Do the Sox actually have a decent hitter in Beni for 2025? His batting average still blows but how can you deny he's had a great run? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Capn12 Posted September 17 Share Posted September 17 No way I can stay up to see the end of this one. We may be on our way to screwing up the one thing that looked inevitable, in the all time worst team in history... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JUSTgottaBELIEVE Posted September 17 Share Posted September 17 Beni going to end the season with the highest OPS of Sox regulars? Would be funny considering his start Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
greg775 Posted September 17 Share Posted September 17 I see Cannon is a third round pick. Is he pretty good? Seems like he competes out there. Does he lend us some hope or is he a stiff? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Late night West Coast games are known for late inning collapses...this one is not guaranteed. I'll check in the morning to see if winning streak is alive.

joejoesox Posted September 17 Share Posted September 17 I appreciate the fact that Ramos has busted his ass to get back to the big leagues but dude looks completely overmatched and nowhere close to being ready, neither him nor Vargas are MLB ready Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chw42 Posted September 17 Share Posted September 17 It's gonna take a 7-4 finish to tie the Tigers for the worst record in the 162 game era. I don't see it happening, but maybe they have something cooking right now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

greg775 Posted September 17 Share Posted September 17 This is going to turn out funny remember you heard it here first. Sox are playing some very bad teams and are gonna finish on an incredibly positive note. Sizemore keeps the job for sure and we try to ride this pitching staff and the resurgent Vaughn/Beni to contention. What really will happen will be not a 35 or 42 win season but prolly 49-50 wins next year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Probably the biggest fear is we end up sticking with Sizemore for another year. The only thing that has really changed are the Burke start, and Benintendi and Vaughn looking like halfway decent big league ballplayers. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If that happens they most likely will end up with someone worse. Every organization has a Vargas or 2 to pawn off the Sox. Of course the Sox organizations has plenty of those anyway. The plot will be #MakeBirminghamBetter. Edited September 17 by kitekrazy 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And left-handed hitter. Especially if you weren't getting a young, prospect who's clock hadn't started anyway. Of course, I would still complain that they traded for someone who's clock started and is older, but with the power of hindsight, I can say I would have preferred Outman to Vargas.
