Yolmet once hit one 440 ft.

The good news is the Sox probably will have 5 runs before Yolmer gets to his 2nd AB.

Tha'ts what I said before the trade deadline . If you aren't making any trades to improve the team this season what will change during the off season ? Maybe more players available , more GM's willing to trade in a more stable season? During the winter I doubt the Covid outlook gets any better. It could get worse . We will get a few more looks at Dunning and Cease so I'm not ruling out that the Sox can still win the World Series this year. But they at least could ve tried to get another quality arm for the pen with Bummer hurt and Cishek a non factor.Too many untested youngsters in the pen and Detwiler a guy who never in his career proved he can do the job consistently. We've been somewhat lucky guys like Marshall and Cordero , both reclamation projects, have performed credibly . Rodon has to be in the pen when he comes back . Don't even give him any opener starts.

Maybe. It doesn't make sense to troll Abreu if you are a Sox fan. I can understand concern about the contract like a majority of the board did. But it been made pretty common knowledge that Abreu is a class act and plays papi to the young Latin players not just young Cubans. How is it possible to hate Abreu ? How is it possible to troll a Sox player so likable and influential ?

Try this: Highway Robertry

Yes. Looking forward to the next week to see if YoYo Is back. Of course if he gets hot for a week, all that running just might make him turn up lame again. Hopefully he gets to trot around the bases a few times !

Good hitting. Won without a HR. Moncada ready to break loose . Abreu long hitting streak ,crucial RBI's. Dunning not at best but kept us in the game. Colome one again pitches just well enough to get the job done.

I have no idea what you just said but maybe it's funny.

Has he been informed that the Sox didn't trade anyone at the deadline ?

Mazara had been a model of consistency for 4 years. Sucks that whatever kept him out has kept him from producing at even those levels. His normal numbers against RH's would look pretty good right now.

Yesterday to me was most likely to win considering we hadn't lost to a LH yet.

Exactly. Look at Robert. Has he yet hit 3rd through 6th I'm the order ? If so, not much.

There's also Ruiz.

Still might be helpful finishing innings or for middle relief.

Stone's way of saying free Yermin.

Well deserved

I never tire of accolades for Robert.

If he is lying. You dont know squat. Nothing he says or does is ever none of our business. If you truly think he had Covid act accordingly and show a little compassion.

I haven't seen anyone mention this but have you noticed that Yoan lately has double clutched, or more accurately, had trouble getting the ball out of his glove ? He's off in all aspects of his game.

Supposedly the Sox wanted to make Holt an for 3.5M but was deemed an inappropriate use of funds.

One more thing. Start thinking of Robert just not as ROY but as MVP.

I'm glad you brought up doubting. Although I heavily advocated making a trade I am fine that nothing happened I did however notice a trend in trade discussions. The word " scared " came up quite a bit and also many seemed to think that our true contention years lied ahead. This is baseball. Once in the playoffs anything can happen. Start believing in this team. Just because the Cubs and Astros had teams that didnt win in their 1st playoff years doesnt mean that's how it works. Anything is possible.

Did you get game thread fever and become an idiot all of a sudden ? Trading Madrigal does not equal keeping Mendick for half a decade only for the rest of this year. Maybe you caught McCann disease. The one where you become a decent ballplayer but everyone waits for you to slump so they can pounce and say you are and you will always be what you were. I expect better from you.

Bad Company ?

Mendick ,Yermin, EE ,Mazara, Cishek Kopech
