Cecchini seems to be improving lately or does he just seem to have good lines every time I look? Has anyone seen him lately in person? 2 for his last 25 coming into today. He's far from figuring it out IMO. [br Thank you

Jesus that guy has a 17 K/9 since being called up. Give us one of those.

Kind of agree with what Jerry is saying. Not sure how that delivery is legal.

The best SS in the AL...not in the All-Star game.
What a joke.

if Steven Wright hadn't been demoted, there's a chance Xander doesn't come through there.
Just sayin'.

Capps can't find the strike zone either. Unfortunately he would still be our third best short reliever in all likelihood, depending on what you think of Ogando (I'm low on him).

Kind of agree with what Jerry is saying. Not sure how that delivery is legal. I agree.., save the googly stuff for cricket. Capps takes a hop and then lands about 18 inches beyond the rubber before releasing the ball. I don't understand how MLB can rule that is a legal pitch.

Just a nice piece of hitting by Xander. Still trying to figure out how that's not a balk by Capps if his foot is (way) off the rubber when he releases the ball.

Legal or not, Xander don't care, Xander just rake.

Travis Shaw is 3-3 tonight. Sam Travis is 2-4 with a double and triple for the Sea Dogs. Am I the only one hoping they end up platooning at some point in the future for the Sox, just so I can call them Sam Travis Shaw? It's like an assassin's name. Sam Travis Shaw, the Baseball Assassin. Oh, that's it, I'm copyrighting that right now, make some T-shirts.

Just voted for Bogaerts at least 100+ times after his hit.
Screw it. If the people who are in charge don't want him there, we must get him there to spite them.

I think I could get behind Xander holding his arms up in the shape of an 'X' after each big hit as if he were a professional Wrestler. Bet that would get him into an All-Star game.

If Randy Johnson had used Capps move he would have been able to hand the ball to the catcher.
Xander says all star I am.

It's too bad Mookie and Bogaerts didn't come out like this. We'd be in a much better position. We're playing great ball now. I'm praying Porcello just gets lucky tomorrow. Miami has an awful lineup without Stanton, so there's hope.

9 for our last 12 has a good ring to it. Who's pitching tomorrow?
Eh 8 for 12 ain't bad either.
