  1. It is indeed a lot to overcome. One or two of these flaws might not be a major hinderance, but all of them together and a drunk/asleep at the wheel "manager"? Hard to see this talented mess going very far w/o some serious luck.
  2. Yeah those phone fingers might speak more truth than my conscious brain?.
  3. Time for Gio to be an ace and shut this shit down. No more losing streaks.
  4. Being in shape has never really been Moncada’s problem, unlike Eloy. Lumping them together like that maybe says more about the poster than the player.
  5. That series late 2020 when the Sox clinched and were in first place, then absolutely got destroyed in Cleveland sticks in my head after last night. I don’t know if there is a direct connection but more times that not it seems they shrivel in the big moments vs Cleveland. The hubris of the organisation is on full display. The walking corpse of TLR being forced on everyone, the lack of depth, lighting stacks of cash on fire around the margins while never paying up for difference makers, handing Leury a 3 year deal, thinking Gavin freaking Sheets was a viable RF option and not grabbing any proven bats. The list goes on. The roots go all the way to the chairman and down to the FO. I don’t know how the same people responsible for the mess fix their own mess.
  6. Being physically present in the dugout while half drunk and half awake doesn’t necessarily equate to managing the game.
  7. Either? Both? IDK. There is definitely something mental when they shrivel up vs Cleveland though.
  8. This unraveling came all to easily and is why the win streak didn’t inspire much confidence that they had solved their issues. I don’t mean to be overly hyperbolic but when one mistake snowballs and leads to the comedy of errors we saw last night, something might be deeply wrong with a team.
  9. Graveman-? Bummer - IL Crochet - IL Reynaldo - who knows how long back spasms keep him out. Drawing a blank if anyone else is nursing anything.
