It doesn't, I'm just curious...not sure if you're just being an asshole or really don't know if it matters... -

Why is Lopez wearing a hoodie in the dugout? -
Considering they invited Ventura back as the manager at the end of the 2016 season...I doubt it.

Moncada aced 4 times on low and outside corner looking... That's gotta be a record? Meanwhile we have a player in the minors who has yet to strike out and he's advanced 2 levels. -

He's not THAT bad...would much rather have Hawk in his good years but Benetti isn't unlistenable. He's gotten better actually. Has his moments, definitely not gonna be a HOF announcer, but it's not God-awful. -

I personally want McEwing to be the manager. Loved his energy and enthusiasm as a 3B coach. Butt...he doesn't speak Spanish and that's half the team's first language. Like it or not, this team needs a bilingual manager, and Ricky's leadership skills are far and away better than Robin's. Right now, he's the best man for the job. -

Hopefully Hansen bounces back in AA like Guerro did in AAA. -

Very well could've been a missed hit and run by Anderson. And who would you rather have managing this rebuild? Ventura or Renteria? No other options just those 2. -

See if Lopez can bounce back. He says it's a matter of focus as why he's been struggling lately. Which is ironic because earlier in the season he called the team out...for lack of focus. -
To answer the question of is this rock bottom, I will be 100 percent honest and say this is the least interested I've been in Sox games in probably since I started watching in 04. (Still follow the prospects on the daily and watch Moncada/Anderson/Gio/ReLo highlights.) But, it's just really hard to get interested in this big league team right now. It's the same thing every day almost, then you get the occasional comebacker against the Jays, which I just so happened to be watching. But a die hard fan such as myself starts to become disinterested, even though I know what the future holds for the team, yeah I would say it's rock bottom. Until Eloy and Kopech come up.
-
Agreed. It's already full on the weekends. Last weekend it was packed with Toronto...kind of a nobody team to watch especially with no Donaldson.
-
Agree wholeheartedly with this statement. Best 3B in the league, both in Offense and Defense. Is there another elite level 3B out there that will be available in the next few years? Not like we have any in our system. Unless we do something like move Moncada to 3B and play Madrigal at 2B. Can't count on Burger. If only one of Eloy/Robert/Rutherfod/Basabe were a third baseman.

I think Charlotte should change their name to the "Charlotte Box Checkers" and their new mascot is a dude in a polo and khakis with a clipboard and a pen checking off boxes.
-
Yeah,I think it is silly myself, but if you think about the development of the player to best contribute to the team when he gets here, it kind of makes sense. Palka and Delmonico are up here to fill holes. That is not what Jimenez will be doing. But, I'm not sure how much he can improve defensively...in the outfield...in AAA compared to MLB. Like, it's a corner outfield spot. All you need is an arm and a little bit of reading skills. We already know he has a good arm. Completely different than center.
-
I guess it's true the AA is more competitive than AAA...I bet this same thing will happen with Vlad Jr. for the Jays

Check. Each homerun is a box checked.
