Chisoxfn Posted July 2, 2021 Share Posted July 2, 2021 Reminder - the year the Sox last won the series, I think the only move they made was Geoff Blum (maybe I'm forgetting something). 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That 2005 team had a pretty unreal run of health though, which is the exact opposite of this one. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The most important part at this point though is - being healthy at the right time. If things work out, this team could have an August/September in full force - which would be massive heading into October. But you are right - in general - Championship teams need some luck on their side, especially in baseball. I've always said Basketball is the sport with the highest outcome where the best team actually wins. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've always said Basketball is the sport with the highest outcome where the best team actually wins. In 2021, it could even be as simple as just being healthier than the rest of the field. This year is BRUTAL. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
runtheballdown Posted July 2, 2021 Share Posted July 2, 2021 The Sox could probably win 90 games on the mlb level with their Charlotte position players and their mlb staff. If they start losing pitchers they better have all their injured position players back. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
