3 hours ago3 hr If the Sox won both of the 10 inning losses preceding this game to sweep the Nats they would have a 5 game winning streak and there would be a different vibe among fans right now. Just have to stop blowing late leads and losing close games. So it was great to watch a 7 run 7th, the Angels bullpen implode, and of course,Yoan Moncada suck it in the clutch.

2 hours ago2 hr 1 hour ago, Look at Ray Ray Run said:I said the same last year. He hasn't been great when he has to sit down and get up either.I like Taylor a lot, but I'm not a fan at all of what the Sox are doing to develop him and think he's being broken by using him as a reliever for this long. I'd move him while his peripherals are ungodly and call it a day."What do you know about development, Pal?"

One lady looked up and told me, "I haven't heard my name said that way since my grandmother as alive".I always liked it on Barney Miller when People mangled Wojo's last name :)
1 hour ago1 hr I never thought in my wildest dreams Vargas could play this well. I take back all the rotten thingsI've said about him.
1 hour ago1 hr 8 hours ago, WestEddy said:Yeah, Kay better synch it pretty soon. Davitt, Sandlin, Shane Smith, Hagen Smith, and Tanner McDougal are all jockeying. I have a feeling next one up is going to settle like Noah Schultz. He could quickly be a LOOGY.LOOGY's really don't exist anymore

I take back all the rotten thingsI've said about him.Someone already said this but I have to agree. Vargas’s hustle in backing up Antonacci’s missed dive probably saved the game from going into extra innings.Very few 3rd basemen would have had the awareness and athletic ability to get there so quickly. An outstanding play. Stoney talks all the time about his high baseball IQ. People who want to dismiss his importance to this team don’t understand baseball.
