Just turned on the game...Wellington really is useless

Somehow Yolmer has a lower OPS than Welington.

Castillo and Alonso make the Mendoza Line look like an impossible dream.  Collins is only a phone call away and Jimenez will be back soon.  Hope RH is thinking along this line.

Delmonico misplayed that terribly.  Really shouldn't be so hard to find someone to competently play LF.

Bieber is a really good pitcher though, getting shut down by him is nothing to be upset over

Sox have been scoring late this year...this ain't over yet

Agreed, he has great command.  Sox had their chances the first two innings.

Bad pitches, but god this defense has no range

This lineup makes me legitimately angry 

So when Eloy comes back, anyone opposed to Alonso being cut and Delmonico sharing 1B/DH duties with Abreu? Also while letting Eloy get some DH at bats?

Except not taking walks he is giving us

Much nicer play by Yolmer

Cut Alonso and Castillo and call up Collins. That's what I'd do.

Why are we trying so hard to get Delmonico at bats?  Rather see Collins split time with Abreu.

That play from Yolmer just bought him 60 more starts if Rick “Grinderball” Renteria has anything to say about it

Hey that's fine too. Unless they still want him catching semi-regularly.

 

Edit: looking at minor league games by position, yeah that would be the case.

Reynaldo despite not having his best stuff is also getting singled to death. Indians don‘t have any XBHs. 

I’ll give anyone starts to get rid of Sanchez, Alonso, and Castillo 

I would be up for playing Palka at 2nd if that’s what it took

More awful defensive fundamentals.  Abreu's lucky Castillo caught that.

I have seen enough of Ped boy

wow, still in the game

My fucking God why bunt there

I love Yolmer bunting there. He makes outs really really well

And thay is why Anderson and Charlie should be hitting in the top half of the lineup, not effing Yonder Alonso and Welington Castillo.

Base hit here ties it. 

Great call to bunt there
