Grandal batting lefty after Robert is insulting. Neither should be playing.

Grandal has actually been fine lately. It's obvious he's not healthy, but still pretty clearly better than Seby, I think.

Righty he’s been good. Lefty he’s been awful

Ugh, I’m not about to stay up until midnight watching another 3-2 snoozer. Hopefully I wake up to good news. 

You know what is sad is we are all arguing over whether Robert has been good or not but I would definitely say he has not played to his expectations or what he’s capable of but that also goes for Eloy, Tim, Yoan, and Grandal and here they are only 2 games out of 1st place in this division. It just goes to show you how much better they can be than the rest of this division

I can't stop watching Gilberts recoil.  Recoils just happen but his looks engineered.  I would love to hear the reasoning behind it.

I don’t even know why it was looked at as an argument, no one said he wasn’t good. The merits of him being great though are still very questionable, now and in the future, that’s all the point was.

That's the issue with this group, and why they'll never win anything. Too much good to very good, zero great position players. 

Kopech I have a feeling is going to pull a Rodon.

As in he’s going to have a great season and we let him leave for nothing?

He's going to be injured/inconsistent until his walk year and they let him go be an ace somewhere else, yeah. 

Excellent JC.

However you want to call it, argument or disagreement on whether he’s great or just been good. Doesn’t matter. He has not even scratched the surface of his potential if you ask me. Whether that is due to injury or letting the hype of greatness being called the Cuban Mike Trout or whatever they designated him go to his head. The latter goes right along the rest of the teams cockiness about how good they are by crowning themselves the best team in the league before ever accomplishing anything. Either way something needs to change one way or another this off season to fix this Titanic of an organization. 

Nice Yoan!

i said yoan is fixed

Holy s%*# Yoan is pulverizing baseballs. 

Yoan has scorched the ball both times up. Hopefully he is *finally* about to start hitting.

But at some point you are what you have been whether it's a bunch of injuries or declining performance.

 

Sox are going to retaliate. That’s two at Jose’s head.

Is he Lou Brown from ML II? 

The 2 hardest hit balls of the game so far are both from Yoan.

Robert and Eloy are 25 years old. There is still time for them. 

Encouraging 2 AB's for Yo . 107 and 109 MPH hits.

Cannot squander this situation here.

swinging at ball 4

Sox hitters just refuse to take a walk. Should be bases loaded.
