If we had 9 Yoans, we'd be good.

Been great to see him step up as Robert went down and Yermin hit a rough patch. He's been putting the team on his back.

However, I think his BABIP is the highest in all of baseball so it wouldn't be surprising to see him cool off a little. Hopefully others step up when/if that happens.

Always liked him as an option for the 3-spot (give us a left-handed bat in the middle), especially if Robert can stick in the 2-spot behind Anderson.

Baseball Reference has Moncada tied for 4th for position players with a 2.8 WAR.  Tied with Buxton who hasn't played in like over a month.   Holly Crap was Buxton having an MVP year to start the year. 

from what i see on radar - no chance this gets in

 

Think this just got PPD, FanDuel took it off the schedule.

Yermin's response: 

"Hey, shut up.   You're not clutch yourself. Go read Soxtalk and then come back at me."

I will take 2.5 up and a day of rest and keeping Lynn on schedule

PPD 

 

Well on a good note, Lynn  doesn't go on short rest.

Yeah, silver lining.  Losing 2 of 3 winnable games leaves a bad taste though.

Any game we can push to the back of the schedule with OF reinforcements coming is a good thing for me.   Especially for a possible division showdown.

I bet the Indians are saying the same thing, "we should have swept the Sox."

Wouldn't hate this. 

We definitely have the edge in starting pitching today like the Indians had yesterday. Bieber vs Cease, I knew going in that was a tough matchup, and still the Sox had a chance to pull it out at the end. 

 

Ah, just read through the thread, game is postponed...

Lynn on short rest after Cease gave the Sox 3.1 innings last night?

This is a big W

Gonna be nice having our full lineup against them come September

I said it last night and got some push back, but I'll say it again and will bookmark my post, by the time the Sox play the Indians on September 23, they'll be up double digits in the standings.

Not usually a huge fan of PPD, but the Sox are better off for this one.

Agreed. Maybe not double digits but that series will be anticlimactic IMO. Bieber can’t pitch every game for them!

Not quite Spahn and Sain and pray for rain...but I'll take this one today.  Been bad in day game getaway contests this year.  Get ready for Detroit.

Cool, players are probably glad they called it early as well.  Can go get on the plane and get some rest before playing what is actually a hot Detroit club.
