Dick Allen

It's weird, I've interacted with Brooks a couple of times, and he seems like a great guy, but a lot of people seem to have problems with him.

I didn't go there last year, but for a couple years before that, they were using her booth as a first aid station. They quietly rid themselves of organ music several years ago.

He looks a little like Davis Martin.

If he stays healthy, and that is a huge if, the Sox will never get the value Robert would give a good team. I think he would flourish. Again, I fail to se why any team would throw him a strike right now unless the game is out of hand.

The Sox are bad enough where they should reward guys for performing. Probably he falls flat on his face in the Major Leagues. So what? He earned a shot. Give it to him. I was a big Andrew Vaughn fan, but he is what he is. How much more do we have to see?

They should have sent him to their spring training complex.

That’s another reason Jason was better. He came up with Sox Math because he was clearly a mathlete.

It’s 4-1 bases loaded and Schriffen thinks the batter is the tying run.

If Beni is on 3rd, Robert steals 2nd. No one calls him out.

Beni should be on 3rd.

If your top offensive prospect is sent to the spring training facility because of struggling, you can spin it all you want, it’s a bit of a problem .i still hope his issues are fixable, because if he can’t hit good gas without cheating, he’s screwed these days.

Nice to see some new blood.

Good thing they got Eder.

Yes, and they will always point out the sucesses. Odds are, it won't propel him back to future star status, but it's probably a better look than a demotion.

No they fired him, and Frank went to him when he struggled after he was gone. Apparently he was a little to gruff for some of the players.

He said they would win more games this year. Promise made. Promise kept. He is top notch.

I think Smith will be nails. But he won’t go 9. How many runs can that line up score?

It doesn't say much when Jacob Amaya is right now a better baseball player than a guy the organization has been touting and we have anxiously awaiting for a couple of lean years.

It would help their reputation a bit if someone once every 10 years or so, comes out of their system looking like they know how to hit.

Nothing to worry about. The Sox have a hitting guru.

Schriffen will make it seem like it's heading to the concourse.

Comcast was in business with these teams and each team let themselves go to hell. They aren’t going to take on risk being in business with them again.

They probably had a defibrillator on hand when they told him. It used to be all the Cubans. Now it’s all the rule 5s.

Unless you have elite starting pitchers, why wouldn't you use an opener the vast majority of the time? You are going to use the bullpen anyway. If you get the opposite handedness, it forces the other manager's hand, and his bench is either blown in the 3rd inning or your opener is going to be R/R or L/L for the most part.
