Math time:

if Cleveland goes 21-21 with one win vs the Sox, we have to play .600 ball the final 40 to pass them. Something we can’t do apparently. 

I would be surprised if they play .500 ball. That seems to be a lot to ask for

The Sox couldn't even play .600 ball against some of the worst teams in baseball during a 19 game stretch.

And then the team miraculously stays in the race somehow. But they don't ever do enough to take control of the division or go on any prolonged runs that make you think they're good. This season really has been the equivalent of baseball hell. 

It’s why I said earlier that Robert will tear his ACL or Cease will blow out his arm.  It would be the perfect way to ruin next year during the worst year ever.

This game was a perfect microcosm of the season and the rot that pervades the whole organization. Just awful.

We keep doubling down on the same mistakes and somehow then expect a better outcome.

Catcher, RF, LF, IB and DH 

Grandal too many injuries to catch

Vaughn to slow for OF, Abreu still at 1st base

Eloy plays dead more than he plays the field.

I'll throw in Sheets since the other guy didn't. Another non OF.

Luckily it's only his 2nd year and he's improved a lot and maybe next year he'll improve again playing 1st base .

Do you really want to move on from Jose?

I didn't say he'd be playing for the Sox.  But to answer your question... Does it really matter ?

Lets not forget with men on 2nd and 3rd and 1 out . TLR could've hit Sheets  for Harrison vs. a RH.

You are absolutely right.  No sense of urgency again from TLR.  Harrison strikes out stays in the game and makes an error right away.  Sheets a potential home run hitter stays on the bench The whole game against a bunch of righty pitchers.

He has done that but you’re not doing anything for your team when you get tossed every time you argue about bad calls and then have to sit in the dressing room 

him getting tossed from the game would be for the better.

How do you injure your hamstring right away like that?  Things like that happen so much to the Sox.

I agree, Tony. You're lousy. Relief pitcher hits two batters in a row, and you lose to a lousy team in an empty stadium. The power numbers for this team are awful. No one is going to get 100 RBIs or even 20 homers. Yes, when you put runners on, you are supposed to drive them in.

You obviously forgot 1968, 1973, 1984, 1995 and 2009...those were also awful seasons where the Sox were expected to do well and fell flat on their faces.

They may play them but they are clear liabilities out there. Eloy and Vaughn are horrible outfielders that cost you runs and ultimately games. Grandal is not even close to being worth the 15 or so million we pay him, Seby is a more productive catcher at this point. Grandal has thrown out 17% of guys attempting to steal this year, down from 19% last year. He is not good, his defensive WAR is -.1 over his 3 years with the Sox. Sheets is a decent 1B and Abreu is OK. But those other 3 have no business being in the OF and catching.

You helped making it lousier in this game today.  You have been lousy in most every game this season.  The buck should stop in the field with you.  You have been unable to adjust and keep doubling down on your mistakes. You should resign immediately.
