It was never a really good product most of the time. This is like the Veeck years of the 70's except you liked Veeck. JR-not so much,

I wonder how many people are interested in the game vs. interested in gambling.

LOL just LOL! When has the organization had any luck with position players. Sad what happened to Anderson. Drafting a non athletic 1B, small infielder who thought he was Ricky Henderson on he bases and with base running ability of Florence Henderson, Zack Collins, these choices have long term failure. They might revisit that everlasting hole in CF if they get rid of Robert. Plus the free agent market isn't what it use to be. More and more you see some established players without a contract entering Spring Training. I think with the larger amount of injuries you need a good farm just to have players being adequate to fill in while being developed. Instead of trying to get other team's prospects try getting their scouts. Maybe the Burger trade was their payback for JR choosing the manager. Maybe some of the incompetence is just to sabotage JR.

The other habitual losing small markets do this in hopes of the myth of a better tomorrow by trading a hopeful lightning in a bottle in July. So they traded a decent starter with another year left for................???????????????. Fans should fear this off season unless you can endure another decade of s%*# baseball. Follow the myth...follow the myth.

The habitual losing small market syndrome.

Unfortunately injuries don't always go away. LOL - Eloy is a knee jerk reaction. Play him everyday and also in the OF and see how that goes.

So far many have failed to see this. It's called fans can't have nice things. It started with Sports Vision. Trump the execs with the TLR hire, Next up is the myth of getting better by trading Crochet and Robert. You can't have nice things.

I don't think the fanbase is that patient. They do follow the pattern of small market habitual losing teams. Sometimes they get those people from those organizations.

Which conflicts with Reinsdorf's loyalty program.

Owners sort of do this.

Biggest myth in baseball, more so for a Sox fan. Trade deadline was a serious giveaway. There are teams though that need that one player or two that fall int the wait for next year approach with their farm.

Only if you are the Dodgers, Rays, Braves and they might do that trade 5 out of hindered . This organization isn't known recently for taking another prospect and improving on their weakness. They really didn't have a full time slot for him.

Must not be tuned into baseball much to make such a statement. Rare for a MLB team to win back to back WS. I find these are such ignorant statements. Rays and Dodgers should have won most of the WS in the past 5 years.

Just think even 94 wins = 3rd place.

I doubt that is possible.

I doubt Beckham knows

So when a team is bad you replace the manager. When your pen is even worse than top AA farms you keep the pitching coach. Katz is the new Daryl Boston.

It's not something you see everyday in baseball. Unfortunately the pen will blow this again.

He might do even worse damage in the offseason.

Just so the pen can match that amount

So it's his luck 0 after 4 vs. pen making sure the game is out of reach Looks like Grifol hasn't left.

Why was Flexxen only in for 4? Is it so the pen can't increase that loss total?

Existing on this roster is done well.

Trade deadline alone tells you. Wait till the offseason if he trades. So it's not really fiction if you were bad at your job you will get promoted

How many GMs would keep their job after trading 3 ML players and getting 3 ? That doesn't even deserve a WTF!
