Sox brass has not proven they can effectively bring in premier free agents to support their core roster.  Until we see that financial commitment to go with strong scouting, there absolutely should be questions about this team’s ability to compete. I think the Twins have a chance to be a real pain in the ass again for the next few seasons.

I tend to believe premier players are best acquired through developing prospect and trades.  Free agents would be best used to plug holes with competent major league tested players but not necessarily the high priced ones.  Every team as at least some restrictions on spending and we certainly do.  Seems to me the best way to maximize your talent pool with somewhat limited resources.

This guy is going to dominate the Sox today, isn't he?  Mercy.

With ABs like that, likely.

Abreu’s bat is really dragging

Yep, Jermaine Dye was one of the best ever FA acquisitions in Chicago sports.

So Eloy can handle batting 6th but not 5th. I am getting closer to have heard everything .

How about letting Yonder clear his head after his one start this week?

Why is that slider seemingly so deceptive?

Where was the head clearing the first 55 games.

Sox hitters are taking far too many fastballs for strikes.  

Rondon! Designatedly hitting!
