They really REALLY need to win this game. As sad as that sounds.

Can we as a fan base stop with this? Every time another team releases some overpaid bad player, "maybe the sox should sign him" ... is this how we've been conditioned? To be ok with 3rd rate castoffs from better run orgs?

Last season someone on soxtalk posted a screenshot of him versus AL 1B, even though he was playing in the OF, and it was just as bad.

edit: words are hard

It didn't matter. When using his fWAR compared to the rest of AL 1B, he was in the bottom 1/3rd.

Welcome to Soxtalk.

TA doin the whole "2003 K'nerko" thing now

Tip of the cap to Scholtens. Sox gonna get goosed by a AAAA team.

Because he's pretentious as f***?

You're not wrong though.

They probably penciled him in for 12-15 HRs but yea, 700 OPS from your biggest signing EVER is... a bad look.

Days like today happen to orgs with shortsighted front offices. RickyGM knew Davis Martin was hurt but went into the season with 4.5 starters on the depth chart anyway.

Why did you have to go there? Why??

This is a throw away bullpen game on a team not built to have bullpen games. If they win its a coup. If a reliever doesn't go on the DL today, its a W.

I'm surprised Grifol didn't pitch Lambert until his arm fell off. Half his season ERA should be charged to Grifol.

The Sox are never gonna learn to put away a team. They ALWAYS give away the getaway game.

Dude hit some majestic homers in Charlotte. The good news is he isn't a 1B/DH being asked to play OF.

the Royals are really bad.

and TA's ops drops below 600. Bat speed be gone. Those biomechanics classes really paid off!

This is what a closing window looks, sounds and feels like.

Will this team learn to put away a team, like... ever this season?

Who can we blame Jake Marisnick on

I honestly think there's something going on fans don't know. There's gotta be a reason he's still in AAA. Or am I bargaining with it too much?

0-2 right down the middle.
