Why are they Rays moving to Montreal?

Boy beats me maybe it's because they don't draw for dick thus the city won't give them a new stadium. This stadium is a complete dump

Montreal would be a part time gig. 

lol how the fuck does a mlb hitter get jammed on a 83 mph changeup middle in?

I think the team really wanted him to see how a good defensive catcher like McCann prepares from day to day in the MLB. I'm sure he learned quite a bit and is incorporating it into his preparation routine in the MiLB.

But how would DHing prevent him from doing that?

Is it bad when the ball boy warming Jay up in left has a better arm. Jay is one hoping every other throw .....

nice defense, ffs.

fuck yea james.  even if he only hits for a 730 OPS next year his catching is worth a starting gig.

Heeee  gooonnee

Ace Giolito is back. 

Lucas sitting at 93 or 94 with fastball.....velo down a bit from earlier in year

A good change low and away and he's finished 

fuck this stadium.

I have a theory that the Sox were still "in the race" when Collins was up, and they were trying to compete at the time.  He'll get more at bats when he returns due to the team being out of it.

Yoan had to go 50 yards for that

No. He loses a bit from the stretch. From the windup he's back to 94-96. 

I'm just sharing what the gun shows at the TROP

11 pretty much awful at bats so far.  Steverson must have put together a great game plan.

I'm not able to watch this game but am really happy for a good looking pitching line.

Abreu had 2 cookies in a row and missed both.

They keep trying to pull the changeup and leaving themselves vulnerable to the inside cutter.  Abreu's swing was soooo slow that at bat.

Decade after decade, coaching staff after coaching staff, the Sox continue to struggle with junkballing LHP and have no clue at the plate against them. It's getting incredibly old.

Yolmer with terrible range

Jesus christ Yolmer

Should have made that play Sanchez. 

This is a freaking circus.  McCann might be the worst catcher I've ever seen on pop ups.
