He should sit Abreu's sorry ass with the way he has been playing.

As long as he doesn't get sent to any of the Sputniks or similarly named satellites, he should be ok with it

Gavdog Millionaire seems to have heard the criticism from soxtalk a few days ago and proceeded to raise his OPS by about 70 points in 3 games. Yeah buddy.

Bite your tongue unless you want to forever be labeled a Jose Abreu hater. The dude has been a mediocre player this season when you factor in his pathetic defense. Gavin Sheets can't come quickly enough.

2 homer night for him ?

Also Sam Abbott sporting a cool .423 obp in the beginning of the AZL season. Guy seems to have a great eye. Interesting prospect.

Hey got 6 reputation points out of those. Gotta give him that

There's been a lot of doom and gloom lately around here. Sadly I think it is a select few usual suspects, so I know the majority isn't as pessimistic. What have you been happy with/pleasantly surprised with/optimistic about? Lenyn Sosa dominating great falls as as infielder has been an awesome surprise, dating to his success last year. Lambert adding velocity and holding his own at every level has been a great surprise. I'm also excited about the fireball relief prospects we have down there. The future is bright ?

Fact. Nobody is dumb enough to trade 3 prospects when their values are at low point. Just bringing the discussion into the gutter on purpose.

Matthei O'Davidson will be an inning burner in blowouts from here on out. Book it. Valuable roll to have honestly.

The minor league systems are looking very promising. I don't get how people can't be slightly optimistic about what they have you going down there. Big time outfield and infield depth, ace potential starters + solid back and starters, and some big time relief prospects.

Despise is a strong word. Especially for Dye. That's gotta just be fake news from Greg.

Did people despise Dye and Garland? Thought they were generally liked.

It was the same way with the cubs rebuild. The dumb meatball fans who thoroughly oppose the rebuild will keep whining during the rebuild and then jump in the bandwagon when the team is good.

Davidson looked VERY sharp on the mound today. He looks like he may have what it takes to an a relief pitcher. The breaking balls were filth. Do the sox use him as a 1b/3b/dh/relief pitcher? The guy would be super valuable if he could pull that off

Fire Rick and make Steverson the interim coach. Lets see what he's got.

So now we're putting Collins in the Barry bonds, big hurt, and babe Ruth category? Good to know.

I'm suggesting its age appropriate and there is nothing that screams elite to me in regards to his plate discipline. Collins is what I would call elite.

What about his .270 average and .360 obp as a 22 year old in high a screams "elite"?

PTATC, could you take a look at these numbers and let us know what's going on? Is this better than Abreu?

Proof?

It's getting to be that time. Hopefully Soria and some other can net us some decent prospects. Pawn them off and tank, baby!
