No Goodwin, Mendick, Seby, Collins or Lamb in the lineup helps along with none of our stars resting tonight. Only lineup issue was starting Keuchel

He is not going to do that. He is a Cy Young Award winner who thinks he is still a Cy Young award winner type performer.

Soxtalk tends to be on the pessimistic side, after so many years of frustration and disappointments. But with the full lineup back, except Engel, the needle will start moving towards the optimistic side now.

Great to watch that patented bat drop again!

Let’s take it one inning at a time. We don’t need to get all the runs in one inning!

Could it have been poop instead of goop? He looked like poop tonight.

He should have taken DK’s job already, before tonight.

Whatever it is did not help him.

Should have started ReyLo tonight. Keuchel has been horrible lately and ReyLo has been pretty good. Also ReyLo reminds of JLo and Keuchel of ZZ Top. Who would you prefer to watch?

Let’s take games one game at a time. Not saying we will sweep the. Cubs and the Pirates. Tonight is going to be the worse night, as we have our worst starter on the bump.

Keuchel was not as bad in past seasons and ReyLo was worse. Now things have flipped.

Aren’t Civale and Beaver coming back soon? If they do, we should worry some.

He sucked, but Cesar did not help him.

He does not have the stuff to be in the zone, feels that he has to nibble. Keuchel should not be starting anymore games this season.

Cesar had a great game yesterday, but immediately regressed in the first inning with two bad plays that opened the gates for the Cubs.

This is the best position player lineup of the season. Unfortunately, paired up with our worst starter by far. Can we switch ReyLo for Keuchel in the rotation? Giving up 6 in the first inning to a minor league team, most of the runs with 2 outs is unacceptable.

Who is calling for the slider, the bench, Sevy on his own or Kopech on his own?

Because he is not a good bullpen manager. He has also taken out some relievers out too soon as well.

TLR likes veterans like Bummer and Ruiz, and Crochet is basically a rookie.

This has been Cesar’s best game with the Sox so far. He did need that day off. Maybe that $6M option is not looking that bad now.

And we should not see Bummer again in the 8 th this season.

Eloy needed to say hello to his Mom on TV.

Tepera and Crochet have been our best relievers the past week.

Tonight Bacon and Sox math at the same time was hard to take. Gordo also gave us the news that his grandfather went to Georgia Tech, and his father played football at South Carolina. Very important points for the game tonight in Toronto.

Observations from game tonight.: Cesar Hernandez looked good tonight. Looks like that day off did him some good. Hope Engel gets back soon. Would like a permanent day off for Goodwin. His OF defense has been atrocious. He has been badly exposed. Leury had a good game also. Better than Mendick or Lamb. When we hit homers we normally win. We survived the 8 th.inning today.
