Verdugo is on a huge slump. They've never had the 1 and 2 spots hot at the same time.

Well at least Franchy has about 10 more games at first base than Arroyo When was the last time you looked at franchys stat line. If your plan is to start him over dalbec, you forgot how horrendous he really was. It would be like taking three steps back.

If we're going to get back into this one, I fell like it needs to be something from Devers.

It would help if Verdugo got a hit. It's been quite awhile. It’s been a long 24 hours indeed I don't remember him getting a hit. I remember him getting hit.

He'd probably still walk more.

The verdugo “huge slump” and “hasn’t been good all year” stuff is weird
He’s 1 for his last 14 over his last 4 games. The prior 5 he was 8-18
I get that we don’t like losing to the Yankees but cmon guys

Jesus Garrett Cole probably needs to blot A-Rod's lip gloss from his nutsack.

The prior 5 he was 8-18 I get that we don’t like losing to the Yankees but cmon guys I thought he has struggled against the Phils. I think he had a 2 hit game. Remember his 0 for 5 in the 1 run loss before the break. I wouldn't say he's been bad the whole season. I think he's been good, just not as great as I was hoping for. I think he can pick it up and push toward .300 or at least I hope so.

I like the guy, not all that worried that he'll produce eventually, but he's been struggling a bit for a little while.

Perez should not have started that inning He gave up a bunt and a squibber? Sometimes the bad guys make a play or get lucky. No one need be blamed (well, Him, if you dare).

(insert a constant stream of curse-words here) (guttural screams) We should not be losing to this version of the Yankees. This is a disgrace. I'm done with Bobby Dalbec, and Renfroe is turning back into a pumpkin. Taillon has not pitched that well, we've just made him look like Bob Gibson. It has not been the Yankees for scrubs by and large who have done the offensive damage tonight. The Yankees do have some qualified major leaguers left on the roster. It is the shortcircuiting Sox offense that is keeping this from being a competitive game. There is time left.

Strike 3 to Devers was literally at his eyes.

Seriously, F these umps. I was listening Friday and Joe Castig was praising Jeff Nelson, but I hate the man right now.

I'm not terribly worried about him, I think he will be fine.

Fine, maybe even good, but a piece not a feature. I wouldn’t be shocked if this year was not out of line in his career.
