wegner Posted May 1, 2022 Share Posted May 1, 2022 Gave em a finish. Let's give em more of a start next time, huh. I blame this loss on Rick Hahn for not signing Tepera....run outta bullpen $$?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sadly the Twins are probably better. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fathom Posted May 1, 2022 Share Posted May 1, 2022 I missed the whole game, but nice to see the awesome combo of Grandal and McGuire go hitless. This team freaking sucks. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
almagest Posted May 1, 2022 Share Posted May 1, 2022 Tough to score 6 in an inning. Didn’t think I’d say this after the first 8 innings but pitching let us down today. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
South Side Hit Men Posted May 1, 2022 Share Posted May 1, 2022 The long delay between the 8th and 9th (long ass Top of 9) really impacted Lorenzen, IMO. But it was nice to see the Sox battle back. Maddon should have had Tepara warming to start the 9th, saved Iglesias for an actual save situation (tomorrow, or if necessary today). Closers seem to shit the bed with a 4 + run lead.

This team freaking sucks. The offense finally waking up for an inning wasn’t enough to overcome Keuchel and some bad D. There is something very wrong with this team.

They were hoping the SP and bullpen would mask a lot of the offensive and defensive flaws. They were also hoping the weak division would inflate the record. We have a good team but not a special one at this point. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And right now the Sox aren’t anywhere close to a good team. You are what your record is. Maybe they become a good team when everyone is healthy, but we’ve seen that this is a collection of players that doesn’t really stay healthy. You can believe anything you want. It’s a flawed roster that can’t hit RHP, which we knew last year, the FO did NOTHING to address it and guess what…..it’s coming back to bite them.

caulfield12 Posted May 2, 2022 Share Posted May 2, 2022 Crazy thing is they just go 6-7 instead of 2-11 and they’re in first place by 1 1/2 to 2 1/2 as one or two of those wins would have come against the Twins. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sorry, but this in bold is totally unacceptable to me. This organization - and it’s players - did not deserve to have all of these injuries. Part of the losing is that. Should Harrison and Garcia and Pollock be contributing more? Sure. I think people really need to cool it with rushing to some broad sweeping conclusion about the entire team and organization and rebuild arc. Good teams do go through bad stretches sometimes lasting 15-20 games. The jury is still out. yes the team on the field is not playing good baseball right now, but in no way was this organization off in assembling the major pieces of this team. If they get fully healthy by June 1, I still think they win no less than 85 games. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Having a GM for the last decade that still hasn’t won a playoff series. Having a GM show zero interest in bringing back one of their best performing pitchers last year, and replace him with Vince Velasquez. Having s GM be fully aware he built a lineup that isn’t capable to hitting RHP, and doing nothing to address it in the offseason. Having a FO take their Opening Day starter to arbitration over $50,000. Having ownership dig LaRussa out of the ground to manage the team. Sorry, I’m not going to “cool it.” Deal with it. 1 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
