Every time I turn our games on lately we have only 1 run with the exception of the first game of the double header. This is brutal. How long before it's not a slump and just a problem? I don't think this is a slump anymore

Not getting that run with runners on 1 & 3 really hurt. Could be a 1 run game, yet it's not & they can't seem to get a big hit to save their lives.

It's been a problem. Some fans would rather just try & see the positive side of it. I can't because I consider myself a realist.

It's obvious it's a lack of talent. No power threats from the left side, black holes at C/SS and no number 2 or 5 hitters.

I've tried to stay positive but it's just gone now. No matter what Hahn does, he can't build an offense.

Adam Eaton has scored 3 runs in the last 13 games. There's just a glimpse of your problems.

It's also time for Rollins to not be in the 2 hole. Put Lawrie there next with his OBP.

Just looked this up...Sox are getting a 219/284/328 slash from the 2nd spot this year

"Reality" should set in when looking at our CF, SS, C, & DH situation. That, along with a down year from Abreu this season makes our offense pretty darn bad. I believe the most pathetic is our DH situation...Avi...c'mon.

 

This is not an offensive "slump" This will continue, just like last season.

I've talked about it on twitter a few times. There is no reason to be positive or have trust in an organization that has brought their fans this product. This isn't anything new & frankly, we watched them choke it away in RV's first year.

 

People can make whatever excuses they want, whether that be lack of talent, etc but the fact remains that I see little to no reason for optimism with a team that has continued to fail each year.

More 2 out runs allowed

We'll see how they continue until the deadline but if they just keep getting worse and are out if it then just wipe this team clean.

 

 

4-1 this is ovah

This bullpen sucks too.

If they do end up rebuilding, better not be with Hahn in charge. Just let him go after the year and bring in McLeod

Going to be yet another lost series. Fantastic. This went to hell quickly.

What the hell are Navarro and Cabrera doing?

 

Inexcusable apathy defensively.

I'd be fine with cleaning the FO and coaching staff as well. Screw it but I know that's a pipe dream.

So he pulls Jennings now for the righty, despite Gomes being significantly better vs LHP this year? These decisions aren't making any sense of late.

Yeah Cabrera was pretty lethargic on getting that ball in the corner.

Well, best thing about our current state is RV is much, much less likely to get an extension.

I'm honestly ready to just blow it up if they continue to suck.

We could really infuse this team with good young players

Navarro seemed more engaged when Avila was out. Since he's returned, he's been awful.

He's a really f***ing s***ty manager. Can't wait til the season ends and he is not re-signed.

its okay Ventura will get them snapped out of it.

 

He has shown all his career he knows to push the right buttons.

Lack of effort there simply can't be tolerated...so much for our veteran leadership.

 

Unravelling quickly.
