BrittBurnsFan Posted August 1, 2021 Share Posted August 1, 2021 This is just not fun! I mean...I know we are up 8 games and that is AWESOME! But I enjoy watching games throughout the season and the last month has not been fun! As soon as our staff gives up 2 or 3 runs it feels like the game is over! The offense is embarrassing! 8 games is a ton! October will be fun (assuming we win a game/series or play close games! But I hope we see some more offense in the next two months because it won't just magically appear in October! Rant over... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hogan873 Posted August 1, 2021 Share Posted August 1, 2021 I’ve thought that playing .500 ball for the remainder of the season gets them the division easily. I still think that’s true, but I’m getting more and more concerned that they won’t be playing .500 baseball. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That is a real insult to Ventura Moncada is over hyped and can’t make a patch on Ventura’s ass Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They pulled this crap end of year last year too Yep, acting like they clinched it already. Shades of 2006 right now with the poor play after the ASB to go with horrible outfield defense.

chw42 Posted August 1, 2021 Share Posted August 1, 2021 Hopefully this is Quantrill's last inning. Go take some pitches against him and run the pitch count up. We just can't hit him. We've gotten 2 runs off him in like 17 innings. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SoxAce Posted August 1, 2021 Share Posted August 1, 2021 I love Lopez new spead up delivery. Just get the ball and throw it young man. It's like he won't be in his own head so much. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He is not nearly as dedicated to the game and becoming a great player as he should be. He has all the tools for sure it's the mental side of the game where he is lacking. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
