Honest question. Do you root against the Sox? 

We have one of the most famous posters here earlier in the thread wishing/hoping for a four game sweep to see what will happen to LaRussa.

Lay off.

The only way the stolen bases will stop is when they become an embarrassment to the organization.

Why the fuck should we cheer for such incompetency?

My Colt League teams didn’t make such fundamental mistakes.

Fucking fix that shit.

LaRussa is getting paid $3.5 million and 10-15% of this board could and would do a better job for free.

The Sox organizational philosophy of being so opposite field focused works a lot better when the ball is juiced

"2 outs for Sheets" says Benetti as I immediately grab the remote to watch literally anything else

The weird thing is that as bad as his defense and focus have been, his offense completely unaffected.

Can't wait for Colson, he can't come soon enough.

Pollock has been much better, but my god he pops up to the right side a ton.  Shades of Credepopsitup

Give him more chances to strike out Tony.

1 hit?

this feels like the stretch that will break the camel's back as far as contending goes. 

Anybody is an Ace against the Chicago Knights

Spencer Watkins likely to be the Orioles’ starter tmrw, if it even matters who they throw.

I was holding out hope (seemingly) longer than most, but it's broken me

could you combine the cubs' and sox' lineups to make a cromulent team?

Perfect comp.

Pop em up Joe was a thing

Hoping the timing is before the deadline and not after.

Not so fast, Guardians and Twins trailing.   Psychologically, it would be far easier to just move on instead of merely hanging around on the periphery of contention.

Other than that one huge comeback and Anderson in NY and Burger, this season has been unbearable.

you need to stop scoreboard watching. Unless the Sox can get to 88 wins it doesn't matter. We're on pace for 80.

Hold on now...if I'm going to help this shit show, I've got to be paid.

I'm going to raise my hand and throw in the towel on Gavin Sheets.

Have to admit when one is wrong, and boy did I get fooled by that short run last season. 

 

That was Kopech’s first strikeout 

Sheets somehow now has a loopy swing.

Rick is the one who decided which player to call up. Unless you think YLR follows the minors.

Yea I know! I'm wondering how he feels seeing that player sitting on the bench.

He probably loves it because he can further imply it’s Tony’s team and not his

Getting shutdown by more AAA caliber arms. it's who this team is.
