Only the Sox could put a young player at a position they’ve never played before early in their career.

I don’t get it. They refuse to play Teel and Queeo at the same time but will just toss one of their most important future pieces at 3B at the most difficult level.

You don’t love the idea to trade Taylor because his career is over?

The Sox clearly view him as only a reliever.  What good does it do the Sox to have a closer the next few years?  They need position prospects way more than just having Taylor.

We have no idea how they view him. The Sox have had plenty of guys start as a reliever and make the move.

They've stated repeatedly that they're using him as a reliever this year to get him innings. They have also stated that they see him as a starter after this year.

Harold said that was bs.  Personally, I don’t buy for a second the best way to build up a starter is one inning relief appearances.

He doesn’t usually play every day right? Definitely weird with a lefty on the mound though.

Not every day, but he did have their only RBIs last night

Venable’s decisions to go with an opener and play Montgomery out of position biting him in the a$$!

Pretty sure he’s not the decision maker here
