Extend IKF's contract or trade him while he's hot.

Trade quick, he's on a short fuse

Bulletin just in--- Abreu is not a great hitter. He chased 2 balls before bouncing to pitcher.  

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

Just one big hit away, which will also be the title of this season's video.

[iortiz]

The story of this season right there.

He's never been accused of that.

This one should not be on Suarez alone. Weissert let 2 inherited runners score and Guerrero gave it away allowing 2 runs. 

Abreu's crappy AB in the 9th didn't help

Did you ever see the movie Clockwork Orange? There's a scene that describes how it's done.

Of course I saw it. Great flick. Now I understand how people watch the FLOPS. I can't do it unless I have toothpicks holding my eyelids open.

Agreed. One guy shouldn't get all the discredit.

It was a great flick and the last good movie Malcolm McDowell was ever in.

Red Sox falling to 8-18 at not so friendly Fenway is total embarrASSment.🤭🙈🤮.

Ranger’s last 4 starts innings pitched.

4.0

5.1

4.1

5.0

He hasn’t given up many runs in that span, but he’s got to go longer than that.

He looked weak after WBC but started to be effective. Your IP list shows that isn't helping much.

But look at it this way. Only 4 more seasons after this one.

Would not hesitate to make him available in a bigger trade

Tayron Guerrero is simply not a Major League pitcher.  And Tracy keeps bringing him in for close games and watching him push the lead just past the Sox late rally.

I’d rather see Ryan Watson than Guerrero…

Building him up as trade bait. Look at that power arm !

No great hitter has ever done that before…

Blue Thunder?

Also, Clockwork Orange was a cheesy adaptation at best.  And when ranking Malcolm McDowell movies, it falls behind Tom and Jerry Meet Sherlock Holmes…

Good ol' Vaughn Grissom tearing it up for LAA. .645 OPS but 15 RBIs and 2 HRs in just iver 100 ABs on another terrible team.

Grissom did hit a GS tonight for Angels.  

There really must be something wrong when players get to Boston
