Put Peters 2nd

Chase needs to drive those inside sliders if he’s so far off the plate

Yep, huge failure by the organization to not get him a breather

That chop swing is exactly what’s causing the issues now.

Williams is getting strikeouts on pitches two feet off the plate

Stop batting him 2nd

Arrighetti is terrible. Really shocked Jays pitched him. 2-1

Merkin said yesterday he’s just not ready yet

Gavin Williams is a pitcher that whenever I watch, you wonder how anyone could ever hit him.

Old friend Paez pitching for Boston. It’s going like you think it would.

He didn’t signal foul after it happened

For example, in a couple of weeks at Cleveland, it’s projected the Sox will face two LHP

Literally didn’t see a single quote about it

Again, kudos to him for trying, but he’s been awful out there

Don’t disagree, would say the same for the other starting outfielders

That was based on his sister tweeting about it being possible. Would also say that no one outside the organization has any clue what they’re doing. A lot of the well known reporters thought for sure Thorpe would be up this week.

He might be running out of a position to play. If Bonemer is solid in CF, Peters moves to LF.

FWIW next scheduled LHP is 9/11 vs Cardinals. Pham leading off would be the worse thing to ever happen on that day (yes, sarcasm)

You really don’t think he’s not going to be starting in a corner OF spot against LHP? I wouldn’t call that the 28th man. And yes, they should have known at the deadline that hitting LHP with their outfield was a huge issue. I wouldn’t be shocked if he’s batting leadoff against LHP next time they face one (which doesn’t look for a long time actually)

It’s strange because they supposedly loved him prior to 2025. I think this is more Venable adores Pham.

Sure, and that’s why they needed another corner outfielder at the deadline.

I don’t think he’s a bad clubhouse guy. I do wonder how the fit will be on a team that is unserious in the dugout in a good way. I’m not really worried though, Vasil has the power of the wand

I spy Jo Adell

Biggest issue I have is that he’s just not good anymore. Hate this habit of acquiring players who are having terrible seasons and putting them into a pennant race.
