Okay. Let’s beat the Rockies. The Rockies are not good. The Sox are also not good. But the Sox are slightly better than the Rox. Thus, we should win today.

This probably the optimal defensive lineup, right? Maybe Kiké in center if I'm splitting hairs.Danielson replied
Click to expand...Interesting lineup after the defensive issues last night:
1. Alex Verdugo (L) RF
2. Masataka Yoshida (L) LF
3. Justin Turner (R) 1B
4. Rafael Devers (L) 3B
5. Adam Duvall (R) CF
6. Triston Casas (L) DH
7. Christian Arroyo (R) 2B
8. Reese McGuire (L) C
9. Pablo Reyes (R) SS

NOW, ALL CAUGHT UP. OR WILL FOLKS STILL PREFER YESTERDAY'S THREAD? STAY TUNED.
How ironic that our optimal defensive lineup includes our DH ( who at 38 years old has started just 25 games at the position previous to this season) at 1B and our first baseman at DH.People are still posting tonight's lineup in yesterday's thread.

Hmm. Yes, irony. Cora finally noticed that Turner plays a much much much better 1B than Casas. Now, can Casas hit better not having to worry about playing a position? One can only hope so.How ironic that our optimal defensive lineup includes our DH ( who at 38 years old has started just 25 games at the position previous to this season) at 1B and our first baseman at DH.
Until, of course, someone else gets hurt.Tonight's lineup looks like to will be the one we see most of the time going forward.

Red Sox are moving Kiké Hernández off the starting shortstop role.
He’ll be more of a utility guy moving forward. Justin Turner will play more 1B over Casas.
They're displaying the same approach that led to last season's trade deadline. It's like a remake of Groundhog Day starring Wile E. Coyote.Needs to get better by playing DH in a season they aren't going anywhere. Dumb decision.
Casas can wok on D outside of games. I have no problem with this, it won't hurt his development. It doesn't have to permanent.Needs to get better by playing DH in a season they aren't going anywhere. Dumb decision.
Hallelulah!Tonight's lineup looks like to will be the one we see most of the time going forward.

That's great! Sometime soon I am going to plagiarize that line.They're displaying the same approach that led to last season's trade deadline. It's like a remake of Groundhog Day starring Wile E. Coyote.
I don't think the 29 yo AAA SS with a career .664 OPS for the worst team in MLB is allowed to take offense.Cora seems frustrated, mainly with the construction of the roster. It sounded more like he was defending his decisions by saying his options are limited. “The roster is the roster”. Even though it’s true, saying he doesn’t see Pablo Reyes as an everyday player either wasn’t much of a vote of confidence for your new SS.
Yep, I just switch to NYY @ NYM on TBS. At least for a bit, until I can hope Millar has stopped talking.Ugh. More Millar.
it sounds like Hernandez will still show up as the late-inning SS after Cora goes to a PH for Reyes.Cora seems frustrated, mainly with the construction of the roster.

Not gonna happen. Enjoy Mets/MFY.Yep, I just switch to NYY @ NYM on TBS. At least for a bit, until I can hope Millar has stopped talking.
Why should he any different than anyone else?What’s the point of Millar phoning it in?
Scherzer looks vulnerable. Back to NESN with mute button handy.Not gonna happen. Enjoy Mets/MFY.
Youk OB =muteWhat’s the point of Millar phoning it in?
Nicely done.Why should he any different than anyone else?
Fleming a poor imitation of Dennis Miller calling NFL games which is really rough.Youk OB =mute
Merloni OB =mute
Middlebrooks OB= listen
Millar with anyone=mute
I have been trying linking WEEI with MLBtv.. Pretty good except Fleming is as bad as all those guys.
Castig is fine but have to mute when Fleming is doing play by play.
He can take Duvall with him.Seriously, does Devers need to see the opthalmologist?
