We are not yet at the point where we need to make vacation plans for October. Having said that, oof . What a frustrating start to the season.
To kick off today’s discussion, let’s hear what you are most worried about so far. There are plenty of options, from bone-headed mistakes, to the lack of home run power and the failure to execute with runners in scoring position, to potential age-related decline from a few key players. But as for me, I’m most worried about Ranger Suarez’s shaky debut.
Why does this scare me? Because if he busts, then John Henry may never sign-off on a free agent pitcher signing ever again. This is bigger than you, Ranger.
Need you to step up, bud. Talk about slow starts and whatever else you want in this space. And, as always, be good to one another.
