Even if they come back it's not worth watching

What else do we have to do, we love to inflict pain on ourselves. 

Jimmy Lambert ..... WTF after spending all that money....NO fucking urgency

Is it really talent anymore if some of these guys have lost their physical ability?

I think Grandal is the only guy who appears to have totally lost his ability.  I’m not sure what’s going on with Giolito, but maybe he’s not going to return to form this year.  But I think a different manager & hitting coach get a lot more out of these guys and in this shitty division a few more games would have us in 1st place.

When does the NFL preseason games start

I love the Sox…not baseball.  This team makes it hard to want to watch them, but I’ll never switch over to the Cubs or another team.  I’ll just find other things to do with my team until football season starts.

This season has made me a bigger fan of baseball than the Sox, but I just can’t quit this shitty org...

Giolito and Yoan are clearly not the same players physically they were in the past.   Giolito hasn’t had his fastball all season. Everyone keeps saying how talented they are but look at these lineups every day…way too much mediocrity compared to true contenders.

Bruce Bochy would’ve been a better choice.

2005 was great wasn't it.

I will be watching the Sox going forward every 5th game or whenever  Cease is scheduled.

San Fran invests in player and coaching development, and Bochy was my choice at the time.

“It’s nights like tonight if you’re a fan of the south sliders that make you want to pull your hair out. They just don’t hit for power.” - FS1 I think Karros

Yes it was Karros.  He said Sox 26 th out of 30 teams in homers.  He pretty much wrote off the Sox. Said Sox are the worst defensive team in the AL..  He also said the Sox were underestimating a hungry Royals team coming into this series.

Lambert doesn’t have near the stuff or command he has had recently 

We need a new manager. Someone that can light a fire under this team and doesn’t give a shit if your a rookie or a veteran. Someone that will play his best players everyday. We have a manager that doesn’t do any of that.

So we have Kelley and Graveman sitting while a rookie pitches the 8th inning.  OK TLR.

It keeps getting worse in different ways.  It’s only been like 3 days since a bad injury…another is coming soon I’m sure.

He knows with this offense it's an insurmountable lead.

We should be so lucky to have a manager with that kind of insight.

Hahn should be on the Managers phone telliing TLR to put in one of his two prized offseason additions.  I watched Moneyball recently and Billy was in his managers face repeatedly for not playing his players.

Hahn should save that phone call and call Jerry he’s quitting

I tried to be positive after the deadline. It’s over. 

Insurmountable lead may be an understatement. 

FS1 bashing the Sox, and rightfully so

They are poorly managed and the use of resources on this roster was pathetically deployed. But really a no power shit defensive team - not a good combination. Quite frankly I have no idea how a team with poor power can be slow and shitty defensively…it’s like the absolute worse extreme of roster construction. 
 

So done with everyone associated with putting this together from top all the way down.

God anyone just conduct a real search and at least try to get it right.
