Marlins up 10-1, will win their first game and tie the Sox for fewest wins in MLB. I expect the Sox to be the worst team in baseball this year, there is no hope for this franchise when we have the worst owner along with a GM and field manager who have no business being in their current jobs not to mention a bunch players except for one that no other teams would want.

If this team is going to suck so badly, I figured I might as well start making money off them.

Why so optimistic?

Since 2020, the start of the “World Series Window” the Sox are 271-283

Did the Sox pay you to mention they’ve won that many?

How much longer do I have to wear this bag over my head?

That’s 171 games, I think you meant 62-100, no way that this team wins 62 games.

Was this meant to be a joke? Seems like this is actually a fair question.

I think he's saying that's Grifol's overall record.

OK, thanks. 

That was a bad game. 13 runners and only three runs? Moncada loafing on the basepaths. This should have been a win, and the fact that it wasn't shows how bad this team is. KC isn't as bad as in recent years, but to be swept by them even in Kansas City is lame. Trade Moncada now if you can. He's hitting well, maybe someone will be dumb enough to take him.

0-7 vs the Tigers and Royals. They're both worse than Cleveland and Minnesota too. Detroit just lost a series at home to the A's. Like I said the other day, we're probably the worst team in baseball. 

1-10 RISP

3 errors

Not that it really matters but this is the second game where the Sox had a lead in the 7th inning or later and lost.

Don't stop now boys!

There's no probably about it. This is a AAA caliber team, minus, like, three players.

And two of those guys are probably AA guys.

On pace for 18 wins.  Remember when it couldn’t be worse than last year?  Getz and Grifol are reaching for new heights.

I'd promote Colas, demote Vaughn, fire Grifol, promote Justin Jirschele.

It's actually funny that everyone screamed that they didn't want Salvy Perez on this team. Dude's OPSing .879. Can't have that because Royals.

Do you know what a SSS is?

Do you know what a .761 lifetime OPS is?

Pedro is so passive when managing the bullpen. Make sure someone's completely lost it before lifting them.  He's got 8 pitchers; use them and try to win a game.

He's not going to have a career year at 34. His OPS by September will likely be around .700. It was .714 last season. That's how small sample sizes work. Unless you think he's going to continue batting .333 or whatever he's batting.

Now that the Marlins got a win, we should be on a fast track to DFL in baseball.

 

All aboard!

Wow, are you a baseball scout or something? You seem really smart about baseball. LOL. 

Guess what? Pick any offensive number, and Perez's will be better than Maldonado's. I'm happy to have explained that to you.
