I hope you're listening to the Sox broadcast with the volume on

Beat me to it. I liked them the first two games, but Jason has gone more and more off topic each game. He doesn't need to be cracking jokes all the time.

I'm filling in for my guy chitownsportsfan right now - Benetti is awful right now. Quit going off topic so damn much.

Good work by Grandal.

I noticed that as well. Hope he is ok

Umpire cucked Yermin

Their pitching rotation just does not impress me tbh. With their offense not producing, they aren't a good team.

Yay, another night of Len and Jason

Oh wow, for some reason I thought Eloy was due back later, like sometime in September. That's great to know. Eloy-Robert-Vaughn OF confirmed.

I don't want him back if Yermin is mashing. I have doubt he will be better than Yermin this year after the long layoff from baseball and conditioning. He'll need to get his strength back and get back in his groove. I just don't think he will be able to jump right into it and be better than Yermin. If Abreu is still garbage, then maybe Eloy will be better than him off the bat.

Yeah, it's really unfortunate. I went back to using chrome for a minute and got an ad on here about having an itchy ass and the proper way to wipe. Went right back to use Opera as my browser because of ads...

I don't want him back this year if it means he takes ABs away from Yermin. Get healthy, get your strength back, and come back next year ready to roll

Funny how everybody was so hellbent on writing him off as being able to legitimately catch.

I liked them early on in the week, but last night was pretty horrible. Jason veers too far off topic sometimes. There were too many stretches where he was trying to crack jokes and/or just wasn't focused on the game. Len and Stone have been my favorite pairing.

God damn, Benyamin is a big dude. I'm excited to see him progress.

Look at what Eovaldi got. I don't see why Rodon couldn't top that if he keeps pitching like a cy young candidate.

You're just trying to make us all jealous

This is so stupid, christ

Vaughn going to ever hit a homerun?

You ain't wrong. Those who are watching are in-between those outcomes.

His bat is painfully slow this year. This might be the end, tbh. This is why you don't trade Yermin this offseason...

That was awesome, lol

Do you think you would call him out as much as you do if 1. he wasn't perceived as a Sox "insider", and 2. his political views aligned with yours?

I still hate the idea of trading Yermin so Eloy can be DH. We all know how great Eloy's potential is. However, Yermin has been nothing short of spectacular. It doesn't look like a fluke, either. He has huge power, works the count, takes walks, quick bat, and has an awesome approach. He'll shorten his swing with 2 strikes - depending on the pitcher out there. He can still mash homeruns with his shortened stroke, too. Many baseball professionals think he is the real deal after what they have seen. Furthermore, DHs don't have that much value. A DH like Yermin with 1 year of experience definitely won't have much value. Abreu has 1 year left on his deal. The Sox should start with Eloy-Robert-Vaughn in the OF. If it is that much of a detriment to the team, you trade somebody early in the season. See if they can handle it for a year, then move Eloy or Vaughn to 1st/DH the next year.

Imo, at least give him a 10 day contract or whatever so he can retire under his longtime manager. One last game. Give him the sendoff he deserves. He's an all time great.
