What an eye :)

What did Abreu do (or not do) now?

 

Does he still have negative overall statistical value with this recent "hot streak"?

Tim Anderson: Walk/OBP Machine

 

Nice to see him trending back into the low 700's for OPS. 750 might be a realistic expectation if he can just up his walk total to 5% or so, hopefully 7.5% but that might be dreaming for now.

C'mon Hawk...complain about a KC special now...

Wow. Nice going!

Holy cow Eaton!

Yes still neg fWAR

Woohoo! 0-2 pitch Grand Slam!

So did the Sox bullpen sneak over to Cleveland?

From awkward swing to swing of champions! Way to go, Adam Eaton!!

Well, at least Eaton, Q and Sale give you three huge assets to choose from in making an offseason trade...

Yeah, seriously. I hate this "trade away our best players" talk. Q, Sale and Eaton are why I watch games honestly.

Anyone else see the bubble that Eaton was blowing as he hit the homerun?

Oh Robertson.

Allen has allowed four or more runs in an outing three times in his career. Two of those were against us.

 

Also, 29.1 IP with 16 ERs overall against us. Don't think we're a group he looks forward to.

I missed the leadoff walk. Was it a full count fastball?

Yes. Low and outside.

Just rewound it. That's same pitch he's walked almost everyone on this year

Heck of a win

Good comeback. Allen was horrible.

Glad to see Anderson draw another walk. As well as rip a home run. He's drawing walks once in a while now which is nice.

They've been trying that.

Not trying. They're doing that. Look beyond the record the last two years. Trades junk for shark to get an extra first rounder. Traded junk for Frazier. Found out Saladino is a baller. Young pitching is developing nicely. Might have our new CFer in Tilson. Anderson is awesome. Young guys doing great in the minors- more legit prospects than ever. Meanwhile we've been competitive. I'm still behind the FO. We've got huge trade chips in Melky & Frazier next year. The Sox are looking good moving forward if they stay the course.
