  1. A team, as the SOX have proven many times, can't compete with mediocre pitching and defense. Now that the SOX have added mediocre hitting into the mix this may be the worst season we'll endure in a very, very long time.
  2. Like I posted earlier, if it wasn't about money, JH would not have fired DD.
  3. When 'money' is listed as one of the answers, I'll always choose money.
  4. JH may be thinking "hell, I've paid for 4 championships; I've full-filled my obligation as an owner."
  5. Tomorrow night's game against the Angels will be broadcast on Apple+. If you don't have Apple+, that may be a good or a bad thing.
  6. The SOX are 15th currently in payroll at 177 million and 17% of that is the wasted money they're paying Sale. The Yankems' payroll is 100 million more than the SOX.
  7. Blaming Bloom is similar to giving your wife 5 dollars to go shopping on Rodeo Drive and blaming her for not bringing home something nice.
  8. Having said that, thank you, JH for the 4 championships. We'll have many, many years to remember those. Hopefully, not 86.
  9. I've got no problem blaming Bloom and/or Cora, but the real blame should be directed at JH. He's the one who controls the money and he's the one who decided to transform the SOX into a small market team. Hiring Bloom should have been the 1st hint.
  10. Except for the Tigers. Hopefully, the SOX play the A's soon.
  11. Fortunately the SOX got to play the Tigers early this season or the SOX record would be even worse. Tigers and A's may be the only AL teams worse than the SOX.
  12. For a split second during this game I thought the SOX might win. I'll try to avoid those split seconds in the future.
  13. This current team could lose 100 games(or more) this season.
  14. Ironic that the name of the GM of this SOX team is 'BLOOM.' A more appropriate name would be 'WITHER.'
  15. Based on what one would expect from Kluber, he did OK today.
  16. The NHL could make their games around 2 hrs by going from two intermissions to one.
  17. I wonder if the NFL decides to reduce football games from 3 hrs to 2 hrs by making huddles an infraction?
  18. Great at-bat by Casas. Can the 4 fouls and you're out rule be far behind? Gotta keep these games around 2 hours for no apparent reason.
  19. Rays' announcer referred to Chang being in a slump. Imho, to be in a hitting slump, one has to prove he can actually hit to begin with.
