southsider2k5 Posted August 29, 2024 Share Posted August 29, 2024 The Sox are so weird right now. They straight up won't play certain guys... until they become a trainwreck, and once that happens, they play every single dang day. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Expand Every decision maker should be fired, but of course they won’t. They should be so embarrassed at the return they got for Fedde and Kopech. They would have received so much more if they waited until the offseason, but they just had to have zero tool Vargas. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Capn12 Posted August 29, 2024 Share Posted August 29, 2024 I'm feeling pretty confident here, in both our record in games after 6 when trailing, AND...just our ass team. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fathom Posted August 29, 2024 Share Posted August 29, 2024 It’s amazing that Getz has put together a team with a RF and 3B that have no power at all. It’s quite the strategy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Expand It’s not hard to figure out. Robert, nowhere near his potential. Eloy, not even close. Yoan, apparently doesn’t even want to play anymore. Kopech, horribly below expectations. What’s the common variable here? Maybe ask the former Director of Player Development, I hate to say it but Montgomery is going down the same path and it looks like Colas and Sosa are already halfway there… 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Expand Same swings over and over again regardless of the count, besides being one of the worst teams of all time, they are also the dumbest. Lopez is a joke at lead off, never tries to put the ball in play, home run swings all the time and he’s not a homer hitter, hasn’t come close all year. Has anyone on this team ever tried choking up, what a novel idea that would be. Somehow Getz has to be held accountable, he put together this horrendous team and hopefully is fired at the end of the year.

caulfield12 Posted August 29, 2024 Share Posted August 29, 2024 (edited) If they do beat the 62 Mets record it's all Get is going to hear the entire off season.
