Tough luck for TA because that would have been a hit regardless.
-
Yet he's still managed to be a significantly above average hitter. But it's been ugly this year.
-
I listen to that podcast too and I think the point was completely absurd. Of course people can disagree, but having interests outside of baseball is healthy and normal. Giolito is arguably the best player on this team and clearly there's more to his life than just baseball. It'd be one thing if Moncada wasn't in great physical, but he is, and we saw how quickly he transitioned to a new position and excelled there immediately. Come on. The guy was practically dying on the field during games last season and still put up 1.6 WAR in 53 games.

The BABIP gods continue smiling on Yermin. A little redemption for Yasmni would be nice.
-
Knowing it's game over when Wittengren-Karinchack-Clase have a lead is how teams were supposed to feel about the Sox bullpen.
-
La Russa was right about Vaughn being an above-average left fielder.
-
This ump has been calling pitches way off the plate strikes all day now his zone shrinks. Cool.
-
Vaughn is hopeless against low 90s fastballs in the strike zone right now. Not good.
-
-
Lynn's fastball command is just ridiculous. He can place the ball wherever he wants.
-
Vaughn has really struggled hitting fastballs in the strike zone.
-
After reading how extensive some of the changes are that Katz wanted Rodon to make, it wouldn't surprise me if he's not the only person who thought that.
-
The bite on those last 3 sliders has just been outrageous.
-
Keith Law said the same in one of his chats recently.
-
I don't know if it's crazier to see Rodon hitting *97* again or to see him dropping in a change-up for strikes like it's nothing... This is the best I think he's ever looked since the Sox drafted him, right?
-
Not sure what Stone is talking about, Rodon has been hitting 96 quite a bit the last few innings.
-
The fans chanting for Yermin are having a tough time getting in sync with each other.
-
He is a unicorn and there's zero indication at all his bat won't play in the majors. It's crazy how many people have been jumping ship because he's struggled on defense. Madrigal is gonna be at like a .320 career BA with a .380 OBP after tonight's ABs.
-
-
So, uh... Yermin has some of the best raw power in baseball??
-
Keep it going. This team desperately needs a big inning.
-
Love to see Moncada swinging early in the count. That's when he's at his best.
-
Given his velocity was way up in ST, I'm more inclined to think it wasn't just a hot gun in Seattle. IIRC, that game also had Kopech come in afterwards and his velo was lower than we were expecting.
-
Strikeout 5.5% (Madrigal's career rate) of the time and you're going to have a lot of streaks where you regularly bat above .300.

That looks to be a fair ball to me.
