I'm shocked to learn that Lopez has actually barrel'd a ball this year. 1 percentile in hard hit %, 3 percentile in barrel %. 10 percentile in average exit velocity. Only hitting line drives 12% of the time. Who the hell is giving him hitting advice? Cause it's horrendous. He needs to be hitting line drives, not fly balls.

I got tired of Bummer, but they really got back a bunch of minor leaguers. Maybe Shuster can still develop into someone useful, but there's really no hope for the rest.

Clevinger is tipping his pitches. When he throws his breaking ball he adjusts his grip right before his delivery and it's really obvious. He doesn't do that on fastballs.

He looked cooked.

I hope so.

When Robert is back in a few weeks they need to send Vaughn down to AAA. He's gotta work on some things.

It's pretty sad that the Twins' current win-streak is almost twice the amount of wins the Sox have. Also, they beat the Sox 7 times in that span...which is how many wins the Sox have.

Looks like that got him on the shin. That's gotta hurt.

Maldonado is so bad at framing.

He's like a .400 hitter vs. lefties this year. .170 against righties.

Keep in mind that he started the year with a home run. If it wasn't for that, his OPS might be below .300.

I don't understand the point of giving Maldonado this start when Lee basically had 3 hits yesterday. Of course he starts his day by striking out on 3 pitches.

Nice job by Ramos to get run in.

lol that pitch was way worse than the one he didn't call a strike on 0-2

What happens when there's a passed ball because it's raining too hard? Or Lopez botches a routine ground ball cause the infield is mud? There's no advantage to playing in pouring rain if you're on defense.

Inning has to be completed.

You just listed 2 guys who put in no effort to better themselves after signing their initial contract. Leaf stopped giving af even before he was drafted. He got fat before the combine. Manziel basically stopped caring about football after his first year at A&M. Both of those guys were un-coachable because they just wanted their one pay day. Caleb already made his money through NIL yet cared enough about not winning a Pac 12 title in college that he did what you posted in that GIF. He's shown that he wants to be prepared and wants to win at the NFL level by working with his coaches to adapt to Waldron's offense even before being drafted. Those points alone should show you that his problem will not be the same that caused Manziel and Leaf to fail at the NFL level. Those guys didn't care about what happened after they got drafted. Caleb Williams has not shown me he doesn't care. If he fails at the NFL level, it won't be for the same reasons why Leaf and Manziel failed.

Eloy has never seen a low sinker he doesn't like when the situation calls for swinging at anything but that.

Eloy is such a rally killer in late and close situations.

Of course Eloy manages to hit a grounder on the first pitch.

The Sox have managed to singlehandedly turn the Twins season around. 6 of their 9 wins in their winning streak are against us. What's even worse is that the Sox could easily have won 5 of those games.

Good luck against Duran

Good thing they didn't throw through this time...the last one was idiotic.

If you want someone to bunt, put Ortega or Shewmake up there.

Oh great, Kopech has no fastball command.
