I’m beginning to wonder if Montgomery and Ramos have been kidnapped. We don’t even have hitting prospects to interest us.

If they want to fire Grifol, go ahead

TLR is really looking better and better as this season goes on. For whatever flaws he had, and he had a bunch, the team never tanked like this and it's basically the same team as last year.

Did you miss the 8 game losing streak in April '22 where I was joking that the Mon-Stars had stolen all their baseball abilities because of how bad they looked and the 8 game losing streak where they gave up after having lost the first game of a key series to Cleveland?

Teams all over the Majors the rest of the year are going to be licking their chops in anticipation of playing this pathetic bunch of stiffs.

Sox killer Hernandez in...

They cannot fire everyone soon enough to trade anyone.

Realistically there is little value in anyone other than Giolito at this time.

They are the Jim Boylan - Gar/Pax Bulls currently 

And he wanted Gio DFA'd last year.

TLR won 81 games last year with a bunch of stiffs.  Grifol and company are gonna be lucky to win 65 this year. 

Tony was never the problem.

Can you imagine how horrible the roster will be after the deadline?  Considering there are no interesting prospects they can call up, I’m going to end up watching hardly any games the final few months.

You know nothing of note is changing until October. 

Sosa is going to be thoroughly embarrassed by this guy.   He should just stand there with the bat on his shoulder.

3-8 in the lineup actually with decent offensive numbers right now. 

It's Sosa Anderson and Benintendi with the worst stats. 

Anderson had something like the highest rolling MLB batting average over a 3-4 year period heading into the 2022 season. 

Pretty incredible.

I mean last year's team was better on paper, but they finished with 81 wins. This year we will be lucky to win 65. TLR wasn't the solution but in hindsight he wasn't he main problem either.

not gonna happen. he will be here for at least another year. Hahn made it clear his job is safe. 

Witt Jr. is a better player than TA will ever be.

The Sox are done scoring today. We have seen this game a lot. 

Royals playing excellent defense this inning. Looks like the Sox woke them up

Good contact, no longer in Charlotte though

They’re more talented on offense with all the injuries the Sox have

I think Hahn is gone.

Only real thing would be to fire Grifol and hire Ozzie.  I only say Ozzie as he would come cheap and if they are paying 4 guys that is what they need.  

Would bring some fans out as well.

 

 

At least Sosa hit the ball hard two at-bats in a row, I guess.

Man this team is boring. Pitching blew games 1 and 3, offense blows this game. Just can't put anything together.

Why was Grifol even hired in the first place? The Sox couldn't find anyone else besides this dude? It looks like this team quit on him a long time ago...

Witt and Pasquantino alone...plus Perez has always owned the Sox until health issues wore him down.

Yeah I’m sure the guy who slept in the dugout, had the closer run the bases, and intentionally walked hitters with 2 strikes was never the problem.

quit means they ever played hard for him

It’s amazing how the downfall seemed to occur once he acted like a total idiot about Yermin’s homer
