Goodness 108 MPH on that Mune Shot and it was a flick of the wrist. I haven't seen that since Frank really.

Japan's new favorite team is the Sox. My entire Twitter feed is Japanese people talking about the Sox.

Ok get everybody out of the game please.

lol John thought that was hit well.

Can John just stop with the hyperbole for one game? It's so distracting.

This Sandlin kid has some juice. He's going to give up a lot of HR but I like that he's firing strikes. Nice contrast from Noah.

Lets just pray Colson doesn't follow his footsteps as an uber talented all around up the middle player that just can't stay healthy. I feel bad even typing that out.

Yea it just doesn't matter that much. Even the best are still contributing at most 1 WAR a year from it or losing 1. You can gain or lose 2x that with defense and 4x with hitting.

Can you imagine if we just had a decent regular OF? Like a 5 WAR total OF? Christ. That and two more relievers and we'd legit have a shot at 85 wins.

Turned last night when he hung in for that single I think in his 3rd AB, could tell he was looking oppo.

There we go!

It's really bad. And it just enforces stereotypes instead of breaking them. Nobody asked for equality in the sexes for MLB umping.

Our RF is just a bermuda triangle but I never really see the opposition struggling in it, go figure.

TBF I'm not sure he could hit with a metal fungo bat.

DFA acuna before Gonzo hurts himself in AAA and get him up here.

Good job!

Buxton needs to go back to being hurt and crap.

The players proposed a "competition clause" around 150 million payroll that would act like a reverse luxury tax. Seems like an absolute non starter with cheapasses like JR still around.

Maybe, we'd look a lot better if we had signed a 20 million dollar closer.

nobody seems to know. I guess we're trying to limit innings. The pitching is a major concern obviously right now. Somehow we've been getting by on smoke and mirrors the last couple weeks. Offense has to be 5+ a night imo to win.

Bring back Da Bong!

jesus christ.

Acuna is in at SS. Sandlin starts for us. We really need this game imo. Momentum is real and the guys have to be a bit down after last night.

I agree but that's only because i don't live in Chicago. I understand it from that perspective. It was a bit jarring to wake up see in this thread celebrations about the cubs loss last night instead of ours. But again, I get it.

From a manager that ability is what you want.
