Well that is sort of the issue. We have a grand total of two hitters you can depend on to do some damage regardless of whether we face a LH or RH pitcher and then a punch of guys that will fill in the offense around them depending on the pitcher. But if those two guy are not getting it done or even if one of them is not getting it done, we are offense challenged.

 

That is why Remy and OB are calling for more small ball. It is suddenly dawning on them that this offense needs to find some other ways to score.

I really think they have to Blow up the payroll and get Scooter Gennette he seems like a guy that brings a lot of energy and excitement even with his aweful team .

 

I'm down for that. Unlikely to happen though.

At some point you just got to lay down a bunt and try and play some small ball but nooooooooooooo.

 

Of course, that would have been followed by Vazquez striking out and that would leave it up to Bradley.

 

Edit - As Vazquez strikes out.

I hate feeling this way about my team but there are far to many guys playing way to much for there skill level .

Price and Sale have been incredible but Pedey and Hanley have taken its toll .

 

Both together would have made about 3/4 of a real hitter this year. Not sure either would have made a significant impact at the plate. Pedey would surely have an impact in the field.

Counting this game if the SOX go 45-42 the rest of the season, they will finish with 95 wins. Before the season started how many here would have been happy with 95 wins?

 

That 17-2 start raised most of our expectations unrealistically too high.

I really thought even than that 95 wins was a play-in game. I hate the play-in game and will only take if that is all I can get.

Has he? He wasn't earlier this year.

 

Wore it a good part of last year. Frankly I think he has worn it more than he has not.

I Said 97 wins so damn close ...95 may get you third place in the AmericN league and a one game play in vs Houston Verlander or Seattle maple leaf

That was a real gem of a pitch to Kepler.

 

It actually looked pretty far inside; I’m not sure either hit that inning were on pitches in the strike zone.
