No Eloy this series due to bereavement

Hitting a ton of grounders again. Just judging from the play-by-play on milb.com, I’ve noticed a ton of ground outs to first base.

Alonso, the catchers, Nate Jones, Abreu if he's actually washed up. They're already the 2nd worst team in fWAR defensively, and that's a big reason they've lost some of their recent games.

Yes they are far from those teams in terms of talent. They’re still starting 3-4 crappy players every game.

They do? That’s your fault for overrating the Sox talent level.

Blake going to get sent down you think?

He made a lot more contact in the minors. He also hit the ball hard all over the place. Right now, even his contact is relatively weak. He'll get better, he has to make adjustments. Defensively though....he's a DH

Peter Alonso is mashing the hell out of the ball

Last pitch wasn't even close....just once it would be nice if the Sox called up a prospect that took the league by storm.

Actually bad outfield defense was the likely difference.

Eloy needs to make some adjustments...those swings were awful. Looks to have no confidence at all.

ugh, pitch right down the middle and he rolls over AGAIN

nice quick hands...now steal and let Abreu flip one to rf

good AB! Didn't try to do too much. Garcia should steal 2nd on the first pitch here.

Ruiz is not a major leaguer

another homer already for Bleday

yep good to see the fastball velocity and missing bats. 94.7 average fastball velocity

Can’t convince me this is a well-coached team

He can’t read shallow fly balls

My god, the outfield defense has been a total joke

Yeah Eloy still hurting. Wasn’t swinging with much authority there

Feel free to frame the ball

.230 expected hit pct

So because he is clumsy out there it’s an excuse to not try?

Hangers galore
