Give me more Clash !

I highly doubt Castillo would've had much if any effect on signing Machado.If anything Machado may want to distance himself from Castillo now. If I had to guess I'd say the Sox just allow him to come back after his 80 games .

Beef Welington just turned into beef jerky.

Maybe he signed with the Sox because they were the only clueless team he could find.

Not sure if Miguel Montero is still around he was DFA'd in early April and I don't see an milb stats on him. But yeah the guy just let go by the A's seemed the most likely.

See if the Mets will take some international money for Jose Lobaton who's in AAA now or a lottery ticket,

Jeanmar Gomez (30 yrs old) has been pitching pretty good for Charlotte and had 3 good years in MLB but his last 2 trys with the Phillies were disasters. He might be a AAA pitcher at this point but he should be given another shot.

Obviously bunting played a key role this game.

Ova ! Thank goodness the O's bottom of the order is as pitiful as ours.

Uno mas

Mark Trumbo apparently likes Sox pitching.

Dreaded lead off walk

The Rondons had a good game.

Yolmer says. See what I can do when I don't have to bunt.

Good AB Engel

Would it be terrible if I thought the Dash outfield could do better than Engel and Thompson ?

I know the obvious answer. It's just a slower process when you have trouble bringing your good stuff from start to start. He's not a big guy and I'd prefer the Sox tread lightly and keep his arm fresher. Right now I'd think they just need to concentrate on keeping an eye on his innings for the season rather than pushing the limits on individual starts. If he pitches north of 175 inning this year that's enough for me. Going nine is a thing of the past except on rare occasions now.

Good game. Don;t really understand those who were pushing for Reylo to go longer. Doesn't he have a problem bringing his good stuff from start to start ? You notice his last start was shorter so maybe that's why his stuff was extra crispy today. Let's see how his stuff plays next start after going 8 today. No need to tax his arm / Maybe 95-100 pitch max should be it for now.

Easy does it. It's only 7 innings. & great innings but still ,SS . Nice win. Abreu 10 game hitting streak.

This and if Kopech repeats what he did last year with a bad month of starts 26 is way too high for the O/U. Hope I'm wrong .

First thing I i thought when I saw the Rodon picture in the thread was Jake Burger . He looks heavy.

Going after the elusive 2 game winning streak.

Don't think there would be a lot of happy campers here if the Sox drafted SInger 4th especially after reading that article from earlier in the thread about HS RHP prospects taken early.

What what page of the thread did the 8th inning start ? I should avoid reading the thread until then

Predicting the Sox are 28 games below .500 by 6/20
