Cavan Biggio looks like a CGI robot at the plate.

Very good point - forgot about that…100 percent right.

Vaughn just looks locked in. Love it.

I think he is probably safe either way - but a perfect throw and relay from pollock and anderson probably gets him. That said - Rey Lo looked fantastic.

Geeze Timmy - that was not a pretty throw. Nice pick by Jose - that was the worse type of in between hop there.

Ok - just get 3 outs. Let this run score and than get a few more back. Nice start by Lynn. Each start a little better.

That is a real bad missed 3rd strike and a huge difference. Puts Toronto in a spot to get right back into this game.

I think the guys we have now - combined with at least 2 of Eloy/Yoan/Grandal being what the Sox expected would basically make them (offensively) a legit title contender. Obviously starting pitching and other things would need to lineup and be healthy.

I didn’t want to jinx things - cause if that happens this becomes the lineup we all thought it would be - which despite being righty dominant is still pretty damn good. Vs you know one of the worst offenses in mlb history which it was on pace for like 2 months into the season.

Helps when you went from 1 or 2 productive hitters in lineup to 5 or 6. God willing this is just the start and Eloy and Moncada both round into form and can stay healthy.

Crap - Abreu looked like he pulled a hammy or something on that turn to 3rd.

Damn - RIP.

They don’t have the right to fear other teams. They need to look themselves square in the eyes and start making real changes.

Was Buster Olney really a golden spikes award winner. I never knew it - or did you mean Buster Posey? Never mind - has to be Posey. Cause I just assume Olney has been a career journalist (vs. a former upper echelon college player).

Was really nice to get this type of win. Especially great to see Yoan get rolling a bit and really go opposite field. Hopefully he can build on this and we go from having the negative value player that was killing this team to the guy who has been a pretty valuable 3rd baseman the past few seasons.

This is probably the answer - but he has had 3 straight good statistical seasons despite terrible qb play. And to your point him and Mooney together makes Bears corp much stronger. I don’t personally watch Washington at all so don’t have any opinion on him other than seeing his stat sheet.

About time for some good news on this front!

Really hope this is a minor set back and with rest he comes back with no long term issues and we get to enjoy one of the most bad ass closers in the game!

I don’t know who last year saw anything. Dude was spectacular almost all year.

If the Sox knew that they would have kept Kimbrel and traded Hendricks in the off-season.

If they are still floundering around .500 closer to deadline and Gio and Lynn are doing real good - I wouldn’t be opposed to your idea. I also love me some Trea Turned and star power.

Yeah - pitching him in that situation is not a legitimate issue (unless that was like a 3rd straight game or he was already unavailable and TLR pushed him). Sitting him down and than bringing him in the next game would be worse, quite frankly. This is not on TLR (unless he ignored advice or something else and put him in anyway). Ptatc - Since I just associate this with Tommy John - how often do the two actually correlate or come together. Is it actually most of the time in these instances, rest is what the dr ordered and they can be fine or are we at this point just waiting until he ends up with TJS?

I wish they could do a 3 way deal - get a wideout like the Washington guy or Metcalf and pay them, let Quinn go to another team and a 3rd team gets a pick.

Please don't let this turn into tommy john.

I don't get not giving Perez the shot at this point. Even if it is for a bit - he has all his options right.
