Milkman delivers

Santos, I guess?

Well that round was a waste.

Where do you stand on, say, anti-pornography seminars in baseball? ?

Isn’t that what you’re doing at this very moment? And the short answer is that misery loves company.

About how we should’ve drafted Trubisky who’s lighting it up for the Chiefs while Mahomes is out of football?

Haha yikes.

Oh, I agree absolutely. I went years without tuning in. But not sure how they did overall in comparison to other seasons. And also not sure how the ratings work exactly. If a person tunes in for a minute here and there to check the score, does that count?

How bad were they in comparison to other years?

Wow, that’s still better than Oakland’s season winning percentage ?

Exactly. Remember how many games they were losing with Clevinger, Giolito, and Lynn? They won’t even have those guys. Cease appears to have fallen off of a cliff, and Robert might get hurt again or have a down year. They could be much worse than they were this year.

I know it’s not empirical evidence, but watching this team get beaten (or get slapped around, most of the time) by the likes of the Rockies, Royals, and A’s made me feel like the Sox were truly the worst overall team in baseball.

Or just castaways in general. Probably guys that have been around for a good amount of time in crappy organizations, likely in lower-level coaching positions. Guys that have impressed no one, but have put in their time. s%*#, look at Grifol. He was in a worthless spot for the Royals as the bullpen coach and they eventually bumped him up to bench coach when they became a terrible team again. Look for moves like that from the Sox. The Rockies third base coach, the A’s first base coach, the Angels AA head coach, etc.

The accused must still be vilified, no matter the lack of evidence or evidence to the contrary. It’s a power game now. If he’s accused and had the capacity to do it, he probably did it. That’s how it works. The vast majority of journalists are scumbags. And sports journalists are probably the worst.

There has been a lot of pushback on that claim. Not to diminish the trauma suffered by those who have lived through it.

Remember how Boston was Title Town for a while? What’s the exact opposite of that? That’s what Chicago feels like.

Don’t confuse a case report with anything substantive. You could walk into a station and make a report on anything or anyone. It does not mean it’s legitimate.

I’ve read into this as much as I have about Clevinger (none), but there can easily be similarities.

Who cares? It’s a stopgap for a season in which we will absolutely not compete. Throw Gavin Sheets out there and call it a day.

Seems pretty simple to me. They’re replacing members of the coaching staff to sell fans that they’re making moves to improve the team (they know the team won’t improve). And when the team sucks next year, Grifol becomes the fall guy so they can further sell fans that they’re making moves to improve the team. Most teams would get rid of the entire coaching staff in one fell swoop. The Sox are stretching it over two seasons to stay in that JR “almost” contending area to bleed the fans for longer without spending money. It’s insulting being a fan of this team.

I’ll be rooting for the Rangers, Brewers, or Rays to win it. They’ve never won it. I won’t be upset if the Blue Jays, Twins, Diamondbacks, Marlins, Phillies, Braves, or Orioles take it. I just don’t want the Astros or Dodgers.

I wonder how many managers returned after losing 100+ games.

Are you Chris Getz?

Anyone. I’m genuinely concerned.

2024 could seriously be #3.

Are OCD boners a thing? Because I think I have one.
