We miss Leury and Engel badly right now. At least when those 2 are healthy TLR can't put Goodwin at center and play Mendick 3 times a week. 

He was playing Goodwin in CF when Engel was healthy (he threw him in RF a few times). I think Hamilton is the only guy that TLR religiously put in CF over Goodwin.

I don't know how they can watch him play CF and think, "oh yeah he's good out there".

Goodwin is a DH with the athleticism to play CF

Goodwin has been exposed over and over as a terrible defensive CF but we keep playing him there. It’s hard to win with him in CF.  He has also sucked offensively lately.  With a Golden Sombrero yesterday.  Don’t we have anyone better than Goodwin in our system?

TLR has not been a good manager of this team.  He has been exasperating often with inexplicable bad decisions.  Goodwin should not be in this lineup.

Rays announcers roasting TLR for not having TA in the lineup today with a sinker baller like Keuchel on the mound.  They say TA would have made 2 plays missed by Mendick who has poor range.  They said smart move would have been to rest TA tomorrow instead. I agree.

Yeah and they have as much information of how TA is feeling physically as you.

If his name isn't Robert, Engel, or Hamilton I don't want to see him in CF.  Also, please rest one player at a time when necessary.  These games with multiple players being rested are non-competitive and alarmingly boring.

Well Hamilton and Engel are out and Robert is getting a day off so who's next?

I am aware that Hamilton and Engel are out...therefore Robert should be playing today.  Not that hard to figure out IMO.

Just tuned in, is it just me getting the vibe that the Sox basically are giving this game away?

Pretty much. We've had at least 3 of these in the last 3 weeks. 

It's why playing with a 10+ game lead kind of sucks.
