Bob Sacamano

I guess they could just play him at 1B and not shift guys around, even if it is a lefty on the mound ha

Montgomery Burns!

Acuna helps the infield depth. Though I will say, if you're pulling him half way through a game and playing Meidroth at SS the second half of the game, you don't really need to do this. Hopefully they can find a right handing hitting IF that can play 3B so they don't have to keep shifting guys around.

Pereira is in CF tonight

Did they also get Venable?

Don't worry, Derek we'll get you a ring!

So Pereira is getting activated?

Someone pointed out yesterday that the Braves have a day off during a Midwest visit when the Sox are home and have a day off.

I brought this up the other day, but can we get another Field of Dreams game or series?

Sorry lol

Yoan must have had an owie that day to only DH. Ha, found it: https://x.com/JRFegan/status/1420768334308577282?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw%7Ctwcamp%5Etweetembed%7Ctwterm%5E1420768334308577282%7Ctwgr%5E87760f1d07140815ec0931c2e393171a6ea592b7%7Ctwcon%5Es1_&ref_url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.soxtalk.com%2Fforums%2Findex.php%3Fapp%3Dcoremodule%3Dsystemcontroller%3Dembedurl%3Dhttps%3A%2F%2Ftwitter.com%2FJRFegan%2Fstatus%2F1420768334308577282%3Fs%3D19 Game Thread: https://www.soxtalk.com/forums/topic/111351-72921-white-sox-royals-110/

He played a game there right? I think they were short on players (injuries?) or something. And then I think we traded for Cesar Hernandez.

Realistically, where is this guy's position long-term (if he sticks)? I remember him not being that great at really spot in the infield. Is it in the mix at 1B since, beyond next year, there isn't really anyone else, barring a Mune extension?

Also, no one cares nor is keeping score of times right and times wrong. Except Cali I guess. Whatever helps him get off.

The game is in like 7 hours lol

It isn't yet. But there does seem like there is more talent coming up from the minors than last time, with more to come. The last rebuild everyone got here and there was no one else coming.

Hey man. Just enjoy the ride of this season. It's a lot more fun and actually watchable unlike the last 3 years. Edit: actually, longer

I think the poster means for next year. And for the record, those are only 10 names plus 2 catchers not listed. There would technically be one more spot which I guess would be Benintendi.

That pitching is still a little scary. The back end part and having to rely on unproven guys anyway.

Yeah I feel that. I prefer the weekday afternoon games because my near 2-year old and 6-month are out of the house lol I don't watch as much at night or weekends. I try to watch the quick recaps on MLBTV every morning of the previous game though. Of course, I'm working during those games but usually can carve out time to watch a game. Just front load my work day.

Really is a shame that he got injured and is getting buried. But maybe he can carve out a nice career as a 26th man/utility player spot playing both IF and OF.

I believe. The boys have been playing great baseball and the division and AL overall are meh. We can do this even if the pitching regresses a bit.

Yeah it feels different. Games it feels like they’re going to lose when they are losing early, they win. Not flat, dead in the water like what seems like the last 15+ years of Sox baseball from the mired in mediocrity years, to the rebuild, to the very small competence window that brought, and rebuild 2.0. It’s a fun season and breath of fresh air, even if the pitching doesn’t hold up. Exciting times.

What you mean? Luisangel is in there!

Wrong opponent
