It would be nice if Barlow had to throw 1 strike

Mieses 3-5 with 2 doubles. Josh Norris, are you listening?

HR for Robert.

TA pretty much swinging up to a foot outside these days.

That was certainly a stubborn choice by TLR

Charlotte faced Ian Anderson on a rehab assignment, so Robert/Mendick each going 1-1 with a walk is nice.

Cespedes HR. Another double for Mieses. Robert with a single so far.

Eloy has not hit well as a dh in a small sample size in his career. 0 hits so far this year. A lot of guys struggle with that transition, and an unhappy hitter may be an unproductive hitter. Once he is healthy, I hope he plays left field most of the time because we need his bat.

Another double for Hackenburg. Then he left the game. Misael Gonzalez has the other hit, plus a walk. Otherwise, it’s ugly.

The Cuban Nicky Madrigal?

You can see where Dylan might be a weapon in the pen in October.

I think it’s time they move Destino up. Another homer for him.

Whew! I was worried I might have to watch 1 game this year without Leury Garcia.

More Randel Mondesi goodness: 3/4, double, homer, strikeout. The dreaded "triple short of the cycle."

Here are some guys you could imagine the Sox could release: Burdi, Adolfo, Gonzalez, Rutherford, Lamb. Then after the season, they have a lot of free agents: Rodon, Lamb, Goodwin, Hamilton, Leury Garcia, Hernandez (option), Kimbrel (option). Adolfo is out of options, neither Rutherford nor Gonzalez are big impact players (solid chance you could slide them through). Lot of options moving forward.

Hamilton's mystery "injury" appeared for a reason. He's probably going to be miraculously healed September 1. Robert will take his spot, then it's a choice between Lamb and Sheets. I predict LaRussa chooses Lamb and sends Sheets down, but I've been surprised before.

Caleb Freeman made his AA debut: 2IP 0R 0 bb 4K

And he got a hit this time. Would be awesome if he can carry what he was doing at Kanny to the higher level.

Wow. That is rough for the Mets. I don't suppose Alex Bregman has a younger brother.

i believe Robert and Eloy both back on Tuesday. Cannot happen fast enough.

Every rally ends up with Leury hitting.

TA needs to rethink his approach to pitches 4 inches outside. Just because you can hit it doesn’t mean you should hit it.

I suddenly miss Bailey Horn

How many times has Cleveland scored 5 runs with no contribution from Jose Ramirez? Weird game tonight.

I hate that Kopech has to come in now with bullpen day tomorrow. Keuchel is a real problem.
