Sit him tomorrow

I think this makes a lot of sense.  Day game after a night game, righty Taijuan Walker on the mound for the Phillies, off day on Thursday (trade deadline day).  No reason to risk injury to Robert.  I even question starting Houser tomorrow over doing a bullpen day.

Yeah I don't see any benefit to starting Houser tomorrow and Robert should be out too.

Reports out there that Acuna might be the target.  That would be awful, this team doesn’t need another infielder with no power.

I didn’t think the Sox could target a worse option than Vientos, but apparently I was wrong.  We could have a nice collection of some of the weakest hitting 2B of all time.

It’s almost like our GM was a crappy hitting 2b

I would not be surprised if the Sox tried to make him a full-time CF.  Either way, BAD.  You can have great tools but you still have to be able to hit.  How did this guy make the MLB’s top 100 list two years in a row (#71 in 2023, #93 in 2024)?

To be fair, Lenyn has some pop for a 2Ber.

 

He just has zero actual baseball acumen.

He would hit more homers if he had any patience and wasn’t swinging at every bad pitch thrown his way.  His current BB to strikeout rate is eerily close to last year, and both are bad.
