June 30, 20196 yr I don’t think Cease has been struggling. His numbers in a hitter’s paradise with a juiced ball are not bad at all, and the defense behind him has been abysmal.

How old is Tatis? Glad to see most in this thread are in favor of bringing him up. I can't wait for baseball to change its mindset to that of the NBA and start playing guys at 19 years old. This system of wasting 4-6 years in the minors makes no sense. Edited June 30, 20196 yr by greg775

Anybody think 20 year old Tatis Jr would starting for the parent club had he been kept ? LOL. Please. Edited June 30, 20196 yr by GradMc

Either way he's been extremely unlucky at AAA. He's ready, and the Sox have thought he was ready since March. Yikes.

July 1, 20196 yr Since we have a day night double header Wednesday, should we expect a normal lineup for Thursday's day game? I'm debating if I should take the young children to the park.

They both have money already, they're more likely to test FA. Bring everyone up ASAP. I honestly wouldn't complain one bit if they brought up Madrigal and Robert tomorrow, because they're both advanced enough that they won't learn anything in the minors. Give them an entire offseason to make adjustments to MLB pitching and let's fucking go in 2020.

I was debating going Thursday or Wednesday game two. They love Moncada and Eloy so I want to take them to a game they will play in. My apologies for not making that clear.
