Honestly, does Xander need contacts? Pitchers figured out in June that he cant lay off breaking balls away and he's been struggling to adjust since.

Man, might as well play Hernandez.... Bogaerts is useless. That will never happen. And I can't even argue that any manager really should do it. But, really, I would applaud it. I really like Xander, but these ABs look kind of like what I would look if I picked up a bat and faced live pitching.

Is he having sight problems? He is in a 2-month slump

Xander looks like Sandoval up there.
Swinging at all the junk.
Well except that he's not morbidly obese.

Alternatively to Hernandez, you could go with Shaw at 3B and Holt at SS... Sad that it's come to us even pondering this.

For the love of God, I've never seen someone check swing so much...

Worst case scenario....Brock's great game means nothing and we lose......and JF keeps him there for the rest of the playoffs and he does nothing. Credit to him for a great game tonight, and I still believe the Cleveland catcher blocked his entrance to home plate and therefore obstructed. He definitely blocked the plate but I feel like you need to force the umpire to make that call. Buster Posey's knee be damned if the catcher is blocking the plate you should be able to blow him up. But the rule is there because they don't want collisions and injuries. I think they umpires and, our coaches, just missed it.

Imagine what the score would be if XB or JBJ had at least a hit in this game.

I know why the rule is there my point is that if the umpires are too incompetent to make the call you need to get rid of the rule.

Why do we never get a replay of the check swings though? I wanna see a replay I saw a replay, he swung. Looks bad.

Why is Shaw even on the roster? If he's not gonna PH for Bogaerts in a big spot like that then he has no use.

Ive never seen a professional make the same mistake so many times over and over like Bogaerts does when he chases a breaking ball down and away.

Please score at least 1 run.
Don't waste this bullpen effort.

Need Bradley to somehow get on, then let Leon bunt him into scoring position (or to 3rd).

omg I love that shot of Papi and Marco yeah, me too. I bet Ortiz was telling him his ass should've been to 3rd on that wild pitch. Would've forced the infield in.
