Yankees should sell. I'll take Soto and Judge My man. No. Never. Our traitors go to them. We don't ever want someone wearing that uni put on the scared Red Sox game gear.

Judge just watched three pitches down the center. What was he looking for??? Men fear Everyday KJ. It is well known.

I don't get why not? 6 out of 7 losses (assuming they don't come back). Houck and Crawford are in uncharted territory in IP. Bello and Pivetta are way too inconsistent to trust. Criswell is Criswell. Paxton has good numbers with really ugly peripherals. The bullpen is tired. Casas is not close. The lineup is fine-ish, but they need a RHH. They need multiple moves to improve, but I don't know if it'll be enough or if they'll want to invest that kind of capital to fix it. They've done this the last few years now. Of course Rafaela hits a 2 run shot to pull within 1. they got to this year. The history of the franchise demands it.

the whole Hamilton thing started when they started playing Westbrook and giving Yoshida more at bats. That was the problem.

Tough spot to put Kelly in. He isn't the hitter he is cuz of hype. Bernardino gave it up.
Game / Season isn't over because of that 1 pitch. Melodramatic over the edge here.

Not a fan. Was annoyed with him at the end of last year, and over the last 2 years. Didn't return to much on our investment over that time. Will hope for a better outcome over the next few months. Also, remind me again why it is good that "it doesn't cost too much" ? I mean, not for nothing, but we are under the LT and have a pretty good ballclub. We have a couple of MVP candidates, a pretty solid staff, and the competition has its own warts. I am kind of ready to retire the working on the margains because (fill in the blank). Not privy to what costs what at the deadline, but more than willing (wanting) the club to take risk. You can put me on the record, I think that attitude should be shelved and / or discarded outright. Our FO, and fans, should have higher standards. This isn't working the margins. The MLB pitching staff depth is suddenly in a shambles both in the rotation and in the bullpen. Paxton's fastball has been garbage this year, but it looked good against them in his last start and they probably have faith in Bailey to try and figure it out. If they can get an MLB starter, even if he's a legit #5, in exchange for a DSL flyer, you make that trade every day and twice on Sunday. If he's not, then they didn't give up much and can move on. I'm not sure that this precludes them from doing anything else. They could easily go and get another starter given the concerns about Houck's and Crawford's workloads and whether Jeckyl or Hyde Pivetta is going to show up on a given day. For what it's worth on Bolivar, he's a decent lottery ticket from the DR program, but I asked someone in the know for who some of the top guys down there have been this year and got a list of 8 hitters. Bolivar wasn't one. Easily could've slipped this person's mind but like, it's not like he was their top guy. Maybe he turns into Gregory Santos but he's more likely somewhere closer to Noelberth Romero. I don't get being upset about this deal. would not classify my attitude as upset, just not a fan, for the reasons I stated. I would disagree this isn't working on the margains, but that may be subjective. I don't have all the information about what or who is avialable, or at what cost. The fact he didn't cost that much suggests to me that it is on the margains, vis-a-vis the Dodgers didn't expect to get much more of an offer. It certainly isn't a major trade. Maybe this deal gets in the way of a better one closer to the deadline. They made their choice, hope it works out. He isn't that good a pitcher. We have to be honest a bit here. This move takes a roster spot that could be used for any other pitcher that may have available fo trade. Some of my commentary was directed to reading the posts, that seemed to me be much of the same narrative that has existed for the past few yeas. Let's not spend too much prospect capital, or money, whatever it may be. With apologies, I just don't want to subscribe to that anymore.

.500 magnet is pulling hard. We got to escape it's magnetic field once we get home. We will. I believe in this team, been a lot of good games.
The Dodger series and this....games were coin flips on most. We just the wrong side of the coin a few times.

Westbrook just should not be on this team. Feel for the guy, happy the Sox could make his dream a reality, but enough is enough.
Hate being that way with players.
