Because he's hit well vs. lefties in his career. I don't mind him in the lineup, but hitting him 5th seems a bit high. 

Hanser Alberto is not good at baseball. The fact that he is on the roster and hitting 5th today is clear evidence that the Sox's rebuild has been a massive failure.

This Giants offense is going to end up being terrible also

I've never heard of 1/3 of the guys in this lineup.

It has nothing to do with his performance today. Would have said this a month ago.

You want the entire team to sink into the earth. Something negative coming from you in the past, present or future is not a surprise. 

lol the Giants' SS play this series has been something else.

Well that’s also stupidity considering they would need to fill 3 rotation spots if they don’t keep him.

Hit a dinger. It's a good strategy.

The word was Duvall wanted no part of a platoon.

Edit - I see this has been covered

Not sure he would have been worried about a platoon with Colas in Charlotte and a few extra bucks.

I absolutely think they should try to build around Robert and Cease.  

Seby might be out.

Hahn loves Clevinger so if he continues to pitch well I'd watch out for an extension, much to the dismay of all of us who think he's likely a garbage person. 

give my man his stolen base

Yes. After the 12 year rebuild when everyone else you hate is gone.

There's no way Clevinger takes an extension that the Sox are comfortable with giving out if he's actually pitching well. 

TA, try something different today.....hitting with RISP.

The team is sinking into the earth.  Us fans can only watch.

Seby Zavala can't be denied.

There we go, Timmy!

Amazing what he can do with a little patience.  Nice rally 

Tim pulled the damn ball again...

...and it worked!

It's still a game if Lance gets his s%*# together. 

Lots of game left in this one. Let's go.
