Jays shut out, 2-0, by five Rays' pitchers.
Yanks and A's are leading.

Defense is awful. I could go the rest of my life without seeing Schwarber at 1st base and be happy. I guess you can't just plug and play someone there after all. In 2022 it will be Schwarber or JD, but there is not room for both. ...Or perhaps neither. The Red Sox, as many teams, have type-cast the DH position to serve as the landing spot for a slow non-athlete who can obviously hit. I'd really like to see the DH be filled by someone like a Devers, Dalbec, Xander or some other acquisition that can man a position in the field passably, that possesses average to above average speed. I'm not alone in thinking that the whole infield defense needs to overhauled. Replacements have to be plus defenders that can get to balls, with above average offensive abilities.

In 2022 it will be Schwarber or JD, but there is not room for both. JDM figures to opt out of his last year at around $19M. He probably can get at least 2yr/$30m in the open market? I would guess Schwarber can get at least 3-4 years in the open market after the season he’s had? I don’t think Schwarber is in a Sox uniform next season.

This offense makes every starter look like Don Drysdale.

This offense makes every starter look like Don Drysdale. That's an exaggeration. But not by much.

That would be - as Eck would say - a beautiful thing. The RS would make the QO and, assuming that a team signed him before next year's draft, get a pick for him.

I will be surprised, and happy, if JD opts out at this point.

I can't remember a worse defensive Red Sox team. Really, Hunter?

I can’t remember this many dropped outfield flies ever, maybe Hanley? That one was so routine as well…

Renfroe has been a butcher lately. This team is butchering my heart every night.
