June 25, 20232 yr Author Angels 23-0 over the Rockies after 11 and 8 run innings... barely halfway through. Five homers, including Drury (Sox could have looked at but apparently out of budget) and Trout.

Explanations for stunning even and now odd year successes... yet another team that seems to get the most out of the least. (Note: Sox should be very grateful Twins let Lemonte Wade Jr. and Luis Arraez both get away.)
June 25, 20232 yr Author https://www.yahoo.com/sports/philadelphia-phillies-broadcasters-picked-wrong-205954680.html Might want to avoid trading TA7 to the Phillies... that said, he would have to homer first to agitate broadcaster and long time pitcher Larry Andersen

July 30, 20232 yr Maybe Tampa should make a move. Houston got Alvarez and Altuve back and said, "Hi, remember us?" They're leading 16-2. HR Abreu (10), Yordan 3-5. Chas (bleepin') McCormick has a .900 OPS. Weird fact: McCormick and Jake Meyers their 2 centerfielders, each hit right, throw left. Can never remember a team with two of those types. Anyway, Houston still a formidable team for anyone trying to win the AL.

I mean complementary/supplemental players that are not the core of the team. As you pointed out...Straw's offensive limitations ultimately pushed him off the roster to the Guardians.
