It's Been A While Since Anyone Argued That Stanton is Better Than Ellsbury

So Stanton has another five strikeout day.

What I dubbed the " diamond" sombrero is actually the platinum one.

And Stanton doesn't look good in any of his at bats.

We would be better to trade him for Jake Cave, and be done with him.

Jace Peterson is badly outplaying this dead fish.

Let's combined the salaries of Stanton and Ellsbury and buy Sardinia.

The big guns have gone silent at crunch time.

Judge is hitting broken bat singles.

But at least he has an average.

And the occasional RBI.

Stanton is a disaster.

Wild card?

I'M TOO HORRIFIED FOR WORDS.

CAN YOU BELIEVE EVEN WITH THE BASES LOADED AND NO OUTS, WE CAN'T EVEN PUSH 1 RUN ACROSS THE PLATE?

WITH THE HEART OF OUR ORDER UP?

I GIVE UP.

I FUCKING GIVE UP.

2 PINEAPPLE'S WITHIN 3 DAYS?

RED SOX NOW 8- 1.....

IF THESE METS WIN TONIGHT YOU MAY READ ABOUT ME TOMORROW.

Don't give up, ALL-CAPS!

Trouble is, as someone said, they are STILL rebuilding. This team will likely contend in the years ahead, but it's a mess now, and it's not going anywhere.

I dunno...I was shocked and horrified at first. Now they are so far below what they seemed to be—what we were told they would be—that I just have to laugh. Okay, bitterly, cynically. But laugh nonetheless.

This team needs to show a little heart and get itself together. But after watching them play, I'm not sure there's anything intestinal there.

I'M TRYING TO CORRAL MY THOUGHTS, HOSS.

.....BUT ON TOP OF US PLAYING SO SHITTY, THE METS AND RED SOX ARE NOW 15 - 2 BETWEEN THEM....

I'M WASN'T READY FOR THAT.

I'LL TRY NOT TO HANG MYSELF.

I WISH I COULD FALL ASLEEP AND WAKE UP IN LATE JUNE OR JULY. (I THINK, I HOPE).

As for the Bosox, there is a major league rule that they can't play 162 games against the Rays. You can look that up.
