Rafaela has a shot at being a 5 tool player in the future.

Good arm.

Great glove.

Decent speed.

Decent power.

Batting for average is the one he needs to prove. (.285+ is decent, but can he keep it up?)

[FredLynn]

Pinch hit here

[FredLynn]

That should do it

[moonslav59]

Cubs get Gausman.

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

Sox were due for a WP run.

[moonslav59]

Life's the same

It's Mona- sterio!

He pitched well against them yesterday.  Seeing is believing

The Dodgers are decompensating

[vegasbob]

Dodgers playing like they don't care.

OK with me to just sweep them too

That Dodger reliever will be one of my 3 stars if the Sox win.

I'm waiting for Bres to announce tomorrow night, "We just couldn't line up the players that both sides could agree on". Oh well, he is what he is. We would all die in a forest fire waiting for him to decide which trail we should escape to.

If there is one clear thing about this season it's that Breslow has made a lot of good moves to overcome the injuries to Crochet, Anthony, and Story.  He kept Duran who has came in handy despite his lousy OPS (.600).    Good  leftfielder , leads team in SB's, tied for 2d in rbi's, and 2d in runs scored.  As for the guy they passed on, he plays 1b.  

[FredLynn]

Double steal. Try to get one more

How do you figure they don't care? The Brewers just tied them for best record in the NL.

They don't care because they got Skubal and their checkbook is bigger than yours.

That makes a lot of sense. I guess it's easier than saying the Sox have a good team.

The Red Sox took good advantage of the Dodgers sloppy play/pitching

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

I feel bad for Lou having to share the booth with Orel.

Could be Michael Kay

The Skubal bacteria is formidable.

Actually, Joe Girardi would be worse than either one.

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

Durbin development!

The Sox need to spend their prospects on a good starter and a good reliever. Don't need a catcher and don't need a SS, unless it's Abrams, which ain't gonna happen.

And don't need a LF.

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

That movie Obsession is well worth a watch. My highest recommendation!

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

Get the brooms.

We need a LFer with pop
