hate to say it but that looks like a possible achilles mechanism.

Not at all. It was a result of contact with the ground and twisting the wrong way 

Tim Anderson down for a long period. Damn time to extend the rebuild by another 5 years.

Who got hurt?

Anderson

Can‘t wait for the usual meatballs to blame the training staff for that injury.

They might not be trying to lose but apparently they don't care either way. Otherwise they'd be doing everything in their power to fix the starting staff. Seems they are content with riding the bad to another top 5 draft pick. 

I don't expect them to make stupid moves at this point but it really looks like they could care less, and that is not good, we still have to be and play respectable.

I have.  The mariners have more errors and are on pace to set a MLB record for runs allowed. 

AND THEY HAD THE CATCHER VACATE HOME PLATE AND THREW TO AN EMPTY HOME!

Get back to me when our boys manage that.  If you want to use hyperbole fine, just expect to be called out on it.

That catcher was a ex Sox wasn't he if you can't see the garbage day in and day out this team plays then that's on you.

Just shocked to come back 45 minutes later to see the back of the bullpen up to its normal tricks...

Of course! The Sox can't have nice things!  Cursed franchise it seems here lately!

This series basically comes down to the fact that one team knows how to win while the other doesn’t!  If the Red Sox stay within a few runs, they’ll somehow figure out a way to win.

Guys, compare the two rosters for gosh sakes. When we play Boston and New York it's a miracle we grab a win once in a while. We have no business beating those teams in their own parks.

He wouldn't have been carried off for a simple sprain.

Spraining your ankle hurts like hell. I wouldn’t rule it out. 

Guys that have a 6 era or a .200 batting average  should be replaced

If Tim Anderson has some serious injury (does he? I'm not watching the game), then it really all appears hopeless. He's a fine young ballplayer. Losing him at a prime spot in the batting order and in the field would be really depressing.

Real nice swing by Eloy. Umpire continues to suck and Ricky doesn’t do shit

Well we sign those guys to be starters here. 

I once tried hard to lobby to get Kevin Newman.

Yolmer is sick. I would expect an infielder.

I also just realized they only have 3 SP lol so it would be a SP before an RP.

You did? How'd that work out for you?

So I guess we get Leury at SS?   I guess that can show off his positional flexibility to play the position capably for 7-10 days.

Hope they don’t try to use Rondon there...of course, this probably means more Adam Engel in CF, haha.  Or Alcides Escobar.

Yep, they're putting up negative WAR....doesn't that mean they need to be replaced?

We don't use those statistics from nerds on this ball club

Not so well, but I bet we could have gotten Jim for cheaper when I wanted him Now he is hitting .312 in the Bugs. Here is another tip. Get Pavin Smith from the D Backs.

For a long time, Jimenez was in negative territory.   Of course, he got the biggest contract in team history.

He probably will turn out to be a lot like Carlos Lee...with more homers.  A really really nice player to have, but not a superstar in the modern game where you need to be able to run and throw or hit like JD Martinez.

That’s even MORE bad luck considering how they ended up after getting outed as frauds.

It's bad.  They  carted him to the medical evaluation.
