Not sure, but 9 spot is exactly where I want him once Robert and Yaz are back. Alas, they aren't tho, so 2nd spot is better - especially against RHP.

Completely agree. I think they're just scared to punt him. We're a Goodwin or Sheets injury away from being super duper short on lefty bats again. I think they'll just option Sheets for Robert and trying to make it til 9/1. Then call up Sheets and Zavala (goes does when Yaz comes back). Would be nice to have another arm in the pen, but I would think they'd want a 3rd catcher, and I don't see them not brining Sheets back. Edit: but that doesn't include Billy, who I think they'd want. So honestly, not sure. Guessing they're just trying to keep him in the org in case they need him, but the more I think about it, his roster spot is much better used elsewhere.

Seeing as though Lamb has made 2 starts at 3B this year, I think they trust Leury at 3B quite a bit more than Lamb.

I know you're just joking, but I do think his 20 days are up on Monday. So if they want to keep him AAA, they're going to have to option him after this weekend which I highly doubt they'll do.

Sheets lives to fight another day.

Said it many times before, and I’ll say it many times again. Yaz is the glue of this team. He’s the perfect fit. He counteracts a lot of what this team does poorly. Is he a perfect player? No but he’s really damn good and the squad misses him dearly. Doesn’t help that Collins flopped with his chance at extended play and Zeby is at best a well below replacement level player.

TBF, Reylo has been nails in the pen. Doesn’t have it tonight tho.

Lol he’s fine. Just had to do his show first.

OMG I broke my foot! -Yoan

Probably cause Eloy is going to be in LF 2 of the 3 Cubs games, and they want Vaughn in RF those games. So getting him reps.

Who are some of the names you expect the Sox to protect?

PUT YESTERDAY IN THE REARVIEW MIRRIOR

Gotcha, just previous to that you were saying Kimbrel wouldn’t return anything of note without eating $. Which is comical considering what he just returned 5 days ago.

So Kimbrels value has cratered in 5 days in your estimation?

Yeah this one had that look early on. I couldn’t bring myself to look away tho.

Lol, it’s been like 5 games. Eloy is a DH. He’s also a great hitter. He’ll figure it out.

I don't think anyone is hating on Goodwin when they say he's a poor defender. That is just the facts.

Goodwin is awful everywhere in the OF, but purely from the eye test, I think he's a better CF than RF. Of course, he's still an awful CF. But looks more comfortable there.

Easy decision. Once in a lifetime deal. Congrats!

Lets win again. Last night was fun! Guess at lineup: Anderson SS, Hernandez 2B, Abreu 1B, Sheets DH, Moncada 3B, Vaughn LF, Goodwin RF, Leury CF, Collins C Eloy gets the rest and is back in there tomorrow.

I mean, he's 4 weeks into a 4-6 week timeline. I wouldn't expect TLR to say much of anything, but he's no longer ahead of schedule. In fact, he'll be behind schedule if he doesn't go out for a rehab assignment this week.

One of those "insiders" went as far as to say he wonders if those stories will start to leak now...insinuating he knew what they were.

Glad to see Eloy back in there. Let's strive mightily to not get hurt.

Where did you see this?
