Maybe they know there will be about 50 people at the park today and planned accordingly.

And all 50 got those tickets to get the mystery bobble head.

Ovation?  There will probably be bout 5,000 people there.

It continues to be rather telling that Garcia isn't even playing in these worthless games. 

Hopefully this means the players that are here just because they are "Tony's guys" are gone.

Makes sense. They’ve enjoyed playing with a short-handed roster to this point anyway.

So the worst player in baseball has been stashed on the bench when he should have been on the DL.

My Lord, this franchise. SMH

I hope Abreu is a manager or a coach someday. He deserves it.

Maybe coach 1st base next year if he is sincere about retirement.

Nice, always makes sense to keep the injured barely usable player on your roster as opposed to putting him on the IL and bringing up someone you can use normally.

Sox are just ahead of the norm.

Start Abreu one last time for f***'s sake.  Give the man his swan song.

Len Kasper stated Jose requested the day off, and to sit next to the manager.

Impressive. 

Crap start to end it 

This is off to a fine start

This is the first game in weeks I've turned on. Lasted about 10 minutes lol. Sox are gonna finish 81-81. There is not a more fitting end of the season record for this 2022 team.

We got our fifth man. 

I'm sure our group of scrappers will make a come back rather than just packing it in

Jose, Yasmani and Eloy heading to the bullpen for an inning each if they keep this up.

Not ready for prime time good to find out now.

Salt of the earth, as reddit would say.

If there ever was a .500 team this Sox team is it. 

Hahn is always looking for reasons to not build depth. Martin shoving again would have made it easier for him to be the 5th or 6th starter to open next year.

maybe this is for the best.

Glad I got the Twins at +115 in the morning before lineups came out.

there's been a lot of value in betting against the Sox this year.

We have all winter to forget about Davis Martin

Well, people here want Abreu gone, so reap the whirlwind.

Yep let Abreu pitch today

No game matters today.  Sox are the only team who took the day off.  

At least they won't get no hit.
