Nate so good tonight.

Richards wasn’t happy about being told to go to the Pen lmao. What did you think?!?!,! You suck ass man.

Well that was a fun start.

Early lead!!

Guess I won’t panic yet. We are still in a playoff spot. Once we lost the second wildcard spot…… then the optimistic people need to get real.

This!!!! I totally get it if we aren’t in a playoff spot , but we were tied for best record in the entire league. How does management just sit there and not care. Absolutely mind blowing. It’s almost like they expected failure like this and decided it’s a throw away season.

Exactly, spot on! The only reason why this is disappointing is because they got off to such a great start..... Whether we deserved to have the best record in baseball at one point or not really doesn't matter, it's still disappointing going from that to this crap. I obviously knew we were playing over our head, but it doesn't make this less painful. There might be some people that can say, "Hey, it's been a hell of a season, and we way over achieved, I am just glad we played good up till this point." but I am not one of those...... I can ACCEPT the fact that we were playing over our head, but it's still disappointing as all hell to fall this bad. Any time a team gets off to the start we did in the second half of the season, and then drops like this in the second half is disappointing regardless what you expected at the beginning of the season. The same thing happened with the Colts in 2019 with Jacoby Brisette. Nobody was expecting a great season after Luck retired, and then Indy went 5-3 (hell they even beat the Chiefs) and then we went 2-6 to finish the season..... Disappointing was an understatement. It's no different with the Sox this year. I wasn't expecting big things from this team with the rotation we had, and I even thought the bullpen would be awful.... But we just kept winning games. Now we are slipping back to reality to the team we really are and it stings. Anyone that thinks this is just "a rough patch" will be very upset by the end of the year. We have a bottom 5 rotation, you can't just turn that around. When your starters can't go past 4 or 5 innings tops (and have given up 4 runs) you aren't winning many games. They are showing zero signs of turning that around unfortunately. Sale coming back Saturday definitely helps though.

Yankees started with a lot of guys injured and on Covid, and Cole Was not pitching very well at all, you knew they had way too much talent to turn not Turn it around. Our starting rotation is pitiful, and showing nothing that they can magically get better. Our starters can’t even make it out of the fourth and fifth inning most days, and generally give us no chance to win. The offense literally has to score 5 or more every day in order for us to get a win, and even then we have now dropped two straight with good offense. You just can’t win baseball games with a bottom five rotation. Philadelphia is, but that is because they are in an atrocious division. We are arguably in the second toughest division, so if you don’t have a good pitching you just won’t win. This in my opinion is more than a bad stretch, this is who we really are

Win the division lol? If you said just making playoffs by a wild card then ok….. but win the division?? Get real man. Tampa has owned us badly all year other than our sweep against them. We can’t even beat Detroit. Tampa went to the World Series last year and is showing why they can do it again, they aren’t a pretend team. Even if we pick it back up, Tampa isn’t going to fall off. I’ll be amazed if we can even get in through wild card.

Honestly (and I don’t mean this to sound rude, you’re a good guy) I don’t give a s*** about dissecting games anymore. This team is f***ing losing and losing at a rapid rate. I don’t care anymore if it’s errors, pitching, bullpen, offense. We’re losing and keep losing. We lost a series to Detroit. Lost a series to the Jays. Tampa has now won 4 in a row against us or 5. Whatever it is. This team is a joke and finding ways to lose. Does anyone honestly think we could win a series in the playoffs lmao? Get real. We are losers right now, it is what it is.

The entire f***ing game. The last 3 weeks have honestly been hard to watch.

You guys have won 8 of your last 10. We have lost 11 of our last 13. You will catch us, that’s a guarantee.

This ENTIRE team has completely collapsed. Can’t wait for football.

…… Barnes has blown two straight now.

Yup that was disappointing

Feeling much anger.

Lmao. As a colts fan I hear this.

Lol I have done that so many times this year. At one point I think I said Richards could be ace material LMAO

Ya man. Just needs to be better. Ugh. Won’t make playoffs with this kind of pitching.

I’m getting that bad feeling again guys

Our pitchers struggle to go 6 this year.

HUNTER!!!!! Hell yes.

Come on E Rod. May be a pitchers dual tonight.

Let’s turn this season around.

Sale is back Saturday, neat!
