You guys just jinxed Devers too with all the compliments on his glove.

Our usual offence for Chris Sale pitching day is back

Sale is so nasty. Please score some runs for him.

I thought he moved into that pitch, but it was just the natural motion of his body preparing to swing.

Umpire called Perez safe before he even touched the plate.

1) catch the ball 2) apply the tag
Can’t do part two until you do part one.

CVaz is -.3 bWAR. He's 27 years old...not good.

CVaz is -.3 bWAR. He's 27 years old...not good. And they have him a contract extension.

CVaz is -.3 bWAR. He's 27 years old...not good. Stop it with the facts. Nobody cares. They just extended him, ergo he is awesome. (actually I like him as a player but I’m bothered like almost everyone here that it seems we will never see what Swihart can do).

CVaz is -.3 bWAR. He's 27 years old...not good. He's easily my most overrated Sox player. His overall defensive game isn't impressive (even though he excels at throwing and framing). He also can't hit for any power.

He also can't hit for any power. Do we know he is a good pitch framer? I’m pretty sure he was when he first came up. I’ve got no idea if that is still the case.

Remember how irritated this entire message board was when Daniel Nava could not get in a game though it was clear he should be playing? That’s how I feel about Swihart though I concede the case for Nava was probably more compelling.

Is Swihart really that terrible behind the plate that they would rather roll out sub .200 batters than give him at least a look?

He has even stole even a couple of strikes in this game.

What a play by Xander. I was about to say that Sale was getting BABIP'd to death here.

Another horrible play by Vazquez. Let the guy steal second with Sale pitching.
Dude, you have cost the Sox 2 runs defensively in a low scoring game.

It’s not normal ... agree with everyone on CVaz ... but I do wonder about Swihart: Cora and Farrell don’t appear to have much in common but the fact that they both don’t believe Swihart’s a big league catcher Way to go Moreland!

Devers hit it hard enough to get it out, but didn't have the angle to get it out. So close though.
