Moncada returns for tonight. I think this is risky.  Should have waited a week.  I fear he and Eloy are going to get hurt hugging departing teammates.

They should rename the IL in honor of this guy.

The Eloy Jimenez Listed. My man got EJ'd.

Burger at 2B

I've changed my mind on an India trade.

Vaughn’s playing 

I for one just want to see Vaughn hit with the boot on. Do it Pedro you coward.

Sure they're hoping for Burger to just run into one and pull him early. Still will be funny to see.

Burger at 2B huh, batting 8th. Gold glove level of range and 2nd will be on display tonight!

I'm tuning in for the second base burger experience.

lol Vaughn and Burger on the right side of the infield??? Whatever, season is over anyway. 

Let’s strive mightily to win and then sweep the crosstown series

Bunting every at bat toward Lynn Burger Vaughn would result in much success, even more Lance Lynn anger.

Perhaps Lynn would retire after the game like La Roche, likely would sprain his knee and/or ankle by the second inning if he bothered trying to field more than one or two bunts.

This has Rick Hahn written all over it. Perhaps a dash of Kenny and a lump of Jerry. The Sox brain trust.

Actually, from what we've seen all year... hit it to anyone except Robert and Moncada if he's not in a wheelchair

I think people will watch the game just to see Burger at second. This could be their final 2 months marketing strategy: come see the defensive freak show. Bright spot, we'll finally see TA at catcher.

Yeah you’re right. Hit in anywhere in the infield except third base and you’re good lol

That is about the only intrigue I have.  And I expect it to be a catastrophe.

Just let Remillard play. Maybe he can stop gap for 2 yrs while Gonzalez is ready if he ever is

He's been passable at 3B.  He probably has no future as a second baseman.  Just put Moncada at 2B where he has played a lot before and leave Burger at 3B where his defense has improved.
