    9/16 Royals @ Red Sox

    What happened, did you guys totally give up on 2022 ? I missed this week working in Las Vegas so only saw lowlights and bad play. Anyway, thought it was important to get all 162 games on the Mike Grace thread, even if Trevor Story can't show up each night. Sore heel ?

    Anyway , thread started in 5th inning with 0-0 score at Fenway. So there is still a chance .


    Yes, I know... what difference does it make now.

    Sad to watch but Martinez is literally just waving his bat at FBs. He should be the one taking the next few weeks off before he winds up hitting below .270./.750

    You can have Kike Hernandez and do what you will with him. Another bases full GIDP , after taking an actual strike 3 , well within the box, and getting the gift from the ChUmp. Also cannot time jumps in CF at the wall. Creates a triple.

    Only the Sox in 2022 can get 2 walks, followed by a groundball single and not score from second base in a force out situation. You have to be running hard in that situation.

    2 hits through 5 innings off a pitcher with a 5++ ERA

    This team is no better than the Royals. They SUCK!
    It’s going to take years before they are remotely interesting to watch.
    We deserve an apology and Prune Face needs to sell the team.

    I noticed JD was on second in the bottom of the 7th and no pinch runner. It won't happen, but I truly wish the SOX would start the 2023 season w/o Cora. He truly hasn't a clue.

    Kike had to get a promise from the GM that the SOX would be improved next year before he signed his extension. After Kike signed he thought about it and realized if Bloom just extended me, he has no intention of improving next year's team.

    Another excellent start by Wacha. He deserved much better.

    The improvement would be to trade Kike over the winter.

    Other than missing Story, a questionable miss, this is pretty much a standard lineup for 2022. Can these guys eke out 2 runs in the 8th and 9th to make it worth their while to show up ? Pitiful to get shutout by a losing KC pitcher

    There's no shortage of shite chUMPS in MLB.

    Almonte has a physique similar to Devers and Vogelsang. Hasn't missed a postgame meal in quite a while

    Pham with two on and no outs pops out, dropping below .700 OPS.

    Bases loaded, 1 out for X. Please pull this one out

    Xander K's on 4 pitches , all slurves, none of which came near the plate
    A walk would have tied the game, and he choked on it

    Where's that wild pitch when you need it. Plenty of games left for Bogey to go below .300.
