You have to be really good at being bad to go 0-8 against any team.

Watch the Twins put up a 5 spot this inning.

I doubt this team would score a run the majority of the time if they started every inning with a baserunner at 3B.

Kopech did it.

Don’t put down moms like that. I bet a lot of them know way more about the Sox and baseball than Schriffen does.

Get ready for another fantastic finish!

Need to win this game to be 1-7 against the Twins.

This roster move aged well. Didn’t even take half a day.

If DeJong isn’t hitting a random homer here and there, man he is awful.

Did anyone catch the reason Schriffen gave for this roster move during the broadcast? All I heard was him mention a “numbers game” but I missed what specific reason he gave. I was also too busy watching Leasure get tattooed.

Not surprising at all. The guy has been hyping him during broadcasts. Meanwhile, he knows dick about baseball.

That was quite the leasurely pitch, right down the cock of the plate. 116.7 mph exit velocity. 9th hardest hit baseball this season.

Yeah, I don’t think Leasure is ready for those high leverage situations yet, Stone Pony.

He giveth and then taketh away.

BOOM. Worth his contract.

Benintendi is going to play unless he’s hurt or the Sox decide to eat his contract, which isn’t likely. With Robert healthy and the Sox looking to play Pham until he is traded, there isn’t much of an opening.

Does he deserve to? After his initial hot streak, he looks like a 28 year old fourth outfielder.

Has Wilson really been that bad recently? He had 3 rough outings in a row on June 19, 20, and 24 in which he gave up a combined 4 runs. But he hasn’t been truly terrible like Kopech and he’s getting optioned to the minors? If he’s injured, put him on the IL. https://www.mlb.com/player/steven-wilson-621051?stats=gamelogs-r-pitching-mlb&year=2024

Yep. And Mountcastle isn’t even that old, but while he’s solid, he’s nothing special and could be moved.

I bet they end up trading none of those names.

The Brewers would trade Ortiz for Thorpe in a nanosecond. And DL Hall absolutely blows because he walks the world. It would be difficult to argue that the Sox didn’t get a better return for Cease than the Brewers did for Burnes.

I think they would target a guy like Fedde over Crochet due to the prospect price and I think some combination of Norby/Beavers/lesser prospects would be enough. I don’t even consider Crochet an option for Baltimore because they won’t want to pay his price. You thinking/hoping the Orioles give up their top prospects for Crochet or Fedde isn’t going to will it into existence. We have already seen this song and dance with Elias.
