Jason jinxed that call?

I'm fine with Reynaldo being the 6th starter, but I feel pretty confident that he's a better pitcher than Keuchel at this point

Nice hustle Yoan

Assuming the Manaea trade doesn't materialize, I'd have Kopech, Keuchel and Lopez rotate through the 4-5 spots. Each time through, two pitch and one is skipped. Should keep Kopech's workload manageable and limits Keuchel's exposure.

Agree with this. If one jumps out in front  you can try to ride the hot hand for a while but will keep Kopech fresh for the playoffs and (hopefully) Keuchel under 160.

ROMY HOMIE !!

I kinda wish Romy was starting at 2B over Harrison.

Romy got under a shin ball and cranked it out. I like his skill set. They might keep Micker on the 28 man to give him a look and a shot but then it's Romy s turn.

Wasted so much money on Leury and Harrison when Romy can probably provide similar production.

Josh is more like another Leury at this point and adds little of value. 

If Romy plays well, he *should* obviously have a path to taking the every day 2b job. But who knows if Tony would actually give him the job over a veteran.

Seby bomb

Seby bomb!

I'm conflicted on how to feel about a Seby bomb because the Sox need to upgrade at backup C

SEby HR 2 run bomb with Adolfo on. 5-0 Sox

Audition for another club?

OK I like the long ball. 

Bombs away 3rd HR this inning . Romy, Seby , Remi

ST  batting average doesn't earn a spot on the roster nor do ST HRs...but I have been a fan of Romy and Seby so I enjoyed seeing their blasts.

And Remiillard's as well.

I was on board with Romy and Leury getting the 2B at bats thinking they would have signed a RF. After signing Harrison, I still prefer it

A bench that is Romy, Harrison, Engel, catcher is a decent bench. Especially since Romy can be optioned in a pinch if you need an extra catcher or OF or pitcher.

Adolfo impressed me nearly every at bat. And yes, Romy over Harrison should have happened.

Love the organization selling us on the importance of great contact skills for the 35 year old nick madrigal. 

Harrison wishes he was 1/3 of the value Madrigal is

yeah, it isn't that far fetched to think he would be better lol.  Good thing we gave 5.5 million for Harrison though.
