good at bat! he fouled off a borderline 2-2 inside pitch that he's been taking for called 3rd this year -

Kind of happy he wasn't going 100%, as that could have been painful for him at home with how much the catcher was blocking the plate. -

Not sure he was going full speed, but the thing is, that was just a ridiculous play by Andrus. Bat also was in Yoan's way. -

He was clearly blocking the plate -

Hopefully he knows the scouting report that Colon will try and get the called 3rd with his 2 seamer running back over the plate. It's a good pitch for Yoan to hit, but also the type he gives up on. -
Did you see what I mean about how he loses his mechanics when he tries to purposely elevate? Gets under it just a bit.

He really settled down, got a lot of outs vs former major leaguers. Slider command was really good last two innings.

Awful command for Kopech tonight. 4 walks, HBP, 9 outs recorded. Most of the balls far enough off the plate even Avi wouldn't swing at. If he had this type of command in majors, probably wouldn't make it out of the 3rd. Eloy looks great at the plate against MLB caliber starter.

See my earlier post, reason to believe this is their new strategy as Rutherford and Adolfo also missed consecutive games this week and then played

Leury and Cedeno to Milwaukee could make sense given their injuries
-
Assuming he's healthy, Robert isn't playing again. Seems like Omar has been playing guys 3-4 games then benching them 2. Rutherford and Adolfo missed back-to-back games also this week. If this is true, just another ridiculous move by the org.

Believe it's 40

Those saying he's a total bust are being ridiculous. Those saying he's fine and he's a former number 1 prospect are being a tiny bit simplistic. Let's not forget his prospect ranking was beginning to fade in some circles due to exactly the struggles we're seeing now. He has two drastic holes in his game that need to be fixed (strikeouts and hitting LHP). The concerning thing is the defensive blunders have seemingly come out of nowhere, and the organization seems to be questioning his focus on the field.

He was known as Jermaine Dead his first few months here
-
According to fangraphs, Sox offense now has worst walk rate and worst strikeout rate. Was surprised to see the walk rate so bad given Anderson and Davidson's improvements.
-
Started off the year great defensively. The last month has been a total disaster. Making a tough play is nice, but you can't be botching the most routine of grounders 2-3 times a week. It's demoralizing for pitchers, and we've seen quite a few of his errors lead to big innings.
-
If his fielding continues to suck, wouldn't shock me at all if they demote him to send a message.

Odor looked like he had no prayer vs him
