We say it all the time, but not sure how long they can wait to acquire a LF upgrade. 

If Mitch Haniger is available right now, Hahn should get the trade done before today's game ends. There is no margin for error with this team right now.

You almost never see a major leaguer swing at a pitch that high, well guess what...

Marwin Gonzalez just did it to end the previous inning.  Only the Guerreros Jr. and Sr. can/could hit that.

Need to get out of this without a run given up

Robert didn’t expect that ball to carry so well and so quickly...slight misread.  Those balls hit right at or over you in the cold weather are tough, though.

 

Then he compounds the error by making a bad throw home.

If much of any "should haves" were to have happened by now this team would be in a much better spot. Tip of the iceberg. All they had to do was spend a little extra money.

7 for 51, 17 K's

That is what we're getting from Collins and Vaughn.

 

And like that, a 2 out run. Man, that must be nice.

Did that seem like a lazy effort from Robert on the throw in?

This looks like a 500 team.

Well thats the ball game.

0-2 pitch 

That's probably game.  Must be nice getting a 2 out hit with risp.

Young players take time

Our bullpen is not even average right now...obviously, the defense hasn’t helped much, either.

Should have hit the cutoff. Wasn't getting that guy and allowed guy to reach second by throwing home directly. 

This team is so frustrating 

Need your CF to be able to make that a play at the plate on a slow C running. Bad play by Robert

We are going to be shut down by a garbage boston bullpen

Not lazy, just bad form...was a bit off balance.

Gotta score runs against this Boston team...2 runs ain't gonna win you many

The Sox are 1-6 in games decided by 3 runs or less. Continuing to blow leads and lose game that essentially come down to bullpen vs bullpen is completely untenable.

This has been the consistent feeling of this team for over a decade now; a single run deficit going into the late innings is enough to feel insurmountable. All too familiar and so far this year hasn't changed.

People have to understand why it's so hard to be positive.

That and you should make it possible to be cut off so the infielders can decide to take out the trail runner...

The offense has been dog shit as well.  

Still have confidence we can tag this bad Boston bullpen for at least one HR.
