When was the last time that was enforced?

I mean, it's Abreu. I think you send just about anyone else there. But I saw that coming as soon as the ball was fielded. Abreu is so damn slow. Should have held him.

Good send - just a perfect throw. Oh well.

Anyone else watching mlb.tv seeing this talking butt commercial?

Two days ago I think 

I hate Arraez

Leury was hitting next. Great send.

Gio's velocity is waay down this year. Surprising given reports out of ST. 

Ruh-roh.

Damn. Gotta get to that ball

Not good

Was thinking the same earlier. Seeing 91-92 on the FB like WTF mate?

So sick of 1B playing OF for the Sox 

Slow as shit in LF.  And yes, Giolito has no fastball.

I just don't understand the positioning of our LF's against lefties.

He just spent 2 weeks on the IL, I'm not surprised he's not sharp or throwing as hard. 

Lets try and measure the damage caused by not making that relatively routine play.

He faked out the runner.  No way was he going to get to that ball.

It was similar on OD.

He should have, it landed a few feet away because he’s incredibly slow and plays way too deep.

Right down the pipe with 2 strikes

It was cold as shit out on OD. Chill.

He’s the type of person that shouldn’t mess with what was working in the past.

Because that is where our dumbass coaches position him. No reason to be that deep against a lefty 

Larnach is a whoosh guy.
