Nothing, but nothing, will block Mr. Moncada from claiming second base at that point when management feels he's ready for the promotion.

Nice 1-2 punch at the moment at the top of the order with Leury & Yolmer. They are getting it done.

QUOTE (Joshua Strong @ May 16, 2017 -> 09:22 PM) If you think the Sox are bad now, just wait till next year We can handle it. Management & ownership have conditioned us to handle bad during the past decade or so, if you haven't noticed.

QUOTE (Scoots @ May 16, 2017 -> 08:27 PM) Man, these 20 plus pitch first innings from our starters is getting real old Improvement in the second. Up to 37 pitches now, which isn't too bad.

QUOTE (flavum @ May 15, 2017 -> 10:04 PM) Todd Frazier is hitting .175, but he's our third basemen, and he's going to turn it around real soon and lead us to the playoffs, by golly. Go Sox yay! He hustles and is a leader in the clubhouse, though!

Hawk throwing Jerry Manuel some shade!

Fun watching Yolmer and Leury these days.

A-BREU-BOMB!!

57 pitches through three innings by Pelfrey. Not great, but giving his team a chance to win thus far.

QUOTE (CaliSoxFanViaSWside @ May 15, 2017 -> 08:24 PM) Pelfrey goes to a 3-2 count on all 3 batters but gets them all . 21 pitch inning...

QUOTE (elrockinMT @ May 14, 2017 -> 03:30 PM) I would tell you to look beyond stats and learn his to appreciate the game of baseball and how hard it is to succeed everyday. Understand its complexities. I don't have time to listen to people criticize all the time. It's as if folks think players struggle because they want to fail Lol - STOP!!

The Sox were definitely "pretty in pink" in the 8th!!

Who needs Yoan when you have Yolmer!!

Now one more to get Q off the hook, and two more for the win!

C'mon, Todd! One time!

And the plot thickens...

The capable defensive Garcia saving the incapable defensive Garcia. Geeeesshhh!

Leury continuing to impress!

The dreaded Kansas City special.

QUOTE (Jose Paniagua @ May 6, 2017 -> 10:15 PM) Matt Cassidy‏ @Matt_Cassidy 2h2 hours ago More Micker Adolfo has made big leaps. Looks much better on both sides of the ball. Something has clicked there. Well, if the 20 year-old Adolfo has perhaps turned a corner and is putting himself on a projectable path to a high ceiling MLB career, and if the team is able to sign the 19 year-old Luis Robert, that could be the makings of some kind of outfield a few years down the road.

QUOTE (Sox-35th @ Apr 29, 2017 -> 11:13 PM) Because the goal of baseball isn't to be a winner for one year in a decade. The goal is to build talent in your farm system so that you have young, cost controlled talent. THEN you use free agency to fill the holes and try to win the World Series for a wide open window of time. It pains me how simple you are sometimes. Rebuilding is in because rebuilding works. The "going for it" nonsense works once every five years if you're lucky. And you're damn right no one cares about this locker room. We know what this is, and we're still not 23-10 yet (not that it mattered last year) Sounds almost exactly how Hahn and Kenny described how they were going to navigate the "open window" of the past three or four years when the team already had a core of "young, cost controlled talent". Perhaps you can advise them on how to better execute the "THEN you use free agency" part so we see fewer Adam LaRoche, Jimmy Rollins, and Austin Jackson types and more players of a Yoenis Cespedes caliber the next time around.

QUOTE (Sox-35th @ Apr 29, 2017 -> 09:47 AM) You can, actually. It's called the ecstasy of being a contender Well sign me up for a summer of that!!

Ahhhhh...the ecstasy of WINNING! You can't beat it!!

I thought FIRST PLACE teams were buyers at the trade deadline, not sellers!!

QUOTE (Thad Bosley @ Apr 28, 2017 -> 06:36 PM) It is good to hear that home run call again! X 2!
