None of the rental pitchers have surplus values of more than $8 million. That's like the value of a mid level prospect. A lot of those guys make too much money and aren't having good enough years to justify the cost. Some teams might get desperate, but they're not stupid enough to trade top 100 guys for 2 months of a guy making $20 million a year.

I saw the Sox logo pop up on the ticker too, but I thought the Adell and Soler thing was about the Yankees.

You sure that's not a mistake? Why would we want either of those guys? We already have too many right handed OFers and the guys we already have aren't any worse than Soler or Adell.

Ray pretty much breezing through 5 against the Padres. I watched a few innings and he doesn't seem like a guy fishing for Ks like he used to. As others have said, the problem is that his peripherals aren't good and his home/road splits are pretty drastic. Oracle Park is one of the hardest parks to hit homers in. However, if he pitched all of his games at the Rate, he's expected to give up 2 less homers than he has given up this year. At the very least, he will definitely eat innings and keep you in games, which is an improvement over Fedde and Schultz.

Reminds me of the 4 game series in Cleveland.

Didn't really have much business winning today either.

Why did they keep calling fastballs when Cruz clearly can't locate them?

Suck it Cruz!

Mune is up first.

All of Soxtalk in shambles

Holy s%*# he actually did it Now go win this damn game.

Dominguez sucks against LHH

Huge strikeout

Shadows are approaching the plate now. We might be hitting in shadows in the bottom half if this takes too long.

Goldschmidt did his job there

Beni is playing outfield lol

Dominguez here is like a guaranteed run at minimum.

God damn it...

Cruz is better against lefties than righties. Need him to spike a splitter for a wild pitch and then a bloop single from Chase.

Chase and Mune

Might need a double to win it here because of how slow Beni is.

Bednar

Dominguez pitching next inning, hopefully it doesn't get there.

BENI!

You'd think Braden can hit a grounder to the right side since he grounds out like 55% of the time.
