I'm liking the changes so far, this team feels more energized than usual. The addition of Lawrie,Rollins and Frasier changed the whole clubhouse, they got rid of that turd laroche and his kid and losing Samardiza n Beckham was addition by subtraction. Moving Eaton to right and limiting his awful decisions in center is huge, that dummy can't really throw to the wrong bag or airmail the cutoff man in right..if the Pen continues to be average to above average this team can win 90 games and grab a WC spot..I'm pleasantly surprised.

Solid take.

It's still very early, but winning games while not hitting has doomed the Sox in the past. Having 3/4 solid starters helps a lot.

I'll stand by my 86 win prediction.

Still got 13 mill in their pocket to invest to make a move since laroche is gone.

The best use of that money may be using it to cut Danks.

Or grab ARod, which would be brilliant.

DH-Rod? I'd take him. They can't friggin' hit, and eventually they're going to waste the good starting pitching....

Until this pitching comes back to earth, which feels like it happen with every last pitch, they will continue to pile up wins. If a team can shut down AL lineups day in day out it makes them basically unbeatable.

Sox cant score much, but they can score. As long as they put up more than 1 run a game with this pitching they will keep winning.

Moving Eaton to right is worth 2 wins this season.

Yeah the Eaton to right is huge, no way numbnuts Ventura thought of that.


I don't want aroid here, its a likable team and good clubhouse chemistry..that dickbag brings nothing positive.

Seems like they are in the process of dumping Danks. He was not too bad his last start. Hope they can find a bat somewhere.

Wouldn't the Chairman love to see him hit his 700th HR in a Sox uniform?

Abreau will hit. Cream rises to the top. The guy can flat-out rake and he will.

He's great, no doubt a top 10 slugger...I'd pitch around him 100% of the time n make Todd Frasier beat me..I see a lot of his RBI are balls..he's swinging because he knows they need him 2 drive the ball..not walk and be a statue on the bases...its just Dumb As Fuck to pitch to the guy.

You are absolutely correct..he's the weak kink on offense and he's a weak glove..dump this bum n spend that 13 million on his LF replacement.
