disgusting being a sox fan.

you can only laugh. what an absolutely awful signing. a dumpster dive and they paid dollar store prices.

It absolutely sickens me to realize that the Seattle fucking Mariners have better MLB scouting and coaching than the Sox. Mariners getting production out of their fat DH (Vogelbach) for league min and have already gotten .8 fWAR out of Omar. I watch a lot of their games, his framing has gone from absolutely horrendous to just plain bad. When you hit like he does you can live with that.

We've finally found what it takes for Hahn to evaluate talent properly. All we gotta do is trade for the consensus #1 prospect in baseball a few more times and we're golden.

Well one of the greatest pure hitters of all time made it work so surely Nick will as well. We've already got a "Rod Carew" comp today for him so why not Ichiro. Come on. Stop comparing a guy hitting 270 in high A to HOFers.

No kidding. With an iso of like .60. He's getting the bat knocked out of his hands.

He has an iso of like .65 in WS. At this early point, it's not that the Sox can't haven't developed him, it's that all the fears about his lack of power were correct. Still incredibly early to write him off but right now he's looking like a utility guy and another shitty high 1st rounder.

At exactly 4.0 fWAR. Not awful. He's "on pace" for about 7 this year.

Could have been put towards a moncada extension. That ship has likely sailed however. He's going to bet on himself. Next chance will probably be in the offseason at a significantly higher AAV.

Defense has won them this game so far, they are putting on a clinic.

puke.

nasty back door breaker.

lol, did Engel switch uniforms? What an awful swing for a major leaguer.

Some people swear it makes them relaxed and relieves pain. Personally never really noticed much. Certainly don't "get high" in any meaningful sense.

Who the hell can complain about Nova so far? He entered tonight with a FIP of 2.36, xFIP 3.94 and .9 fWAR. For a dumpster dive he's actually been more than decent.

it's too bad I'm at work and can't get high. Maybe I'll try this CBD drink I bought the other day.

bad defense is like being tortured to death with a pocket knife. we've been being tortured for a decade now.

even if that's the case as soon as he squares he needs to be busting ass to first. He had plenty of time to get over there, he wasn't even close.

Good job Nova.

Un.fucking.real. Have we never GONE OVER BUNT COVERAGE? This team's coaching is garbage.

he's a 5th starter.

one hard hit ball and nobody out bases loaded with 1 in already. FFS. About to turn this game off.

This defense is going to kill my remaining hair line.

he's been fine.
