I agree. Especially the part of blaming more than one guy.

First round 7th overall pick in 2015. Looks to be worthless. Remember when the Sox swapped Joe Borchard for Matt Thornton. Both were disappointing first round draft choices. Thornton worked out very well for us. Time for some of that same creativity.

JR is loyal if he perceives you to be loyal. SportsVision was a disaster and Harry was right to bail. I was however sick of Harry & Jimmies antics. His popularity has grown but I thought he was a jerk.

McCann really covers the strike zone. Not many wild ass swings diving out, etc. His batting maner reminds me of Fisk.

Makes you want to try pitching.

I mean whoever is the best pitcher when we get to the draft. Things change a lot with this much time remaining. If things stay the same you options such as trading down or whatever. I am of course not against best player available. Some time soon we will be trading from our arsenal of players we're building up.

Not playing like it.

Benintendi .273 Garcia .279 Betts .303 Anderson .352 Martinez .327 Abreu .284 Bogarets .264 McCann .365 Dovers .294 Moncada .299 Chavis .289 Rondon .261 Moreland .208 Castillo .189 Lin .200 Cordell .227 Leon .154 Engel .224

Our lineup tonight matches up very well with Boston.

Madrigal is playing well. When Madrigal, Robert and Cease come up this club will be very good. Would love to get on the job major league experience.

People already want Jimenez to DH. Some people Abreu to DH. When Collins comes up we will want he or McCann to DH. Can only have so many of these type guys. A pure DH like Vaughn just complicates the situation. Get the best pitcher available is how I would go.

I like when DH can be used in this manner instead of a permanent one dimensional guy. Main reason I'm not keen on Vaughn.

Loyalty is not a bad thing and I admire JR for that. I predict a promotion for Ricky when JR is ready.

One of those finds you hope for in a rebuild.

I'll go 12-12. We are having more good days than bad recently. Really like McCann in this lineup.

This is a big deal !!!

Ozzie let his ego get the best of him. He turned his back on the Sox and his kids drove me nuts. No interest!!!

However we formed out predictions...we didn't see Anderson, McCann & Moncada being this good. Those with high team expectations thought Jimenez would come up and immediately rake. I believe we will continue improvement throughout the year.

His agent makes it hard to work out a a solution that works for both parties.

Getting contributions from some different guys each night. They really do play like a team. Recent games have had McCann, Alonso, Delmonico, Banuelos, Engle and others contribute to some nice wins. These guys weren't even being discussed as meaningful members of the team when the season began. McCann and Banuelos have shown signs that they are the real deal.

I don't think the boys got the memo. This team has a lot of good things happening lately. The play of Banuelos and McCann have me thinking very positive thoughts. These are the kind of players (unexpected) that change a clubs fortunes.

Please!

To be honest … it hasn't looked like luck. He has very professional looking at bats.

100% agree.
