They have 3 base runners tonight.  That's the issue and has been all season. 

I think defense is the bigger issue at this point. Offense is brutal across the whole league. Can't be giving up extra runs, or any at all.

Sox have scored more than three runs just five times this year, and 3/5 of those games they scored four.  Pretty amazing that they're only 6-9 actually!

So true, if the ball stays this dead, the Sox are screwed with the way they’re constructed.

Like I said, this is what MLB wants. Hitters will have to adapt or get left behind. 

I think MLB sees the ball as perfect the way it is.

Man the Angels are going to come in here and wreck this team

10 fricken walks.   

10 walks? Fuck off.

Because one half of the slappy factory has to be in the lineup at all times?

Yeah, but defense is is really the only thing he brings. 

Just checking in. Has Menechino been fired yet?

I’ve turned off more Sox games so far than I normally do by mid-May.  Even the rebuilding years were more fun to watch because at least there was developing players.  This is just…shit.

You think the 12 thousand fans in the stadium will get a refund?

Menechino has been preaching patience and the Sox hitters can't do it. I don't think he's the problem. 

Did they try to use the ol cold weather excuse for the walks?  Can't grip the ball, wet grounds something...

Which is why it’s brilliant to DH him.  Gotta love 4D chess

For some reason, i'm thinking that they may play well against them.

So, Pollock, how are you enjoying the trade so far?

How are you enjoying paternity leave, which is what you are on with how you are playing?

He actually has their problems diagnosed perfectly.

And no Moncada Robert Jimenez just might have a small impact.

This feels more like a 2017-18 Sox game minus excitement for Moncada and Kopech.

Hey Elon, have you ever considered making an offer for a baseball team?

Not fun having the enjoyment sucked out of the season so early

Not with our current roster

There’s like 5 people in the stands behind home plate and 2 are working. 

Crazy how this team beat 2 plus 500 teams they faced this season but looked like dog shit versus mediocre teams...obviously that was before the injuries started. This team can not stay healthy.

I’ve seen some of the Cubs-Braves game tonight and it’s insane how little the ball carries.

Didn’t exactly play good in those wins. Got some good pitching but the hitting and bullpen weren’t good.

He already has one flop named “the boring company”.
