I don't know I'm not really paying that close of attention to be honest. The season is 50% over. Half the guys you figured you'd get 20 WAR out of you're gonna get 5 if you're luck. There's your 15 wins between 75 and 90 right there. Season's over unless half a dozen guys start playing better all at once without the bottom falling out elsewhere. Doesn't seem likely to me. Maybe 1/3 they make some noise and push for 88 wins. The other 2 times it's 75 to 82 wins.

the players get paid to win or lose so they need to suck it up and go out and perform. it's not a rah rah sport which is why KW's "talk" yesterday seemed so stupid to me. It's a "keep an even keel" sport and other than Jose the Sox don't have many of those types. We have a bunch of headcases and our coaching stuff is out to lunch on how to get the most out of these guys. As for the fans: good, I hope they are playing in front of 5K in August if they keep losing. Fuck ownership.

No, don't boycott Soxtalk, christ. I don't see a lot of water carriers here.

SELL SELL SELL

luck plays a big factor when you're not good enough to hit a lot of 3 run homers.

Right, theres' a little known rule that if you have a really good player you can elect to have them play two position (so Leury will be SS and 2B) and also bat twice.

that's like the difference between a new car or struggling to pay rent for a guy like that. Happy for all the fringe guys that get a shot, even in a down season for the Sox.

A double loss today would pretty much confirm what we all know. A double win just prolongs the purgatory.

I bet he retires if the Sox miss the playoffs.

hate is a strong word but I hate this team.

what a fucking joke. click.

more great positioning.

god damnit.

terrible positioning.

terrible ABs.

Right, the LaRoche Sale teams were known for their rock solid leadership. This whole report is dumb. Underachieving teams have bad chemistry, more at 11.

It doesn't matter one bit. Stone is right on this one. Win some fucking games.

Exit velocity of 112 max, is holding his own as a youngster in his league, and is apparently a LEGIT MLB projectable SS? Great draft pick so far, could still flame out but to get a top 60 asset out of that spot as of today is great.

Lotta horse shit players too.

BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOurns.

Friday night mid summer and not exactly a must watch squad. I myself am just box score watching and bullshitting with you fine folks

I fucking love the hawk sticker. we just need a "you gotta be bleepin' me" button now.

I'd be totally fine making him manager tmr.

There's zero cohesion and communication on the coaching staff, and that includes the trainers. It can't be a "lost in translation" thing because Jose never seems to have any problems knowing how to communicate when he's hurt and when he's sore. I remember ReyLo had a silly tough guy moment a couple years ago as well where he hurt himself trying to tough it out. Those things just shouldn't happen it's 2022 there's so much science and money in this sport you have to be able to have a open and useful line of communication with every guy on staff and every player -- on injuries, life, everything.
