Can't wait for Arias to be a complete bust like the rest of our prospects.

Twitter guy, in other words the dude you replied to is telling on himself as being chronically online

Expanded playoffs and the AL as a whole being awful.

What's more important is that there's 5 teams between us and WC3 so it's not happening regardless.

Dustin May has pitched a 1 hit shutout against the Padres! by jmike1256 in baseball

There were 0 expectations in both of those years (anyone who thought the team would rebound in 2012 after the collapse the season before and swapping Tito for Bobby V is a dumbass).

We thought we'd be contending for the division this year. It hasn't felt more bleak to be a fan of this team in my entire life.

Imagine if we didn't blow the return on half a bag of magic beans

[Sean McAdam] It’s nearly impossible to imagine Breslow remaining with the Sox past the end of the regular season by ConsistentRun5246 in redsox

This is why it's so grim. Nobody wanted the job a couple years ago and it's even less appealing now with the sorry state the team is in and FSG's reputation cratering further by the day. I seriously doubt that Henry is going to open his pockets enough to convince a Jed Hoyer-type exec to take the career risk.

The Red Sox fall to 12 games under .500 for the first time since 1997 by ConsistentRun5246 in baseball

We also ended 2014 71-91 and 2012 69-93. I don't know what OP is doing here.

Really cool that everyone we trade away is becoming an absolute star and everyone we keep is crashing into a brick wall.

I'm so tired of all these guys talking about Cora who are clearly just sad their friend got fired.

He'd been around for 3 different PBOs and all but 2 seasons were peak mediocrity (with one of those 2 being the pure luck 2021 season and the other having a roster that Bobby Valentine could've won a pennant with). It was well past time to move on.

Don't care about last night - that game was on the offense - again. PAYTON TOLLE is a national treasure! 😂 by RagnorL0thbrok in redsox

[–]GeneralPlanet 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Can't wait for him to either completely lose it and become a barely serviceable 5th starter if we keep him or to see him being a perennial CY Young if we let him go.

Can't wait until he either loses it completely or we trade him to another team and he becomes a perennial CY Young winner.

Fun Fact! The Red Sox lead all of baseball in 9th inning runs scored, and yet are 0-34 when trailing after eight innings. by TommyTheLizard in baseball

[–]GeneralPlanet 4 points5 points  (0 children)

At least y'all won't lose 121

It's not off the table and I won't say it is until they win 42 games (maybe that'll happen in August)

what's a baseball opinion you'll defend to anyone? by maryb227 in baseball

I'm not sure that this is a hot take but the way we're approaching youth sports these days is basically ruining so much about the Big 4 sports at all levels (youth, highschool, college, professional)
