I still don't understand why Tilson isn't in. Is he that bad against lefties? Honest question I haven't looked at his numbers.

He should have been in tonight and bunting all night against Lester

I’m just being realistic.  Sox aren’t getting the top guys.  He’s the best RF available and I think the Sox could actually sign him.

1.  No you’re not, you’re just being your usual Negative Nancy self.

2.  Only a Sith speaks in absolutes.

3. Ozuna is a significantly better player than Puig and capable of playing RF.  I’d take Castellanos over him as well.

4. Anyone can fucking sign a guy who currently has negative fWAR and hasn’t had a 3 win season since 2014.  The Sox fan so much better when they’ll be sitting a good $80M to $90M to work with.

Round is a shape ?‍♂️

Perk up.  It's not like a 3 run deficit can't be overcome.

Because Alonzo can hit a three run homer and Tilson most likely not.

Although Alonzo sucks

Still in this thing guys

He would've been more of a threat than Cordell whose numbers continue to fall.

He sucks...hopefully he's DFA after the game

Maybe dreams will come true.  ?

Ozuna probably can't play RF with his shoulder issues

how much have they wasted on him and the Machado package?

Only thing I can think of is they wanted a longer look at Cordell since he will be going down with Jay.

It's crazy considering how by the book Ricky is with managing. If that's the case, put the RH hitting Rondon in. He has power.

It’s not being a negative Nancy when history has proven me right.  Ozuna is a pipe dream and Puig is realistic IMO.

So just for fun (and since this is an active thread), what are the odds that Sox starting pitching this weekend can have an ERA lower than 9.00?

Sign Corey Dickerson and Castellanos and our lineup would be a force to be reckoned with,

One thing is for sure...we have a lot of nice arms in the bullpen.

Dont disagree. They are both bad, alonzo and Rondon

good call, and if they bring in a righty, then you give Collins a chance

Tilson has a .397 OPS against LHP this year. Alonso has a .946 OPS against LHP (not typical of his career to say the least)

$13 million ($9M for Alonso and $4M for Jay).

Was just going to say the same thing. Jay is on the 60-day, so someone is going to have to be DFA. Not sure there's anyone they can transfer for that long of a period. Maybe Burr?
