Doyle and Castillo are carrying the team? 😂

Forgot about Murray, but him too.

We should have Brooks Baldwin & William Bergola next year as reserve infielder options.

The Rays have always struggled to draw fans in St.Pete. After the novelty of the new stadium is over I wonder if the team is going to draw any better in Tampa.

Can we just destroy the Twins, please?

Japanese style or not. Mune has been in the toilet for too long. Drop him in batting order. He's killing us.

That's what happens when you're strokin!

How about the Heavy Fuel Crew? Boers and Dangerous Dan McNeil? Bernstein was their producer and moved up every time McNeil got fired for bad behavior.

Cali, come on man. He is riling you up. Just ignore it. This is just “Abreu is bad” while the guy is carrying the team. Same thing

Worse how ? What metric are you using to come to this conclusion ? At the trade deadline the Sox had a 3 game lead. It's 2.5 now while Cleveland has won 7 in a row against 2 of the worst teams in baseball. Davis Martin hasn't got a single win since the TDL with an ERA of 14.63 in 3 starts 21 games since the TDL Murakami is hitting .141, 280 OBP and .372 slg. Colson Montgomery .566 OPS since TDL Burke in 5 games is 4.74 ERA and 5.60 FIP . Castillo 4 games 5.89 ERA but a FIP of 5.37 so while none of that is good the FIP is slightly better than Burke and much better than Martin Right after the TDL the Sox went 0-4 but since then 11-7 so maybe your early impression after the TDL skewed your thinking. So .500 since the TDL while their 2 best starting pitchers and their best HR hitter and 3rd best HR hitter all have slumped. Also Sox 1st reached 7 games above .500 July 21st and are still 7 games above .500 but they've basically been a .500 team for 3 months. They've done what they have done all year which is pick each other up. Highly doubt any of the acquisitions have made enough contributions for anyone to prove they are a worse or better team now . They were 18-10 in May. Since then 36-35.

Yeah, that's definitely what I was hoping for.

yes we're up to near 80 percent now on FG. we just need to get to 84 and we're likely in.

Guardians pulling away from the pack with the wild card is probably a good thing for our overall playoff chances.

Right now it feels like a no-hat. He's had insane stretches with all 3 teams.

I sure hope so. I don't know which to choose. I'll say yes very hesitantly because I don't think any of the Wild Card contenders (excluding Cleveland) are any good. I guess the most likely option of the three is they take the last wild card spot, but I wouldn't be shocked if they fell out of the playoffs. The starting rotation is as bad right now as Ive ever seen it. Blowing a 4.5 game lead in a month is hard to do but not THAT hard. The Sox have done it before.

I am just scouting the stat line but damn Jaden Woods (acquired in the Jacob Gonzalez trade) can really rack up some strikeouts. 14.9 K/9 so far in Chicago and 44 strikeouts over 28 AAA innings.

Yeah I had to correct that. Its about 50 points higher now.

And they do seem to be doing that, which has helped his numbers.

Worth noting his OPS is about 50 points higher against righties than lefties. And if you're going to start him, start him when your stronger lineup is in (RHP lineup over LHP lineup)

And to their credit, they finally killed that experiment.

Yeah, if there was an equivilant pitcher (RP or SP at this point) I would be in. Catcher I could listen on. Everything else? Nah.

Don't mind him as a backup, mind him being a staple in the lineup getting regular playing time against lefties. Should be mixed in less than that, especially when none of our infielders need a RHH platoon partner.

Yeah, he can back up the infield with his glove and lack of bat. He has neither in the OF.

I like Gino, just don’t think he’s a good fit. There’s probably guys who fit the roster better that were also put on waivers, and we just didn’t hear about it.
