T R U Posted August 5 Share Posted August 5 13 hours ago, Look at Ray Ray Run said: Thanks, I remembered the prediction thread and the vast majority (from what I recall) said they'd be better than last year. A lot of things had to go right. If you would have said Teel, Quero, Montgomery and to an extent Meidroth would all get called up and be pretty good I wouldn’t have believed it. What we got from Houser and most of Smiths first half, wouldn’t have believed it either. So I think I wouldn’t have changed what I thought, I just didn’t see how they would be better and it looks like the answer was a bunch of things I would have never believed possible anyways.

sin city sox fan Posted August 5 Author Share Posted August 5 In the next week and a half, we have a 3 game series in Seattle (against a team that is only 5-5 in their last 10 games) and a 6 game homestand against Cleveland and Detroit. If we can go 8-1 during this stretch, we'll be 50-71. We'd only have to go 31-10 over the final month and a half to reach .500. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Even if they had gotten rid of many more players at the deadline, they’d still finish better than last year’s team. It’s really hard to be that bad. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Boopa1219 Posted August 8 Share Posted August 8 I’m shocked that people are actually monitoring the win/loss record for a rebuilding team, it’s irrelevant. The Sox winning their way out of the top 3 of the draft would be catastrophic. 3 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
