At this point, I would fire Grifol out of pure boredom. Do something. 

Sox #1 and #2 hole hitters:  7 Ks in 10 PAs.

Brooks Baldwin, after spending his first week under .100 in BA and OPS, quickly has an OPS of .568.  That's ahead of "The Pillar's" .558 and closing in on Nicky Lopez' righteous .582.

I’d fire Grifol for getting the worst out of Robert and Eloy

At least the players like each other. This team is a joke.

There is such a lack of hustle.  Benintendi was jogging around the bases on DeJong’s double.

I don't think anybody could get more out of those 2. I'm not sure who to blame, but they're both among the most unlikable athletes I can remember.

Their performance and effort was never this bad under our managers

I still think the funnier thing is he acquired a second baseman that he knew had absolutely no power.

Madrigal Lite.

Robert's effort has always been bad. Eloy seems like he's putting in more effort, and occasionally having a good time, but they're both glass. Based on their social media presence, there's some serious holes in the way they train. It's the Sox fault for allowing them to use their own programs in the offseason, but if you watch them, they train like complete idiots. 

Longest losing streak. Most times shutout. Let's get no hit tomorrow to complete the trifecta 

You know they very well may lose 20 in a row!

Sure no effort when the best CF in the AL last year. 

Kevin Kiermaier won it on rep alone... lifetime achievement award basically. 

This thread has been cleared out as well.

Let me say it again:

No more of the name calling posts.  There is plenty of room on the Soxtalk bench.

Bad game. I didn't watch it but Fedde's line was bad at least. Don't know if he pitched well or not but very mediocre statline.

Robert 4 Ks is a big LOL. Four strikeouts and a .214 batting average? Cmon. You can't blame any GM for taking a hard pass on both Robert and Eloy. At some point Robert has to show some consistent hitting.

Baldwin got 3 hits. So 13 in a row but tomorrow is the likely win via Crochet unless he only goes 3 innings or something.

I have made six game threads this year.

I have yet to make 2 game threads in a row.

As would Sirotka and Sirota.

Actually, come to think of it, Shuster has been pretty decent in non high leverage work.

 Was nice to see Baldwin go 3 for 4 with 2 doubles.

Glad that Baldwin broke through the Maldonado line.

Pedro doesn’t bring energy or discipline to the team.  There is no improvement, nothing is changed, keep losing and no adjustments.  It is a disgrace..

I have no idea why you hate Robert so much…absolutely bizarre
