Adam Frazier is such a natural fit, hopefully the Sox have the prospects to land him. But even Escobar or Schoop will do.

Every game the Sox play vs good teams you can feel how overexposed Leury is

For such a naturally patient hitter, Vaughn's ability to spot and turn it loose on cookies is so impressive. If you groove him something hittable he very rarely takes it.

Me too. How many years did we watch the Sox run bargain signings out there and get sub replacement level production?

The pixie dust seems to be wearing off on Brian Goodwin

Probably the 2 best change-ups he's throw all night on consecutive pitches.

If you can't bunt a fastball that's middle middle you aren't going to be able to bunt anything

Impressive piece of hitting there by Collins

Lucas has nothing tonight so tough to complain about only 1 ER through 4

0 whiffs on 19 combined change-ups + curves for Lucas is alarming

Imagine how bad Yermin must be behind the plate if they're willing to play Collins every day but not give Yermin a shot

Only facing Peralta for 4 innings tonight would be such a gift.

Jake Cousins has been one of the best relievers in baseball since they called him up. Righty slider monster that throws 96. Hopefully the Sox can avoid him and Hader in this series.

And the next 2 games will be tougher. But at least the Brewers are in the same boat.

I was saving it for the right moment. 😉

I think it was to Peralta too, right? Not ideal.

Still no strikeouts for Gio through 10 batters faced...

It sounded as if the owners wanted to do universal DH in exchange for expanded playoffs. Realistically, expanded playoffs is probably the biggest chip the players can give the owners. It makes sense they wouldn't want to give that up for *just* a universal DH.

Gio and Cease getting some of the spin back on their fastballs is interesting to me. At the very least, it probably gives him a bit more margain for error if he misses over the plate.

Love to see these crisp double play turns.

The biggest outlier in 100 years. Of course he is the excepion.

So glad we'll (likely) never see a pitcher bat again after this season.

Innings just die whenever a pitcher comes to bat. Pitchers hitting is an abomination.

Peralta's command hasn't been sharp in this inning at all. Gotta cash in here.

Love seeing Vaughn continuing to hit the ball hard vs quality RHP!! He's been making so much progress over the last 2 months.
