The last thing we need is Cueto to burn up any of that trade value.

That midget has more power than Luis Robert.

It's Strategy. You don't want long half innings when your SP has a barking back.

Well, so much for the myth about HAVING to have LH hitters in there. If they're bad, they're bad.

Excited Moncada is back, then they flashed his stat line on the screen. MY EYES ?

Benneti (thinking about Sox math) and Stone (busy ripping Sox fans on Twitter) have made no mention of Cueto discomfort/hurt.

So what we're saying here is that there are only 2 guys who belong at their positions with a glove and that's Robert in CF and Anderson at SS (and even that has the moments of look away).

This would just be another turd drop from Rick Hahn's ineptitude as GM. Jumps the kid from AA to the big leagues, gets the service clock going, takes a spot on the 40 man, then gets sent down after 10 ABs or so.

Right, I looked at the replay just now and he didn't even have a late break to the ball. For him, it was pretty dead sprint at 100%. The approaching wall sure didn't help. However, he and Vaughn are very slow to get camped under the ball, as you said.

I still didn't see anything routine about this. Sprint to the ball, wall approaches, drops ball, hits the wall.

At some point you have to out-slugg your mistakes. This team was suppose to do that coming out of Spring Training. The crappy OF defense (which should be of no surprise to anyone - not sure why all of a sudden it's become a hot topic here) is highly magnified because we can't hit for shit. Someone posted on twitter that the Sox have like 1 HR in their last 250 or So ABs. Even with the injuries, this is completely unacceptable.

Best outcome out of this one today is that Lucas did indeed make himself a little bit more tradeable.

What makes you think that clown is a real OF himself? That's the same asshat that took out Medick for not calling off a flyball loud enough. In an empty stadium.

GTFOH with this Monday Morning QB bullshit. Sheets takes a shit on another ball in the 7 or 8th inning you'd be the first one bitching up a storm on why wasn't he pulled.

None of this would be a problem if all those 1B/DHs would slugg their way out of their bad defense as was suppose to be the plan. Eloy and Vaughn/Sheets were suppose to suck at the corners but would each slugg +.500 to make a difference. The slugging part hasn't happened.

I read these game threads and I feel like the Confused Travolta Gif. So do we are do we not want Sheets in the OF? He was the punching bag after the mis-play in RF. Then the right thing was done to pull him with the lead and put somewhat of a better OF out there. But then it's a problem when his turn to bat came back around?

I kind of feel like we suck vs All Handed Pitching.

Keep wanting to get a lot more from him. The way he finished 2021, I honestly thought he'd take off playing MVP ball going forward. Let's hope this is not another Yoan post 2019.

We're going to lose a Trout Suck game. SMH

Mullins catches that ball.

TA running the way he is is a breathe of fresh air. Maybe there is hope with the injuries.

Lucas is doing a hell of job keeping his WHIP inflated tonight.

Andrew Vaugh skunked that inning. What a shit AB.

Any play that involves an approaching fixed object, like a wall, on a full sprint is not considered "routine" by any stretch.
