they akshually just took 2/3 from the 'Stros.

well I'm not complaining it's a cut throat business and injuries happen. Gonzo at least got his cup of coffee this year so if nothing else he can forever say he was a Major Leaguer, if only for a week.

What an asset he is turning into with his defensive versatility. And he manages to fix a mechanical flaw in his swing as a rookie as well? Mercy!

Would be a bad look to cut gonzo when he is hurt and Sox usually try and avoid those. I bet they cut Lamb and do him a solid so he can try and catch somewhere else down the stretch.

Kelenic got rung last night arguing balls and strikes. The pitch he didn’t like was a clear high strike. This kid reminds me a bit of Madrigal, very cocky for how little they have accomplished in MLB. At least Nicky is a positive WAR player. both guys are very talented but the chip on shoulder look is off putting imo

He’s doing well but it’s a sample of like nothing. Nice to see him cheering Vaughn’s catch he’s had some issues with being a good team mate in the past reading between the lines with the orgs comments on him.

jesus yoan crushed that.

Lopez actually looking good as a reliever. Finding the zone for once more often than not.

arod is cringe.

wow vaughn, got a great jump!

ABC all about ABC, brutal.

this broadcast sucks so bad. jfc.

VAUGHN

bad call but might be better to move this one along and get it official.

these bat cracks are insane sounding. some of the loudest of the year. wowzers.

well damn.

yup just beat me to it. wonder what happened. showed up late?

you've been on the Internet long enough to know better! Cromulent is pretty much mainstream now to mean "good enough".

I thought Zach looked to have an improved swing coming out of spring but he's regressed badly when pressed into more action. I'm most disappointed by his receiving. I thought he was decent last year but he's taken a step back there as well. He's the type of guy that the Sox have given up on too early in the past tho. Hopefully they can get Grandal back and warmed up for the playoffs because he's a huge difference maker on this club as you said. A catcher that doesn't make an out 40% of the time, see a pissload of pitches and is a cromulent receiver is gold in MLB.

you sob, beat me to the easy karma.

yea some other division leaders scuffling. Sox somehow need to figure out a way to take 2 out of 3 in tampa. Wonder if they could even try and reconfigure the rotation to avoid a dallas start.

the impression I get from these threads, and tell me if I'm wrong, is that the Sox' lower levels are pretty intriguing with several breakouts from toolsy guys.

Now up to a 42 wRC+ and a xwOBA of .271! He's clearly not a CF and might not even be anything more than Vaughn like in a corner so he better keep hitting. Mariners on the verge of being swept by a WC2 competitor in the Yanks and have sunk to a .4% playoff chance according to FG. That team is still miles away from contending and will soon need a new RF and 3B. Good luck Mariners fans.

Good win

How is a hit against the shift luck?
