I would really like to see X start hitting with authority again.... haven't really seen the same power since the injury... can't afford a redo of last year He hit a pretty good oppo field 2b last night IIRC. Yeah..... I see the hard contact picking up lately so that is very optimistic

Wow. Holt has really taken a nosedive. Batting .119 in his last 15 games.

We’re stuck with Holt for 4 more games because they dl’ed Kinsler.
2 runs on 6 hits and 3 walks, thats atrocious.

It’s so cool that the Red Sox are down 2 runs in the fourth inning and my first thought is, “in what inning will they take the lead?”

Jerry, I’m assuming you’re a Deadhead (I’m not a huge fan myself). If so, condolences on the anniversary of Jerry Garcia’s death.

I went to 20 or so shows (first one in Syracuse 1984), I had friends who took it to a different level. I thought Jerry was a helluva guitar player, love hearing him play to this day, and it was sad when he went away. Thanks brother.

Players’ weekend? Ugh. Eyewash. Yeah who needs fun? Bleh. Fun? Right. It is more like the shameless generation of yet another gimmick jersey to push on fan bases.

Great small ball between Nunez and Holt to tie the game. Great job running up the pitch count.

I guess Brock is reading the bad things you guys are saying about him.

Sure, there is a certain amount of ignorance....and a certain of amount of truth...like a lot of things in life. What is funny to me, though, is you could literally put him a high school hallway and he would probably purposefully / accidentally bump into a nerdy brainiac (not saying that is right to do).

Brock is just playing his way off this team for the playoffs.

Hot take...don’t pitch to Justin Smoak.

Well just chalk this up as a dreadful start for Porcello.

Hot take...don’t pitch to Justin Smoak. He has some pretty good hit tools for sure. Agreed

In fairness, every sabermetric guy I’ve seen looks like he last played in tee ball, doing half games in left field.
