No, why ask? The topic was hard balls hits off pitchers. I'm a huge Whitlock fan.

Sox RBI Leaders 68 Story (123 PAS RISP) 60 Duran (118) 58 Abreu (99) and Devers (105) 49 Rafaela (115) 44 Bregman (81) 36 Romy (54) 33 Narvaez (5)

Hard Hit% 26 Wilson 27 Bernardino 28 Weissert 29 Bello 30 Buehler League Avg 31.5 32 Chapman & Crochet 33 Whitlock 35 Gio Line Drive % 17 Wilson & Crochet 18 Bernardino & Whitlock 19 Chapman League Avg: 19.1% 20 Weissert 21 Buehler 23 Gio

Being at .747 this late in the season, maybe?

Romy could have passed Bregman for the team OPS leader had he just walked that AB! He's been a great help, this year!

He does that often, but those pitches are at other players' belts.

Matz is no door mat, so far. May May fair as well.

You know you suck when you let up 3 ERs is 4.1 IP and see your ERA go down just 0.02- Buehler 5.72 to 5.74! I know Cora gets s ton of grief, especially on game threads, but we all thought our pen would suck, this year, and we have 4 of our best SP'ers on the IL, and yet our staff is doing very well, as a whole.

Not a bad idea, as Narvaez needs some rest.

Early struggled with control: 5BB in 3.2 IP, but allowed no runs and just 2 hits. Jh Garcia hit his 14th dinger and has 2 hits through 6 innings. KC & Grissom are both 1 for 3. Both DSL teams won, today and are now over .500 after pretty bad starts. The Red team pitched a 1 hitter. The Blue team allowed 2 hits.

Rookie fWAR 3.1 Kurtz 293 PAs 2.6 Narvaez 325 2.4 J Wilson 396 2.2 I Collins 279 2.0 D Baldwin 262 1.7 C Durbin 316 1.5 ANTHONY in just 182 PAs Pitchers: 2.0 Patrick 95 IP 1.8 Warren 111 1.4 Cameron 81 & Dreyer 53 10th: Dobbins at 0.9 in 61 IP

Buehler Sandoval Hendriks Paxton (twice) Kluber Richards (Wacha & Hill did okay but missed significant time, when we needed them most.)

DD was certainly decisive: Theo, too.

Maybe I need to start bashing every Sox player!

The replay shows his eyes were closed! LOL! (That homer is still not enough to get him over .600 since his 9 game hot streak.)

He's young, but I agree. Also, is anyone else worried about Crochet leading the league in IP, after being babied last year? He's 4th in batters faced at 565.

Book it! Chapter and verse!

$10M out of $27M- just about the same as Gio's contract.

RF: Abreu- Refsnyder DH: Anthony 1B: Campbell- Romy (both RHBs) 2B: Mayer-Romy or RF: Abreu-Anthony DH: Anthony-Refsnyder 1B: same as above Yoshida's time expired for 2025, IMO, but as long as Mayer is out, he can DH v RHPs.

Yes, JH's wallet.

We are 10th in road OPS. Is that a tree that stands out in a forest? Our offense is good, but it's not 4th or 5th best.

The never ending Story!

Romy and Ref are lefty killers. To those who dislike platoons, take note!

Ooops
