Damn! Another sharply hit out.

The speedster on second with the tying run!

As bad as it sounds, it might be Santana or bust.

A walk would have been nice, but I think they are against Vaz's religion, or something.

Bobby Dee is the only Sox player allowed to hit a non solo HR.

Damn! With a man on first, it means we can't hit a dinger!

Yup! Robo UMPS, Now!

I guess, if we want to be realistic, the best we can hope for is a solo blast.

Let's see if Kimbrel still knows how to throw gas on a fire.

Is there ever a game, he doesn't walk the first guy. At least this time, e economized his pitch count by only taking 4 pitches for the walk.

Okay, now. It's Schwarb time!

Restless.

All finals. Yanks lose. Jays lose. Rays lose. Time for the White Sox to lose!

Excuse me, but did we just score after our opponent made a mistake?

Gotta start hitting these hard hit balls where people ain't standin'!

...and it's still fun seeing the Rays lose. Knowing they can lose.

Grand slam by Tigers (Schoop) vs Rays (7-4 Tigers)

We may lead the league in solo blasts.

Santander with a 3 run job for the O's- now up on the Jays 6-3 (7th). Mets still up 8-2 on Yanks (7th). Tigers down 4-3 to the Rays but have men on 2nd and 3rd with 1 out- top of the order up. Now, let's rally!

Yorke now on base 4 out 4 (2 BBs +3B)! Casas got on base 4 out of 4 (2 BBs + a 2B) Potts 1-3 with 3 RBI Murphy 6IP 2H 0ER 0BB 11K Dearden with his 23rd dinger Walter 5IP 2H 0ER 3BB 8K

I'm not locked in on any of the names I listed, especially Simmons. Correa would be a great plus, but I doubt we'd move Bogey to a new position- we'd trade him. His value is at SS, despite my beliefs about his defense.

I would not trade Bogey, unless we got a quality pitcher (I never said "mid level"), so the loss of offense at SS would be evened up or outweighed by improved pitching and defense at the most important defensive position outside of catcher. Scherzer would be a short term signing, so we'd basically be putting off for a few years another big choice while giving our kids time to find a role. Yes, Iglesias would be expensive but not close to Syndergaard or Gausman. What's your plan for Dalbec? You want Schwarber at DH after JD. You want Casas at 1B. You want Devers at 3B. You seem to go out of your way to squeeze our fine young player out of a role on our team, going forward. What's your plan to improve our D? Sign Schwarber and keep all our clown defenders where they are? What happens, if Bogey bolts for nothing? What happens when Bloom (rightly) refuses to outbid everyone for Syndergaard or Gausman- neither are the type you wait years for and pounce with large and long deals. It's easy to just think Duran, Casas, Houck, Whitlock and the rest of our youth is going to pull a Betts-Bogey-JBJ trifecta, but it may not happen. We do have 4 big guys coming off the books after '22: Bogey, JD, Eovaldi and Kike. There's room for them and some FA's, too. BTW, I know Bloom won't do this, but I'd like to see some of these type moves being made, and yes, we may need to get "creative."

...and walking the 9 guy. ...and leadoff walks.

Mets up on Yanks 8-2.

Once again, a walk to the nine hitter bites us in the ass.
