These guys are panicking....too anxious...not nearly patient enough. There is still time, but if we lose this its going to be very tough to make the playoffs.
Here's what ESPN had predicted for this team. Not 90+ wins:
19. Boston Red Sox
Projected record: 79-83 (14.7% playoff odds)

You have to admit that no one expected this team to be competitive this year. No one expected us to be in position to be in the playoffs. Maybe we will make it; maybe we won't. Regardless, I don't think anyone can deny that the team exceeded expectations.
He's going to need some company. We can't have guys like Perez, Richards, and Pivetta (unless he is a #5) out there every fifth day. And ERod has got to do much better.
