This one surprises me.

Dislike.

Is this because he stopped doing the dancing for dubs?

Definitely.

Sox wanted another arm for the bullpen; imagine they'll be sending Ruiz back but down soon and Mendick will be back up but who knows

Mendick still has options so I suppose this makes sense when adding another arm.  Can't say I love it though.

Unless there is an injury, Mendick can't come back for 10 days.

They must really expect to need that extra arm rolling out the likes of Lopez in meaningful games...

My god why on earth do we send Mendick down before Yolmer.. I wanted the Yolmer signing a month ago for depth.. Now, it is getting out of hand

My guess?  options.  If Yolmer is out of options they could lose him.  Mendick obviously has at least one option left because they just used it.  This way they keep both instead of maybe one of them.

Mendick has options, Yolmer doesn't.  RR can't risk letting go of his precious.

If we send Ruiz down and Collins up in the next few days I am good with this.

Because this team started winning when yolmer came back

This is some major bullshit and has Ricky’s fingerprints all over it, all of because his love for his special little Yolmey.  
 

Granted Yolmer has some surprisingly nice hits for a change but his fully displayed that his arm is too weak for 3b.  And it’s absolutely too weak to play SS.  So now we have our main backup infielder who plays inferior defense at all positions to the guy they just sent down.  
 

All because he tickles Ricky and makes him laugh.  I’m surprised Hahn and Kenny go along with this shit.  

Is it Yolmer and Dyson doing the Dancin for Dubs now?  Asking for a friend.

IL Moncada and bring Mendick back right away?

13-11 pre yolmer

19-6 post yolmer signing 

Yolmer is the real mvp of this team

edit...now 20-6 with yolmer.  Clearly the right move was sending mendick down.  You can all start apologizing now.

The bullpen could get taxed with striever pitching today, Keuchel coming back from an injury and tbd on Sunday. They thought they needed an extra arm. That said Mendick has been a good solid  player in a role hopefully he has the next 5 years. I hope it’s nothing more than that. He is a nice player.

I’m surprised Hahn & Kenny let Ricky make personnel decisions at all.  Thought he was the manager
