Jose Abreu

QUOTE (2005thxfrthmmrs @ Jun 10, 2016 -> 11:36 PM) Please. What's this? 2005 and we're still looking at batting average to tell how productive a player is? And while Engel might not hit much, he's at least a plus runner and fielder, and fwiw hit really well the last month or so. I'd give him a shot to see how he handles split playing time with Avi, there is no harm in that compared to the replacement level value we've been getting from Ajax. I think that calling him up straight from AA, where his recent hot streak still gives him horrendous overall numbers, would not be wise.

QUOTE (Jerksticks @ Jun 10, 2016 -> 10:30 PM) But can he pick it and hit .220? Maybe .220 is definitely much worse than Austin Jackson (regarding the OP)

Jose Abreu

Timothy Anderson

And relief pitching!!

Jim Joyce... oh the memories

QUOTE (BamaDoc @ Jun 10, 2016 -> 10:03 PM) i am on game day. Missed hit and run or straight steal? straight steal

Garcia is a stunning 51% career base stealer. Great call to have him go there!!!

QUOTE (chw42 @ Jun 10, 2016 -> 10:01 PM) Anderson will get a 4th AB. sike

QUOTE (CB2.0 @ Jun 10, 2016 -> 10:00 PM) Holy s***. Avi got a hit. He has hit the ball well today

Benetti: "Sox fans, you are not going to want to miss this one! (I am told to read off this paper)"

QUOTE (kitekrazy @ Jun 10, 2016 -> 09:55 PM) Jone so needs to work on his delivery. He doesn't hide the ball. He can't throw hard enough for a player to miss it. what?

Good work from Jones

QUOTE (ptatc @ Jun 10, 2016 -> 09:53 PM) Others were saying to fire RV if he even considered that. I'm saying if he is hitting well, I don't mean right now

QUOTE (Scoots @ Jun 10, 2016 -> 09:53 PM) Idk I like Todd at 3rd...can Saladino play 1st? I believe he can, actually. And that would also allow Abreu to DH

Nice play by Abreu and Lawrie

Anyone else agree that we should try a lineup like this? Eaton Abreu (DH) Frazier (1B) Cabrera Lawrie Garcia Catcher Anderson (SS) Saldino (3B) Maybe even consider Anderson 2nd if he hits well, and shift anyone else down. I think Saladino back at 3B like in 2015 could work out, and that way you let Abreu DH. You also give Frazier a break from 3B, as he is also a decent 1B

QUOTE (Condor13 @ Jun 10, 2016 -> 09:46 PM) If Abreu slides hid is safe easy the ball beat him

QUOTE (greg775 @ Jun 10, 2016 -> 09:45 PM) It was a no brainer to let Sale try to go 7. With the Sox bullpen??? But you don't keep him in after he looks gassed and allows a leadoff single

QUOTE (fathom @ Jun 10, 2016 -> 09:44 PM) He was mediocre tonight Sale lost sight of what made him so great in April. He changed his style back to his 2015 ways

Does Abreu not slide...?

QUOTE (Jose Paniagua @ Jun 10, 2016 -> 09:41 PM) So glad to have New Abreu You mean Old Abreu?

Nice work Putnam

Good pickoff, nearly got him

We're cursed against KC... can't hold a lead
