Is sitting Pollock really make this a trash lineup? It’s basically what we’ve seen all season. Giving Eloy a day is fine. I don’t want to see Leury any more than anyone else, but this isn’t an egregious lineup.

I don’t think I’m gonna watch this one. And I don’t know that I can say I’ve missed an entire Sox game when it was accessible (not a plane; or without service) in several years.

The core is probably fine but obviously needs supplementing, most notably a couple good handed bats that play defense well.

Nah. I’d prefer his ass get fired. The ball club needs a spark. A new voice. I feel like firing him could ignite something. Tonight felt different; like maybe it’s possible. It felt like a rock bottom moment.

Fire Tony!

Fire Tony

This is is the guy that almost lost us a game booting back to back plays in the bottom of the 9th. I love Jose. He’s great. He’s a gamer. But he’s not perfect either.

Nice. Now start playing like an all star again.

Is putting him on the 60 day IL and then cutting him the day after the world series more palatable to you? Because that was the other option.

Lol people will look for anything to get worked up about. This is just the way the game works. Burr was no surviving the winter on the 40 man anyhow. Sox still pay for all his medical care. Really nothing changes. Its a bummer he got hurt, and I feel for the dude, but this is a nothingburger.

Ehhh. I don't think it needs to be that strong. Get to the start of the Twins series 4-5 GB, and see what happens.

I, for one, hope they win the next three. I would like to watch entertaining baseball the next 3 months.

In other news, I think you gotta change the "Hawk" emjoi title to "you gotta be bleepin' me".

I don't believe that. IF that was the case, why doesn't he allow the baseball people in charge make the baseball decisions? Like I dunno....hiring and firing the manager.

A lefty on the mound, so maybe we have a chance. Look forward to seeing how Tony fucks this one up tonight.

I can't for the life of me believe that JR is happy with the state of the club or satisfied with where Tony has these guys playing. Tony is costing his organization money at the gate, and missing the playoffs in a season which the Sox certainly expected to be there will mean a significant drop in projected revenues. TLR is also, in theory, impacting the value of the organization because I truly believe that most in the Sox FO and ownership believed this core would be an annual playoff team contending for WSs from 2020-2025 and beyond. Right now, that is looking far less likely than it looked the day TLR was hired. You can't tell me that the Sox making 5 straight playoffs with a couple WS appearances and perhaps a title wouldn't measurable increase the valuation of the organization. That absolutely has to matter to JR. We can all hate the guy and call him names and rightfully so, but he didn't get to where he is in life being a dumbass. He's old, and like his buddy TLR, certainly isn't as sharp as he once was...but I don't believe for a second that he doesn't care. At some point, enough has to be enough. I doubt they fire TLR in-season, but if the Sox miss the playoffs, I cannot image they'd allow him to come back as a lame duck manager that has completely killed all momentum the org had.

Well you can blame him for pinch hitting Leury to lead off the 9th instead of Zavala. That move make absolutely ZERO sense. You can also blame him for gift wrapping the Tigers their 2nd run in the top half of the 9th with just brutal managing. Banks should have never have been in there, but you certainly cannot keep him in to face Tork, nor should you have even pitched to Tork. Just brutal.

If we’ve gained no ground in the Central between now and a week from Sunday.

Fire Tony!!!

All you can do this laugh.

AMAZING

Love is a b****

Zzzzzzzz

It was an ugly route but you take it. The bar to clear is awfully low .

Nice catch from AJ. Still so hard for my to wrap my head around their complete and utter avoidance of him playing RF for 2 months.
