Just wait till Pollock actually has to run something down.

This is a pretty big outfield. Johnny looks like he doesn't quite have it today, so there's gonna be lots of balls in play.

When can we get an actual RFer?

Cueto's velocity down 2-3 MPH to start the game.

First pitch swinging at a ball. And a pitcher's pitch at that.

The Sox had issues with that inside fastball all inning.

I'd much rather see Pollock here than Moncada TBH. Especially vs. a lefty.

His numbers with RISP are actually the best on the team.

Moncada, Pollock, and Grandal might as well be a black hole in this lineup.

That really makes no sense.

Cueto better get that call too.

Eloy got tied up that whole AB.

The Rangers are blacked out in Houston?

This guy's delivery is a lot like Cole Hamels.

Is this the first time all 6 of the core guys are playing together this year?

Would the Sox have sold out the afternoon game yesterday had that been Soto's debut? I actually doubt it.

Especially considering how unreliable Engel and Robert are health-wise.

Pretty much everyone thought we'd lose to Singer yesterday and we won. Now everyone thinks we'll win this one on the pitching matchup which will probably mean we'll somehow lose.

The Red Sox just DFA'd JBJ. He's obviously bad at the plate (except against us apparently), but he'd probably be the 2nd best defensive OFer on the team. Nobody will claim him but if the Red Sox release him he'd be a cheap pick up.

That was a crazy first inning. I'm really jealous of Padres fans right now.

They made the deal last minute. They probably thought there's no way this guy won't take half his paycheck.

I think I remember all the homers Gavin has hit on the road. He hit one in Baltimore and another in Detroit. I don't think he has another one on the road.

Perez started today. I forgot about Dunning actually. Alright, it's more like 3 bad starters and Dane Dunning.

There is a huge difference in BABIP in our home/away splits. I think it's probably something that works itself out over the next 2 months. I think our home BABIP is .280 while our away BABIP is .330.

Why did they even bother to acquire him if they were just gonna DFA him? Truly bizarre.
