Was that sarcasm about Morel or did he make a good play?

He took away a probable double play ball from Alexei by diving for a ball that was not his ball to take. Then he booted it, of course.

If a 3B can step in front of a SS to make a play you do it. It was certainly his ball to play.

Not if you have to leave your feet. The entire purpose is to field the ball more quickly than it would take to reach the ss. If you have to dive and you still don't have a good chance to field the ball, and your ss is amongst the best in the league, then no, it's not your ball to play.

Which is one of the biggest differences between the Sox and that team in 1st place

 

Completely accurate...hey, at least the guy in the front office that said having lefties in the lineup wasn't important because of our possible postseason match-ups can't say he never said that thanks to The Club.

This offense has been horrid the last 3 games, they look completely uninterested, looking to just pack it in. Why not just crown the Twins AL Central champs again, unbelievable....

 

You have to admire the Sox winning 7 games in a row on the road, but it was like as soon as they lost a game and the Twins won that day, their bubble completely burst. We started seeing a lot of acceptance from the players with regards to what was likely to happen. Not that I blame them really, as the Twins are an absolute machine right now.
