Ruiz getting the bottom of the inning.

it's okay to say this is the best team in the American League now...

Perhaps Mendick. 

9 runs for the Sox in each of the past 3 games and we have 3 homers during that.

If the Sox put Eloy in LF after both he and Robert are coming off serious injuries then they don't deserve to win anything. It might be the most stupid thing in baseball in the last 20 years. 

I doubt they give up on Eloy in LF yet. He has so much more value there. It was a freak injury. I think it will be a wakeup call for Eloy. 

Ugh, just stop Benetti

Kyle Garlick is a terrible outfielder. He almost took out Kepler.

Hard to believe but this Twins bullpen is absolutely as awful as advertised. 

Yea they are awful. I don't see them being a threat to the Central title. Right now it looks like the Indians and Sox.

Stupider than giving up after being down 3-0 in the 2nd inning?  Kidding buddy, we’ve all been there 

Not quite like Jack though

The Indians with their 1 offensive player? ?

He’s done in LF, especially with how well Vaughn is playing

When teams are going good, they can win via station to station or long ball. As long as they can play solid vs. RHP, they will continue to play well. They may not beat every LHP, but they are heavy favorites each game, including Happ tomorrow.

Alcala was one of their better arms numbers wise and he gave up the lead today. Colome's been bad, but he's also gotten screwed by the defense a few times.

I was just going to write I was surprised Bennetti hadn’t pulled out a vampire joke...and he beat me to it.

I want to find a spot for Hamilton on the playoff roster but don't see that happening. Oh yeah is it too early to think playoff rosters?

He looked serviceable in RF, doesn’t have the arm, but he was fine there in the minors. One of the few players I remember who couldn’t make the switch from right to left

Crochet in line for first career win

He deserves it after getting a couple of Ls thanks to Manfred-Ball

He’s just so clumsy. Heck people thought he was a good outfielder because his wild catch in Futures Game, but in reality it was a sign of things to come.

Enjoy this laugher against the Twins ffs

Yeah, those Manfred losses really should go as 'Team' losses, like team rebounds in hoops.

Oh shit Ruiz just aced Cruz

Is Ruiz the best righty in this pen?

I remember Eloy made a crazy play in the futures game where he basically robbed a foul ball while almost destroying his pec muscles. He's definitely better going to his left than his right.
