Great job by Shuck, just awful though by Bonifacio. He's definitely deserving of being DFA

Not sure what Bonifacio is offering for this team except a good personality

Beat me to it. No purpose. Doesn't do anything well.

I'm not sure how RV came up with this lineup, but it's f***ing awful. Why would you give EAton the night off tonight and Boni at 2B is just asking for trouble.

If you put him 2nd, at least put a play on for him. Did he try to bunt in the first?

Geez, Adam - second time in the past couple of days. Hold onto that thang!!

Not sure why anyone would throw LaRoche a fastball

He did the first two pitches and they were balls then he swung on 2-0 and popped it up. Horrible

Nice catch by Avi. Don't understand why most folks here don't like his defense.

Stone coyly bringing the conversation current by changing the topic from Yaz to Abreu.

Nice at bats by Avi

He's been solid the last month or so. But before that he was bad. I will be happy if he's run neutral the rest of the year and maybe +5 or so next year.

I love his approach, not the best batter eye but his plate coverage is tremendous and he never gets pull happy. Eventually you want him to pull the ball more in the air but if he's a 300 hitter and the power only develops to 20 a year that's fine as well IMO.

Melky didn't swing

Bad bad bad bad

Because it's terrible.

 

As is his baserunning. STOP TRYING TO STEAL BASES AVI YOU CAN'T DO IT.

More awful offense/base running. Soto keeps taking strike 3

Just stop stealing. For the love of God.

Avi is NOT a base stealer never will be....................What bothers me is IF Sox brass really believe he is a 30/30 guy they need to resign tonight.

In his defense, this is more of a management problem IMO. I don't think Avi is going rogue -- he is being told to run. That's terrible management, not Avi.

Avi needs to learn how to slide. He's going to break his ankle if he keeps sliding as hard as he does.

Why the f*** does this team keep trying to run??

I am really worried about that. His legs are all kinds of awkward sliding into bases.

Maybe conventional wisdom is tricking Robin into believing that a team this incapable of power would be good at stealing bases.

He wasn't "stealing" he was running to stay out of the double play but Soto struck out
