5-12

Before that they were 9 over and flying high

So demoralizing. Even if we go 7-10 we are in a much better spot

Did the math earlier. I was born in March 1991 so this is my 36th season. If they miss the playoffs, in my lifetime they will have made the post-season on average once every 6 seasons. Oof

This is my 60th season (I think) . I've seen some horrific teams and great ones . what I see here is a learn on the job manager with a bunch of very young guys, a couple of whom have just gotten lost along the way and can't find their way back.

I've watched the collapse and to me it's all on Mune and CMont. I give a pass to everyone else. Both

of them fell apart and climbed into a shell. CMont even forgot how to catch. It has been an unexpected

pleasure to watch the Sox this year. I won't let the bad ending ruin my merories 2026. Bring on Caleb Bonemer

and 2027.

Braden Montgomery shouldn’t be given a pass.

I actually still believe a Cleveland sweep was the only true disaster. Plus they did show some fight while I was afraid they might not be competitive at all.

Also.....you have to make that damn catch last night...they were that close to taking 2 of 3.

Bullpen has to stop all the bases on balls in the next 3 series.

I do too. That second game was just so crushing, though. Bottom line is we're tied in the loss column with the tiebreaker, so we really do control our own destiny. The next three series will show whether we're just in a temporary slump or irreparably gassed/choking.
