    If the Sox manage to string together a good 15-20 games, are you back on board? They've looked a lot better this series. 

    Back on board with what exactly? Even if they win 15 of the next 20 they're still 8 games under .500. This team isn't competing for anything. Only thing they're competing against is the worst record of all time.

    One of the few good moves by the Reinsdork regime was realizing that Abreu’s career was waning and they didn’t re-sign him.

    Yeah but they spent that money on Benintendi instead and it's not like that's working out any better. Not saying re-signing him would have been right but it's not like the FO was competent enough to spend that money any better.

    Nothing about this roster is a 60 win team. That's such a massive stretch. The talent is horrendous. Grifol isn't costing them 20 wins, lol. 

    Fine 55 wins. Losing Robert and Moncada for half the season probably puts them down to 50. 40 wins is also looking like a pipe dream if they keep playing like this.

    The Sox are bad.  On paper, they are a bad team but not this bad.  At this point, a change is needed.  I can't imagine any other team sticking with the manager after this type of start.

    One of my biggest concerns is Grifol being the manager when some of the prospects come up.  He can't, just can't, be involved with the talent coming up.

    He took a team that was probably a 75 win team talent wise last year and led them to a 100 loss season. This year it's a 60 win team and he's leading them towards a 40 win season. At this point it's pretty clear that he's a big reason for why this team sucks so historically bad.

    the longer this goes on, the louder the voices that Jerry is trying to ignore will become, can't avoid them forever, not when you're this bad

    They've got a former MLB manager that actually had success as bench coach. You have to shake things up. They are bad but they are not this bad. At some point the blame is on Pedro for making just about everyone play like they belong in AA.
