Joe West giveth and Joe West taketh away.

What are the fans chanting

Nobody been good except for Kopech. Hendricks and Ruiz shaky. Everyone has been trash. Not many options unfortunately - need to aquire somebody.

Sox at home vs sox on teh road is night and day. They look much more confident at home.

Thats pretty close to me.

Considering that Collins has played 2/3 the amount of games that Yasmani has, their offense production isn't *that* far apart. Neither have been great. I said "arguably". I'd rather have Yasmani but its not that much of a strech, which was my point. Take the stick out of your butt.

Your standards are too high. Lower them.

Arguably he's been more productive offensively than the guy in front of him. I'd like a stud BACKUP catcher who is good offensively, defensively too. They don't exist. Otherwise they'd be starting. Collins is about the best there is.

I think, for a backup catcher, he has been great. I hold backups to low standards I guess. Look at everyone the sox threw behind the plate pre-2020. This is just fine.

His defense has been mediocre but I like his hustle.

Collins has been great and a pleasant surprise all year long. Not his fault Giolito bounced the ball into the dirt before it even got to home plate. All bets are off when that happens, sometimes the ball bounces weirdly.

He looks like he's in pain.

Still in 3rd inning... gonna be a loooong game.

I call it like I see it

"Obviously", thanks. Maybe you should be a coach on the team. Don't turn this into a TLR thread, thanks.

Yoan is loafing around

Whew.. That was scary.

Sox saw the cardinals doing it and wanted to get in on the fun.

What the hell was that AB. Looked like he made up his mind that he was going to swing at everything no matter how bad it was.

This is unreal. Looks like a little league team self destructing.

I don't like the bunt here. In fact I hate it. Guy is on the ropes and you give him an out.

Everything the Sox have put in play has been well hit except for Abreu's bouncer. Good sign.

Yeah. The crowd sounds very Cub-like tbh.

Look at that box score lol

Wow thought that was gone. So did jason and the crowd
