Bello screwed the pooch.Couldn’t watch but game boils down to 3 2R HRs? Bello didn’t have it and Oakland pitchers made good pitches when it counted? 4 Errors though, should have parlayed that into an edge it seems. What’s the thumbnail sketch on this one?
Bummer. Bad data point in the building narrative of a team that was finally getting its sh#t together.Bello screwed the pooch.
mlbn has nyy @ angels. Maybe NY should trade everyone but Judge.Hopefully this convinces them finally this team isn’t winning shit and they trade anyone who can help for next year.
Huh? The Cubs aren't cellar-dwelling, they're the only team in their division with a positive run differential.Bummer. Bad data point in the building narrative of a team that was finally getting its sh#t together.
Edit;The bad data point is particularly bad from A managerial standpoint — team continues to scuffle against lesser-talented squads. I look directly at Alex Cora for being unable to get this team on the balls of their feet on a daily basis. This 3-3 start to the critical last 2/5ths of the season — against cellar-dwelling opponents — has me in a mood to start selling now and just build for ‘24. Tip your cap to the sub-.500 set, call them your daddy and get ready for next April.
Just continuing the trend of the offense completely disappearing as a whole for stretches. Hard to project that pattern into meaningful success.And the Sox went 4-2 agaist Oakland so I don't get the doom and gloom.

A's are playing at a .276 overall clip, worse before Boston came to town. They went .333 vs. Boston this year. Small sample size and all that, but they just feel like a team any decent team should sweep.Huh?

Bring back brown spicy mustard and normal ketchupI got my season ticket holder “mid season report” survey today. I’m off to fill it out. They should have sent it out 2 days ago.
Any suggestions for what I should put in there?
Yes! I forgot about that!Bring back brown spicy mustard and normal ketchup
Correct. Hard to project a pattern. This game was Bello having a rare bad outing. He pitches as expected, we win. Every loss isn't the same.Just continuing the trend of the offense completely disappearing as a whole for stretches. Hard to project that pattern into meaningful success.
Outside of the Turner HR and the Masa double, offense still looked bad. Not every team is going to gift us 4 errors. Verdugo, Duran, Hernandez, Chang and Alfaro have all been dead at the plate lately. Add a Raffy 0-4 and they've got no chance even under the most favorable of conditions.Correct.
