11 hours ago11 hr What can you say. This is just a brutal stretch of the schedule and they aren't responding well. Have another tough pitcher facing them Wednesday night.Beat tonight by two guys hitting .250 and .212. Yankees know how to win games regardless of who is playing, they do it year after year after year.Just try not to get swept now, win a game, stop the bleeding. Edited 11 hours ago11 hr by Lip Man 1

Tall order, yes but it also Is something this team is capable of. That would put us up to nearing .500 on this “hell run”.Bottom line - this season is coming down to the wire and will likely be determined in the games remaining against the divisional opponents.Sure would be nice to have some reinforcements.

We know this isn't a great team, it's a solid one with good vibes, sometimes that's just .500, we'll see.Just too many missing pieces with no catchers, no power in the outfield, in need of 2 starters and a permanent closer.

4 hours ago4 hr Missing the playoffs eventually would suck, but overall would be pretty hard to be disappointed about this season. Still think they get out of this funk and get some help and make it in.
1 hour ago1 hr What sucks is that both these first two games vs. the Yankees were both winnable games!

It reminded me of how success in baseball can so often hinge on random strokes of luck-- getting the breaks vs. not getting the breaks. The bullshit double to which you refer is just one example. I think we're due for some luck of the "good" variety now. We have the skill and the heart. Here we are, July 29, 2026, and the Sox are in FIRST PLACE in their division. To use a worn expression: How cool is that??!! Here's my supremely unqualified take: we CAN beat this Yankees team (especially now that we've lulled them into a false sense of security). ☺️ We just need to get pissed and go after them. I'm predicting that this unique group of guys is going to turn the tables tonight and tomorrow afternoon!

Last 10 games the Sox are 4-6, Indians are 3-7 and Twins are 5-5. All 3 teams teams appear to be in the same boat and the Sox are still in front with August coming this weekend.
