Zach has looked comfortable at the plate and has been putting the ball in play.

TLR is a genius LOL!

Well, I typo'd:

Hit would belong to pitcher that started the at bat, walk belongs to pitcher finishing the at bat.

I assume the strikeout would belong to the starting pitcher.

aahhhh that makes sense

I thought it was reversed. Walk to the first pitcher, hit to the guy that gave up the hit

Too bad we can't play Collins and Mercedes more often

He's made zero effort to learn baseball and talk baseball.  He's unlistenable for a serious fan, of which I'd assume most of this board is.  Maybe casuals love him but man he makes me miss Hawk, senile old Hawk at least had real passion for the Sox.

You’re in an overwhelming minority here

@Soxfest - is Collins still a garbage hitter?

Collins and Mercedes continue to have the best at bats on the team

Which is why Zach got the start.  TLR is many things, some not so savory, but he knows baseball man.

I don’t remember Leury sucking this much the past few years, have I been blind. 

This guy is throwing 90 down the heart of the plate. We need to crush him.

Hes definitely been worse so far.

Madrigal just isn't fast.

Madrigal is not good... What a waste of a high pick.

Leury and Nick continue to be a black hole at the bottom of the order.

That's fine, I'm not here for popularity I'm here to enjoy good baseball and good baseball talk.  The latter ain't Jason.  If you want cornball jokes, obvious puns and embarrassing deference to Stone, hey, more power to you.

His career numbers vs RHP are brutal. He's going to look overexposed playing every day against too many righties.

madrigal sucks.  NEVER DRAFT FOR SUPPOSED NEED.  FFS.  Imagine Kelenic on this squad.

Yeah hes not really as advertised minus contact.

Agreed.

So is this going to be another season in which the Sox backup catcher outproduces Grandal? Lol

Collins and Mercedes have replaced Eloy's bat this week. Hopefully we get more weeks from them. 

They are arguably the two most dangerous hitters in the lineup at the moment.

Jerry won't draft high schoolers that high apparently. Such a joke.

Happy to eat crow on Collins starting today. Nice poke!!!

Grandal has to be up there after last nights game as well.
