Sheets stinks.

Moncada having a real nice game

Not much room for error when you score 1 freakin’ run

1 run on 10 hits and, 0 on the 9 that weren’t a homer LMAO

If I were managing the Sox I’d tell Vaughn he’s not allowed to swing 3-0 until he’s hitting line drives and fly balls more.

3-0 count, groundout. Yeesh.

Hanser’s got no shot against this guy

Cease having a lot of trouble putting people away when he’s 94-96 on the fastball

Another zillion pitch inning for Cease

These guys stink

That was strike 3 on the steal attempt

Kopech has the guy 0-2 and throws a fastball right down the pipe. Lucky that was just a sac fly.

Kopech can't locate. Feel like he's due a 2 or 3 run inning soon.

Don't want to read into this too much, but it doesn't surprise me at all.

Yeah, I know. This is a pipe dream.

Yeah. I think we're stuck with these guys until they're in the last year of their deals, then they'll probably trade them for nothing of note. Team is going to stink for a while.

That makes some sense, but it'd probably just be a very expensive wasted pick because he'll be left to sink or swim just like every other prospect.

I would love to see some real investigative journalism with former players and coaches. Along the same lines as what @Lip Man 1produced, but talking to people who were on the field or helping game plan and scout. Especially those who went elsewhere and learned how other organizations work. I assume it would be very tough as I'm guessing it's a very insular and protective club, but hearing how backwards this organization really is would be fascinating.

Good squeeze. He was safe no matter what.

I LOVE seeing Chapman give up leads

I really don't think Robert went on that check

Vaughn seems to be the only one who cares today

Grifol came in here talking about preparation, but this team still looks like they've never seen any of these players before. Grifol coached the Royals and they still have no clue what they're doing. Unreal. I don't think he's a good manager, but it's clear this organization does not know how to scout and prepare their team.

At least Sosa hit the ball hard two at-bats in a row, I guess. Man this team is boring. Pitching blew games 1 and 3, offense blows this game. Just can't put anything together.
