Dick Allen

He can’t hit righties.

Burger has played a lot better defensively than I was lead to believe. Maybe he can play 2B.

He hasn't been good but he was improving. The issue to me is hurting himself. Running into walls and nets is stupid. It probably wasn't the smartest idea to try to catch a ball at the wall you have no shot at, in a game that doesn't count, although that injury was a freak imo.

Well deserved for TA. He brings more than just numbers.

Does Stone get paid to say things on the Score? He knows, like everyone else, the Sox are a better team with a healthy Eloy in the line up. This team is playoff bound because the have feasted, which they are supposed to do, on the bad teams. Against the really good teams, they have struggled for the most part. The good teams make the playoffs. The injured guys coming back can be the difference against them. It makes your entire roster more confident.

Adam Dunn, Jose Valentin....

Zavala 1-17 with 12 strikeouts in his career.

This DFA limbo is probably good for Eaton to rest his legs. He can still help a team if healthy.

Yes, he may be stronger than he ever was.

Rick needs to start selling.

They should have listened to Soxtalk and picked up Jason Heyward.

Hopefully he stays healthy, because Burger is going to be the ultimate "professional hitter".

Some speculation that Eaton winds up back in DC.

Our Chuck is not happy. He and Eaton are buds.

If Pineda is ever going to throw a no hitter, today is his chance.

They are going to have to change the NBCSC commercial with Eaton telling us what we are watching.

I don’t think I have ever seen 2 OFs and a camera man have no idea where a pop up went.

Peter Gammons thinks the Sox should make a play for Jacob Stallings.

What difference does that make?

Not only that, the job is like the weatherman being blamed because it’s too hot or too cold. Moncada dives awkwardly hurts his hand, fire the trainer.

The Sox don’t have prospects sexy enough for the Cubs to make them prohibitive favorites.

Trout was 6-8 weeks. Hopefully Grandal is not as long, but if it is, he should be back for the homestretch.

The good news is if he has to miss a month or two, he , Robert, Eloy, all should be pretty strong at the end of the season and the playoffs when other guys are probably dying. Could be huge.

It looked terrible because he was in a lot of pain, but the physical act that caused it to happen was minimal. Hopefully that keeps the severity down. It wasn't like he was busting his ass going somewhere, he just took a pitch That calf muscle couldn't have been as engaged as it would be for other things.

I am not a medical professional, but I am thinking even if he had sat out a week, that calf was a ticking time bomb and the same thing was going to happen. There really was no good answer IMO.
