20 games left (including today) and I would say that the Sox need to go 14-6/15-5 or better to have a chance to win the division.



I already told u what needs to happen. They need to win every game.

They were done after the AZ sweep.

Poor catching costs you a strike out.

At this point it's too late to just stay alive. Now u gotta go out and win it. Need 19-1 or 20_0

I guess Miggy knew Cease was due for a clunker and that's why he figured he would start him today.

In Cairo We Trust.

An aside, I've enjoyed these telecasts much more without Steve Stone. Beckham has improved, and Len is good on TV when filling in as well.

Gordo is too positive for my liking. I need some healthy criticism (or cynicism) to pair with Benetti’s relentless annoying-ism.

Maybe I just prefer the optimism to Stone's smarminess.

Not to nitpick but now I’m paying attention, and so far this inning Beckham has said “it’d be nice if they could square things up or even just tie it” and then softly argued the merits of striking out with a guy on 2nd and nobody out.

I know that was a bad hop, but Moncada just kind of waved at it like a little leaguer.

Didn't end up mattering, but still.

Cleveland won again.

Too little too late from the Sox. Shame because maybe this ends up different if Cairo was the manager from day one, or day 40, or day 100.

Moncada can't be traded because of his contract. Move Jackie or Eloy. Shake this team up. Don't do a Theo and keep the core together.

He looked horrible. Swinging through 94 down the middle.

At least LouBob swings and misses on pitches out of the zone.

Sometimes LouBob drops his bat before he even completes his swing! Now that's commitment to the whiff.

94 and 95.

Pin straight with no movement and right down the middle.

Sorry Caller Bob, it doesn't appear this team is going to make the playoffs.

Can make the argument that C should be a top priority in the offseason. Both options they have now are bad offensively AND defensively. However, catchers are hard to find. Pretty much every list has Contreras as the top free agent available, and he'll probably get more money than Jerry would spend.

Not arguing that LaRussa isn’t a disaster but everyone knew all season long the schedule would be the easiest in baseball in September. This does not make Cairo a genius. Everyone knew they would do better in September. They would probably be the same with LaRussa. Their September success is a function of strength of schedule, not change of manager.

That said, if there has ever been a team in need of a change of manager it is this team and it could have helped earlier. I don’t think this guy Cairo is the guy.
