    The Red Sox Slump

    I find it highly entertaining how many novices here are calling for there demise after 6 games. I don't know if this is your first season watching baseball or not but they play 162 games in MLB. It is funny how many here say the Red Sox suck, stick, and Franconna and Epstein should get fired. Many teams go throughout losing streaks throughout the season. The Sox losing streak is magnified only because they started the season losing. Try to keep things in perspective when watching, gambling on MLB this season. Red Sox go on an 8-3 run they will be right around .500 very early in the season. All I am saying is wait until around the AS break to hit the panic button.

    Its absurb, isn't it. I can almost guarantee that 25 teams will go on a 6 game losing streak at some point during the season.

    With the amount of games, it's similar to the Spurs, Heat, Bulls, Lakers, etc losing 3 in a row.....which I'm sure they all have.

    I think some here think they will finish dead last in the AL EAST. At the worst they will make the playoffs.. too many weapons to not figure it out at some point.

    I agree 100%. Although I hope they make that 0-7, I couldn't pass up the Yanks today at +130. I wouldn't be shocked at all to see Boston pull out the win but they have to prove to me that they can hit before I put my money with them.

    I agree it is not time to panic.
    But you can't deny that it is their worst start since WWII
    with all of the pre-season hype that is embarrassing and now to have the Yankees on deck they could dig themselves a real big hole.

    did hear that no team has ever won more than 88 games after 0-6 start
    100 + years of history is hard to dispute
