syndegaard is absolutely cooked

I look forward to seeing him in a Sox uni when he gets released by Cleveland.

It'd be great for Oscar to show something over the final 2 months of this season

It wouldn't surprise me at all if they sign him this off-season

CLE probably gets burned by Thor and Civale trades...got too cute trying to compete and build for future simultaneously.

Nah, that was a white flag trade and everyone knew it.

Me neither unfortunately 

Ok, after reading Sox Talk, I'll turn on the game.

Wow 3-0......for how long tho.

Nice, Kopeck can't hold a runner and Grandal can't throw

Except the Twins did nothing and the CLE #6-13 starters have provided more than half the innings this year.

Naylor oblique is biggest blow.

What season was the last time Grandal threw out a runner?

Bummer is the supposed closer with Santos on bereavement list.

A very gettable division unless you're a team in the middle of its championship window

Why didn’t AV do that in the first inning.

Lack of confidence losing hair?

Shared sadness with Madrigal over Oregon State and Cal Berkeley programs under threat.

Probably 75-80% confidence and comfort with those situations. a generally he's among the best with RISP on Sox...just not bases loaded.

TA7 was right about that one...

Running the three man weave...

Jimenez looks like he has put on 10-15 pounds.

Might've got Konerko at 1B there but not Robert 

Robert showing MVP stuff tonight

Lulu has only 38 more steals to catch Acuna JR.

 

Jason the Browns have one of the best ground attacks in NFL lol.

I’d love to see him just try a regular stance for a week to see if it helps

Maybe it's those ugly red shoes but looks like he's stuck in concrete getting out of that stance.
