5/31/2023 - Angels @ Sox (retroactive gamethread)
chitownsportsfan replied to JoeC's topic in 2023 Season in Review
Yep, and the schedule was as soft as it will be all year. They had a chance to get back into it, they failed. I'd hazard a guess they play basically .450 ball from here on out and finish around 70 wins. It's just a mediocre team that would finish anywhere from 70-80 wins in any given year and this one's is trending towards the lower end of that projection. -

Romy successful due to new light-hearted approach

It would be nice to see some consistency from any of our players. Other than Yaz it seems we have guys that are subject to prolonged slumps. -

He's now at -.1 fWAR. He's gone from historically bad to just bad. Maybe he keeps hitting, probably not, but we'll see. -
Bro a team 15 under has never made the playoffs. Yes, a season can be over in May. They just got stomped by a bad Detroit team. I know the old message board trope about never giving up, real fans, blah blah blah you are channeling but it doesn't work with a team this bad.

We've seen way too many series against bad to mediocre teams like that during the last two years. Many chances to win, a pitch made here, a play there, a good AB -- but just not made. It reminds me a bit of a conversation on Big Soccer about if Leeds United would go down. Some were arguing "well all they need is to win a game or two here over the last month they've had so many chances and some of it just bad luck they aren't this bad". Well, turns out they are, and so are the Sox. This isn't just bad luck or a play not being made once and awhile -- it's consistent bad play, consistent failure in big moments -- because the team is no bueno.
