There we go. Looked like an easy DP off the bat

Yes, he does make good decisions

Braden with some god awful swing mechanics

Respectfully, f*** that. If he’s too soft to try and recover during a pennant race, then get rid of him. This might be the only chance he ever gets to play in the MLB postseason.

Martin has no command tonight

Every rumor suggests they will never stay at the current site

I’m not even sure he lasts the whole season on the Sox next year at this rate

You can’t continue to play Murakami. He’s killing them with his at bats.

Never heard a single bad thing about him, especially from former players.

Vargas not playing. Hope he didn’t hurt his hand/wrist on some of those check swings last night

Just an unforced error bringing him in

That’s why they just need to find a way to make postseason, and the pitching should stabilize (unless Venable shows no urgency still). Say there are 27 innings you have to fill, you can get probably half that by your main relievers

He needs to be extension candidate 1

Crazy that I didn’t even consider that for him. That’s great. Wanted to suggest that might not be true, but only Yordan and Caminero for sure would be above him.

Their wild card lead isn’t much different than the Sox

Yeah absolutely there’s been progress, but a few months ago, we were dreaming of an absolutely loaded roster in a few years anchored by Colson and Mune.

Would really leave a sour taste given how much progress they seemed to be making in forming a core.

Sox are batting .227 in the second half, tied for 27th. Top 5 in strikeouts as well. Top 10 in homers.

There’s just no urgency

Could you imagine the freak out if they had given him a 5/150 extension?

Yep, let’s give someone else a try.

Not a major leaguer right now

18 hits, 3 strikeouts from Sox pitching

Today shaping up to be worst case scenario

Two different fly balls off the wall by Phillies with bad base running cost them that game
