Let's do this.

Anderson - SS
Grandal - C
Abbreu - 1B
Jimenez - LF
Encarnacion - DH
Moncada - 3B
Robert - CF
Dyson - RF
Madrigal - 2B

Why does Grandal consistently bat 2nd? Is it because he is a switch hitter?

[kingpin_rcs]

Adam Dunn = Adam LaRoche = Edwin Encarnacion

[guillensdisciple]

I'm confused, is Keuchel seriously injured or are the Sox just being cautious?

[Mohoney]

It’s been nice to see Nelson Cruz play like absolute dogcrap this series.

Adam Dunn = Adam LaRoche = Edwin Encarnacion

At least Edwin's contract is one and done and we have Andrew Vaughn waiting in the wings for 2021. The Sox were lucky that LaRoche up and retired over the Drake "Clubhouse Leader" fiasco and forfeited $13M for the final year of his contract

I'm confused, is Keuchel seriously injured or are the Sox just being cautious?

I read Merkin say today that they're lining up Keuchel in the rotation such that he'll start the 1st or 2nd game of the playoffs, so he'll start against the Reds.

[jcw218]

I'd rather the Sox be cautious and not rush Keuchel back. When you know you're going to be in the playoffs, when you get an opportunity to set up your rotation, you take it

[guillensdisciple]

Name a tradition better than the Sox propping up a no name offensive talent for the twins. This time, Buxton is our guy.

[Harwar]

I just hope that they can get this done today, so they don't have to worry about who pitches where and when . i don't want those cubs games to mean anything.

[guillensdisciple]

Oh boy, this is setting up to be an ugly one

[Kobo]

Oh boy, this is setting up to be an ugly one

It's 1-0 in the top of the 3rd. Step back.

[Kobo]

Nice play by Eloy.

[ChiTownTrojan]

It's 1-0 in the top of the 3rd. Step back.

And Lopez is actually looking pretty good so far. He made one mistake to Buxton.

Buxton is not a no name offensive talent. He was a highly regarded prospect who has struggled in the past.
