So why is it Abreu at 35 can play everyday even though you know he is hurting, but the young guys need multiple days off a week? 

Maybe that is a clue as to one of the many things wrong with this team.

Like his so called future replacement?  I don't know why I'm down on Vaughn but after a great game - 2 days rest.  I'd think players would want to be on the field.

god thats sad

Yolmer had a year where he reached 2 WAR. Madrigal was a few weeks away from doing so last year until his hammy blew out.

TLR runs this team with no sense of urgency.  Like we have all the time in the world to get back in the division race.  Resting sore legs for the playoff which may never come. Putting the cart before the horse.  You see other contending teams playing their key players most every game.  That is why they get paid big bucks for, not grabbing some bench.

To him yes

Pollock sucks I had hopes for him but he's done. 

 Someone explain to me how Baez go that big contract.

Shortstops with a muti year track record of very good production get paid a ton of money. Particularly when you're signing them during their age 29 season.

Would Cubs fans boo TA if he signed with the Brewers or something? I don't understand why so many Sox fans dislike him just because he was a Cub.

Skubal settling in.  Sad last two innings sans Big Energy.

I don't get it either.  It's not like he's a Sox killer.  Well he probably would be if the Sox signed him.

But if TA signed with the Cards definitely.

I'm glad Harrison has developed into a likable player

He was always likable to me.  I'm glad he developed into a productive player.

I'm sure glad Tony had to play Josh tonight.

I'm enjoying this but would enjoy more dongs if we're being honest

Eloy stop chasing pitches practically in the dirt please

I'm taking all the hate back for Harrison.  He needs to play 2b everyday. He is not a perfect player but better than......leury, Madrigal, Cesar,........maybe better then Mendick 

Offense back in a shell

The problem with this team is the run differential is always small.  That leaves for Tony, boneheaded play, someone's turn in the pen to choke, to ruin it.

Odd though is when the put up a bunch of run they make up for it by losing the next day.

His bat was no suppose to be important because they other guys were suppose to do the job.

Leury is superman!!

Dude just fouled a ball off his ankle and did not flinch 

I have that feeling that the Sox are going to be in trouble if they don't add on some more runs. 

So someone give me some logic as to what a manager would bat Pollock 2nd? 

Offense was fun for a few batters in the first.

What options are there?  He has a track record that's wearing thin.
