The big problem is you have no one for the seventh in a tie game that can really rely upon...just guesswork with the pen other than Graveman.

 

Luis in a bit of a mini slump but not striking out much and has an opportunity to wreck havoc on the basepaths.

I guess they answered the ? about the 7th....and the 8th

Sousa will have to adjust later in the season when there's more of a scouting report on him, but I've always liked him. Was a fan when I first saw him in W-S. He has always been a very good reliever in the system. 

He hasn't looked real good vs. righties. But he's pretty tough on lefties. 

If Banks and Sousa can become a good (and healthy) replacement for Jace Fry and then Crochet as the second lefty...that would be a massive win for the 30th ranked farm system.

Let's save some raps for Garcia. 

Liam will have to get through Ramirez, Diaz, and Margot

@caulfield12 in shambles again over this RP performance!

Oh close

 

Jose needed to elevate that one a bit more. 

Damn

Benetti still off more often than not anticipating homers...oh well, can't get everything right.

This bullpen really is impressing me so far. 

Liam available? If not I'd go with Graveman

Hopefully he builds off yesterday and does not walk the tightrope again

Personally I don't think it takes much to replace Jace Fry

Eloy looks like he just tweaked his back

Eloy is wearing a shinguard now, at least

Eloy, just another awesome AB

Back back shortstop makes the grab.

Let's go Liam

Pretty sure nobody expected Ruiz and Sousa to replicate the 2005 pen coming into today...Politte and Cotts.

Considering he's in AAA right now and was a free agent after the Crochet injury... if the Sox wanted him back, he'd be here

Move Vaughn to left, put engel in RF at this point

Well to be fair the way the wind has been this week...

Liam can't possibly blow a save on his bobblehead day, right? Right?

Well sure, the long term prognosis on two TJ surgeries not all that great...
