Sox fans: "In a normal season, we're not close to September."

2016

I imagine it's Collins, Gonzalez, Delmonico ---> Madrigal, Dyson, Yolmer Goins lives another day.

The pitchers are getting a lot happier with this move, Yolmer's signing (even if it's a minor league deal), and Madrigal returning.

Yup, it's from last class, not the Norge Vera/Cespedes class.

Give up nothing - as this doesn't affect Cespedes or Colas - to acquire Engel Lite, which is good because our LF is Eloy and our RF is Mazara. I'm cool with it.

Basabe officially made his debut.

As we all know, the story of Jackie Robinson is in no way shape or form political and definitely didn't involve discrimination against Black people.

I think my favorite part about this is that we're still waiting for some guys to heat up (Moncada, Mazara, EE), help is on the way (Madrigal, Yolmer solely to spell Moncada, hopefully Bummer), there can be surprise call ups (Vaughn), and trades involved. This team currently has the best offense in baseball and has room to grow.

The ninth inning was amazing work by Jason.

Dallas Keuchel's mom must be one scary woman.

IS TIM ANDERSON THE TRUE BASEBALL HEIR TO AIR JORDAN?

Get Moncada a much needed break.

About that

Yes, but Lynn isn't historically dominant, old, pitched the most innings of his career last year just before the 2020 season with it's abbreviated Summer Camp.

Wasn't Jose Quintana at one point the 6th best pitcher in baseball over a 2 year span, left handed, and under control for several years? We wouldn't be giving up Eloy and Cease, but things can fall apart, especially with Lynn's age.

This is the best/worst conundrum

Lucas Giolito brings joy and harmony to all!

Ollie Johnson likes this.

Think of the silver lining - a lot of people have been stressed as hell due to this pandemic and Lucas Giolito just gave them some momentary happiness.

Didn't catch it live unfortunately - I somehow missed the MLB alerts of "GIOLITO NO HITTER INTO THE 8th" Went back and watched the 9th and Benetti was on point during that inning.

You would rather Ryan Goins?

"We need defense with Madrigal out and Moncada hurt!" Sox sign gold glove 2B with clubhouse familiarity "Not like that!"

I was just about to google Lance Lynn's age to confirm that I wasn't insane. What is everyone smoking?

No, I believe acquiring Mookie Betts is quite consequential.
