Boston Red Sox or Boston Rays? 

Red Sox Fans Deserve Better

There was once a point of time where John Henry and his team would be in on almost every top free agent no matter what the cost is. He was always eager to spend money to put the Red Sox in a championship contending situation, especially when the team was so close to being at the next level. Now in the year of 2023, that mindset is the complete opposite for Henry and his team. The only question you could ask as a Red Sox fan is why?

JD Martinez Was Worth Every Penny

You do not see a player who gets a big contract work out as often. When a player gets a big contract, the organization trusts that player to meet or exceed a certain expectation. There was one player that joined the Boston Red Sox in 2018 where he was expected to elevate the Sox lineup and bring them a bat that was missing since Ortiz’s departure. That player was JD Martinez.

X Gave It All to Boston

When Red Sox fans think about Red Sox legends, the first thing that comes to mind is the winning mindset those players brought out every game. Showing that winning culture on the field and making an impact day in and day out. Most importantly, the leadership they brought to the clubhouse. This means putting the team ahead of themselves. Obviously, stats do matter, but Boston fans just give those kinds of players a special place in their hearts. One player that did win over the city of Boston and will be beloved in Boston forever is Xander Bogaerts. Read more on our appreciation for Xander's time in Boston.

This Season is Already a Failure for the Red Sox

Originally, there was a nickname created for the Boston Bruins for looking like a good team, but in reality, they were not having a good season. They underachieved in expectations and really let fans down during the season. The nickname that was originally created for the Bruins was “Fools Gold”. However, it is officially safe to say that the Boston Red Sox have taken over as the “Fools Gold” of Boston Sports. The Red Sox have had a laughable season where there have been moments that they looked like a high school team at best. Even though mathematically the Sox are still in the hunt for a playoff spot, it looks like they will not be in a playoff run for the 2022 season. Read more on why this season is already a failure for the Red Sox.

Stop Being Cheap

It has been very clear for the first month and a half of the season that the Boston Red Sox do not have that same energy that the team came out with last year. The Red Sox have not looked the same as last year and have been a disappointment to begin the year. Not just on the field, but also off the field as well. The Red Sox as of recently have turned it around a little, however they still sit under .500 win percentage. As many Sox fans know, there are big questions that the front office needs to answer. Read more on our thoughts on what questions the Red Sox need to answer moving forward in order to be a top contending team!

The Front Office Choked

As Red Sox fans, when the Red Sox are a successful ball club, we praise them for doing great on the field or making the right decisions for the team upstairs.
