The ratings for this game have to be through the roof. Everyone on Twitter is talking about it

Why not? Replace Osich with whoever, replace Castillo with Collins, and replace Yolmer with Mendick. It's simple.

Osich, Castillo, and Yolmer should all be DFAed after this game.

Between the game and the broadcast, this is awful

Is there a noticeable change in Collins' swing from when he got sent down to now that would explain his success? Or is it pretty much the same swing and he's just on a hot streak?

This is when having Yermin Mercedes up would be great

This is going to be a looooooooooong series

August could be absolutely brutal in terms of who they're playing.

The Tatis Jr. for Shields trade is obviously worse, but yeah, I don't know why more people don't bring up the Samardzija deal. That was absolutely horrible for the Sox.

Nice job taking the bat out of Abreu's hands, Ricky.

I'll be watching those games in Anaheim on mute.

Castillo's framing is god awful

Am I the only one who doesn't want Robert hitting leadoff? He very well might end up being the best hitter on the team...maybe even better than Moncada and Eloy. If that's the case, I want him hitting 3rd so he can drive in the guys batting in front of him (Madrigal and Moncada) who will hopefully get on base a ton.

Madrigal 1, Moncada 2, Robert 3

It would be really nice to get that year of team control back if possible

2 RBI single for Madrigal just now

I mean they totally embarrassed themselves this past offseason, but I see what you're saying.

This is cool and all, but I don't get the correlation between playing in this game and the idea that the Sox will make a huge splash in free agency.

Have people forgotten who owns this team? If he's going to make his debut this season, it will be at home. Jerry can't miss out on those extra ticket and concession sales.

Not sure why Colome is pitching right now.

I've actually been kinda impressed with him. He has a good arm.

Shots fired.

Ron, did Jose Abreu sleep with your girlfriend?

They can bring up both Mercedes and Mendick while still keeping Goins. Have Yermin replace Reed at DH, Mendick replace Yolmer at 2B, and keep Goins at 3B until Moncada comes back. And DFA Castillo and replace him with Collins while we're at it.

I hate to say it, but is it possible that Abreu is actually a couple years older than he says he is? Because if that's the case, his sudden decline makes a lot more sense.
