I think Sosa's time is coming at some point this year, but there is no reason to make the switch yet

Give Romy a shot there.

So we can eventually part ways with him...just like Rodon?

That's going to be the sad part...because TA won't give another team-friendly deal to anyone.  He wants to get paid.

I'm not going to cheer for players on the team to not perform so they cost Jerry less money.

but I also don't think a ~200M deal is coming for TA when he'll turn 32 in year 1 of his next contract.

Good AB andrew

Grifol is obviously at least attempting to change the subdued tone of this team from last year...but we still don't have the D and bullpen that the Twins and Guardians throw at you.

This is a fair point. Also worth noting his injury history as well 

AV's plate discipline has been a lot better this year. This lineup badly needs to him to be a high OBP/walks guy.

We'd all be a lot more optimistic about what we were seeing if our pitching wasn't Paniagua level.

Even so, something like 3/100m would be too expensive for the Sox. 

Don't help him out

the least advantageous situation in baseball for the batter is upon us.

Key at-bat of the game coming here...

Velasquez hurt?

Bases loaded. It's over for the Sox. 

Good take

And he will get 5-6 years from someone in "win now" mode.

Book it.

He's a much more dynamic DJ LeMahieu...minus the walks.

1-2... .

95 center cut couldn't square it up.

Still a game for now...
