Sorry my streak comes to an end. You know it shouldn’t have and why it did. f*** this fucking team. Idiots had a chance to sweep and said nah. Fucking prick motherfuckers.
If he wanted to play, he should be playing. Ridiculous move. They win three games in a row, have a chance to sweep the team they’re trying to catch, and your starting shortstop sits? This is not baseball.
Colas was never a sure thing, and it’s not the end of the world if they send his 50 OPS+ down to get his bat going. The Sox are in the fight of their life this month if they have any hope of getting back in it. Unfortunately, we just have to be patient and watch them fail over the next 5 weeks before they do anything.
Like I said yesterday, if I’m a player or coach showing up today, I’m thanking the baseball gods for the AL Central and treating today like it’s opening day. The next 32 are not that bad. They either win and stay or lose and get traded (or fired). If they get it together, 20-12 is not out if the question and they’ll be comfortably in the single digit games back with 100 left. This is me if I’m in uniform.
As a fan, I’m not as optimistic. It’s put up or shut up time.
Sosa was optioned yesterday.
I would assume the starting point for roster moves is him and Romy traded out for TA and Alberto. Lopez is probably hitting the IL too. Colas should be sent down to play. Katz should be fired.
