nobody has to worry about Cleveland. they are not good enough to take over the division. Sox are playing incredible at 5 or 6/9 strength and with the months schedules coming up Sox are going to bring that lead WAY up. Cleveland has a rough schedule leading into all star break.
Always worry about Cleveland. Always.

If it works... it gives them options.
Moncada was 2B before 3B, maybe he could get a few looks as well.
Yoan's a gold glover at 3b right now, don't mess with him.

Easily. Eloy is impressively -16 runs in about 160 games in LF. Vaughn is on pace for about -7 over 160 games. It's position adjusted so you get a ding for starting in LF but Eloy is a very bad LF. Vaughn is probably about average relative to other LF.
Ya, I was pretty against the idea of throwing him out in left just cause I didn't want him to get hurt but he's been more than passable out there. Certainly not great at the moment but considering he's never played the position before he's done pretty well for himself.

Yup. lol.

I am honestly surprised we brought up another pitcher if guys like Foster are barely pitching, and someone like Engel is still under playing restrictions.
I had the same thought. We couldn't even pinch run for Vaughn in the 10th yesterday because the only position player we had available on the bench was Yermin.
-
That's just seriously a incredible series win. If we're fully healthy our lineup would have included 5 guys today that weren't playing. Insane stuff.

Vaughn will be fine, he just needs to keep playing. I'm not 100 percent confident with Yermin but with where we're at right now he needs to keep being run out there too. He's certainly not as bad as he's been lately so hopefully things will average out a bit for him too.

TLR did not come here to throw away a season....Jerry would not do that to his good buddy.
I mean he's currently managing a first place team, maybe we can trade him for a second baseman?

Not trading Lynn/Rodon if they can't be extended is a fireable offense.
There's literally one person in the world who thinks this. One.

It's Hahn's job to think long-term in this situation. They could get a haul for Lynn.
I love the way Nick has been playing and this totally sucks but you're not all the sudden going to punt the season because you lose him. This team despite losing Eloy and Luis has proven to be extremely resilient all season. Unless they completely go into the tank here in the next month you're not trading Lynn or Rodon.

If I'm Hahn, I'm not trading for any rentals. A smart FO would spend the next 4 weeks negotiating with Lynn/Rodon and if they can't reach an agreement with either, then move them. Let the chips fall where they may. This season is cursed and not meant to be.
The Sox have no depth whatsoever and it's being exposed. Rentals would be for if they were mostly healthy.
Oh this post isn't going to go well for you.

Yep the offense needs legitimate reinforcements immediately. No waiting around for others to return, as there’s no telling when the pitching might fade.
Just puts us in such a weird spot now too. I like being as aggressive as anyone but I'm not sure what the hell we can add without taking away from the Major League roster.

I don't want to see a combination including Leury either. I don't want to brush my teeth when Im falling asleep at midnight. That doesn't mean it's not what's best.
The important thing is our pitching is carrying us and Cleveland could conceivably sell. With their awful ownership they could be 3-4 games back and sell J-Ram. Point being, we shouldn't do anything rash.
They'll still somehow win games 1-0 and be a pain in the Sox ass.

Right when he starts to get going he gets hurt, just like Luis. Injury luck f'n blows this season.

I will say, Leury is destroying the ball right now.
Killing the ball this series.

Remember how good we were all feeling when the Sox were creaming the Twins Monday night? Tony took care of that.
Only Tony could take a 16-4 win and make it a huge negative. Really impressive stuff.

How has Rick not had an aneurysm at this point? Spend 3+ years building a roster you think can compete, and this is the guy you have running the show.
When's the last time anyone has heard from him? Not that you're expecting to hear from your GM a lot during the season but I wonder if he's just locked himself in a room somewhere so he doesn't go ballistic on Tony in public.

The absolute arrogance behind his "Lance has a locker. I have an office." Wow. Way to win over the clubhouse, dripping of condescension.
Fuck LaRussa forever and always.
It's insane. TLR is the absolute worst.

Lynn is supposed to be a TLR guy.
He's officially lost the clubhouse.
Was my first reaction. If Lance won’t even have his back then he’s got no one on the roster right now.

Vaughn had some good pitches to hit this game but he got aced on those last 2 that inning. Not doing anything with those.

Come on. If this was really a thing, do you really think the players would be showing up TLR on social media?
Not to mention Tony was just burying Tatis Jr. about this same type of stuff last year. He’s not playing 4D chess here, he’s just an out of touch old man.
