It's kinda fun watching Robert bat after Moncada at Charlotte. Moncada just doubled and Robert got a 4 pitch walk . Durham probably sick of him by now as he has destroyed them the last 2 games.

ANd then Palka homers them both home (his 26th).

Terrible pitch selection, as we keep speeding up his bat

Bad time for a HR, especially after getting to 2 outs without the run scoring.  Ouch.

Every game Lopez serves a few fat ones he cannot help it. 

Yep! Of course!

Well yeah, his breaking pitches suck now

Score runs. Give up runs!

Max Kepler adding on to his European born player HR record.

Yea i doubt it too. If you know anything about me you know I want them all up to get acclimated including Robert and Madrigal . But right now they all just don't fit on the 25 man roster and they aren't just going to release Jay and Castillo even if they should.

They really should.  Why won’t they?

There are no more waiver trades anymore so there is no justification for keeping them on the roster and playing them.

It’s no surprise that the only starting pitcher the Sox have that has performed well this year is the one who can throw fastballs up in the zone for strikes.

Damn you'd almost think this was baseball or something.

Kepler might as well be Mike Trout when facing the Sox!

It's just them being who they are. Why expect anything different ? September comes soon enough and we'll see who is called up or if any one is released.

He's the new Ryan Raburn. 

Time for the John Jay era to end!  I’d rather see Charlie Tilson.  At least he adds speed to the lineup!

Lopez got boom-sticked .

Great pitch call and execution there.  Nothing like a rolling breaking pitch over the heart of the plate.   This playing baseball by the gut thing is amazing.

 

I hate the Twins

Nelson Cruz still owns the Sox.  Why did we end up with the awful roider in Castillo instead of the good one in Cruz?

Benetti talking about Nelson Cruz beating the aging process again.  ?

Cooper doing a bang up job fixing Lopez.

KW and Hahn were sure that the friends and family plan was landing machado.   Meanwhile the twins picked up something better than both Jay and Alonzo.

Be careful, Cooper will get pissed you’re criticizing him.  Maybe Coop should spend less time on twitter and more time refining Lopez breaking pitches.

Tall and fall and lots of cutters will fix this.

Cooper can only do so much.
