  1. So, we’re in last place in the AL East. I guess it’s time to sell. It just worries me that the next 4-5 year trajectory of the club could be decided by this trade deadline. Xander isn’t quite at Mookie’s level, but he’s played the most games ever at SS in club history. I still don’t think they should trade him unless another Verdugo-like trade is offered. I really hope they don’t trade Vazquez, though. He’s gonna get a nice contract this off-season, but am still hoping for a modest hometown discount.
  2. Apparently they’re going to be selling more than buying. JD emerging as most likely to be dealt. I don’t get it.
  3. If they only coulda scored three touchdowns in the second half, it could’ve been a game… wow.
  4. Fractured pinky on left hand for Sale. Could be worse… but definitely not good.
  5. That was frustratingly quick. Fuck.
  6. Crazy. Every team in the AL East is .500 or higher.
  7. Comeback wins are fun. Especially against the Yanks. Hopefully the Rays stay cold… another 4 game series starts today, in Tampa. Don’t look now — but the *Orioles* are only a game below .500.
  8. Wish it were me. We got a ballgame here!
  9. Never doubted for a second!
  10. Sums up last night. Raffy is hurt, will sit a game or two. Kutter Crawford thrown to the wolves tonight. I’ll be happy if he somehow makes it to the 5th inning.
  11. Maybe not assume “anyone” can play RF? Jeez…
  12. Welp, that got out of hand quickly. If they get swept at home over 4 games… not sure they even deserve the Wild Card.
  13. Connor Seabold(!) on the bump tonight… hopefully the offense shows up tonight.
  14. Good game, unfortunate result. Yanks bullpen is surprisingly solid this year. Would be nice to have one of those. Get ‘em back tomorrow. Crowd will be wild.
  15. Alex Speier: “When Brayan Bello takes the mound Wednesday, he will do so as the most anticipated Red Sox pitching prospect in years. Not since Eduardo Rodriguez in 2015 has a Red Sox minor league pitcher arrived in the big leagues with as clear a path to being a rotation anchor. That Bello occupies that space almost exactly five years after signing with the Red Sox represents a remarkable development. He was a passed-over prospect on the international market who was overlooked by all 30 organizations for his first two full years of eligibility to sign. When the Red Sox finally inked him as an 18-year-old July 2, 2017, he signed for less than $30,000. “I just took it as a challenge knowing that I wasn’t ready at [16] to sign and play professional baseball,” Bello said recently. “I took that year and a half to get more strength in my body and perform the right way so the chance eventually would come.”
  16. Is there a legit source saying it’s him under investigation?
  17. Having Tanner Houck for this series would be nice. Just saying…
  18. Just swept a pretty decent Cleveland team on the road. 8 runs on 15 hits, and still left 30(!) runners on base. [eyeroll] Won 12 of the last 15, and 7 in a row. Haven’t lost a series in a month. Don’t let this team get hot. Don’t. On to Toronto…
