He has 3 options left. He’s not being DFA’d.

Did that scout drive a Jeep Cherokee?You're right you can't DFA your lone Sox All Star.

Even Fletcher/DeLoach got a ton of run.

Schultz starts tonight. If he continues to look like he did his first outing he might be up sooner than expected.

I couldn’t be less interested in that until he gets his pitch count up

OLE!

Oh christ

Pereira didn’t appear to go all out for that ball!

Outfield defense is just so bad. It’s truly amazing how they seemingly can’t fix anything on this roster year to year

I’m just shocked they pulled off a successful rundown!

Think Pereira may have misread that one. Another bloop in the books against Shane

Not missing any bats even when well ahead in the account.

More excellent defense!

If he doesn’t maybe they’ll DFA him

Yeah 3-4 inning starts will do no favors to that already taxed pen.

Stupid to play the infield in down 6.

Murakami must want to go back to NPB lol.

Alright!! Well executed rundown. Good coaching job.

I was going to blame that one on Shane rather than Luisangel but turns out that ball wasn't hit hard either

Sox suck.

Alright I actually have work to do. See you all on friday

I’m shocked Acuna sucks

Another consequence of moving Acuna all over the place...

Same happened with Baldwin.

This pitching staff is so bad. If you're not going to fire Getz, fire the new pitching coach.

THIS should be his breakout year. Last year he finally started pitching up near 100 pitches in games last year. Now should be the innings build.

Probably can’t turn this game on til toward the end, just checked the box score, probably not going to turn it on at all…wtf man.

Edit: somehow 2 more runs were scored in the 30 seconds it took to look at the box score and navigate to soxtalk to share my incredulity. wtf Shane

I am amenable to basically just trying people out at various spots and seeing how it goes but if you let the defense slip too much it ends up ruining your pitchers

Stearns is no idiot.

Didn't take him 2 1/2 years to learn the Mets' roster issues.

Or maybe they’re both bad defenders? I chuckle every time someone suggests Baldwin is the defensive savior this outfield needs.

So true

If you aren't going to fire the people who put the pitching staff together, it doesn't matter.

Stop! Stop! They are already dead!
