Even when walks, he is a base clogger, very slow needs three hits to score him.

Agree with you on Moncada but rather keep Abreu and get rid ofGrandal instead. Will need to get a 3B and catcher replace not in place.

TLR and Hahn love relievers more than anything else.

Very soft swing. GrandaL and Moncada are killing all our rallies.

Contact play with Vaughn is no bueno.

Eloy heard you. He is the man now.

Hahn didn’t or couldn’t pull the trigger on Pederson, Gallo or Happ.

I think he got overpaid and decided to enjoy his money and not exert too much on the field. Don’t forget he used to make like $30 a month in Cuba. Sudden riches spoil people IMO.

Grandal should not be DH or should not be hitting ahead of Sheets who has been hitting the ball better lately. Grandal has been a rally killer.

Grandal has been an automatic out. Sox scoring pattern has been score a few runs early and then fail to pile on.

TA hardly ever dives for a ball.

Dreaded lead off walks to first two batters in the inning did not help either. They both ended up scoring. Need to pile in more runs. Giolito shaky with high pitch count.

Time to stop DHing Grandal. Only play him when he is catching, and hit him no higher than 8 th. He has become an automatic out.

AV triple is once in a century event. We watched history tonight.

Let’s circulate the memo again. Don’t let Salvador Perez beat us.

Sell some equity.

Sell some equity to some of his buddies.

Today, at the end of the trade deadline the rich got richer in talent, the poor got poorer, and the middle class like the Sox stayed pat. There will never be parity in baseball without a salary cap.

That is part of TLR ball.

I think we tend to forget that JR bought the Sox for $19 million, albeit in 1981. He has a lot of equity. Could’nt he monetize some of that equity to improve the team?

Generally because TLR has not hit our worse hitters often in the 9 th spot. How many times has Leury hit 9 th?

Lots of righty pitchers to come after the Sox.

We sure could have used Happ or Pederson.

And JR did not have to spend any additional money.

Looks like that’s it. One middle of the pack reliever while Twins are loading up.
