Gotta love a bee delay followed by an injured umpire delay 

All Avi does is hit bombs

All Palka does is hit bombs 

All Delmonico does is hit bombs

Nicky with... DA POWER?!?!?!

Damn

Reminds me of those Reds games from early July

Only five hits for the Sox haha. Trophyano.

So tired of Yolmer batting 2nd

You mean the possible closer now?  The bullpen is about to get incredibly ugly.

Nah, he won’t for long if he gets a chance.  Plus the players in the minors are better than the volstads and minayas in the majors.  I think turning it over and trading some of these guys is good.

yep, he's a utility player who's being forced to play every day and doesn't get on base enough to get so many at bats early in the count.  Obviously he's a great person, but I can't wait to have a legit 3rd baseman.

Hamilton coming up will help.

I hope they tear the band-aid off and let Hamilton close, but I can't see conservative Ricky doing that.  Who knows, maybe Bruce Levine will get named manager and Kopech will close.

Exactly. He's a fine player but he's being asked to do way more than what he's capable of. He should be playing no more than 4 times per week and never hitting any better than 7th in the order. 

And that's a wrap. 

Minaya is total garbage

THATS WHAT IM SAYIN

I swear Renteria is trying to lose these games!

yeah...hard to believe there's not anything better in Charlotte.  Dude needs to go...but he is good in terms of tankage.

Ricky caught sleeping there leaving Minaya in for so long.  Hopefully he's still managing him for the Long Island Ducks in two years.

Geeze

I can't get mad at Minaya.  He's doing his best.

Jace Fry, however, is not total garbage

On a team with a bunch of superstars and/or Hall of Famers, Benetti's infatuation with Fletcher has been ridiculous.

Would much rather have seen delmonico against the lefty.

Terrible at bat by Anderson.  Has no idea what is/isn't a strike right now.
