In this situation, with the desperation this team has, you HAVE to put away Cleveland, and not even give them a positive to feel good about as you leave. This! These are playoff games now and should be treated as such. Every game is a must win. Simple. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

oldsox Posted September 15, 2022 Share Posted September 15, 2022 Graveman very lucky to get out of that inning unscathed. Last guys swung at bad pitches, plus the catch in left. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HoosierSox Posted September 15, 2022 Share Posted September 15, 2022 We're all Twins fans now for 4 days starting tomorrow. If they take 3 out of 5 and Sox sweep the Tigers the Sox would be 1 game back heading into the Cle series. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Harry Chappas Posted September 15, 2022 Share Posted September 15, 2022 Was in a meeting all afternoon. greatly productive meeting and just read this thread without knowing anything. Great win. I would have s%*# all over this team in B1but alas the big bastard won the day. There really had to be a philosophical shift when Tony left...there is now way that happens. I have no clue what this team is any more but love that the 3 runs or less thing is a day or two and not a week or two. Andrus for 2B next year.

35thstreetswarm Posted September 15, 2022 Share Posted September 15, 2022 I'm a certified TLR hater, but it's pretty funny that we can now point to both the team's losses (because TLR is like sort of back with the team in the skybox) and wins (because TLR isn't actually managing) as evidence that TLR is the problem. ? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This good run under Cairo has confirmed that TLR is indefensible. If TLR would have been removed earlier, Sox probably walk away with the division. Unfortunately, it is now probably too late.

Hope that satisfies the old coot. You think Manfred would step in to prevent Jerry from cycling through interim managers for the next 12 + seasons until Tony passes Connie Mack? They can just wheel in Tony or his frozen body to the dugout for the 3,731st and 3,732nd win, after which Tony can officially retire. There are no written rules preventing this scenario, and Tony is the only person who knows whether there are unwritten rules against this scheme.
