QUOTE (OmarComing25 @ Jul 22, 2017 -> 09:25 PM) Has Moncada swung at a single pitch outside the strike zone in his three games? Crazy that he strikes out so much even though he never chases. From the few AAA games I watched, the umpires kinda sucked. He got a lot of bad calls

QUOTE (fathom @ Jul 22, 2017 -> 09:19 PM) This might be the worst bullpen in Sox history once Swarzak is traded Late 2007 may be worse

QUOTE (fathom @ Jul 22, 2017 -> 09:16 PM) Nope, only way to advance on bases is via the bunt Forgive me, I forgot this was TEAM baseball. No selfishness- stolen bases, home runs, walks, etc. allowed.

Surprised there was no steal attempt

Yoan with that 80 grade patience

QUOTE (greg775 @ Jul 22, 2017 -> 08:37 PM) I feel badly for any one of our pitchers, who are putting their health on the line when they take the mound. Did you see how hard hit those homers were? A ball hit that hard can do some real damage. I'd recommend a majority of our pitchers wearing some sort of hockey helmet in the future.

QUOTE (Dick Allen @ Jul 22, 2017 -> 08:32 PM) Might be time for Ricky to go back to the mound. So that he can order Holmberg to bunt?

I thought Holmberg was actually decent...

Yoan Buntcada

yikes

I guess it doesn't hurt for Yolmer to get 3B reps, but I'd much rather see him at SS and Saladino at 3B instead of the other way around.

QUOTE (SoxAce @ Jul 22, 2017 -> 05:47 PM) First game I'll get to watch Moncada in the bigs. Excited. Too bad he'll be hitting right-handed lol

James Fegan‏ @JRFegan Tim Anderson was upfront about his struggles again, said it's been his most difficult year but "my best years are yet to come"

Saladino SS Cabrera LF Abreu 1B Garcia RF Davidson DH Moncada 2B Sanchez 3B Smith C Engel CF James Fegan‏ @JRFegan Moncada hitting sixth again. Renteria sees him as a potential middle of the order guy in the future

FWIW, he's not starting tonight

Yoan Moncada

QUOTE (elrockinMT @ Jul 21, 2017 -> 09:50 PM) I am guessing that when Leury is ready to come back we will see Engel sent down to Charlotte That's how it should be. Then Delmonico or Willy can come up for Melky

QUOTE (StrykerSox @ Jul 21, 2017 -> 09:48 PM) He's 6-21 with a double and a walk. It's not that exceptional and it doesn't negate the pre-ASB lousiness. I meant it more as he is hitting the ball better. And I know it doesn't negate anything, but my point is that he's at least trending upward a bit

Melky and Hosmer sharing that hug was a truly beautiful moment.

Anderson is hitting well since the ASB. Just needs to cut down on mental mistakes. He'll be fine

QUOTE (fathom @ Jul 21, 2017 -> 09:13 PM) Tatis Jr might have a better arm than Shields now Looking like Moncada will lead off the next inning with his team trailing

QUOTE (chitownsportsfan @ Jul 21, 2017 -> 09:10 PM) Lopez done, 6 innings, 1 ER, 6K, 1BB, 2H, time for him to take somebody's place in the rotation he's ready to start getting his feet wet in MLB. Agreed. I also think Giolito or Fulmer might as well come up too to work with Cooper and try to get some MLB burn.

Very rare to see Cain flat out miss like that

This puts him atop MLB leaders- tied with Hamilton and Buxton for fastest in baseball.
