Robert looked pretty good sitting and laughing in the dugout. If he was not healthy enough to play, let him rest at home orbe in the training room.

Well Steve it did not work. He could do the same thing hitting 7,8 or 9th. Not leading off. Stop being an apologist for TLR stupid decisions. Worry about your legacy.

But we hire a manager which is at the end of the window.

Or at least pinch hit in a one run game late. TLR has the lowest number of pinch hitters used in MLB this season.

Don’t we have a first base coach that could have told Mendick to stay at first?

The only thing that can save this season and energize the fan base again is firing TLR ASAP.

Try somebody else there tomorrow. Grandal should not ever lead off again. Hitting below the Mendoza line and one of the slowest runners in the majors.

Or at least pinch hitting for Grandal in the 8 th.

He should not have been hitting lead off in the first place. He is striking out often and cannot run. I will to say he has been the slowest lead off hitter in the majors this season. Another stupid TLR decision.

We have no fundamentals, no coaching, no training, no accountability. We can’t fire the whole team so TLR has to go. He is conducting this orchestra and he has failed miserably. No energy, bad managing, no adjustments, terrible lineup construction, no accountability. You need to pull the trigger HOF or not.

No, he wasn’t. Third strike out, on the way to the Golden Sombrero. On top of that, TLR hits him lead off, just as bad as hitting Harrison 2 nd and Leury 3 rd in earlier games. TLR lineup construction this season has not been HOF caliber by a mile.

Pitching should be the least of our worries nowadays.

Particularly with no TA, Robert, Eloy.

Is Kirk related to Yermin Mercedes?

Pollock should play against lefties ahead of Sheets.

Too bad Jose didn’t pull his 395 ft drive to CF a little more it would have been a 2 run homer. Looks like today Vaughn and Abreu will have to lead the offense.

Not only low average but one of the worst runners in the league leading off.

TLR is not into analytics or stats other than matchups. The Story 3 run homer against Keuchel was inevitable probably at least 25% chance.

TLR is a liar.

Sox have had 9 runners thrown out at the plate so far this season, most in the majors. I guess super Joe does not learn.

Practically nobody has died from the COVID vaccine shots, and over a million have died of COVID in the USA. I like my chances with shots.

Canada is also passing a new law “freezing” weapons ( no new weapons will be sold), and they also have an assault weapons ban for civilians.in place. A safer place than the USA in this respect as well.

Is he our Kyrie Irving? Disappointing not only for the Toronto trip, but also for being a high risk player for himself and for his team.

I have a little more hope today. Just watched Twins Tigers game today. Tigers win 7-5. Twins didn’t look that good. Sox have a chance at the division, but cannot punt any more games.

You are right. JR is the common denominator.
