Cleveland (and all these other teams including LA and ATL) got us without Mune.

Huge win and huge recovery after blowing the first two games. While this team has flaws no doubt, it could have easily been a 4 game sweep.

Either way

And for everybody who has demanded Trevor Richards be DFAed after every pitch, he has a 1.42 ERA in his last 12 appearances.

DJ and Len were saying he has one of the best changeups in the league.

That flight outta Cleveland has to be feeling real good especially after those first 2 games.

Enter the series in 1st place, leave the same way. Nice job by a bit of an unusual back of the bullpen the last 2 games...besides Taylor of course.

It may not seem like it, but Naylor has been gone for 2 years now.

His hidden snacks around the ballpark carry on, though.

Did you see that story where he hid in a closet with a knife or something? And this time it didn't seem like it was to cut some more slices of cake.

I did not.

Googling now, though.

Dudes psycho… and not in the positive Sam Antonacci best of ways 😆😆😆

Give credit to Getz. Newcomb, Grichuk, Peters, Vargas, Mune, Chase, Kay, Hudson have all been brought here by him and have all been positives. A few sis for sure but overall the last 2 years have had some good moves by Getz.

Reading the game thread after my last post in it 2 hours after the game.

My goodness most of you are crazy ! It's just one game in the middle of the season. It was like y'all expected to lose.

I must really be the oddball that after so many years of watching Sox baseball I don't get bothered by close games or losses.

I do get excited when they do good things just not bummed after the wheels fall off slightly. s%*# happens.

See ya in the playoffs where you can really lose your minds !

I said he was a sneaky good pickup at the time. Didn't prove it right away but over time he has.

It's crazy how in the moment people emotionally react.

Grant Taylor gets a 1,2,3 save and he is the second coming of Mariano Rivera.

Next night he walks 2 and let's up a run and those same posters start saying hehe just doesn't have it, not closer material, hope he can stick as a middle reliever.

Since July 4th 2025 Colson Montgomery is tied for 3rd most HR in the majors with Nick Kurtz.

These guys do not care about the previous days. Splitting that after two walk offs is huge.

It shows the resiliency of this clubhouse.

A bad team would fold after 2 gut-splitting, heart-wrenching walk-off losses. This team fought back.

Welcome to SoxTalk!

Of course Boston comes in playing their best baseball all year

The week ahead has the hot( 8 wins in last ten) Red Sox and the cool (3-7 in last 10) A's coming to Sox park.

Right now Sox will face 4 lefty starters ,one righty,one tba this week.

Would be nice if Sox could get their right handed outfielder( Pereira) back.

Big week for Grichuk and Acuna.

Red Sox are bad at home but 23-21 on road.

Meanwhile, guardians go to twins so someone( hopefully guards) is going to lose ground.

Finish 1st half strong,Sox!

How about Junior Perez reintroduce himself to the A's, "Remember me?

Not a well-played game at all, but we'll take the win. The announcers (including Steve Stone doing a national game) were talking about the pitchers being affected by the delay, fake start time, and second delay, but it seemed like the defenders were affected more. Sloppy play, brain farts, etc. But, these are the type of games they need to win. And they did.

When I saw Hicks warming up, I was like "oh s%*#." Luckily they kept Newcomb in, and he threw like 8 pitches and shut the door.

Think the ASB will do these guys real good.

Friday Night is already sold out. It's Mexican Heritage Night which is always a crazy fun night at the park.

CityFan Jr. and I will be in the house Wednesday night!

Great split. I was very frustrated Thursday and Friday with those outcomes, but man this team just picks themselves up and digs deep when they need to. The entire series was a +1 RDIFF for the Sox. Just very competitive. Sometimes I think myself (and a lot of us) live and die with every game almost with a CFB and NFL mentality. 12 or 17 games makes every game a must win…and baseball is different, even playing against a division rival with whom you’re battling for the top of the division. We’ve gone from a win being nice to a win being the expectation and that shifts the mindset of fans. Let’s go 4-2 minimum this week and into the break on a huge positive note!
