With Turner's flyball out, this lineup now features 5 hitters at the Mendoza line or way below. The range is Turner at .200 down to Kike at .100. Oh but you say, check the OPS's , a better gauge. Ok, Casas does lead them at .690 (not terrible), getting down to the bottom of the curve with a .420 by Wong. I know, I know, it's early and nothing a couple HR's couldn't cure. Casas and Kike do have 2 each , none of the Turner-Wong-Arroyo crowd have any in 84 AB's

P:ivetta giving the batters a chance to make something happen in the form of a lead
-
Among others who need to step up their game in the absence of Duvall, Turner comes to mind. Kike is a no doubter who needs to come around. Casas and now Dalbec need to contribute. Wong catching more than McGuire or is that an illusion created by not watching every game ? Arroyo, what do you expect from a bench player ? Taking 2 of 3 from Rays would be a great boost and these dudes need to get in gear against some tough pitching
-
MVP, Brasier is no option, by definition
-
OK, I'll just say it. f*** Kike Hernandez at SS. Not even his fault, it is actually on Bloom and whoever is pulling his strings
-
Bra-Man showing the way with a 14-2 lead , issuing the obligatory 2 out walk and HBP, followed by a hit
-
You guys tear up Kaleb Ort like he's an IRS notification of audit . He puts in a nice inning despite a mishap in the field behind him which stretched the inning and pitch count. Now, DO NOT send him back out for the 9th
-
Good day when 7-8-9 participate ( Kike did draw a walk)
-
Turner may come around and get hot but right now he should be about a #7 hitter. He could be trade deadline bait too for a contender with a broken DH slot The reasons he can't be placed below #6 are Arroyo, Kike, Wong
-
Devers with a nice Saturday.
-
Wong gets in the bats way, then Kelly throws up a walk., instead of 2 out , none on, Kelly needs a DP
-
3 walks today and Yoshida has his OPS up to almost .800 ( .793)
-
At 8-2 with 2 outs, man on 3rd, this would be a big out to nail down without allowing another score. And he does it !
-
Yes, beginning to see the same trend of declining results after 2 times through. It points to why he may have to be a lifetime reliever, but possibly a very good one
-
Note to Bloom-- beware Hill will be cheap to acquire from Tigers , but don't be tempted.
-
Nice shutdown inning by Houck after getting the big lead. Maybe the Sox have developed a pitcher , though he may go back to the pen . Not all bad
-
Devers follows direction well. Thanks, Raffy
-
Wentz got 3 outs in 1st on 11 pitches, and now goes 36 in the 2nd and hits the showers. Devers needs to clean up the reliever and break this one open.
-
Wong now tied with Turner on RBIs
-
Astounded that Wong got some patience as did Kike
-
Agreed, He and Kike are hitting about .286, combined
-
Houck could be so good just due to the movement on his pitches. He sort of slings it up there with loads of natural spin. Get him some runs
-
Sox out on 11 pitches ?? That was quick
-
Looking for a road win today with good outing for Tanner. get to .500 and work up from there.

4/05 Pirates @ SOX 1:35PM

Not that it is the prime concern after 6 games, but in the first week , Sox are 4 games out behind Bloom's real team. Cora said a fast start (4-2 would have been ok) was necessary. Unfortunately, Bloom let the Rays bug our clubhouse and acted on it.
