Things are falling apart in Boston

Ugly loss to Minnesota last night. Last place in the AL East.

John Farrell is running out of answers.

After an 8-4 loss to the Twins that saw the Red Sox relinquish a 4-0 lead thanks to three errors, a failed catch near the wall in left field, two baserunning mistakes and one wrong decision by third base coach Brian Butterfield, the manager tried to describe what might have been the ugliest loss of a Red Sox’ season that has seen plenty of them.

Silly Panda leaving a good thing in San Fran for the chowds.  

[fan_since79]

They've got third-base coach problems too.

I was watching sportscenter the other day (my bad) and when the Sox game came on, the host simply said, "Nation baseball...."

Buster Olney said yesterday Boston still wins the East. Peter Gammons also thinks so as well

[ELEVEN]

Eeriely reminiscent.

So glad things aren't working out.

Good. They're a bunch of douchebags (Farrell included) and I love seeing them fail.

[Tank]

hope they finish 20-142.

It's a lock

 

Their starters have an era of 4.76.  Worst in the AL

[Dick B Back]

Too much chicken and beer in the clubhouse again?

But they got him for the playoffs, you guys.

[Jobu]

And while I always enjoy pissing in the chowder they are the same number of games out of first as us.

[m0nkey]

Yet they're only 5.5 out

Gammons is a Boston homer, born and raised in Massachusetts, worked at the Boston Globe. Olney grew up in Vermont.

Their pitching is dreadful and they banked on offense and it's not working out. Hanley has been hurt (per usual) and a lot of their guys are getting old and the prospects still haven't really panned out. Don't know how anyone picked them to do anything. Id rather watch our stagnant offense than their pitching

"And we's talkin about the regular season!"

[Angel Oracle]

Porcello ain't faring too well either in his new digs.

with 4 teams ahead of them

[Docwaukee]

and their record is actually a bit lucky.  

 

If I am the owner or GM of that team, and I see the mental lapses and sloppy play, there is no chance in hell I bring in Cole Hamels.  They spent a kagillion dollars this off season on the likes of Panda and Ramirez and then they are surprised when guys aren't trying that hard?  That's funny.  

 

It's like signing Hamilton and being surprised when he relapses.
