Cuz it rules

That was one of those bad first innings that makes you think they’re still going to get after this guy

Romy Gonzalez looks like his name should be Joe McSmith

That first part is Very Bad! But that second part is Pretty Good!

2020 made people forget how fuckin streaky he actually is

Well good thing they’re finding it now

When healthy, he’s been one of the 7 or 8 best players in baseball. Full stop.

I didn’t know it was possible to have an empty 40 home runs

Todd Frazieresque

Those are exactly the ones you’d lose

There is one person in this lineup with more than 15 road rbi. That’s insane

Wish we had James mccann

Wisdom is having a great series god damn

Wish we had James mccann

It was so obvious this was going to happen after the hissy fit that got thrown.

Sounds like Robert actually missed first.

No idea how he didn't end up on second on his hit, but he looked like he grimaced at first. But I don't think he was getting to third on that hit.

What matters is what happens in August, obviously

If this is what they run out there in october, or they were currently in a dogfight to make the playoffs this would be true.

Edit: quoted the wrong one, oh well

I'm not Tony apologist, but using .012 points of win percentage to definitively say Renteria is better than LaRussa, especially when one managed a 60 game season, is one of the more absurd points of evidence I've seen on here.

I disagree, but that's beside the point. They traded two members of the supporting cast who were awol anyway to bolster a spot (non-hendriks relievers ) that has been awful with someone who had been absolutely lights out. It was worth a shot even if it blows up

I think that's how it goes with most teams, go on an extended run of being really hot and then just kinda okay before and after. The sox hottest run just came early at this point. Hopefully they get hot again

I'm really struggling to find how trading who they traded for a hall of famer at their weakest position in the middle of his best season was not worth the gamble, even if it doesn't work out. Nick Madrigal and Cody Heur are not guys who were ever going to extend or contract their window. The window is right now, and neither of them are ready for it.

He was still a hell of alot better than Carl Everett
