Thanks for your reply Homer.

His ABs are an eyesore, he looks completely lost as he lets meatballs go down the middle while striking out on pitches off the plate.

 

No doubt, he doesn't look great right now, but would you SERIOUSLY bet on him not looking good / great by year's end?

 

He's the real deal that Ells never was.

 

Sad thing? We will be outbid, & Mookie (the REAL future HOF CF'r) will walk & haunt us for the next decade +++

 

Save your passion for the big picture loss of Mookie.

Betts deserves to get heat from fans for his poor form irrespective of past achievements, just as the likes of Sale and Porcello are getting rightly criticised for their unacceptable pitching.

Mookie is my favourite player on the Sox so his current form is personally painful to endure!

Still got another hour or so to get back from the game. Not the best performance out of our Sox, but I was glad to be there. Yankee Stadium is absolutely beautiful and I'm just really at a good place in my life right now so I don't really care that we lost so badly. All about the people.

 

 

Thanks for the tickets, a700. Hopefully they win for you tomorrow

I wasn’t aware this happened, very cool of A700. Glad you had fun

I normally would not start a game thread here. But since my team is involved and nobody has bothered to post a thread with the game starting in less than an hour, here ya go.

 

Now see, you just blew the whole game thread system out of the water.

 

Who starts tonight's game thread? Technically, you can't, because the Red Sox lost.

 

OTOH, your team won, so does that mean you get to start the next game thread?

 

These are the things that keep me awake at night.

The Red Sox are a traveling s*** show this year. Amazing how bad they look, but I still luv them for what they brought me last season.

 

Who are these imposters disguised as the 2019 Boston Red Sox?

 

They aren't just losing, but they're losing bad. Three of their wins have only been by one run, but when they lose, they're mostly getting blown out.

 

I am so over this team right now. Pathetic bunch of bums playing with no life.

I vote he gets to start it.

Agreed. For him, it's a win, and by some sort of perverse mojo, starting it again even after a Sox loss might be good for us

You’re right. I’m being a homer because I’m not giving up on Mookie Betts two weeks into the season. You right, he sucks.

 

A Yankees fan came up next to me at the urinal, saw my shirt, and said "Mookie sucks." My response was simply, "You're right. He does right now"

 

And the during all the "Boston sucks" chants, I thought to myself, "I totally agree with you guys. Boston does suck"

Don't worry Max. I am extremely frustrated with this team right now, but I have no doubt we are making the playoffs.

Okay. If there isn't a game thread already up by 5PM I'll create one.

 

I was just kind of messing with you in that previous post.

 

You can go ahead and start it anytime.

 

Your team won the game, so it's your game thread to start.

Well actually I would not be so sure that it should work that way. its a Red Sox Forum. The rule for game thread starters has been built around whether the Sox win or not. Sox win, you keep the right to start the next game thread. Sos don't win, somebody else takes over.

 

Unfortunately, I get the feeling that there will be many multiple opportunities for GT starters this year. We might even end up trolling the streets for them like 18th century ship's officers leading a press gang looking to impress a crew before sailing. :D

Someone please create a thread...… Then again, I'm not so sure it matters anymore. Our suckage is real regardless of who creates a game day thread.

I'll take that bet!

Yankees with so many injuries, yet their makeshift lineup completely dominates us. What a joke.

 

It was humiliating. Thank god we have a pushover opponent in Tampa coming up..... ugh.....
