Fernando Tatis , the poster child for a 14 year contract. Injured the first half of the year due to a motorbike accident, out the rest of 2022 and early 2023 . What a FU

 

Be great if all baseball contracts stated that injuries not baseball related will result in said player not being paid while he recuperates.

He may not be an ACE, but he sure is a gamer.

 

Certainly appreciate Eovaldi's work ethic . Without his best stuff , he kept the 'mighty mouse"

Yankees to 2 runs.

 

The real shame is that Red Sox lineup cannot produce in Fenway

SS, any day I get to watch my main man Barnes pitch live is a good day. Get them 1-2-3 Matty.

 

Well, maybe get 1, give up a hit, then hit Aaron Judge . Better than letting Judge hit the ball. Smart move

Your main man is definitely showing signs of improvement.

Fenway is only a hitters' ballpark when the SOX actually have hitters.

 

This display of ineptitude with the bat is not fun. An extremely winnable game is lost as early as the 3rd inning for lack of hitting. Plus it puts the marginal BP throwers in high leverage situations every night

Based on the last 10 seasons, the SOX were scheduled for another last place finish. I'm still a firm believer in 1st year managers when it comes to the SOX.

It is not mentioned much in the threads but Cora's contract is over later this year. There are options for '23 and '24 but they are listed as club options, not Cora's. I think he is gone after October 5

I'd like to believe that, but I'm pretty sure he'll be back in 2023. He gets great PR.
