You'll reach my status soon. When you just no longer expect the team to win, so when they get bombed again like they did tonight, you are no longer upset.
I've learned that life is all about expectations. If you don't expect anything, you won't be disappointed when nothing happens.
Haha no. I just told him he blows. He was at a restaurant watching the Celtics game, asked me how the Sox game went. 7 runs, 2.1 IP. Didn't even phase him. That's how sad it is. That line is expected.
I actually cannot fathom that the FO has let it get to this without shaking things up.
It's been 30 games now. That's 18.5% of the season. Make a damn move. Get some excitement on this team. I dread having to watch these games right now. It's not fun. It's not enjoyable. Make a damn move.
It's gotten so bad that every morning, I look forward more to checking the PawSox and Salem Red Sox stats to see how guys like Iglesias, Lavarnway, Bradley, Bogaerts, and Barnes have done than I do to the games that the Sox have.
Oh the AL East is not even in the discussion right now. The Wild Card is not in the discussion right now.
This season is borderline over, and I'm not being sarcastic. They'll make a late push, but it won't be close to being enough.
This team is on pace to be a 65 win team. I'm telling you. This team looks like the 2011 Minnesota Twins.
Twins in 2010: 94-68
Twins through 30 Games in 2011: 12-18
Twins in 2011: 63-99
Sound familiar?
I'm ready to get rid of Marlon Byrd too. He cannot read a fly ball off of the bat. Where the hell is Lin?!? At least he can field.
Again. Iglesias up. Aviles to LF. DFA Darnell. It's simple.
