Not good at all.

These guys literally look like they don’t give a shit.

Horrendous at bat.

Dylan “Jekyll and Hyde” Cease.

Sox look completely flat tonight.

I see inconsistent Cease is back.

Or try not sucking.

Done. Going outside to drink beer.

Maybe it’s good the Sox didn’t lock him up yet. He’s been…spotty this year.

Giolito has to stop getting ahead of hitters and then throwing shit pitches.

This sucks.

Terrible choice not to challenge.

Not Steve Cishek, he who never met an exclamation point he didn't love, said that the Sox will certainly be making a move. He proclaimed the worst case scenario is a position player and bullpen help while the best case scenario is "beyond our wildest dreams". I can't for the life of me think of a move that would fit that description. To me, the biggest, least expected move would be Haniger. Any thoughts on a move so big Sox fans would shit their pants?

Welcome to SoxTalk!

A broken hand would keep him out for a while. Hope he's okay.

Dead, just jammed fingers, or playing dead. You could guess all three from this thread.

He would fit so well on this team. I don't see it happening, but it's a damn near perfect fit.

The HR was awesome, but what was really impressive was him taking two hits to left field during his first game. He seems to have good plate discipline and shows confidence up there. Hopefully he'll stick around at the MLB level for a while.

I'd love to see it. I wonder who might be available that a) makes sense for the Sox, and b) the Sox could actually acquire.

Even over the next week or so we may see some teams tip more toward selling than they had been recently (Cubs and Twins to name two). There will be some pretty interesting players available and several that make perfect sense for the Sox. I don't imagine we'll see any blockbusters involving the Sox. Maybe Escobar, some relatively unexciting OF help, and a reliever.

Looking back, it's hilarious how Donaldson pimped his home run only to see his team implode and get destroyed. Also, his next at bat ended with a comically bad sword (and one of the loudest cheers from the fans of the game). It was like a WWE storyline where the heel gets the better of the good guy over and over until he's soundly defeated at Wrestlemania.

Nice sword.

That was a limp-dick offensive inning.

Just a bad pitch to a good hitter. Of course Donaldson’s pimping may result in a plunking.

What the hell could he say?
