The SOX best hitter being out of the line-up again doesn't help. The SOX worst hitter not batting 9th doesn't help. The line-up could be worse. It could be Pearce, JBJ, and Leon batting 7-9. UGH!!!

Glasnow not exactly the type of pitcher to get an offense going. Sale will have to perform like the ACE he is being paid to be.
Actually, he had a +6 going into tonight's game. The BRUINS lost tonight mainly because their top 2 lines sucked. Bergeron is either playing hurt or has aged 10 years since the regular season ended. Pastrnak has been terrible for most of the PO's. He'll probably be fired by Dunkin' Donuts.
I wouldn't be surprised if DD isn't shopping JBJ around the league. I doubt a NL team would be interested because they already have a pitcher batting in the line-up. Hopefully, DD can secure an average CF who can, at least, put the bat on the ball.
Note to Cora: Except when Leon's catching, please bat JBJ 9th in the line-up. Btw, Cora, JBJ and Leon should never be in the same line-up. Here's an amazing stat; JBJ's OPS is lower than Ted Williams' BA in 1941.
