Who could have seen this coming!?!?

That being said, the recent news that Conforto is still not throwing and may not even be able to play this year makes that whole fiasco a little more understandable. Sounds he should have jsut gotten surgery when it happened.

If Pollock could be relied upon to actually play most days, he'd help the problem some - even as righty.  

He should have taken that QO.

Grandal not catching again is obvious something is wrong with him.

This is not good when you have 8 other guys lining up or the DH position.

Nope. This is McGuire has built rapport with VV and his only chance of succeeding is with Reese

Well just got back from Tennessee last night. Been gone about a week and some change. What did I miss? I see we're on a losing streak which is disappointing.

Tim Anderson forgot how to play baseball and Leury Garcia batted 2nd or 3rd.

Nothing.

With Vince on the bump and Garcia batting how can you go wrong??

Yeah, he was in the 3 spot on Thursday

The Sox supposedly are 9-2 in the last 11 games that Abreu-Grandal-Eloy have hit 3-4-5.

TLR says "I bet we can better that with Leury there, woops we are on a massive losing streak now and the bad play from Leury has infected the whole team"

"still feeling something" when hitting LH, says TLR

Ok.. that beats Ozzie batting Timo like 4th or 5th in the order that one time. That is insane to me.

When asked why he said "Leury does a lot of things, ran the bases"

I'm not kidding

Did he get hurt running the bases or hitting? I was reading some old stories about his injury but it didn't say how he did it. I guess for the future the Sox need to be two deep with "stars" cause history suggests our guys are gonna get hurt and be out significant portions of seasons. Sox subs are not very good. Sox need a better 2 deep.

At least I came back to seeing Vaughn hit second. Looks like he's been our best hitter from his numbers.

Batted 3rd Wednesday and Thursday.  And 2nd yesterday.  It’s been a thing.

You missed maybe the worst five game stretch I’ve seen in two decades for this team.

Jesus... Maybe I need to book another trip then.

Timmy had zero hits, six errors and one suspension.  Sox had two guys thrown out at home with no outs.  They also played a DH game where none of the main guys you would think of played...and lost 2-1.

At least we are now putting competent thought into the lineup. That is all fans are asking for. We know there are injuries and guys need rest or playing time. Just don't be idiotic about it.

Hopefully JR told Tony to cut that shit out

Wasn't he offered $100-120 million by the Mets last year and declined?

 

Sigh. Guardians are even managing to hang in there today in NY with guys like Naylor and Hedges getting key hits against the Yankees.  That bullpen has been impressive considering no Karinchak and Shaw's been around twenty years it seems like.

This week for the Sox has been the equivalent of watching Six Underground and Ambulance on a 70 hour continuous loop at volume setting 10.

Best comp.

Or a root canal.  

I think I prefer being shouted at by Jake Gyllenhaal or Nicholas Cage.

Sox could easily be in last place after all the games today.  Nicely done everyone.

Cubs and Tigers proving offense isn't dead today.  Just had to know that Torkelson would get it going eventually.
