Just tuned in. Bats dead again.

How is Moncada only hitting .138? Change of scenery time for him. Commit to Burger at third, either move Moncada to second where his bat won't matter as much (Harrison is just as bad) or trade Moncada for 3 prospects, one a first-rounder.

Nobody would give up a single prospect for him right now, let alone a past first round pick...unless they're a Top 6-8 payroll team with massive risk tolerance like the Mets, Giants or Dodgers, who will need to replace Turner soon.

You’re greatly overvaluing Leury even when things are going right for him.

When are things going right for him?  We’ve yet to see him in the role he’s suited for, which is the super sub role.  

He keeps getting pushed into a starting role due to injuries, the crazy manager, and an ineffective front office who did a terrible job addressing the second base issue this past offseason.  

Remember: he didn’t pencil himself into the lead-off spot tonight against one of the best teams in baseball.

He hasn’t been playing all that much lately and he still sucks.

Someone must tell TLR that the matchup/platoon system is over going forward with the crappy switch hitters that we have.  Play our best performing players regardless of matchups. The lineup tonight was a disgrace with Leury, Moncada and Grandal hitting in the top five of the lineup.

blood from a stone at this point.

Every single Sox lineup with the possible exception of 2011 through 2021 was so much better.

Delmonico and Palka would be classed as heroes right up there with BurgaTron.

Wait....you mean the offense with LOLEury leading off, and Moncada 3rd, haven't managed to put on an offensive display? Who could have seen that coming?

Don't threaten Stone Pony or there will be hell to pay on Twitter.

Yep, it’s so hard to see how this gets fixed anytime soon

Leury will find himself in a big spot one more time in this game and Andrew Vaughn will not be pinch hitting and you all know it

This is insane. You can't continue to run Grandal, Moncada, and Garcia out there. And because they are only 4 GB is not an excuse to continue it. 

I don't know what the options are with the 3 of them but you have to do something. 

Tonight is another prime example of a game where the pitching has been more than good enough but you can't score because you have those 3 in the line up. 

Do something about it!

Mendick looked like a high school player trying to hit a fastball there

Moncada is going to go down with the likes of Josh Hamilton and Matt Bush at this rate as massive wastes of talent.

My god fuck off Leury.

Trade market not yet fully developed/clarified.

LoL.

Unless you are the Brewers moving on Adames.

Behind the 8 ball doesn't do it justice.

Leadoff man 0-4 with 3 ks and pop out to catcher.  

Booing was very audible.

 

Just non competitive.

Luis and that stance just isn’t getting the job done. Way to go Menechino.  He really struggles to drive anything now.

They will go 1 2 3 rather meekly in the 9th.

Not only you have the three in the lineup but they are hitting in top five positions in the lineup.

Leury 0-4, 3K. Brilliant leadoff performance.

Don’t hate the player, hate the manager and whoever offered him this ludicrous contract 

Graterol has some filthy stuff. I figured he'd have better numbers.
