Green Line

The talent isn't what we thought it was. Eloy is a bust, Moncada is looking that way too, Abreu's age has caught up with him quickly. Who else is left? Is TA, Robert, and Grandal supposed to carry the entire team? There are 6 other lineup spots to fill and they all suck. You have Vaughn who has looked shaky lately but overall been a bright spot.

So many things. He led an injury devastated ball club to 90+ wins and a division championship last year with basically have the team injured for the second half of the season. He manages the bullpen excellently. He keeps the attention off the players so they can just focus on the game at hand, unlike Ozzie who was all drama all the time. Now, with injuries ravaging the team again, he has prevented a collapse and kept them hovering around .500 until the players, who have sucked, can turn it around. plus I cant even get into the fact that most of what a manager does in unseen to fans. We have no clue what goes on in the clubhouse, we only know the results speak for themselves.

If someone else buys the team they'll probably relocate it out of Chicago. JR's loyalty to this city will be hard to replicate.

Yes... and since then they've made up and TA very publicly called for Tony to return in 2022. Again, what point do you think this proves.

A year old tweet lol. Do you realize how irrelevant this is?

Lol Anderson standing up for LaRussa and making the soxtalk armchair managers look silly. I think TA knows better than Soxtalk if TA needs a game off.

And? TLR didn't wave him home. He was probably in his corner. Oz can come back and be the 3B coach since he knows so much.

They need to do something drastic to wake up the team, send a damn message. First - fire the hitting coach.

Its actually extremely debateable, just not to the armchair managers of Soxtalk.

That's how literally every thread goes when the Sox lose.

Its tough to see the ball out there.

TA needs a game off, he looked bad this afternoon. of course people complain about every single lineup if all the regulars dont play every day. Its a long season.

Another easy win. We own the AL Central.

DJ said last night that the Sox proved they could hang with the Yankees last weekend. Theyre all blowing smoke up our you know what.

Lol WHAT. He was not offensively challenged last season. He basically carried the entire lineup in the second half.

Very productive AB for mcguire. He needs to do that more often.

I wonder if we will see Liam. Wouldnt be opposed to Lopez with how moribund the Royals lineup is. Save Liam for tonight if possible!

We have a good catcher. He will turn it around. Has good baseball instincts.

Sox needed Kelly to be good. They dont have enough relievers to only pitch him in blowouts… because every game is close. It is what it is.

Just take him out now.

It would be great if they could score a few more and save Liam for tonight.

Check mate

I would have let him finish this inning. But maybe its a bad matchup.

Jose had better ABs yesterday. He needs to he patient.

Love sac flys.
