It’s just astonishing this is the fucking product we’re seeing on the field given where this team was to end last year.  My six year old could have put together a better team on MLB The Show.

Watching this team without Yoan should make people appreciate him more once he's back, but of course it won't

I certainly will. He drives me nuts sometimes though. 

 

For the love of god, don't give Ramirez something good to hit

Ballgame? 

Welp...

Plesac is throwing some of the worst change-ups I've ever seen

Consequently Cease has hung about 5 pitches today

Welp, that's game

Yep and the season is over too. I'm rooting for a complete rebuild. 

Welp...

We got swept. We ain't scoring 2.

That "hit" Sheets couldn't get to looms large now.

Game over

I wish Eloy would elevate the ball like that

Dumbest fucking organization. 

Every team in baseball turns SS's into utility players except the Sox.  They think first baseman can be utility players.  

That probably doesn't happen if we had an actual RFer playing RF

They don't miss them we foul them back or watch them go by

that's about where I'm at. I know teams run hot and cold but that this is the talent we're seeing on a daily basis and this is the quality of play is pathetic.

At least they shifted against someone successfully

Cease can’t be missing that pitch to Reyes like he did on a day without his big fastball. And yes, Sheets finally contributes two runs!!

Even Vaughn would have made that catch, I think

Too late to trade Eloy for a lefty bat with control?

Remember me writing to you about Eloy ?

Engel definitely would have. 

With all the talent this team has, you would think they would be better than this. They look like they haven’t been their before.

I had a similar thought, but that was 96 at the knees. You don't want to throw anything over the middle 1st pitch in that spot, but it wasn't the worst pitch imaginable or anything

They’re so far from being a legit WS contender.
