Burger is the one guy in the lineup besides TA that realizes that you shouldn't pull a fucking pitch on the outside corner

f*** yeah, getting me a Sheets jersey now

Glad he got out of it but Lopez isnt good, you can't keep putting him into leverage innings, he can't handle that s%*#

oh wow leaving him in is blowing up all over grifols face, he's been getting through these innings with cunning and guile, not overpowering stuff, letting Cleveland see him a 3rd time through is borderline malfeasance

5-1? alright I've seen enough, screw this team!

Bell is gonna do some damage here edit: did not expect a strikeout there lmao

LOL at that throw from Alberto, he might have a worse arm than fucking Benintendi

he's yanking everything, I expected him to be awful tonight, dude is a mess

they aren't moving Burger up because they don't wanna send a message that everytime you struggle you get buried at the bottom, they aren't gonna move Burger up or Vaughn down until Vaughn goes on some Ventura binge or Burger turns into Robert and I don't agree with that philosophy because they're too far back to be massaging egos but it is what it is

without looking it up, I feel like the Sox have historically performed well against him the last couple years

What happened to Shane Bieber's stuff? I'm not talking about all the runs he gave up, his stuff looked very mediocre

Not sure? I'm sure he isn't ready, but the Sox are in desperation mode right now, which is why they rushed TA back.

Katz was great, His Rosetta Stone was called Spider-Tac

I only looked at the next 2 years lol, I'm just pissed off.

he's better than every FA for the next 3 years edit: and he might take a reasonable deal given his numbers decreasing

They need to re-sign TA to a long term deal imo, like right now. There's nothing for SS beyond CM and he's so far from being ready.

Must watch video. ,

@South Side Hit Men I'm fine with giving Katz credit for Giolito, but not those other guys

yikes https://blogs.fangraphs.com/kopech-turns-to-rubble/ The fact that Katz hasn't been fired yet is actually remarkable.

I'm worried about Robert being surrounded by AAA players the next 3 years, sapping him of all his desire and drive to be at his best. and then the Sox trade him once he hits his 20m/year 2026 and 2027 seasons because he isn't performing at the level we expect, and don't get a very good return on him only to see him move on and be a beast what a cluster f***, and the fans don't deserve this s%*#.

what is going on here

ridiculous (in both good ways and bad) is he gonna come back and expect to get major league hitters out throwing 92-93?

only way I can see it working with Yoan at 3b is to keep Eloy in RF and ? at DH, yuck

Not with Andrus at 2b, he's clearly done

When Eloy comes back as the DH, you cannot platoon Sheets and Burger, that would be ridiculous and blowing an opportunity to have Yoan, Vaughn, Eloy, Burger, Robert , TA, Benintendi, Grandal and eventually Colas all in the same lineup The only way you accomplish this is to move Yoan back to 2B and bring Andrus off the bench or play him when Moncada needs a day off Will the Sox have the balls to do this? We will see how serious they are when the opportunity presents itself.
