C'mon, isn't Sheets a better lefty option at DH than Grandal?

Coach Nellie, but…but…. but…you don’t understand!!! We need a guy with warning track power, not a 16 in Gun lobbing shells a mile away.

Or better yet, move Vaughn to DH and put a better RF out there (either Engel or Sheets).

Grandal should not be DH'ing until he starts hitting. Make him prove it first. Right now he's the worst hitter on the team.

Heck, put Pollock in RF and Vaughn DH. Just stop playing Vaughn in the OF. Agree with you about Grandal.

Let's hope the boys have stopped reading "The Art of Hitting Singles", author Nick Madrigal.

Look guys you can’t look at the results. You just can’t. You can only look at the process and approach.

Might be they are trying to get Grandal going. He has hit a couple of baseballs really hard recently but not had anything to show for them. No question a Sox team with Grandal at or near his career norms playing C in the playoffs is a big boost. If he doesn't get to find his timing, he can't be that guy.

But this is terrible process, that’s the problem.

A catcher at his age who is injured a lot, I don’t think he’ll ever be close to his career norms again. I hope I’m wrong but just you see it in his swing, he can’t get to that violent follow through with any consistency anymore.

You may be right, but the Sox can't just throw their hands up in the air and assume it's true. They need to find out and the way to do that is to let him try to hit his way out of this slump.

Is Leury hurt?

Yaz’s wheels lead to a run.
