Nova is trash.  But some posters think he was worth $9 million cuz of a split with the Cubs.

The worst of the worst — the true meatball Sox fans.  Embarrassing.

What the fuck are we doing with Collins? He's been up for almost a month and played in eight games. Are you fucking shitting me? Fiers isn't even a lefty! They're gonna fuck this up, and Ricky the Asshole will be directly responsible. Along with batting Jon Jay before Eloy. Fucking idiotic.

It's simple, they don't want to play both catchers at the same time.  

Reed is a BIG dude.

Yes! Let's play the 26 year old failed prospect who hit .224 in AAA rather than our first round pick from three years ago! This is fucking brilliant! I can't understand why we haven't gone to the playoffs in a decade!

Reed got out.. must be a bust  

nice catch eloy

Well that's ironic criticizing someone for a low batting average in AAA and then asking for Collins.  Meanwhile, great catch by Eloy

If something happens to McCann, move Collins there from DH. And if he gets hurt, just let Timmy catch!

In all seriousness, he should be in the lineup every day. I don't know about him catching long term, but his bat could be special if we let it develop. Of course, we're going to not develop him as a catcher nor as a hitter.

Eloy showing that gold glove caliber D.

Nice sliding catch Eloy!

Reed IS a bust. You can't tell a sarcastic joke about something that is 100% true.

That hanger went a loooong way.

That ball was murdered.  On the bright side, only like 15 more starts we have to watch with Nova.

That was a no doubt about it homer.

yikes.

Collins has potential. Reed doesn't. He also walks more, and BA aside, his numbers at the plate in AAA were significantly better than Reed's. I don't know why this is controversial.

God Nova blows

Ivan Nova is a straight beast. No problem with the pitching on this team. They’ll be alright. Hahn for gm of the year.

Gas can Nova

Yeah, GREAT decision to have him pitch on regular rest.  Oh well, probably better they lose games the rest of the month so they don't make any dumb trades before the deadline.

Well fuck. Do y'all think Amazon will drone deliver a paper bag with eye holes cut out to the stadium?

I don't care about Nova. He's crap; we knew he was crap. I care about Hahn being an idiot with our prospects. Why would we trust him to properly develop any player?
