Pretty obvious this team's hitting approach is f***ing atrocious. Nine f***ing singles. Turned power hitters into f***ing slap hitting singles hitters... f*** them.

I've never seen such a regression in power throughout a lineup in all my time watching the Sox. They will be lucky to have two players over 20 homers... Let that sink in.
This is what Menenchino wants though. It's his entire philosophy. There are interviews where he says exactly that.

And yet people still try to argue that the coaching staff isn't the biggest issue with this team. It 100% is. From the racist, drunken, dinosaur of a manager(that I can guarantee no players want to play for), to the hitting coach, to the pitching coach. ENTIRE teams don't regress and change on this level without the coaching staff being the cause of it. Pitchers velo is down across multiple starters. Hitters aren't hitting for power in any way whatsoever, and in a hitter's park no less. Terrible decisions are being made game in and game out by the manager, who was just caught on camera literally falling asleep in the dugout. This team needs an entire new coaching staff. I'm 100% convinced this is an AL contender with a new staff. This staff may be one of the worst ever assembled in the history of MLB.

I think they said in the postgame last night that the Sox have been out-homered at home 71-46 so far this season. That's disgusting.

That's insane.
This team is a disaster and is easily on top of every "most disappointing" or "underachieving" list in baseball this year. And LaRussa still has a job.
Are people defending him? I’m not so on top of the cws, but my impression was that everyone at this point thinks he stinks.

No, but many people on here are saying he's a minor part of the problem, and that the players "just suck". When I don't think that's the case. I think he and his staff are THE problem. I think they're 100% the problem.

Sox offense still soiling themselves at home ome...again..as with most ofvthis season....power outtage!!!!
Anderson turning into justxa singles hitter...powe down
The Cubans....powr and clutch down...
Even when they do launch it....too many caught at warning track. So mosdibgvthat extra 5-10 feet of carry.
Also too many well hot bass going foul...notcstraight.
Lousyvhotyibgvcoach ...itbiscobvious.
Meanwhile...Yankees lauchobgv4 or 5vhomersvoutcit seems almost every night. Even pjayerscthey just acquired ho t multiple homets.
Conclusion= Yankees exciting...Dox=like watching a funeral.
Underachieving disappointments.

Nobody is defending him. He’s just mad because not everyone is agreeing that TLR is the root of all issues. He’s just part of the problem. You can’t possibly look at this roster filled with DHs and zero defensive ability or left handed pop and act like the roster isn’t also flawed. The ownership is really the #1 problem if u wanna try and rank them.

I mean, in theory moncada, grandal and sheets are supposed to be left handed power but they are all trash now. Though, in fairness sheets has always been and i suspect always will have been trash any way.

Lol, not even close. Imagine thinking I'm mad because everyone doesn't agree with me about something on a f***ing message board...
The few of you thinking the players "just suck" is asinine and ridiculous. You can look at this team, and their whole team regression, and easily say the staff is the majority of the problem here. It's not just TLR. It's the entire coaching staff, top to bottom. An entire team of professional ball players doesn't regress like this without an awful coaching staff. It's obvious to anyone with half a brain that the team doesn't want to play for this staff and the staff has tried to change everything about them as players, and it's not working.
Lol. Go on laughing. The guy who literally flips his opinion on this team/players every few games... laughing at someone else. Funny. Your posting on the Sox is unhinged and ridiculous 99.9% of the time. I don't think there's a single person here who actually takes anything you say regarding the Sox seriously.

I think Cubs fans will be more underwhelmed with the return on Contreras thane were with Cat.

You should make sure player is willing to waive before putting together a trade involving him
Appears they have worked something else out

Now hearing the deal does not hinge on Hosmer's permission. SD I'm sure had a backup plan.
Sigh, always fun to see real, professional baseball teams making moves to improve their team. Exciting day. While our dickstain of a manager falls asleep in the dugout.

If you're Hosmer you absolutely tell the Padres to eat shit.

If Paders are willing to eat a large portion of deal
He would be good fit in Seattle to rotate 1B spot with France and DH
Seattle looks like a playoff team and adding him would be good for them and Hosmer would stay on West Coast and on a playoff team
