Benintendi is boring.

Not sure how many teams were lining up to give him $75 million after slugging < .400 last year.

Slick Rick was convinced otherwise.

Yankees were willing to give him 4 years and $60 million, fwiw.

that sounds low to me

Hanser's play that hurt Tim led to a run but wasn't an error. 3 errors, but 4 costly misplays.

Here comes the parade of injuries. 

I mean, I can't blame that one on training or anything.

Unless Hanser has been added to the training staff...

He did score 1700 high school basketball points in Cincy area.

Don't see that athleticism much anymore.

Weak swing by YG

Didn't Andrus boot Walner's grounder that led him to get on base? 

Bummer and Reynaldo here in theory...

That wouldn't hurt the Yankees though, were going to be stuck with the contract and its going to hinder us from making other moves.

If he can hit .300 with a high OBP that would be worth it for sure. He cant hit 3rd though, I don't understand that at all.

Don't forget that after Sheets made that error, he cut off the throw that may have gotten an out at home.

Not watching the game only following at work on Game tracker.

How serious did Tim's injury look?

Benintendi might be boring, and it hasn't been a great start in very SSS, but the deal is fine. $15M AAV isnt exactly superstar money 2023-2027, he adds lineup balance, OBP and is a solid OF.  He solves alot of problems.  But he isn't some star and Sox fans need to realize that.

That’s a situation to try for an extra base hit

This is a pathetic game.  Question is do Sox lose 5-4 in extras or 9-4 after bullpen implodes? 

Here comes Buxton to tie the game.

Not serious at all.

Sox 17th in new power rankings.  Fall two spots.

Not very, at all.

Buxton pinch hitting on his day off…is that allowed?!

I didn't like the signing (my avatar was Joey Gallo in a Sox hat for like 8 months) but still agreed with all of this. People are spending way too much time fixating on Bentendi's contract when he's the 172nd highest paid player in baseball this year.

He totally went around, we get fucked again.

Pinch hitting your best hitter in ninth inning of one run game. What a concept

He didn't go, but you can argue that he did. 

Buxton with 99 career homers.

Gallo still uncertain/day to day status.

8th?

Bummer doing more Bummer things.  Always finds new ways to make it interesting.
