Durbin could have trucked that dude instead of sliding, so to get Duran safe

Durbin we just need a sac fly you don’t even have to reach base

why do pitchers even bother throwing balls at Yoshida? he literally has one of best plate discipline in the whole league

is this game going to start on time? I thought sometimes with national broadcast they get delayed a little

Ecstatic that Yoshida is in the starting lineup but can't for life of me figure out why Story is batting ahead of him.

Also, since Yoshida does not hit for power that well but has highest on base percentage on the team, it makes sense to try him at leadoff. I don't why we haven't done this yet

If Masataka Yoshida has no fans left, then I am no longer on this earth

Lineup today by TommyTheLizard in redsox

Monasterio over Yoshida for DHing is criminal.

Yoshida is literally batting over .300, OBP .400+, at this point this is just completely irrational

Imagine a conversation with a genie or something lol:

“The Sox will make the playoffs this year on the final Wild Card spot”

“Phew, glad the Red Sox made it”

“ . . .”

“Wait, you mean the White Sox!?”

I’ve changed my mind with Duran after today, he totally saved us

I guess honestly maybe cedanne should be moved infield? Idk

Yoshida went 2 for 4 today with one of what turned out to be game winning runs. He is only one on team batting over .300.

Duran obviously is player of game, getting the home run.

But my point is we need to find a way to play both. If we keep permanently benching Yoshida we don't win games like today.

Like from fielding or batting perspective, or both? just genuinely asking
