  1. Very disappointing game. Could have went totally different but it feels like you could say that about a good chunk of our losses this season.

  2. Pedro is in over his head. I mean so is almost the entire front office but…Pedro is not a good manager.

  3. Would be really fucking cool if Robert was batting 2 instead of Tim. Passed on Bochy and Espada for Grifol lol.

  4. A’s fan so I come in piece. What happened to Tim Anderson? 0 home runs?

  5. Blaming this on Pedro again. Stop starting games with Banks and just pitch Jesse, stop batting Tim 2nd.

    This is not rocket science. Grow a pair and bench him or move him down in the lineup and if he throws a fit trade him, if his ego is so huge he can’t be moved in the lineup I don’t want him

    E: Also this season isn’t salvageable. Call up Colas and Sosa. Fucking loser organization, loser owner, loser team moves. And yes, I legit am blaming this on Pedro. Pedro is legitimately so bad that he has brainwashed me into thinking I could manage the team better than him right now. That’s how utterly atrocious he has become. I defended him in other comments but fuck him at this point.

  6. I would pay money to ask Jerry why he thinks Kenny is good at his job and deserves to be a president of ops

  7. I hate this Sox season. Maybe my wife wants to go to Bears camp. Kinda been there done that, but I’ve never been to Halas Hall, even if it is just outside. Idk. Getting thin.

  8. Anyone who wasn’t expecting to lose this series at this point is a moron

  9. Do MLB players get regular vision checks? I’m serious, what if TA needs glasses and he doesn’t realize it

  10. At this point, we should have fucking hired Ozzie. This is so pathetic. Fire Pedro, Fire Hahn, Sell the Team Jerry. Need an absolute reset at this point

  11. Sox win tomorrow and lose Sunday. That’s the script. Except last weekend.

    Also: it’s Pedrover

  12. The roster construction is just horrible. Honest question, how many guys other than Robert and a couple AAA callups are plus defenders? The majority of the roster can’t field, throw or run. Yoan is good at third but can’t stay on the lineup. AV looks more and more like a DH. Andrus isn’t actually a 2b. TA might as well be swinging blindfolded and certainly isn’t a wizard at SS. Yaz might as well just forfeit second base on every single the pitchers give up since he can barely even lob it across the Diamond. How many more times do we have to see Sheets get turned around in RF. Burger at 3B…yeah. Beni might be the second best defender on the team. They’ve almost completely disregarded half the sport in assembling this lineup. Maybe even more than half the sport considering they can’t run and aren’t exactly hitting it out of the park at a decent rate. It’s really amazing how poor the roster is after a decade of rebuilding.

  13. ![gif](giphy|TslhOkvop5fIbTevw7)

    Bruh losing to the worse team in baseball no surprise…oh wait that’s us actually

  14. OF COURSE WE LOST TO THE A’S!

    Everybody knew we were gonna lose to the team that’s tanking, and I am not surprised. I am.. mad that I am not surprised with a WIN.

    Good LORD, this team makes no sense.

  15. TA can’t get a hit. Let him sit for a few games. Then drop him in the lineup. Why do we fans have to tell Pedro what to do?

  16. I went from hating Pedro to actually just feeling bad for him because this guy is in so far over his head. I would respect him a lot if he stepped down because he’s not clearly a major league manager I don’t even know if he’s capable of coaching above the single a level in that position.

  17. Well I’m glad I skipped going to this game. Went fishing instead. Didn’t catch a damn thing. 10/10 would do it again. Going tomorrow though. Glad I’ll get to see cease.

  18. This season I’ve just resorted to being a bandwagon Reds fan. They have that electric energy that I thought this Sox team would have but never got. Every call up they’ve had this season is contributing, Steer, McCain, De La Cruz. What I would give to see this shit on the South Side.
