Ball game.

That was a nasty pitch and Jose did a great job extending the AB laying off the previous sliders.

Eloy.

And that's exactly what I have a hard time with anyone saying Colas shouldn't be up. How does Payton or Haseley help the Sox when Colas has shown ability to hit both RH and LH pitching , has a gun for an arm and fields better than any of those guys ?

They should worry more about winning a winnable division. Could be they just want to show Colas who's boss after him mouthing off about being a slave. I know it sounds petty but it is the Sox.

Available for a month straight would be a sign of life along with hitting well. But with Seby still hitting well and getting on base enough it doesn't bother me when Grandal is out.

Doesn't someone have to play a month straight in order to qualify for that kind of statement ?

But OMG you have to add him to the 40 and you might need him in 2028 when the Sox are fighting for last place.

3 AB's left only down by one. Don't give up.

And he just flat out doesn't catch a lot of them when no one is on base. Every time it happened you see him bend his glove afterwards.

At some point Julio Rod is going to hurt the Sox.

Keep muffing pitches you should be catching Grandal.

Free Colas !

Among players on the Sox with over 250 PA Sheets is barely behind Grandal in P/PA 4.14 to 4.13. Hasn't translated into a lot of walks though.

While ABreu forgets what HR's feel like.

Need an x-tra base hit here AJP.

Encouraging 2 AB's for Yo . 107 and 109 MPH hits.

But at some point you are what you have been whether it's a bunch of injuries or declining performance.

Excellent JC.

Nice 1st Johnny.

Happy Birthday !

They have to win the division outright. They won't be winning any tiebreakers.

Forgot Lynn.

To be fair he could have been rusty from the time off but Cairo said ,when asked, if Robert was 100% , "It's September , no one is 100%". He made contact but nothing solid but as I said I'd like to take a look at how he does in another start and then go from there. I know having him in the lineup helps defensively and adds speed but he has to contribute offensively too especially if Cairo decides to keep using Grandal in the middle of the order and sticks Moncada's weak bat back at 3rd. If the Sox are going to win the division they need offensive help badly. P.S. Free Colas !

This might help .https://www.spotrac.com/mlb/disabled-list/cumulative-team/ you can sort it a number of ways . Interesting Covid 19 is the injury that has affected the most players on the list.
