8/8 vs Royals

[FredLynn]

This what it looks like when a team gives up-not the Royals either.

They are the better team.

All you cynics lamenting Lamet... you act like all of Bloom's pitching additions every year are inept crap-tossing cheap waiver wire DFAed minor league bargain basement dumpster dive pick-ups.

 

Sure, the last 17 may have been, but have you already forgotten he signed Chris Martin? Just get me to the 7th or 8th with the lead! It could happen...

 

Great post, reflecting reality . We do have a great set-up man and closer, but as you note, generally need the lead.

It’s past the point that it’s best to try to win games any more. It’s best to lose every remaining game to improve our draft position. I just hope that miraculously we finish ahead of the Yankees

 

i really think that's what they're trying to do. Bloom has his eye on some 10th grader who might make the team sometime around 2035.

He's watching late noight ESPN reruns of the Little League World Series

Cora wants to scream- he is not having fun.

LOLOLOLOLOLOLOL......gotdamn, this is one s***** f***ing team. nice job Chaim. nice job.

[vegasbob]

I apologize but cannot watch this crap any more tonight. Good luck to you guys.

[d-money]

To take it up the chin at home against this team is embarrassing. Another embarrassing effort.

He'll give Bloom the two most valuable assets an asshat could want: versatility and control. But he can't pitch.

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

Kenley and Martin may get more rest than they expected as the season goes forward. The bridge to the 8th inning appears to need serious infrastructure.

Boo!

Nice wanna see the boo birds.

On the positive side, Blue Jay's lost tonight so won't lose anymore ground on the wild card

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

I think the fans are booing because Cora took Lamet out.

Talk about wasting good pitching. Guardians had 3 hits tonight and won that game. Lol

Bloom needs to sign a player named Boog.

[FredLynn]

Bloom running the SOX like a low budget TV variety show, where the main guest is Kevin Sorbo.

 

Henry told Bloom to cut costs. Bloom was in the Rays organization and Henry thought Bloom could create a winning team here like the Rays have done.

It’s not working.

[wyo-sox]

As of now, for tonight's games, every other AL East team combined has given up 7 runs against their opponents.... while we have given up 9 against one of the worst teams and franchises in baseball. Not only are we on a major down hill slide, the rest of the division are really good teams.

It's called MONEY BAWL. JH gets the money and the fans get to bawl.

[wyo-sox]

Playing crappy baseball... wearing silly yellow shirts..... this is not the team I wanted to follow.

Didn’t we also finish in last place last year too?

We are clearly the worst team in the division and have been for years.

But hey-just wait til next year, right?

Well, that "wait til next year' worked for 86 years at one point.

This feels like rapid stabbing to my gut.

 

Our pen depth is doing its best to twist the knife.

Depth? or did you mean death?

I don't know why fans keep going to the games.

[redsoxrules]

Orioles just gave up a grand slam in the top of the ninth. Now losing 7-6.

I began a SOX fan in 1958, so I waited 46 years for a championship. As much as I would like to, I can't wait 46 years again.

It's the Fenway Green. It's soothing and can become very addictive.

SOX franchise has exclusive rights to the color Fenway Green, but if you wanted to paint your house in that color, just remove a chip of paint from the ballpark. Do that at your own risk.

Once you have the chip, it can be copied at your local Dutch Boy or whatever.
