Why do the Red Sox suck so bad?

Question

They just lost against the Angels. They are lousy. The Yankees will win for sure now. I love it.

Go yanks!

Answer 1

HAHA spoken like a true yankees fan... blind as a baseball bat.

Red Sox have sucked lately, I will give you that. But now we have Pappi home and will pull another series out. Poor yankees fans... I always feel sorry for you.

Answer 2

It seems to me that they have made a few bad choices this year.  

Ellsbury presses too much and is too streaky - probably just too young for such an important role - but they need more than BA in the 260 range from him.  Unfortunately for them, Crisp is no better an option.

And then the obvious, Varitek BA around 220, that is like having a pitcher hit.  In games where they have a pitcher who is used to batting they should consider using their DH to hit for Veritek and just let the pitchers hit.

Beyond that, their bench just doesn't seem that well thought out.  Just seems like they have the wrong mix of flexibility, speed, power, and experience and it is all catching up to them.

And, of course, that whole Big Pappi jersey reverse the curse move has turned the karma against them.

Answer 3

Just like a true Yankees fan what happen to the third place spankmes last night they lost to a team below them in the standing.  Let's see how they do when the play the Angels starting on Thursday.  They will lose 3 out of 4 to the Angels.  In October when the Red Sox r in the playoffs the Yankees will be on the golf course.  GO RED SOX
