Weird, when you start the season with a "who cares, we're entitled to the postseason so lets rest/sleepwalk" attitude, you stink. When you start the season with a "lets win a championship" attitude, you win a championship. So strange. Totally agreed. Last year, we heard about all kinds of team dinners and bonding exercises in spring training. Cora came in lightning-focused and on a mission, and the team played up to that. This year, I don’t care about the starting pitching not being ready (if that’s the plan), but the whole team just looks unfocused. Mental mistakes, poor defense - stuff we just didn’t see last year. It’s hard not to feel that maybe they came into spring training a bit complacent and entitled.

Sox leaving another floater in the bowl. Last year they destroyed NL teams on a regular basis, thought maybe they could right the ship here but it aint happening, because the team they are playing not likely to make the playoffs.

Rays have improved their playoff odds the most with their start, and the Sox odds have decreased the second most behind only the Cubs. This is before tonight's likely loss and the Rays win again.

When do we start *at least* questioning the catchers’ game calling? Or maybe it’s just the pitchers’ execution/lack of stuff at this point in the season. But something is clearly off.

We all WISH it was as easy as pitch calling Not the issue. Vazquez was behind the dish exclusively in the World Series run

Devers has been putrid since the season started. He swings too hard and has no plate discipline. He is not on a plane with Yankees' Andujar or Torres. Send him down and get tutored or he will continue to be a liability offensively and defensively....and an ultimate bust.

So how loud are the boos going to be at the home opener? Dude, they're not going to get booed as they're introduced at home. They're getting f'ng world series rings. They might get booed if they get their asses kicked during the game after the introductions and ceremonies (where they'll get huge deserved cheers because winning a World Series carries more weight than starting the season 3-8 or whatever the hell it is). I mean, would you rather they didn't win the Series and they came home with a 6-5 record or something?
