Well it’s definitely possible. Lose a few key guys from the pitching staff and this could easily devolve into the worst staff in the game.

Burger hasn’t played an inning of third base this year and only 35 games in the past. One could in fact have paid numerous iotas of attention and still have not seen him play, considering the vast amount of not playing he has done over the last couple years

Reynaldo looking legit

Pinch hitting your best hitter in ninth inning of one run game. What a concept

Is it just me or does Elvis appear to be physically transforming into Leury

Who was it that was comparing Robert to Felix Pie? I don’t think we should forget

Drilling a dude while he whiffs on strike three has to be a satisfying feeling

That was a circus catch

Neon Moncada is a lot more likeable when he’s hitting

We’re going to have to score more than the Astros to pull this one out.

Banks was solid last year. Is he injured or something?

Banks should be on the roster instead of Diekman

Welcome to the big leagues Oscar

That’s a hangwiffum

Yeah I kind of like the idea of both Sheets and Burger on the bench personally. But if its one or the other, the Sox could use the LH bat more based on the starting lineup imo

Every player in the lineup except Benintendi hit lefties better than righties, that is why Sheets is on the roster over Burger.

He was throwing an abnormal amount of breaking balls

Dear lord, lead us not into temptation, but let Eloy play a hundred forty plus games this year, amen

For a thirty year old man who hadn’t played baseball since high school, jumping straight to AA and hitting .200 was actually pretty good if you ask me.

Sorry but none of the numbers support your position. Grandal is much better vs LHP than right and any indication indicates the inverse for Zavala. Grandal should always start against LHP and Zavala should get his 40+ starts against RHP

How does the shift explain extremely higher HR rate vs lefties

I’m not going to do the math but Yaz’s OPS vs lefties is damn near 1.000 since 2020. He should never sit against a lefty

Right but particularly against LHP. Zavala should only start against RHP

Regardless, since Yaz has been in a Sox uniform he has hit LHP much better than RHP. And it may be a small sample size but it certainly doesn’t support using Zavala against LHP either

Also, Grandal has hit significantly better against LHP the last few years
