Nice to know that Luis Robert is Dead!!

Dead but taking up a roster spot.  It's like Weekend at Louie's.  They'll just prop up him up in the dugout with sunglasses on.  Josh Harrison will occasionally walk by and give him a fist bump.

Didn't they say Robert was playing today?  Further makes me think he is having mental health issues.

If Robert sitting for an extra couple games was the first time they'd done this in 2022, I probabaly would be curious but not more than that. But they've very consistently done this same thing this year - probably closing in on 10 times. They've probably played with a short roster due to guys who were going onto or coming off the IL in 1/3 or even 1/2 of their games this year. Its utterly bizarre and confusing. I've never seen anything like it.

Robert was out too late last night celebrating his birthday. TLR was with him.

Funny thing is I believe he got a day off in the minors after his birthday

Here’s the Robert explanation of why he was activated. 

why would you activate him and not start him? I don't get it man.

Why would they not call Hasely up?

For one game? They have enough people that can stand in the outfield for todays game. 

The Duber Tweet explains him not being activated Monday but on Tuesday McGuire replaced by Diekman and Robert replaces Martin

Why he was off both games is the mystery?

This is a clown show.

That doesn't stop them from bringing Burger or Haseley up instead and them optioning them back when Robert is actually ready.  But yeah, its not really worth getting up in arms about but Sox continue to manage their roster in incredibility stupid ways. 

JR is laughing about all of this with his buddies upstairs.

2 games. Looks like he would have saved Gavin Sheets life.  Why are we constantly intentionally playing with a shortened roster? As someone said, I've never seen anything like it

Still sounds like some lame excuses about Robert not playing.  It's like they think the fanbase is dumb.

Well, we keep coming back, so maybe we are dumb.

Question: Are they playing a man short to save money? If they don't call anyone up, they don't have to give them MLB game checks.

Brady Singer has given up 2 ER in 22.1 innings against the Sox the past 2 years for a 0.81 ERA. 

He's also pitching really well right now. We couldn't hit him when he was pitching like shit last year.
