9/1 vs. the Royals. I'm so excited.

[LogansDad]

I would like to apologize for anything good I ever said about this team, and any time I ever showed excitement for it.

 

[Philip Jeff Frye]

What a disgrace

 

[JCizzle]

Remember when Brandon Walter was untradeable at the 2021 deadline? Secret high riser? Or was it the 2022 deadline?

You can't trade the prospects and you can't promote them because they suck. Schrodingering's prospect system.

BUT 2024's promotions will solve it all. If not, then 2025 is right there!

 

[mauidano]

Another instance of the Sox facing a team when they are red hot.

starting today they got hot. Lost 6 in a row and 1-9 last 10. The Sox are the team you get healthy against.

This is the problem with banking on prospects, most of them fail.

205 prospects and can’t trade any of them.

 

[JCizzle]

205 prospects and can’t trade any of them.

Just wait until we have Tek developing them in the bigs !

 

[Bergs]

Are we having fun yet?

 

[JOBU]

Absolute embarrassment

 

[soxin6]

Fuck off Cora, Bloom, and Paxton. Another pitcher fed to the wolves.

 

[Philip Jeff Frye]

Time for that Krustyburgler gif.

 

[barclay]

And just like that the Royals have scored more runs tonight than in any game they have played this season -- and by far the greatest margin of victory. Great effort, Sox!

 

[BaseballJones]

Most embarrassing game of the season, right? Just getting absolutely demolished by the godawful Royals, looking totally lifeless against a guy with a mid 6 era coming in.

 

[SemperFidelisSox]

Breaking Bad.

 

[JCizzle]

And just like that the Royals have scored more runs tonight than in any game they have played this season -- and by far the greatest margin of victory. Great effort, Sox!

Football season is a week away. The team completed their mission in my books.

 

[simplicio]

This is two years running where it's been the Royals who have extinguished the slightest whiff of optimism about the Red Sox.

 

[zenax]

And just like that the Royals have scored more runs tonight than in any game they have played this season -- and by far the greatest margin of victory. Great effort, Sox!

Beat me to it, and they still have two more innings in which to hit.

 

[Petagine in a Bottle]

Sox would be in 2nd place in the AL Central.

 

[simplicio]

Fuck it, I hope Lyles gets the cgso here.

 

[LogansDad]

Sox would be in 2nd place in the AL Central.

Nah, cuz the other teams in the ALC would have won more games if you added more Red Sox to their schedule.

 

[barclay]

They are SO bad that my feelings of utter disgust have turned into astonishment. I mean, they are astonishingly, spectacularly bad. And thats something.

 

[JCizzle]

Sox would be in 2nd place in the AL Central.

 

[mauidano]

Most embarrassing game of the season, right? Just getting absolutely demolished by the godawful Royals, looking totally lifeless against a guy with a mid 6 era coming in.

Absolutely yes. Sadly, this is probably not the bottom.

 

[Joe Shlabotnick]

Sox players post-game: “well you just have to tip your cap to him” (Lyles).

 

[SemperFidelisSox]

Sox would be in 2nd place in the AL Central.

“We spent more days in 2nd place in the AL Central” - Bloom

 

[Bergs]

Yeah, DOB, there aren't any more "big series" this season.

 

[Bergs]

Rooting for Sal here. Not really, but kinda.

 

[Petagine in a Bottle]

Hey, we are still a top 15 team. It’s all about perspective.

 

[DennyDoyle'sBoil]

I fucking hate the Red Sox.

 

[DeadlySplitter]

This team has clearly shown Bloom has not (yet) built a sustainable pitching staff for a full major league season. Is his seat any hotter after this week of games?

 

[Petagine in a Bottle]

Looks like Trevor Story has hit the wall for this season .

 

[DennyDoyle'sBoil]

This team has clearly shown Bloom has not (yet) built a sustainable pitching staff for a full major league season. Is his seat any hotter after this week of games?

No way. They need to make the playoffs next year. But they would never do anything right now. It would be crazy.

 

[JCizzle]

This team has clearly shown Bloom has not (yet) built a sustainable pitching staff for a full major league season. Is his seat any hotter after this week of games?

Is it 2039 yet? If not, we need to give the farm some time. You can't expect prospects to take less than two decades to develop.

 

[E5 Yaz]

I fucking hate the Red Sox.

More than blueberries?

 

[DennyDoyle'sBoil]

More than blueberries?

More than penguins, even.

 

[JOBU]

Most embarrassing game of the season, right?

Most embarrassing game of the season, so far.

 

[JOBU]

Looks like Trevor Story has hit the wall for this season .

Was he ever off the wall?

 

[simplicio]

This team has clearly shown Bloom has not (yet) built a sustainable pitching staff for a full major league season. Is his seat any hotter after this week of games?

Maybe his big long conversation with Verdugo the other day was asking Dugie to be a starter this month.

 

[mauidano]

I fucking hate the Red Sox.

More than Mookie?

 

[Papo The Snow Tiger]

This team has clearly shown Bloom has not (yet) built a sustainable pitching staff for a full major league season. Is his seat any hotter after this week of games?

Only if John Henry actually cares.

 

[Bergs]

Mookie WHO????

 

[mauidano]

The comeback begins!!!

 

[barclay]

ALRIGHT! Not so much the homer but that we get to see Raffy Jr bat again

 

[DennyDoyle'sBoil]

More than Mookie?

No. Not quite.

 

[Petagine in a Bottle]

Maybe his big long conversation with Verdugo the other day was asking Dugie to be a starter this month.

he has always wanted to pitch!

 

[DennyDoyle'sBoil]

The ump squeezed Lyles. He came a millimeter from having a start better than any Red Sox has had all year. Which is shocking. He sucks.

 

[DeadlySplitter]

Alright then, let me pose another question... Cora? This looks like a quitting team since Monday.

 

[LogansDad]

Can they send Abreu and Ceddane back to AAA so they don't end up poisoned by this shit show?

 

[AB in DC]

No position player on the mound? Phooey.

 

[E5 Yaz]

No position player on the mound? Phooey.

The only guy left, I think, is McGuire
