Put Campbell at 1st, have Rafaela, Mayer and Story figure out 2B/3B/SS rotation, stick Anthony in the outfield for his BAT. I don't want to hear Rafaela is an elite defender so he can't be moved. The bottom line is Rafaela playing CF has gotten us NOTHING. I'll take whatever incremental loss we have in losing Rafaela playing center field against the positive offensive output that Anthony can provide the team that's slumping badly. Who wants to keep watching this crap for next 100 games? Go young...put the guys in place....that means Anthony in the outfield, who says he can't play center field anyway? Mayer at short, Story should be the one getting moved. His defensive metrics are no longer outstanding. Figure out what to do with Houck, Crawford, Fitts, Dobbins. Who's starting? Who's the long reliever? Can Kutter be a 8/9th inning arm?

Cora ready to play Campbell at 1B. Maybe they'll bring up Anthony.

CORA....WE GOT TO PLAY BETTER!

Here's why Anthony should be called up to the majors. Avg. OPS. Hits/AB Player .120 .280 9-75 in May, Campbell .146 .387 7-48 in 2025, Wong .151 .404 13-84 in May, Story (if you go back little further, he's 15-118 .197 .540 14-71 in 2025, Hamilton .213 .651 19-89 in May, Abreu .221 .605 38-172 in 2025, Rafaela (Gold Glover, batting 9th) Does Cora sees this? You have Mayer, our 2nd best minor league prospect, hitting clean up today. But apparently Anthony has more to learn in AAA. Let's hear all the excuses why you can't make this happen. You are losing the fan base vey quickly. We don't want to watch Story hit. He's been hurt, he tries....blah blah blah He makes frekin $21M. He gets no sympathy from me. .

Big question is can he enter 5th inning with less than 80 pitches thrown. That's all I need to know. Someone in the pen will blow it. It doesn't help that we'll only be up by one, at best. Ugh. What a bunch of losers. Starts with Brez and Cora, then Story.

I hope they keep losing. What a freakin idiots. Best hitter in the minors. We act like we din't need him. They can all get fired.

We have Abreu Campbell Story Rafaela all slumping. You can add Hamilyon and Wong also.

When you are led to believe Story and Rafaela are good players on the roster you have problems.

Just so everyone knows, Ralaela has play 60 games at 3B in the minors. Sure we want his Gold Glove in the center field. That was before Bregman, that was before Story's pathetic performance at short on top of Casas being out for the year. We need all the bullets we can muster. One of those is Anthony. Desperate time calls for desperate measures. Get rid of/bench Story. Every game you waste is another step backwards for the organization.

With all due respect to all the nay sayers content with leaving Anthony in the minors should think what this is doing to Anthony. Do you think he wants to be a Red Sox? No freakin' way he's signing extension. Many here think the outfield is just fine. And maybe it is but you're ignoring the fact that it can be better. The odd man out can play another position (eg Rafaela) or be traded to acquire additional pitching help. Our lineup overall is pathetic. You can't recoup sunken costs. We made a big mistake acquiring both Yoshida and Story. Why is Story in a slump? Well hell, he wasted his prime years injured. He's unable to recover what little magic he has left in his bat. If I'm Anthony, I'm stewing playing AAA while my buddies are getting promotion. Cora and Brez are worried about hurting the feelings of grown up such as Devers, Story, etc. They should be more concerned about Anthony. Quit telling us why you can't bring up Anthony. What's going to change? Are you seriously hoping that an outfielder gets hurt as one of the options as your plan going forward? If you can't find a way to bring up Anthony, then the organization is more incompetent that I ever imagined. Why don't you use your stinking analysists to find a way to bring up Anthony. Hell he's in everyone's top 3 prospects in the majors. Very disappointing.

Whitlock has become pretty useless. He gets hit. That's the bottom line. We used the excuse that he's much better reliever.......sure he is.

If it's a complete sell off I would start with Chapman. Then Buehler and Giolito. I would find a way to get Anthony up to the majors. The goal is to shed some payroll and acquire young talent. Maybe a blockbuster with Duran

We have in our lineup today for 3 4 5 spots a rookie, a rookie, and a 2nd yr player.. Next 30 games are critical....if we fall off the cliff.. I'd say sell off. Find a way to get Anthony up in the major.

I'm going to pat myself on the back for calling out Newcomb being let go. Designated for Assignment. Called it.!!!!1

They were talking about the Orioles. Santander and Burnes.

Watching Mayer greeting his new teammates, the kid's a big guy. Taller, thicker.

Sox fans are elated!!!!!!! Maybe this is the jolt we need....go on a streak.

Reminder Age......Name......Team Control 25 Crochet 7 yrs of team control 25 Fitts 6 yrs of team control 25 Dobbins 6 yrs of team control 26 Bello 6 yrs of team control 28 Houck 3 yrs of team control 29 Crawford 3yrs of team control

Story is 12-71 in May, hitting .169 and OPS of .438 BEFORE TODAY'S GAME.

Story is worthless. I hope Cora sits his ass on the bench tonight, play Mayer at short and Campbell at 2B. Enough is enough. He is absolutely killing this team on offense.

I'm saying Necomb will be DFA'd.

Mayer is not on 40 man roster. Bregman's not going on 60 day IL.

Here's my wild prediction. Newcomb will be let go after the game to make space for Mayer.

NESN announcers said everyone was congratulating him after game 1 of his double headed. Apparently he will be in Fenway this evening.
