The #1 prospect in baseball should stay in the minors forever so that the team can say they have the #1 prospect in baseball.

In the Sox case, they can bring the #1 prospect up and STILL have the #1 prospect.

HUGE series this weekend. Losing 2-3 is a must. Getting swept would be fantastic.

Terrible mindset. You play to win the game. You don't play for any other reason.

I don't get why Keyser wants the Sox to lose. They could have the 1st pick or the 27th pick, and he would do nothing except bitch about whoever the Sox draft.

They took Jones? He sucks. Papa Bunt will ruin what little talent he has!

Normally I agree but this clown college has catchers warming up in the 3rd inning. Losing hard is the only option.

Lazy play by Moncada. Move your damn feet and get in front of the ball.

Great job by Giolito to pitch over it.

Three pitches in and Tim Anderson already has a strikeout. Maybe 'Papa Bunt' shouldn't put him in a leadoff spot, huh Keyser?

You boy Tim Anderson leads the league in errors. Grow a sack and go after him once in a while.

Of course Anderson fails to get the runner in from 3rd.

Holy fuck did he get around the bases fast. Kid's a walking tool shed. Just needs to pick a swing and stick with it.

Big fat panda. Sheesh

Moncada you prima Donna lazy fuck.

All right papa pitch count get the kid out of there. He has nothing left to prove.

Timmaaaaaaaay!!!!!

You gotta be some kind of god awful offense if you're getting beat by this drop down slopball bullshit.

The kid is so fuckin good. He's going to be a monster.

Cycle!!

He'll be lucky to have the career of Jose Valentin.

Tim Anderson since the start of August: .286/.301/.550 over 143 PA.

He won't be close to Valentin. He's a worse fielder. Imagine that! And he can't hit. Are we supposed to celebrate the fact he got on 30% of the time for a month? He's Bee Bee Richard.

Anybody here seen my old friend Bobby?
Can you tell me where he's gone?
I thought I saw him walkin' up to The Hill
With Elon, Tulsi, and Don

Well at least he gave up the home run to lead off the inning instead of after he walked two guys. Progress!

Kid's really swingin it and now he's getting the running game going. Great to see.

Jose could fucking hit. For power. Anderson still may be decent. Let's see what he does next year.

Hawk sounds old . . .

Jose Abreu!! Yes!!

Singles hitter Jose Abreu with another HR

So this will be back to back wins vs SFG greatly increasing the Giants chances at the top pick.

And they cut Derek Holland why??

They don't have a chance of overtaking the Giants. They're fuckin brutal.

Sox 86 losses, SF 88, Phil 89 not counting today. Should have kept Holland in the rotation.

He would've thrown the game of his life against them just like shitbag Shields did last night.

I agree. The 4 man rotation will come back. Hopefully sooner rather than later.
