laughedatbytime Posted August 10, 2015 Share Posted August 10, 2015 Where Red Sox fans can talk about the past, and everyone else can talk about the franchise's present. Look, a 2 game winning streak. Only 50 more in a row and it's another 100 win season. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
g under p Posted August 10, 2015 Share Posted August 10, 2015 Well, they're in last place and can't seem to pitch or hit worth a damn and trying to get out of the basement. I had a great time at a spring Training game in Jupiter FL. Met some nice fans who came over from Fort Meyers....loved the thick Beantown accents. At least they don't have the worst record in baseball that belongs to the Marlins. Going to see the Sox on Wednesday play those sorry Marlins. The Sox better win.

If MusicHead was a Sawx fan he would have already picked another team. That's how bad this team is. Maybe Ben Cherington thought this year's WS championship would be determined by summing up age * 10 + weight instead of on the field It's important to have a GM that knows the rules.

Disembodied Spirit Posted August 11, 2015 Share Posted August 11, 2015 With the Sox it is hard to imagine 2 Years ago at this time they were on the cusp of that World Series win in 2013.A fast 2 year fall for sure.But that team was Veteran heavy. And that is always a short term solution. Sox appear to be finally letting youngsters play everyday.A mostly injured Pedroia has not helped in 2015. I thought Panda would do more, than gain weight in Boston. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I guess your above post counts as mentioning the 2015 Red Sox, so congrats on that.
