One would think a catcher knows how to catch pitches. Not necessarily.

I am not fine with Escobar being a Twins mainstay for 6-7 years. We got de minimus out of Liriano.

You could take Escobar or Shields for that honor. You might not recall Johnny Callison, Norm Cash or Earl Battey.

Smith is the Sox Johnny Bench. A sight for sore eyes.

Ricky been hitting Polka fly balls every night. CF before long. I see Escobar having a season similar to Jose. Sure glad we traded him.

Gio may be due for some bull pen time. He no longer deserves to be indulged. Hard to send him down and use his last option.

Jose leads MLB with 22 doubles just ahead of Escobar at 21.

Uh maybe you are over-reacting a bit. Anybody can type swear words.

Too bad Jose could have saved the inning.

I know Minaya has not been starting but he might as well.

The pen will be used to save this win and punt in game two.

Lucas either steps up or they move on. Cannot keep starting as is and others will be ready for a chance. They may be forced to send him down.

Some good things to focus on.

More than a backup at this point. Almost a catching Messiah. Our DH duo is looking decent as someone said. Our SP is improving too.

Tigers after drafting Mize: We were frankly shocked that he was still available. I think the Sox said that after drafting Gordo.

Melky was hardly a bust. I don't see how Giolito can start much longer which leaves one open spot.

Good pick because offense seems to be an ongoing struggle. Help is needed.

Credit to Rick R for pinch-hitting Palka with the game winner.

Might as well send Lucas down meaning next spring is his last chance.

Sox fans just noticed that beer is expensive. Wonder what they take in on beer at Wrigley on a Friday afternoon.

Covey settling in and Rodon coming back with no Gonzalez means improved SP. Wish the lineup could get a couple more upgrades. No need for Trayce Thompson at this point. Might as well play Tilson.

Hawk says Rick R is right man for the job. Based upon?

Exactly what I predicted.

You know a 2-1 lead would be good as gold.

Good on Covey 5+ IP I think that counts as a complete game now. Rodon good outing for CLT.
