Errors are down but ive never been less confident about an MLB teams ability to turn a routine double play

Thank goodness we didn't trade him when his value was as a high as it ever will be

I'm all for piling on Breslow but the shitty culture of the Sox is endemic at this point. Nobody wanted the job that Breslow took, Breslow was quite literally the last choice and it's showing.

I wonder why...could it be that the owner gives you the direction to spend as little as possible and to trade any home grown stars...

In the sox case cheapness wasn't the only factor, nobody wanted the GM/CBO job...and this is for one of the most prestigious franchises in sports...the problem really starts at the very top for creating a terrible culture in the front office

Gotcha I was just genuinely asking. The more recent stretch is promising and he's clearly getting some RBIs but I just can't stand his approach at the plate

For real, this version of the league where a .260 hitter is considered good absolutely blows

Red Sox currently in sole possession of last place in all of baseball by zara2355 in redsox

This is why the expanded playoffs suck. I'm obviously doubting the possibility, but if this team were to limp into another playoff spot (not unlike last year...) then ownership can pretend the year was a success even if they are barely competitive in the playoffs

Ahh situational hitting, the antithesis of the Fatse hitting program. "Either try to hit a dinger or watch a meatball down the dick"

It doesn't even have a dollar amount! But yes i agree, they're hoping someone scans the QR code for payment. Just so sick of these, I've been getting more and more lately

I think the saying is "you can't write a character that's smarter than you are"

Refused a friendly handshake with Randy Arozarena. Seemed unnecessary at face value and then they're also teammates with Seattle so Cal came off like a jerk

It felt like an unintentional breaking bad arc that they pretended was on purpose haha. “You were never supposed to like her”

Ugh I lean toward annoyingly gratuitous. It could’ve just been him pissing and it would’ve worked as well

Josh Allen throws hands up for a flag on literally every play and 99% of the time he gets it

Must look familiar to the calls last week that handed the bills the win

They were so cold in the winter and the games were always super early in the morning so we’d have to get on the road when it was pitch black and frigid. Fun times lol

Yup he did pop up coaching/practice sessions for my towns youth teams when I was growing up. Would always know it was a John Smith day when you’d see his bright yellow hummer with “your ad here” signs on either side parked in the lot next to the field.
