Great move

Hahn will fleece the Cubs again. I think he has their number.

Cle and Det have not gotten any better so far. Cle has actually gotten worse for this season unless they make a move tomorrow.

As I posted last week, the AL East front runners will beat up on each other and make the race for best record us vs Astros.

Well in fairness the lineup had Moncada and no one else who would have been penciled in as a starter to begin the season.

Maybe Hahn is trying to add Benintendi to the fold. Could Burger and Benintendi be a match with some other pieces??

Eloy was the hero but credit also goes to Leury for starting the rally when the offense seemed dead.

Leury did

Sorry, I am not giving up Robert ...................................

A new poster, who contributes trash , should have his computer time restricted by his parents.

I agree. Last night's broadcast seemed to indicate he would be back in LF. Not sure who their source was whether FO or coaching staff.

Maybe it is me, but Vaughn has really been solid w the bat recently. I hate to see him move out of LF. When a young player is on a roll, don't upset their routine even if it is positional. Eloy can DH for a while to adjust to MLB pitching and I think AV at this point is at least equal( or plus) defensively to Eloy.

Agree with your thought process. I would add that if TLR pulled Kopech his choices were Liam start the 8th or take a chance w Crochet but he has to face 3 batters. I would have gone w Liam starting 8th to avoid Kopech batting but it appears they didn't trust Crochet.

Way too far away to make predictions. Rosters will be bolstered this week with trades and players will return from injuries like Robert, Eloy, Sale etc in the coming weeks. But players will also suffer season ending injuries over the next 2 months w/o the benefit of trades to replace them.

I would think only Jerry will evaluate the manager. Just my guess, but Jerry will keep LTR based on the team's success since I don't see this team collapsing down the stretch. Regardless of playoff performance, Jerry will want Tony if he wants to return.

I think Tampa, Boston and to a lesser degree NY and Toronto will beat up on each other over the next few months. Cruz and Sale will be solid additions so Sox do need to upgrade and we need Eloy and Robert to be major contributors. Hopefully Sox and Houston will have the easier path than Boston/Tampa to best record .

Should not be hitting back to back. Too much chance they can run into each other on the base paths................

Yermin had a $570,000 contract for 2021. With family obligations, I don't think it would be wise to just walk away unless he has an alternative to provide for his family.

I think Cease and Keuchel are pretty even. Both have struggled in July.

There is also the concern of who he could injure. Moncada and Anderson need to up their Personal Injury Protection. Maybe batting helmets for 3B, SS , and CF

Agree with fringe moves. As the Sox continue to win, Hahn will be less likely to make any major moves. I think 1-2 fill-in positional pieces and 1 bullpen piece may be it. Now if some team gets desperate and gives us a discount on a must-take or is very high on one of our players that Hahn isn't then maybe that changes things.

Agree but some of that has been because Leury has also been healthy which most of our players struggle to achieve.

But in Spring Training there are 20+ pitchers in camp all getting advice. At this point of the season, he may get more personalized help.

I agree that the AL Central is very weak, which hopefully does not weaken our edge come playoff time. . But I like our chances, once we get somewhat healthy , against Tampa or Boston. Tampa has good pitching and spotty offense and Boston has good offense and spotty pitching. I feel we have good pitching and we will have good hitting come playoff time. Houston may be the biggest problem but the rosters will have a good number of changes before the end of September.

Strange our first 2 batters in the game get hits and then none since then.
