Math time:

if Cleveland goes 21-21 with one win vs the Sox, we have to play .600 ball the final 40 to pass them. Something we can’t do apparently.

I would be surprised if they play .500 ball. That seems to be a lot to ask for

The Sox couldn't even play .600 ball against some of the worst teams in baseball during a 19 game stretch.

And then the team miraculously stays in the race somehow. But they don't ever do enough to take control of the division or go on any prolonged runs that make you think they're good. This season really has been the equivalent of baseball hell.

It’s why I said earlier that Robert will tear his ACL or Cease will blow out his arm.  It would be the perfect way to ruin next year during the worst year ever.

Lets not forget with men on 2nd and 3rd and 1 out . TLR could've hit Sheets  for Harrison vs. a RH.

You are absolutely right.  No sense of urgency again from TLR.  Harrison strikes out stays in the game and makes an error right away.  Sheets a potential home run hitter stays on the bench The whole game against a bunch of righty pitchers.

You obviously forgot 1968, 1973, 1984, 1995 and 2009...those were also awful seasons where the Sox were expected to do well and fell flat on their faces.

Catcher, RF, LF, IB and DH

They may play them but they are clear liabilities out there. Eloy and Vaughn are horrible outfielders that cost you runs and ultimately games. Grandal is not even close to being worth the 15 or so million we pay him, Seby is a more productive catcher at this point. Grandal has thrown out 17% of guys attempting to steal this year, down from 19% last year. He is not good, his defensive WAR is -.1 over his 3 years with the Sox. Sheets is a decent 1B and Abreu is OK. But those other 3 have no business being in the OF and catching.
