BigEdWalsh Posted August 16, 2015 Share Posted August 16, 2015 QUOTE (fathom @ Aug 15, 2015 -> 06:56 PM) This weekend was the last 3 games I cared if the Sox won. Rest of the year, especially playoffs, will be hoping anyone but the Cubs win the WS. For once I actually agree with you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

soxfan49 Posted August 16, 2015 Share Posted August 16, 2015 QUOTE (SouthSideSale @ Aug 15, 2015 -> 08:53 PM) This team sucks. It's a shame. They've got a ways to go and sometimes ya gotta wonder can they get it done. I can't do the hiring or firing so I have to keep faith. You hear about these prospects teams have had in the last 5-8 years- Trout, Bryant, Hosmer, McCutchen, deGrom- yet none of them are ever with the Sox. They continuously have absolutely no farm system. Hawk made a comment yesterday that the Cubs should have great prospects since they've stunk for so long. Seriously? The Sox have stunk almost every year since 2006 and they have jack s*** in Charlotte. And please, don't give me that Erik Johnson, Micah Johnson, Tim Anderson garbage because those are 3 guys who will never be anything significant for this team.

fathom Posted August 16, 2015 Share Posted August 16, 2015 (edited) QUOTE (CaliSoxFanViaSWside @ Aug 16, 2015 -> 02:00 AM) Cubs don't stand a chance this year. I hope you're right, but why not? Two aces, a great bullpen and a much improved offense since Schwarber got included. I still think they should have been more aggressive at the deadline to add a top pitcher to go along with Arrieta and Lester.
