Red Sox worst 100 win team ever??

[Fedor]

No, probably the Yankees. How have they done against them? Probably struggled I'm guessing...

Hmm. 8-5. 6-1 at home... Maybe they're better than people think? Nah; crazy.

Regular season? Oh okay I get it

[44 Mag]

Will they play the Mets in the playoffs? Just curious. Haven't checked standings in nl.

I doubt it. I don't think they play the NL during the playoffs. Only the team going to the World Seires I believe, but the Red Sox won't be one of them them. I agree with you, the Bosotn team stinks, worst team to win 100 + games in decades, you called this one right.

[lakerboy]

Boston homers getting irritated.

Boston homers getting irritated.

They are. This team has no reliable starting pitchers heading to a playoff game. Their hitting is hit or miss. Their base running is atrocious, and their bullpen sucks. What more can I say, you and the rest of the fella's have them pegged. Good Job !!!!

[allabout the $$$]

Man, did they luck out today. Another superior pitcher, and they win by luck again. When they lose the first round, every one will be happy. Nobody wants to see a loser team like this in the playoffs...........................

what did they do against thor on friday night

[nyplayer33]

Houston's 3 starters are all number 1 starters...amazing.

[Fedor]

Honestly, it could be impacted by health (Sale, Betts) a lot. Mainly it's just who performs better; we like our team. Even have confidence in Price. Just wanna be healthy.

Bullpen: Has an occasional shaky moment lately, but been solid this year. Starters, check. Defense, check (except 3B...). Power/avg/speed, check on all. Some strange magical quality, check...

Will probably get Yanks the 1st round. Could be a helluva series. I'll take the Sox.

For that matter, they didn't do to well against deGrom either. I've been saying I agree with you guys, especially LB, he is the best.

5-39 when trailing after 7

That's probably a pretty good record compared to most.

[dlowilly]

A bad 100 win team lol

That's like saying someone hits a weak .400

[lakerboy]

That's probably a pretty good record compared to most.

5-40 now.

[JIBBBY]

Yanks handled them tonight.. Might handle them again tomorrow to spoil their little East clinch win party again..

Yanks don't want to let it happen on their home field that's all I know.. They showed tonight after being down 1-0 for most of the game..

https://sports.yahoo.com/mlb/boston-red-sox-new-york-yankees-380918110/

Boston is still a solid team and I like their chances come post season..

[lakerboy]

That's probably a pretty good record compared to most.

You probably right but from my memory in the playoffs many wins are come from behind

[JIBBBY]

Yeah Lakerboy Red Sox are a horrible team.. Lol.. Stupid thread again..

You win 103 games at this point you got something going on..


Running away with the American league already and coasting now.. Still 6-4 in their last 10 games..https://sports.yahoo.com/mlb/standings/

Related. Somebody (Lakerboy?) tried to play hardball with the Sox when the AL East banner fell off a truck. Didn't go too well. From CBS Sports:


At some point very soon, possibly even Wednesday night, the Red Sox will clinch the 2018 AL East crown. Their magic number over the second place Yankees is two. Once the Red Sox clinch the division title, the team plans to unveil a banner at Fenway Park.

There's just one problem: They don't have the banner.

According to Travis Anderson of the Boston Globe, the 2018 AL East championship banner fell off the vendor's truck on a Massachusetts highway recently, and a Red Sox fan named Louie Iacuzzi and his buddies retrieved it. Now they're holding the sign hostage. They'll give the banner to the Red Sox once their demands at met. From Anderson:

"We want to return it, we're trying to do the right thing, but I'm not just going to hand it to them, know what I mean?" Iacuzzi said.
Asked if he wanted cash from the Red Sox, he said, "Yes, financial [compensation], maybe some tickets, we want something. We don't know what we want. We want to return it, 100 percent, but we would like to get something."
Iacuzzi didn't have a specific asking price in mind as of Wednesday morning.
"We want to find out what the thing's worth," he said. "We don't know."

I'm not sure what Iacuzzi and his buddies expect out of this deal, but my hunch is they're going to end up disappointed. It's a division title banner. It's not a World Series banner or even an AL pennant banner. The Red Sox have two options here:
1. Meet Iacuzzi's demands, whatever they are.
2. Have another banner made.


Whatever's cheaper is what's going to happen. And who knows, the banner might even be insured.
I hope Iacuzzi and his buddies get some sweet postseason tickets out of this deal. Can't beat postseason baseball in Fenway Park. I just wouldn't hold my breath though. The banner seems easily replaceable. eBay might be the way to go.

UPDATE: The banner has been returned to the Red Sox, a team spokesperson confirmed to the Boston Globe. Our hero and his buddies received nothing in return.

The Sox confirmed shortly before 4 p.m. that the banner, which they plan to unveil outside Fenway if they clinch the American League East crown as expected, was in their possession. A team spokeswoman said the people who returned it received nothing in exchange for the item

As expected, a disappointing return for Iacuzzi. What are the odds the conversation went "return our banner before we report it stolen?" Pretty good, I'd say.

I don't doubt you LB. I just want to see how this turns out. There were a lot of people interested in this. I have no horse in this race. Let's just see how it plays out, no need to get all pissed off about it. Let's see........

[44 Mag]

You won't bump this after game 4 of the alds. Trust me

Yeah, I live in the Boston area, BUT, I am a Patriots fan. I don't watch hockey, the Celtics have been a joke for years, never go to games, and I haven't been to that shithole Fenway park in 30 years.

[Fedor]

Never been to Boston. Picked my teams when I was about 7, and ended up with the Red Sox. Dad was a Yankees fan for life; loved watching game 4 in 2004 with him.

Odd think is that this series will end in mid Oct, and I'll be in NYC for the first time. Wearing Boston (and Fedor) stuff...

[Fedor]

Of course, it could be in Oakland...

[lakerboy]

Let's go

[44 Mag]

Strange. You took Boston tonight????
