Reese thanks for taking 3 in a row
Bloom I hope you had plenty of sleep this summer because you have work to do.

JD - June - .232-3-10 July - .210-1-7. August - .214-2-10 September so far - 4 for 15,0-1 Three plus months - 6 HR, 27 RBI, and a batting average around .220 Why is he still getting ABs? That puts him at .266 in September. So, your point is that he's heating up?

That MUST be rock bottom. The 28-5 game with Toronto was much more entertaining than seeing that boring mess in front of about 67 people.

I feel like this was a scheduled loss. 11 pages for a 3 game series with the Rays says it all.

Cora is a guy that's been incredibly loyal to veteran players in the second half of this year, to a fault. Between Bloom keeping the bottom feeder bullpen arms and Cora keeping on playing veterans that don't deserve chances. That's been the worst part of 2022.

Honestly, I don't care if the Sox get swept. I'd like to see TB pressure the Yankees, not that it really matters a heckuva lot. They all go to the playoffs anyways. Maybe it would be fine for the Sox, if for nothing else, to simply rest John Schreiber. I'd like him to be fresh next year. Right now I'd like him to be their closer for next year. No sense burning him out. Ummm..yup..

For the rest of this sorry season - I would be fine seeing the following
Starters
Wacha Pivetta Bello Crawford if he gets off the IL Winckowski or Seabold
send Hill to the pen or sit him.
Pen
Schreiber Whitlock Strahm (maybe - not fond of lefty relivers) Kelly Ort Bazardo Danish (maybe - but I am not fond of him in general)
I guess we are stuck with Barnes
cut Brasier and Familia
add German
Offense
where can we find offense?
Sit JD cut Plawecki bring Jaylin Davis back Almonte - really?
I actually have no idea how to fix the offense this year. Duran again? Dalbec again?

Hmmm, maybe there is something to the whole people worrying about future contracts and it affecting their play thing. Kiké gets a new deal a rips off a 2 for 5 performance.

Let Dalbec and Duran get their heads right in Worcester To make the games even remotely enjoyable to watch? To test a few things out to see which pieces should fit next year?

Red Sox winning 4 straight against Texas killed the enjoyment of even bottoming out. Really, it's just spring training at this point. I'm just hoping they release JDM and just play as many of the kids as possible to play out the string.

Can't say Dalbec or Duran make them any easier to watch. They dont really fit the 2023 roster. There's a DH opening and I want no part of Dalbec in that role. Hernandez back for a season is not a vote of confidence for Duran who'd be better off elsewhere, playing a different position.

Enmanuel Valdez should be our Sept DH

A break after Nightmare in Tampa. My wife and I are in Vermont until Sunday for a wedding. I'll return to the dead Sox when we get back. So sad, this season, in so many ways.

Can't win a game, but at least there's this.

Good lord. The hits just keep on coming! The buy out has already been counted against the CBT. It doesn't matter.
