Why is Tim Anderson still the model? Guess nobody could be motivated to use Luis Robert, Jr. instead...

That doesn't even account for Anderson and Grandal...but they were in their 30s at least. And the first 1 1/2 seasons of Benintendi...

A shooting near the Sox stadium would go over well?

Can't throw a cutter over the middle of the plate....crushed by Greene.

He waited back on it instead of charging into the grass and making a quicker throw. McKinstry not a burner.

Terrible lackadaisical defense by Sosa this inning.

The only plus defenders are Robert Taylor Rojas and Jankowski.

Venable knows all of his flaws and pluses already. Maton 2/14 but 865 ops lol.

Jankowski let McKinstry get to second on his throw. And took them out of a dp possibility. 77 pitches...lucky to get one more inning out of him.

Ball bounced in dirt. Called a foul tip...and it is. 70 pitches...with one out in third.

6 games is not a trend...let's see where they are at Game 40-54.

Better Sox outfield defense?...lol. No way this team wins more than 50s. Double play no longer in order.

Cannon all over the place...coming out of his delivery too soon. Out of synch.

Jesus Cannon...bullpen game yet again looming.

Not that cold today...50 and sunny. Usually umps speed up the freezing weather games.

Will be a shock if Cannon's not scored on again turning over Tigers' lineup...

Vargas/Sosa numbers pretty similar. They really need to be 700+ hitters with their defensive challenges. Robert 174/417 yikes Flaherty at over 50 pitches himself.

TikTok deadline just got extended another 75 days. Sigh...

Carpenter 990 ops against righties. Judge Ohtani stuff.

That's why 2B is probably his "ideal" defensive spot. Or LF 1B DH. 50 pitches lol.

Little dirt strip from plate to mound now gone...pitchers hated it, hearkened back to stadiums 100 years ago.

What is Vargas doing? Bear claw throw triple bounce...first hop behind the mound.

So we're showcasing Jankowski for a trade? More likely is Venable is playing the lineup he trusts most to win as many games as possible...especially in the first half of the season to make a clean break from 2024 thoughts.

It would be nice for one Sox middle infield prospect to put up a 2-3 fWAR. Unfortunately his defense really needs to pick up in order to do that.

Jankowski when he was "good" was a .240ish hitter lol. At least Taylor has SOME occasional power.
