Dick Allen

The guy is on pace for over 80 extra base hits and he is driving in lots of runs.

WTF?

Reliever WAR is a bit crazy to use. Mariano Rivera, who was a no doubt first ballot HOFer, made it to 3 WAR a couple of times, but was generally a 2-2.5 guy. So using a reliever's WAR vs. a position player's isn't really accurate.

Ankle sprain x Rays negative

That’s what I thought. Apparently the Red Sox trainer also came running out. Maybe something popped.

Yolmer is sick. I would expect an infielder.

Devers can really hit. He runs the bases like he came out of the White Sox organization.

The guy in the stands looked like a bloated Rick Hahn

I actually think he is a victim of his own success. I agree with Stone, he has made some unreal plays, now he thinks he can make everything. He will learn.

Fulmer has looked good tonight. He also looked good at Texas.

Fulmer going back for his degree. Probably realizes he is going to need a real job.

Eloy should probably wear a helmet in the field.

The last 2 grounders to short haven’t shown too much baseball IQ.

Gives McCann a break from catching. I am sure he catches tomorrow and Collins watches.

He looks like he should have some power.

Screw Ozzie. Hire Ditka. Unfortunately, Ricky will be here until he screws up JR's Dunkin Donuts order multiple times.

Why? He is arb eligible. Why not make sure he doesn’t turn back into James McCann.

I think he was overthrowing the last couple.

I am getting sick of the black jerseys.

Peanuts wouldn't have been worth it. Archer was right handed for Jose Quintana. Signed cheaply and an advanced statistician's wet dream. You wouldn't have gotten anything close to that for Rodon.

Just like we do on here when someone struggles or gets hurt or gets sent down...we look for bargains. Someone was hoping to get a guy who was a #3 overall pick for peanuts.

I would think coming off the shoulder surgery, he value wasn't that high, even if he was pitching well at the time. You would have to figure with the layoff, he would hit a wall eventually, and he did.

He was able to return from that. Now he has no shoulder issue, so why does he have no chance to return? You did say he was done.

I do think people bank on TJ surgery being no big deal, but there have been several guys who have come back not so well from it, at least initially. Rosenthal, Smylie, Burdi....So with 1 year to go before he goes wherever he wants, you would have to think Rodon is seriously a non tender candidate. It probably depends on how the rehab is going.
