We need something like the movie Sixth Man where Eloys hitting ability can transfer in to Luis.

Maybe that's what's happening with Mercedes right now?

Seriously. At this point, I want Madrigal to start roiding up.

Appealed.

Glass half full: offense is doing OK without the big boys.  

Smh another shitty AB

Contreras was the asshole involved

The overlooked aspect of Robert’s decline last year wasn’t just due to chasing bad pitches, it’s that he couldn’t hit fastballs either.

Exactly. Jose, Luis, YoYo, Vaughn (and to a lesser extent Nick and Leury) will all wake up eventually. If Yermin, Collins, Grandal, Eaton carry the offense for a week or 2 that's fine by me as long as we are getting W's.

Jinxed it

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.

I'm a serious fan and I love Benetti. I do not miss temper tantrum's and Stone being force to do play by play because Hawk refuses to talk.

ah, little roller gets through, great job @fathom

What is up with Gio shaking his arm so much between pitches? Has he always done that?
