Lol. Palka had the 43rd best OPS+ in the American League last year (those over 400 PA). I don't think this guy is the savior and I have no problem with him in AAA right now after his putrid start. But he could be a useful platoon piece as a DH and occasion OF, and he will be back at some point, likely whenever the Sox cut bait on Alonso. Apologies on Daniel banging your girlfriend.

Looks like this one is going to delay.

Was Moncada's error bad? I had to minimize my game feed for a bit and missed it.

How do you give Bauers a double there? I know Tilson slipped, but that is an error.

Also...lol at Tilson.

No

This game is now official. I expect it to be delayed here shortly and then called. Would have been so nice to get 3/4.

Timmy really reverting back to his old ways last couple weeks.

Couldn't agree more. Can always make him a full time DH later. I don't mind him DHing on occasion, but making him a full time DH at this age is stupid.

Thanks for clarifying. How much will the sox have left to spend after the Sanchez signing?

The Sox are fully out of the penalty box for this upcoming signing period, correct? And yet they're still not in on any top 30 talent? Why? Is the Yolbert Sanchez deal pretty much announced? Will his bonus count against 2019 or 2018?

I don't think there is any way the Sox allow him to get to 526 at bats in a Sox uni. He'll either be DFA'd or traded before that point. I would hope.

At least Dunn always took his walks. Even when he hit .159 that season in 500 PAs, his OBP was .292.

"Lonzy is a veteran. We just need to keep plugging him in out there. He's a clean up hitter. He's our clean up hitter. He's been having some great at bats lately. Seeing some pitches. Working some count. Real professional. We love Zo." -Ricky, most likely

He actually only needs to 526.

Great analysis. His OPS+ of 110 and WRC+ of 109 in over 415 at bats in 2018 suggests otherwise. He is a limited player, no doubt. But he could be a useful platoon bat in the big leagues.

Daniel Palka will almost certainly be back. OPSing .950 in AAA. OBP over .400. SSS, yes. But so was his awful stretch to start the season. I am not a Palka bobo by any means, but I'd way rather him get the DH at bats than Alonso.

When the site updated, the usernames reverted back to originals. I think you can now change it yourself in your account settings.

Sounds like he has a sore thumb.

Sox won't be offering Abreu a QO. The QO will be well in excess of what he'll get on an AAV basis.

I don't know, but I will shoot you an email when I find out!

What is wrong with Leury as a leadoff man? He's a better option than Anderson IMO. He's been great there.

Main issue I have with the lineup is continuing to blindly bat Alonso 4th. Move the dude down, FFS.

Remillard is not really a prospect is he? Just an org guy? Noticed they've bounced him all around the field this season.
