In a rebuild year, I’m ready to give Covey another shot. He’s had a couple bad control games himself, but Fulmer is just too inconsistent and certainly won’t be in the rotation in a couple years.

After starting 2-0, the Sox will be the last team to win their 10th game, hopefully tomorrow.

Vizquel sounded very high on Rutherford today.

NL teams are 19-6 playing with a DH this season.

Orioles 9-27 Sox will be 9-28 on Sunday night. (Reverse jinx)

Fowler played in his second big league game today. So, we good?

Just a little kudos to Nick Markakis closing in on 2100 hits at age 34. Dude knows how to stay on the field and produce.

Adolfo 1-1, .330

Just watched the Leury play, and that was nitpicky by Renteria.

Agreed. Reds, Orioles, White Sox are losing 100+. Marlins and Padres may fall back to that level of suck, and maybe the Royals depending on the Tigers being a little better than expected. The bottom five teams this year will set an all time low winning percentage for bottom five teams...by design.

I’ll support any manager not condoning jogging down the line anytime. It doesn’t have to be running for your life, but run hard.

So 56-72 starting Friday. That seems very optimistic no matter what they do. 54 games left with Indians, Yankees, Red Sox, Angels, Astros, Cubs, Brewers, and Cardinals. That’s 1/3 of a regular season. 14-40 at best?

He could have, and should have. Unfortunately, managing is CYA (cover your ass). They give pitchers with more experience the final three outs.

With 10 days left in the season. Ha.

When the Sox get the 2nd pick instead of 3rd, we can look back at this one and smile. I’m grasping.

Pirates happy flight for sure. Oh well.

Meanwhile, Gomez has an ERA under 1, and he seems to be able to go more than an inning.

This team is something, and it ain’t good.

Don’t blow this, Nate.

Omar comped Adolfo to Manny Ramirez, hopefully without the juice.

They have the right to play him a full season in the minors at age 21, and then hold off a few weeks next year. It’s been done many times.

Eloy isn’t skipping AAA.

His lower half is huge.

On his last double, he was out trying to get a triple because millenials are obsessed with cycles these days.

How do they keep Eloy down until next April/May to get the extra year? If they can’t, wait until Super 2 is past, and bring him up. He’s a born hitter.
