TA looking like he's never seen Ruiz throw a breaking ball before.

US has knocked out Venezuala's pitcher in the first inning allowing 3 runs, getting one out, with a potential 4th run at 3rd.

I was referring specifically to backup infielders. Someone has to backup the infield, right? Especially 2B/SS, where the starters both have a career wRC+ that is <100 against RHP?
A 73 wRC+ against RHP for Leury's career is not good. But it's significantly better than Alberto's 54, or Romy's 33.
When your wRC+ numbers get that low, I don't think 73 or 54 or 33 really matter. Even though it's not the side that the Sox would prefer, Alberto is at least an above average hitter from one side.
To put it another way, at 2B I'd take Alberto's 109 vs LHP and Andrus' 83 vs RHP over Andrus' 94 vs LHP and Leury's 71 vs RHP. Same for TA at SS

Man, they really need to even up the pool play next time around. DR, Venezuela and PR in the same group is just a killer. Now we get to see Australia and Italy advance instead of one of those three? Yawn
That would involve sending multiple teams across the Pacific for pool play. Probably stuck with what we've got.

Wow what the hell are the Bears gonna spend money on now?
They don't have to get all the way up to the cap this year. Save some back for next year. Being any better than 8-9 this year is a longshot anyway.

Tony Larussa Lock In Night. Here's your chance to sleep in the dugout like a real Hall of Fame guy. $2 beers and shots.
If it's for LaRussa it needs to be $2.08. All prices end in .08

I need the Soxtalk's community's assistance. I just recently got a job offer in the city near the GRF. I currently live in the far north side of city. What are some decent suburbs to consider moving to in that area?
I appreciate any assistance provided!
Thanks.
If you can afford it, Munster has the best school district. Close to the Borman/Ford.

Hamilton and Romy should both be on the team. Kick Leury's ass to the curb.

I think at some point we end up with MLB Network owning and distributing rights to games. You'd have MLBN Chicago (and Plus since there are two teams) that will show Chicago games when they're on, and evenings that don't have Chicago games you get a national game or the national studio show.

Is Nate Davis any good?
I'm willing to bet he's better than Cody Whitehair

Get an OT and a pass rusher in free agency and fill the rest via draft.

This is the one OL I really, really wanted.

If Burger keeps hitting, I could see him making the team, with him getting 1-2 starts a week at 3B and some starts at DH vs LHP with Eloy playing RF.
-
Sox will never do this, but I'd have Moncada lead off vs RHP. He takes pitches and gets on base. Anderson should be batting 6th-7th vs RHP.

And you can find articles that say the Bears robbed the Panthers. Local media is always gonna spin it.
My opinion is that none of the QBs in this draft are worth giving up a haul for, so the Bears made out just fine. I know there were suggestions that the Bears trade Fields and draft a guy with 2 extra years of control, but I'd rather have 3 years of Fields than 5 years of any of these guys.

We got tired of xfinity's price increases and switched to YouTubeTV. They have NBCSC but not Marquee.

If Leury is used IN THE CORRECT WAY, like every other freaking player that has so far failed during this contention window, he can be very useful.
The only correct way to use a guy with a 39 wRC+ is not at all.
