Pitching was ok. No hitting again.

At least the game was over in quick fashion.

The Sox are 74 and 74 with 14 games left
Does any one truly believe they can finish above 500.  I predicted at best an 80 win season with terrible defense.  I was right about the defense.  I think my prediction of a sub 500 season is looking pretty good now.

Any of my friends out there think as I do that it looks like this team has just thrown in the towel and couldn't care less if they even won another game this season.   The rot that has permeated this organization is going to take more than a shower to dissipate.  It may now take a total  @$%&+?#%&!%%&??               to get the filth and slime out of its system.

Back in the cellar.

Looking like a low-teens draft placement again. Silver linings.

Verdugo needs a couple of days off.

Verdugo needs a couple of days off.

Luckily a new Ops guy will get the draft pick.  This time get a college pitcher in first round, we already have too many SS's !
