Lets win again.

Sox came into today with a 4.20 team ERA and a -69 run differential and I need someone other than me to be aware of this NICE statistic

Christ. That ball was hammered.

This lineup is so brutal.  Not sure why Teel can’t DH more often to get more at bats to develop.

paging rocket man. 

some decent talent behind home plate in Toronto.

That was the meatballs of all meatballs. 
 

And if they lose it’s Josh’s fault. 

Do you think Schriffen realizes that Vargas is hitting .225 with bad defense over his last 30 games?

Civale is awful. Still won the trade. 

Batting practice

Good effort so far in this one…sigh 

Also, there is no doubt in my mind Teel is the superior defensive catcher.

My god he is awful.  Get him out.  Even the outs are rockets

Might want to stop throwing the first pitch over the plate

No. Definitely not.

He will be traded for some 25 year old A ball prospect we will never hear from again.

Beckham made a good point. Enough of this one day in the lineup one out for Teel and Quero. They're never gonna get red hot if you keep interrupting their rhythm. Their lineup is better when they're both there. Let them play. 

You can't win with a 9th batter and leadoff hitter hitting 11 for 102

Better than just releasing Vaughn at the end for nothing. 

We punted this game, team knows it. Probably a long night out on the town last night for some of these guys too.

What is this zone?

That's more than I expect.

You have a guy who struck out 4 times last night leading off, probably never led off in his life. (He did single for the only Sox hit).  I’m not sure what Venable is trying to accomplish with these goofy lineups, 

 

A homerun trot (basically) for a triple is hilarious.

 

Also what a slide by Vargas. Incredible.
