Spumoni Posted August 18, 2022 Share Posted August 18, 2022 Pin this one on Kopech and Romy needlessly giving up a run in the first and Harrison for sucking ass. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Leonard Zelig Posted August 18, 2022 Share Posted August 18, 2022 Damn, would have been nice to do it again, but the 6-9 in that lineup is just not doing anything. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ducksnort Posted August 18, 2022 Share Posted August 18, 2022 Welp, they had opportunities. Forget about tonight and win the series tomorrow. Also Detroit Sucks. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know there are extenuating circumstances for that, but Andrus is almost certainly a better player than him at this point Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No clutch hitting tonight. No running game and several double plays also hurt. The bottom part of the lineup tonight is not competitive for a contender. Wasted another great pitching performance. Let’s get them tomorrow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The problem is we can't drive the ball. This team could win the division but this isn't a WS caliber team. It's sad because it seems like the team just broke overnight. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hankchifan Posted August 18, 2022 Share Posted August 18, 2022 A good take away this week has been that we showed we can be competitive against the Astros. Should give us more confidence going forward. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fathom Posted August 18, 2022 Share Posted August 18, 2022 So Robert still might not play the next few days. They also can’t retroactively IL him now. Can’t wait to hear how the training staff blew this one. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Royals suck too. Can u believe the Sox lost 3 of 4 to KC most recently and you just know they'll lose that funky make up game to make it four of five which is simply ridiculous.

Grandal just stinks. That was the Sox chance right there. Both veterans failed big time. Grandal was just a horrible acquisition and Pollock ... whatever on him. Personally I don't like him but last time I ripped him on here I got buried. Some fans like him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lip Man 1 Posted August 18, 2022 Share Posted August 18, 2022 I have no idea how this compares to the rest of MLB teams but the Sox have now scored three runs or less in 59 of the 118 games they've played this season. That's 50% of all games. To me, that's simply not very good. At this point in time "it is what it is" as Kenny Williams once famously said. I can't see it suddenly changing much over the last six weeks especially given that injuries are continuing to gut the team. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
