This year has been pretty alarming to see how apathetic Sox fans are

Its not just this season. The Twins and Guardians will dominate the central for the foreseeable future. They understand the importance of advanced scouting, invest in minor league coaching, and apply analytics to all their levels. Its a well oiled machine for sure. Have an injury? Here comes a fundamentally sound baseball player to take his place. Oh, they hit home runs too. The Sox believe in TWTW, nepotism, the worst farm system in baseball, belittling their fans, telling their hitters to "go get em", foregoing defense and fundamentals, and holding on to old traditional baseball philosophy. "Just hit it where they aint, dont do too much". The window is closing quick and we will return to the dark ages. What kind of future do the Sox have here? Not a good one considering how far back they are in how the game is evolving. KC will give us a run for last place, if theres an organization as lost as us its them. Forgive the hopeless rant, this wasnt what i was expecting after suffering through the 2010s. All for nothing.

The Twins are going to dominate the central for this whole decade. Their organization is very well run and they are one of the leading analytical teams.

0-5 vs the Twins

Im really close to taking a sox fandom hiatus until Jerry dies/sells and the team. Hopefully we get a good owner who spends money on decent coaching throughout the farm and at the big league level. I cant take it anymore, the triple play is just the icing on the cake for how bad this team is and im tired of the nightly embarassments.

0-4 against the twins this season

Just low baseball iq on this team

Please hit a fucking home run

Menechino magic at work tonight

Is it luck if it involves the same injuries and for multiple years?

They really need to retool. Tell TLR he is going to call it quits after this season. Find a manager from outside the org, maybe the AA or AAA coach in the Astros system. Something like that. Get a hitting director to find an analytical approach that can be taught at all levels of the minors. Do the same for pitching. Replace all the "stats are for nerds" FO guys with analytical ones. Replace Getz with someone who understands both. Fire Duncan for someone who actually took a math class before. Trade Abreu, Pollock at the deadline. Get what you can. Listen on offers for Giolito. Assess the trainers, what the fuck are they doing? Not doing? Fire Menechino twice and Howie yesterday. Take a pillow and smother Jerry while hes sleeping. Call it a natural death. See if Cuban wants to own a baseball club. 2023 would look bright if the above happened.

He wanted to keep Leury fresh for when hes up in a big spot in the postseason.

If this is true i nominate it for the post of the gamethread.

Could this just be the pains of minor league life and being away from home for what, 4 years? Id feel like a damn slave too living like that

He lurks here 100%

If its a physical issue then hopefully with rest and the right conditioning he can get back to that. Hes what, 27? I really hope thats the case because the dude should be in his absolute prime

If it isn't important then why are top analytics teams trying to steal away the Astros minor league hitting coaches? Why do the Twins have multiple hitting coaches? Why is big money being spent by the Yankees, Dodgers, Astros, Giants, Braves, Cardinals, Red Sox (perennial contenders) on guys who can coach hitters to follow an organizational hitting philosophy?

ouch, hes just not who you want up in these situations i guess

LEURY MVP

we shut them down after a good offensive inning! WE ARE BACK

Love how the Japanese adverts come up when Ohtani steps in
