  1. Zavala founded the Zavala line at .150, making Mendoza a good hitter at .200.
  2. Burger got 2 hits and a walk in the Marlins win tonight. Made good contact. Good defense. Showing energy. I still don’t like this trade. Burger has been improving, and we need sluggers in our team. Burger interview after the game said he liked the Marlins clubhouse energy and the feeling that they are never out of the game, and he was warmly welcomed. I think this was a dig at the Sox clubhouse in a way.
  3. Could have used Burger to stop this streak with one big swing.
  4. Jake won’t have to worry about the weather so much, as he will be playing in a domed stadium. However the wind won’t be as much of a factor as GRF and homers will be harder to come by.
  5. Our bottom third of the lineup are awful offensively. As close to automatic outs as you can get. Zavala must have the lowest Batting average in MLB, establishing the .150 Zavala line, below the Mendoza line.
  6. Grandal is a four tool dud. Can’t hit, can’t run, can’t catch and can’t throw.
  7. It was a bad and unneeded trade. Didn’t we already have McCann? Much like the unneeded trade for Kimbrel when we already had a closer in Hendriks.
  8. Eder is a lefty and Marlins #4 prospect, had TJ surgery in 2021. Had been doing well in Minors. Hope he can deliver as we are giving up a 25 homer so far , popular Jake Burger in a homer friendly park, GRF, where are starved for homers.
  9. Agree. Burger is tailor made for homer friendly GRF. He is also one of our most popular players. I would have dealt pr Vaughn instead, but maybe the marlins did not want Vaughn?
  10. 5 walks and 2 gopher balls so far today not a formula for success.
  11. Should have spent the Benintendi money on a slugger as GRF is a home run hitter park, and we get outhomered in many games at GRF. Fortunately, Burger has closed the gap homers this season.
  12. Benintendi does not have the power to be a suitable 5th spot hitter.
  13. Too bad that the Sox waited so long to get wins like the last two days. I guess they don’t feel as much pressure now as the sell off has been defined.
  14. Yoan at least was robbed of a grand slam earlier in the week. TA has not been close to an outfield fence.
  15. But he is Klay Thompson’s brother. Kidding aside, I rather get players from winning organizations like the Dodgers than guys from losers like the Royals.
