How many times has it appeared that Yonder has crushed the ball only for it to be a 370 foot out?

i still maintain there is something detrimental to the way that ballpark faces and left handed power hitters that pull 

I think it's more of a there's been a problem with the left handed "power" hitters the Sox have brought in.  Moncada doesn't seem to have much of a problem pulling it out to RF.

That being said, the Sox decision to not sign either Harper or Machado looks pretty wise at this point. 

 Harper: .232/.449/.807 111 wRC+

Machado: .266/.439/.788 110 wRC+

Is that worth $300M? 

 For reference:

 Moncada: .278/.478/.811 117 wRC+

Abreu: .255/.505/.812 112 wRC+

But 111 is better than what we've gotten from RF, and 110 is better than what we've gotten from Yolmer. Plus Machado is a defense-first player whose defense has been elite. I still believe he outperforms that AAV.

he's going to get rocked if he's pitching with one pitch.  we've seen this over and over and over.

It's so frustrating. Especially after watching a Gio start. He has no idea where the ball is going.
