Seriously though, someone has to get fired soon, right?

Until we start hitting, maybe it should not be called the heart of the order....maybe the spleen or the appendix?

It takes a lot of hitting to overcome a starting staff that most have an era over 5.  Maybe the Yankees Murderer's Row.

I don't deny that, but you have to admit that the offense has been pretty craptastic since the All Star break as well.

They’re doing a great job of completely wiping out the excitement they built up during the first half 

WOW.

Renteria can’t be let go fast enough

He's about 5th  in line of those who  should be deposed.

I guess we got fooled again.

Don’t disagree, Cooper and Hahn are bigger issues.

The one excuse the Sox organization keeps using to explain the slump is that Timmy being out has hurt them on and off the field.  That is such crap and it’s disappointing to hear guys like Stone continue to repeat it.

I go with ownership as #1.

That's one task in which Hahn excels:  spinning out the excuses.

Failed to cover first on a bunt.  Lol

I seem to remember if we won out our last 4 games before the break, we would have the same record as the Cubbies....I dreamt that right?!??

But coming up in the 8th inning, stay tuned for an exciting segment where Benetti asks Yolmer what is his favorite vegetable.

SMDH

I just want to say something positive, so I think the Sox still win this one!!!

Right now those segments are the best part of the last six games so keep it up, I don't mind

At this point they have to know the're going to non-tender him this offseason.  Stop running him out there every damn day.

"Jicama, huh.  That's an interesting choice from the root vegetable family.  You ever have a Jicama, Stoney?"

Oh please, they will tender him and keep him around as Madrigal’s “mentor”

I prefer the “stay tuned for an exciting Sox comeback” commercial heading into the 9th of an 11-0 game 

Yolmer is getting to the point of be inexplicable. He should be with Castillo on the way out.
