Deserves every penny of that $4M.

After all, we've been told ad nauseum that it was Grandal holding the team back and that once he was gone, any catcher would be an upgrade.

It very well could have been true with Grandal, but they added the one guy who is just as bad and washed up

Haha, nice job cutting that off Grossman. Looked like he was running with concrete shoes.

Leone is in, the flag has been waived. Coming off a series where they were outscored 27 to 5, this is another example of offensive prowess.

Welp, no reason to watch anymore.  This is truly pathetic.  Worst team I’ve ever seen, and yet we know nothing will change.

Lopez is another guy that I will never understand how they thought his hitting style would work at this park.  He could barely hit at KC with their giant outfield.  The decision making exhibited by Getz this past offseason should terrify people.

A little dramatic.

Sox are about to go 0-5 to a team that lost 106 games last year……..Pedro way

Grandal at least put up a good 2020 and good (albeit injured) 2021. 

Let me show you the video that sums up Maldonado's seasons before signing with the Sox:

I know you’re a fan, but what would you say he’s done well?

Sigh

Benintendi with a pulse today

Beni hits the ball so hard

Vaughn......

AV is abysmal.

AV rally killer and poster child for lack of development of Sox staff.

Andrew Gone. 

34 runs scored, in 15.6 games.

He's changing the organization bottom to top.   It's not going to show up on the big league team yet.  This organization was a dumpster fire.  It's going to take some time.

Getz is a huge part of the problem, he is not qualified in any way to be a GM. He is a laughing stock in MLB circles.

The Sox are last in baseball in homers. 2nd to last in slugging. Last in barrels. 2nd to last in hits, only the Twins have less hits, but they have almost twice the amount of homers. This team can't hit and they have no power. It's the ultimate snooze fest. 

Leasure is a beast. That dodgers trade might be the best Sox trade since the Eaton trade.

The guy is terrible and they are paying $4.3 million for him.

Right.  The worst team in baseball,  but he is being dramatic.  He's already shoving out guys he signed after only 3 weeks.

He's getting $3.25 Million this year, arb-eligible next 2 years.  Non=tender is possible. Send him down for a month, see if he snaps out of it.  He looks done.

I don't see it with Sosa. Light hitting utility guy at best.
