They probably won't though.

Looks that way.

Who had Jordan Hicks and Chase Meidroth doing more for a Sox team in the 2026 postseason than Garrett Crochet and Roman Anthony?

I know they already voted for all the awards, but there's no way Tracy should win manager of the year with how poorly he's managed the Red Sox series.

Flitting back and forth between the Yanks/Sox and Pads/Cubs. Man, Jason Benetti has some pipes, his voice just commands the action.

Crochet in the game for Boston

K's the first batter, but he reaches on a wild pitch

Crochet with an infinite ERA. Ouch.

I live in NYC so I have a lot of Yankee fan friends, but it has been especially easy to root against the Red Sox after the way they failed to show up against Cleveland. I told all my friends, two game sweep, book it.

That was a sad appearance. I'm always going to root for Crochet. At least he's on a real major league ballclub.

Padres up early again

Tough spot to put him in. First outing since a long term injury with no rehab outings, throwing to a catcher he's never worked with in a must-win road playoff game.

And then that catcher makes two high impact errors right away.

Was hoping for the Sox Cubs world series but I guess we are going to have to settle for Sox vs. Brewers

This feels like Renteria putting in Rodon in the playoffs back in 2020.

Post season isn't the same for a baseball fan without Judge. I prefer teams at full health.

Wil has gotten a lot of mileage out of a duct tape pitching staff. Imagine if this team had at least 2 real starters that could give you quality starts.

Remember when Boston was unbeatable for that stretch during the season? Whooping us and everybody. Now they're just awful.

Hoping for a Crosstown Classic WS is so much fun, but hate watching the Cubs and MVPete get whooped is also fun.

If we had the Red Sox pitching staff we'd win 95 games easy.

That 3B ump just flicking his wrist last night is going in my all time gif list lol

Cubs out of challenges already

Where’s that thread where one poster continues to try and argue we lost the Crochet trade…

So, does Dustin Harris get playoff shares from 3 different teams (Houston, White Sox, San Diego)?

The guys we got from that trade went 9 for 25 this series with a homer and 6 RBIs.

I want the Cubs to win. I just don't want them to win the World Series. The playoffs are more fun with both Chicago teams in it.

Sox vs Dodgers feels like the ultimate contrast match up. The entire sports world would be invested and rooting for the Sox.

win or lose trades can be meaningless. (except for some of Getz trades) There can be luck.

The ones that often win are the ones that have a revolving door of talent in the minors. Those are the teams that have players in the minors who could play for a crappy organization.

If it was Our Sox vs Brewers what would that do to the potential lock out?

Ex Red Sox were key in this series when you add in Sandlin and Hicks.
