Carson! I am rooting for you kid.

Carson has got it going on.

 

That guy finally got a good hack at it but that 83-ish breaking ball is tight

Look at Fulmer out there, throwing nothing but strikes, and getting hitters out....what a novel concept!

Solid.

Cooper looks like death warmed over.

OK, 3 innings to get 3 runs, with no Snell..

This IS the team we have, and will have for the near future.

Not sure how old you are  but if you have been around to have lived through this entire near 40 yr regime, you'd be a tad pissed out too.

I was a Sox fan before Reinsdorf and I'll be one when he mercifully is no longer associated with this enterprise..

I want the next owner to be young, aggressive and highly affluent !!!

Getting Snell out after 6 innings feels like a real accomplishment

Every time Eloy is up, he's already down 0-2.

The first team I remember rooting for is the southside hitmen.  If you have been pissed off for 40 years about things, you have much bigger problems.

was thinking the same thing. Reminds me of Yoan 2017.

Attaboy, Eloy! Always nice when you don't have to worry about that Snell curve to bottom you out on a swing.

So as soon as Eloy gets a hit they do some fucking promo for Snell?  Great job!  Really couldn't even spend the time talking about Eloy's excellent hit tool and how he went up to get that one?

I understand where you are coming from, but the playoffs ain't happening this year. The Sox got no pitching. Can't win games without good pitching. 

I'm just focusing on guys like Anderson, Moncada, and Jimenez. They are the only guys in the starting lineup who should be on the team two years from now.

Which means the next owner is going to have to spend some bucks to augment the players they have if we plan on contending during the next decade.

If there was an award in MLB for getting fans' hopes up and then crushing them to smithereens, the Sox would win that award every single year.

Why is James McCann on this team?

Too many holes in this lineup, but we knew that.

LMAO bunting with two outs down three runs.

And of course you missed the point of what I was saying. Doesn't matter, though. I'm use to the hostility on this site.

Everyone wants this team to win.

The only people that are in a real position to do anything about it don"t give a damn.

And until that dynamic changes it is what it is.

There was really no reason for hopes to be up, though.  I was hopeful about a week ago because I am always hopeful to start the season...but we all knew this team would suck. 

Shocked Fulmer is still in.
