Yoan's defense is indispensable at 3rd.  He's a gold glove caliber third baseman.  How bad is Burger's defense at 2nd?

Tony had a tough choice. You want him hitting today to ride that slump busting momentum but DH would have caused a bigger problem. 

Yeah, then Burger would have to play 3B and Moncada would have had to sit during a day game after he just started at 3B last night.  Big problem.  (I hope your sarcasm meter is working.)

popping up the bunt worked in White‘s favor. Tough play

I agree about Yoan's D but how else do you get Burger in the lineup? 

You have to let Burger show if this is real or not. You have to give him as many AB's as you can the next few weeks. 

The Sox have some moves they are going to have to make with Jimenez coming back soon.

On this team this year, Burger DH and Yoan playing third makes a lot of sense. Going into the future, Moncada makes too much money to play third base just as a glove. A team can put a cheap glove at third all day long. Jake on a rookie deal at third base makes a lot of sense if he is for real.

Gio trying to give this lead right back. He's been getting good run support recently and just collapsing around the middle innings. 

getting squeezed all of a sudden

Yoan's defense at 3B is excellent.  But his defense at 3B does not warrant him starting there and forcing Jake Burger to play a position he has never played before.  I would bet Burger at 3B and Moncada at 2B would give the team better defense over all than Moncada at 3B and Burger at 2B.

Man, that got real close to leaving the park

SO who do we see when Grandal is IL'd Perez or Seby ?

I'll be mildly surprised if he is put on the IL. I think they are just being cautious today. Could be wrong, however.

Good thing Lucas shaked off for that slider

The Great Bombino absolutely kilt that

Giolito has not been an ace this year

Shades of Dodgers game.  Giolito just isn’t special this year.

HAHA did you expect less #NeverEasy

Lucas is garbage 

A hanging slider...you apparently can't give Lucas any kind of lead cause he'll start pitching like shit. 

Lucas far from a Ace this year

We can extend him at a discount!

Don’t even think of extending Giolito
