Unfortunately, the more expendable he is to the Sox the less valuable he is in a trade.

With this new guy Garcia and provided he lives up to some of his advanced billing, the Sox have 5 outfielders not counting Ref, Yoshida, Eaton, Nixon, Kennedy, and Eisenhower.

An ok 7th for Crochet

😁!!!!!

Who pitches the 8th?

[vegasbob]

As opposed to Crochet and Chapman, I hope Breslow is considering extending Yoshida to 2033

Weissert  or Hicks

[Maxbialystock]

Hate the GIDP, but he hit that solid.  

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

Hammy getting some love today.

[Maxbialystock]

I don't know how many times I've told Alex not to play that bum Hamilton.

Weissert. Lead ain't big enough for Hicks.

What a difference having a top 5 SP'er and best closer in MLB makes, huh?

Our offense has been struggling, but they've had ups and downs, all season long. I'm hoping we can get on an upswing, when it matters the most.

Hammy forgives you.

There's a rumor the Sox medical staff may extend his legs.

[moonslav59]

Narvaez & DHam with 4 hits from the 8-9 slots is nice to see.

Our depth has been a big asset, all year long.

We've gone 12 starters deep in the rotation, our pen has been top 5 without Slaten for most of the year and getting nothing from Hendriks and converted SP'ers.

[d-money]

Need a shutout inning here. 

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

By wearing #99, Judge is saying I'm twice as good as Maris.

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

Chapman and Whitlock. All others pay cash.

[vegasbob]

Has Weissert ever thrown a clean inning ?

[d-money]

Ridiculous. Get out of this. 

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

Ugliest swing in MLB. Ever.

[moonslav59]

Weissert has been pretty good, most of the season. He's gotta get through this!

[vegasbob]

Bringing in Wilson is a mistake AC.

The thrower has no command/ control and this is a key inflection point 

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

I'm guessing Matz is closing.

Just as I said . nothing but blazing strikes. Love the guy

[d-money]

Nice job . Go Sox!!!

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

Nice job as Yankem fans are still booing Mr Burns.

Stanton is owed $29M, $25M and has a $25M option for '28 with a $10M buyout. Essentially, it's $64M/2 or $$79M/3. His tax line is $25M, but MIA is still paying $3M a year for the next 3 seasons. That makes it $55M/2 or $70M/3 and a tax hit of $22M.

You think NY would take Yoshida and Fitts for Stanton & $5M a year?

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

Michael Kay is now talking about the Lyle for Cater trade.

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

Anthony made that a productive out.

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

Timely hitting by Duran.
