If only Alberto could have done that to end the Twins' series, alas.

Grandal opposite field single on the infield. Miracles do exist... along with Benintendi XB hits.

The funny thing is Hibbard is now careening back and forth wildly with equal strains of negativity and positivity. Previously... 90-95% positive. Also, Flavum.

Who's going to stop them/him, Putin?

Ian Hamilton trying to close out 3-2 leads for Yankees at Tampa Bay...

Sure, we might agree with you had the division lead not reversed from potentially 6 to 8 games after blowing 4 consecutive chances to sweep Minnesota. That and having to beat three teams now instead of just 1-2. In the end, what do the Sox get out of losing Rodon Grandal Lynn Lopez Giolito, Graveman etc., with absolutely nothing back to show for it? Just another 5-7 years of mired in mediocrity. (Competing this year also requires Hendriks to come back at 100% too... and he doesn't look anywhere close yet physically.)

A’s had some numbers like that this week at home.

Seems to have inspired a Red Sox run. Jaren Duran on a tear with over a .400 average for almost a month.

Tatis finally having a decent game.

https://www.mlb.com/news/houston-astros-top-30-prospects-list-2023-preseason Assuming Giolito Lynn Clevinger all on the market along with pretty much any member of the bullpen paired with that starter... Catching prospect makes a lot of sense too if they can actually stick at that position.

He did everything so easily and was so naturally gifted everyone perceived him as loafing... so a bit similar to Moncada there. Certainly didn't seem to play with a sense of joy and exuberance. Pretty moody.

Maybe Reynaldo shaving helped. JR influence.

Rios was always a me first player... maybe not clownish but he was pushed out in Toronto and it wasn't by accident. Ozzie even struggled to get the most out of him.

On pace for 54-108 now.

Except for nearly getting thrown out of nearly every game. Lynn upped his trade value... just a bit.

Robert/Andrus best offense and defense of the night... Almost gave up another homer there, Reynaldo.

Robert picking up fWAR points by the inning tonight...

Leadoff walk lol.

Lopez trying to avoid another blown save somehow... Lynn in line for first win.

Two consecutive is max.

Grandal with back problems flaring up on that awkward swing.

7's ERA reliever takes place of Lynn's 7+.
