March 30, 20188 yr Reality check for the day... When two kinda crappy teams play each other, one of them has to win. Last year, the Sox went 13-25 vs the Indians and Twins and 10-24 against other playoff teams... 23-49 in those 72 games, and 44-46 in the other 90. This year, they have 64 games against last year’s postseason teams. Let’s see if there is an improvement.
March 30, 20188 yr QUOTE (Tony @ Mar 30, 2018 -> 12:25 PM) Remember when the Sox started the 2016 season at 19-8? The ended the season 78-84. Those weren't #RickysBoys

March 31, 20188 yr QUOTE (Jenksy Cat @ Mar 30, 2018 -> 09:29 PM) Yep, also cost us Tatis Jr. Ugh. Sox lost Tatis Jr. because the GM traded him in a stupid move. Why does Hahn get such a free pass on here? If you are being serious, I would be amazed. It's a stretch to blame the Sox for starting quickly and the GM thinking he was adding a piece for the playoffs. I blame the guy who made the trade.

March 31, 20188 yr Hahn went pretty in depth on the Tatis trade this morning. Give it a listen when it's up. http://podbay.fm/show/398083094
March 31, 20188 yr QUOTE (hi8is @ Mar 31, 2018 -> 06:51 AM) Shields had KW written all over it. I should have said the front office then, my bad. I just don't get the connection between winning and trading Tatis. It's a screwup but not because of the W/L record. People made the decision to deal him.
April 1, 20188 yr Any MLB.tv users out there able to find highlights of games? Last year there were a bunch for each game and now all I can do is watch the whole game.

April 2, 20188 yr QUOTE (Quin @ Apr 1, 2018 -> 02:24 AM) Don't you...hate relying on prospects? Yep. He flips often.
April 2, 20188 yr QUOTE (Tony @ Mar 30, 2018 -> 11:25 AM) Remember when the Sox started the 2016 season at 19-8? The ended the season 78-84. Didn't we start 23-10 and were a blown lead away from 24-10? I remember that was the game that crashed our ship immediately.
April 2, 20188 yr QUOTE (Quin @ Apr 1, 2018 -> 08:24 AM) Don't you...hate relying on prospects? I'm a Sox fan so I go along with what the team wants to do. The difference is I issue blame where I see it. And Shields was the wrong veteran pitcher to add. Why? He stinks IMO, advanced stats be darned.

April 2, 20188 yr I had to look...they still have the Sox and Tigers both going 68-94. https://www.fangraphs.com/depthcharts.aspx?...ition=Standings G The Sox won't be a .500 team...don't get me wrong. Barring huge injuries, they will win over 70, and the Tigers are losing over 100.
April 2, 20188 yr What's Hawks schedule in the booth this year? I thought he was still doing road games, but I seem to be wrong.
April 2, 20188 yr QUOTE (LittleHurt05 @ Apr 2, 2018 -> 12:02 PM) What's Hawks schedule in the booth this year? I thought he was still doing road games, but I seem to be wrong. This Thursday, home Sundays, and the entire Cubs series at home.
