He's as sick of watching the team's garbage at bats as we are

Maybe I'm a meatball, but does a dude that's never hit above A ball need to be inserted into the 3 hole right away?

Seems like the Sox could pretty easily make McCann a competitive offer in terms of $$ (ignoring Covid impacts on future Sox payrolls which are unknown at this point). The real problem is that it would effectively block Vaughn since Abreu is signed for 2 more years and to have any hope of signing McCann, you'd have to assume both he and Grandal would be playing plenty of DH.

Not to mention Moncada hasn't consistently been right this year, either

I don't know if Sox Machine is a blog, or podcast, or something else, but those dudes just seem really negative and awful on twitter whenever I see their names. Makes me have zero interest in consuming whatever product they put out.

I'm so damn tired of watching guys K with runners on

Not even close with a single pitch.

It was pretty clearly a ball, guys.

Fuck. Cost Dunning a win and maybe cost the Sox the series. Terrible.

Cishek. Christ.

God damnit, Cordero

Fooled me. Thought it was out for sure.

Pass on trading Dunning. He's going to be a fixture in our rotation for years to come.

Totally agree. Will be really bummed if we trade Dunning.

Because the trade target is 33. I really think it comes down to that.

20-12 and the 7 seed is bananas.

I like the "bring him home" as well.

112 I think. And another over 99.

The fact that he was sitting on the bench while AJ Reed was getting at bats last August/September still pisses me off. We had a great chance to see what we have in Zack and wasted it.

Would personally like to see Madrigal at second and Mendick at third for a day or two to rest Yoan

Not really a third time through the lineup thing when he walked 3 dudes, at least one of which after getting up 0-2.

That blocks Vaughn, though. What do you do with him? I would think he'd be up next year, but maybe I'm off on that.

Gotta ask - what is a Maddux?

I genuinely cannot fathom some of the reactions to this, both here and on twitter. He's a gold glove caliber utility infielder who fits well into the clubhouse, doesn't cost anything, and provides valuable insurance to multiple positions. He is EXACTLY what we needed for the next half of the season, given that Leury is out, Madrigal got hurt, and Moncada is perpetually banged up.
