As long as Robert is back tomorrow for the start of the Cubs series, I don’t hate this lineup. Hopefully Grandal will be back tomorrow too.

I thought he did a pretty good job defensively tonight. And he’ll probably get better on both sides of the ball if he even gets somewhat consistent playing time.

Dunning started 11 games in AA in 2018. Collins played 122 games in AA in 2018. I’m guessing they probably worked together at least a few times, even though it was a long time ago at this point.

Then why is he on this team? Because they never use him as the DH either.

I wonder if Collins will catch tonight. One because he probably has more familiarity with Dunning than McCann does, and two, tomorrow is a day game and Giolito is pitching.

Which starting pitchers would even be available from those teams?

I don’t even have any reaction when Moncada looks like he’s hurt because it happens so often

I’m guessing the Robert thing is just precautionary considering that he said he’s fine, as well as the fact that it’s late in the game and the Sox are winning.

I wonder if Skubal will be on a pitch limit tonight. If he is, hopefully the Sox hitters are patient and work the counts to knock him out early. Same goes for Mize when they face him tomorrow.

Encarnacion has zero bat speed now

Do we think Keuchel is actually hurt?

Offense is still non existent

Mazara is absolutely worthless

Wainwright isn’t even that good today. The Sox just need to be patient and string some hits together

I actually don’t hate the idea of doing a bullpen game considering it will only be 7 innings. Have Foster throw 2, Detwiler throw 3, and see where you’re at after that.

Give me Stroman. He’s not as good as Bauer but he’d be a solid #3 or #4 starter for this team. I also think his personality and energy would fit well in the clubhouse.

How does one extra day make that much of a difference in this situation?

It was one game. Come on man.

Why is Foster still in this game?

Foster reminds me of Jesse Crain

He desperately needs a day off

Moncada’s body language kind of sucks right now.

It’s not a good sign when one of the big free agent signings is saying this

Sox are down by 2. Game over.

I hope those games get postponed because the Sox could use a few days off, both in terms of giving guys that are injured more time to return without missing any games and giving the healthy players like Eloy a few days off since they are struggling mightily.
