Hitting Leury leadoff and third won the prize.

The main reason they have a losing record at GRF.

There are few things better that lead to a win than the Earl Weaver special, the 3 run homer. It is rare for the Sox this season.

Too many ground balls in the infield, and not enough fly balls into outfield, particularly big flys.

Should not be hitting Moncada 5th until he starts hitting. He is taking too many third strikes and weak swings. He is not protecting Abreu either.

Character and professional pride should be traits to evaluate and consider before you hand out a big long term contract to anybody. Abreu has them but Moncada does not.

If Lynn and Gio can keep it up, with Cease, Kopech and Cueto, and relievers stay healthy the Sox have the best overall pitching vs Twins and Guardians. This should keep us in the hunt. We need to score more runs and hit more homers. Can’t afford any more bases loaded and no outs and score no runs like today. Need better defense as well. We also have a problem to overcome, TLR and his coaching staff is one of the worse in the majors. It is going to be tough, but it is achievable because pitching wins games.

Doesn’t JR or one of his buddies have a private jet?

It is good to see Salvy hitting late when we are ahead 9-2. In a close game not so much. The memo is still valid. Don’t let Salvy beat us.

Bet your money that Leury will be in the lineup somewhere. He hardly ever miss two games in a row.

Does TLR have a cot in the dugout or clubhouse?

Particularly with the Black Panther coming back as well.

Diezman with a very successful outing. Hahn extremely happy.

Moncada experiment hitting second and fifth needs to end. Both him and Grandal when he plays should not be higher than 7 th until they show some life.

About a female hottie.

We really did not need Grandal same as we did not need Kimbrel. McCann was very adequate.

It says more that the Twins and Guardians are not good either.

Even when walks, he is a base clogger, very slow needs three hits to score him.

Agree with you on Moncada but rather keep Abreu and get rid ofGrandal instead. Will need to get a 3B and catcher replace not in place.

TLR and Hahn love relievers more than anything else.

Very soft swing. GrandaL and Moncada are killing all our rallies.

Contact play with Vaughn is no bueno.

Eloy heard you. He is the man now.

Hahn didn’t or couldn’t pull the trigger on Pederson, Gallo or Happ.

I think he got overpaid and decided to enjoy his money and not exert too much on the field. Don’t forget he used to make like $30 a month in Cuba. Sudden riches spoil people IMO.
