    IKF would have walked except for swinging at 2 pitches over his head
  2. vegasbob
    I would try to move 5 or 6 guys for PTBNL's znd play out 2026 with about 21 guys. See who can man up

    Sox with a chance with another late game 2 out rally It's up to Duran Duran roll a over on a tapper to 1B. LHP breaking ball , who knew
  4. vegasbob
    Just catching up on a weak game but Connelly better keep the bus schedule to Worcester handy. The leadoff first pitch HRs are unacceptable. Suarez going 5 innings or less is going to be a problem as mentioned above
  5. vegasbob
    Duran drops a 2 run bomb on the Rangers in bottom 8th to set up the win
  6. vegasbob
    Guerrero takes a 2 run lead into 8th, gives up a HR, swing bunt. HBP. Uses 18 pitches to get 1 out. He's pulled BP roulette failure
  7. vegasbob
    How many swinging bunts do Sox give up .... LOTS. How many do they get in return...about none.
  8. vegasbob
    Rafaela looks terrible on first two strikes, then gets the 2 out, 2 rbi single to give Sox 4-2 lead
  9. vegasbob
    Fred, looks like Whitlock need that rest break. pumping it up at 97. looking sharp. Still at 2-2 this one needs about 3 runs to be a win
  10. vegasbob
    Suarez having a lot of trouble in the 5th. Bases loaded 1 out. same as 4th. 93 pitches with 2 outs and sacks still filled. Pitches his way out of 3-2 count with a very edgy strike. Texas hits like Sox do with MoB
  11. vegasbob
    Duran's May vs June up/down shows the inconsistency. They won't extend him as he approaches 30 later this year. With no long win streak over rest of June into July, Jarren must be traded Maybe Anthony will return one day and force the issue. What if Roman is so scared of reinjury that he never takes full power swings again, ever ?
  12. vegasbob
    Suarez gives the run right back. This could be a long 5 year contract. He's more of a #4 than anything higher.
  13. vegasbob
    Mickey G must be the best surprise of 2026. But DeGrom carved up Narvaez and later Cedanne, after Gasper's rbi single. Abreu gets the key 2 out rbi hit
  14. vegasbob
    Nice swing and hit by Mayer. Can he get there consistently and become a factor ?
  15. vegasbob
    Somebody got sloppy and cost a run
  16. vegasbob
    Two possibilities: Yoshi is either tradable with the Sox picking up 90% of his contract, which they have to anyway, or no one wants him ( more likely). At that point just, DFA or work a reverse deal with a Japanese team if that is allowed. IMO, there will be either no or a greatly diminished 2027 , so a lot depends on how contracts are either extended or ignored in the future CBA. JH is counting on contracts like Yoshida's to just evaporate in the remnant of the 2027 season
  17. vegasbob
    Good question , hard to answer in reality but try this: DFA ( assumes can't trade) Yoshida for a RHH DH, upgrade from Monasterio ( use a possibly a refurbished Romy G.,), , Move Wong and go with Gasper/Narvaez behind the plate , ,add OF/1Bman to bench. Still will need to make room for Story when/if he returns so maybe Mayer goes to AAA if his hitting stays cold . So Romy and OF/1B are 2 of the 4 bats , Story and Monasterio's replacement are the other 2. This is not the result desired in terms of adding 4 real hitters but the team still needs to just play out this season . Note that Casass could become the DH but I truly do not expect him on the team actively until rosters expand in September .

    Start of a streak of wins at Fenway or a fizzling dud on the launch pad ? De Grom and our own Ranger fairly evenly matched .
  19. vegasbob
    Take a laugher, especially at Fenway, when you can get one. Previous attempts at starting a streak have fizzled but maybe this is the one
  20. vegasbob
    Very surprised we have not acquired Leiter. Looks like our kind of guy
  21. vegasbob
    Although if any team can do something with Bello (questionable), then his contract for a bulk innings pitcher or #5 starter is not terrible at about $9 million per.
  22. vegasbob
    Gray just getting warmed up, he will be good next inning
  23. vegasbob
    No Boston player I recall , except Whitlock recently, returned at the end of the IL period . Neither was any player beset with a lesser injury than first imagined.
  24. vegasbob
    Gasper needs to put on the gas to start the engine
  25. vegasbob
    No, that would be the Angels with Trout and especially Jo Adell
