien, or watching the Braves hire Ron Washington and win a world series... while you have seen piss poor defense since 2013 and continue to run out the same coaching staff. It's just mind boggling. There is so little to lose budget-wise, and you are competing for a world series, yet ignoring the small things that can help. Just lazy idiots.

Has anyone seen anything about him starting to throw again? I feel like now is the time when we'd see "first throws", for example, there was video of Tanner MacDougal (our fifth round pick in 2021 who had TJS in April) throwing long toss.

Yes, our players in their primes all looked like late-career broken down vets, and our late career vets like grandal looked like they had one foot in the grave. This despite us never pushing them very hard over the last two years. Meanwhile the players we obviously needed to manage playing time for (rodon/kopech last year, kopech this year) they just blissfully pushed as if there was no limit in site and surprise surprise they were complete shells of themselves in the last month or two or shut down.

Seems like they got better when certain players went on the IL so I unno man. The difference in the AL to me is some organizations aren't in denial of what they are, and some are.

I had dall-e draw me a picture of what Rick Hahn looked like this morning

easiest gutpunch would be to lose tonight. Biggest gut punch would be to go 2-1 where we win the first two.

Good luck to this team. I appreciate the effort from Cueto, Cease, Andrus and Romy. I hope for Cueto, Cease, Abreu this team can make us a memory. Also twins are absolute trash lmao 1-7 in your division showdown lmao

Man the twins are ?

Congrats to the twins. The suckiest bunch of sucks that have ever sucked.

It was kinda nice watching the twins choose between so many terrible batters after Leon's injury. Really made me feel like there were other teams out there like ours.

double play. The twins did a double switch, were definitely trying, but all were terrible hitters so who cares. If I were them I'd have just told him not to swing and gotten to arraez these dudes sucked.

I'm wrong, it's Caleb Hamilton batting and Cleveland now replaced Quantrill.

bases loaded, 1out after an HBP. just no double plays and Arraez can come up. As is, it's down to Sandy Leon. Who sucks.

2 on, 1 out for the Twins.

lol jake cave in play, no out

4-3 lets goooooo

2 of 3 probably only works if cleveland loses today. if we are 4 games back, getting to 3 games back isn't enough.

Dang are the guardians wearing yankees jerseys this weekend?

yep, kinda nice to have the clarity though.

That sucked. I really would like to see Fields completely own our offense. That said, it was obviously a touchdown. So eat s%*#, zebras.
