Robert still can’t swing a bat

Should have gone with Sheets.

Now would be a good time for Josh Harrison to have a moment.

And that’s why you have Robert bunt

a borderline threat!

Need a big energy moment here

2 singles . we are rolling now ..

Biggest AB of the year?

Yep, fitting

Opposite field HR's are dead.

almost..

Well that would've been huge

You'd think if Roberts hand hurts he'd look at more pitches and focus on something in his happy zone where ever that is .

Sighs.

62 pitches through 5 for Civale. Does everyone realize how big it is for Cleveland if he goes 6 or more with the lead?

Sox are so fundamentally unsound that Robert most likely doesn't know how to bunt.

He just wants to get back to the dugout ASAP.

Can you actually bunt one handed?

Robert playing is complete and utter bullshit.

It’s to the point I’m just sick of seeing him play this season. A colossal mess up not IL him right away and bringing up Colas.

Nice recovery from Cease.

I keep asking this, but I’ve never seen another team pull a stunt like the Sox have with him.

No,  I thought of that and agree it wouldn't be too good for the wrist, but I still haven't seen him attempt a bunt this year.

It's not like they need a left handed hitting outfielder who plays good defense in right field ?

Compare this throw to what we saw from Vaughn earlier in the game. Colas playing in RF, or just not having Pollock in the lineup at all, may have prevented the Guardians lone run so far

 

Naylor is only trying to hit a HR. You should be able to strike him out knowing that. You should also not be giving him anything he can drive.

The division being tighter than they expected has caused them to panic and rush guys back/have them play through injuries they shouldn't have the entire season.
