Highlight reel

that's crazy if true, I don't remember any of those games

TA doesn't have the OBP for me to be a leadoff guy, he also doesn't work counts or take walks. He is the prototypical #2 hitter. He can hit the ball anywhere on the field, which is ideal in the 2 spot. Luis right now for me would be a better leadoff guy as he's probably the 2nd fastest guy on the team who has the OBP to be a successful leadoff guy. He also can hit leadoff HRs like TA if he feels like it. Ideally I would put Luis in the 3 spot but seniority dictates lineup construction or something. Abreu would be driving in more runs hitting 4th with TA > Moncada > Robert than he does currently, by hitting 3rd

just a day off for Robert I'm assuming

this team is fucked

lmfao nice pitch fatty

he's not good at SS, this board used to roast Jeter over the years for being over hyped, TA isn't even on that level

this is the defense we get to enjoy at SS in the playoffs, get ready boys

They aren't going to be forced to change their name. The logo tho? yeah I can see that

as awful as their approach was that inning, I can tell you right now they're gonna fuck this kid up badly tonight based on his stuff

you guys explanation makes sense. for some reason, I read "elimination" as being eliminated from the playoffs

nah it's gotta be an error, they don't show an E for Oakland or Seattle. sorry for posting this in two threads haha

yeah that's what I thought, but on the division standings page it shows an E next to Toronto

MLB.com says Toronto is eliminated, yet theyre only 2GB on the wildcard. How can they already be eliminated?

How is Toronto eliminated with 8 games left and they're only 2 games out of the wildcard?

Bullpen lol

Brian Goodwin is so bad OMG

How many IP does Kopech get next year? Will they roll a hybrid 5+ man rotation? Giving Kopech alternating starts to increase his workload?

does Goodwin make the post season roster?

really? is there a video of this? I don't have access to NBC Sports Chi

imo you can't ignore how the majority of players the Sox acquire at deadlines and during the offseason end up coming here and performing well below their career numbers, it's been an issue for years and I'd chalk it up to the atmosphere and environment that is fostered, they aren't nearly as effective at creating a winning atmosphere like more professional clubs do (like STL, TB, BOS, even post scandal HOU). I would love to talk to guys like Melky Cabrera and ask him what was different about the Sox (training staff, coaching, preparation techniques, etc) compared to NYY Maybe I'm way overthinking this but it just seems that way, guys come here and more often than not we are left scratching our heads about why they suck once the uniform changes

"NOTHING TO SEE HERE GUYS, EVERYTHING IS FINE, LALALALALA SHUT UP"

ball game

wait til they clinch, it'll be even worse

Tigers gonna sweep this corpse team
