I don't understand the love for Garcia. I really hate this guy outside of his versatility.

He does a lot of things. None of them extraordinarily well. But at a bare minimum, mediocre to average. Better than a lot.

He is fine as a 26th man on the roster, but the Sox use him far more than that

Give their current injury situation(s), the Sox must use Garcia as they are.

Sheets is wearing out that LF side. Just missed HR #2.

Sheets just kills the ball at every level. Guy is going to be a permanent corner OFer when Vaughn eventually takes over 1st from Abreu when he retires.

His first 9 ABs look pretty good.

He never really "killed" the ball in the minors. He was a decent hitter throughout his tenure in the minors. He finally turned it up this year. Charlotte is a bandbox though.

Rodon with a bit of a staredown and an eversoslight head nod after he punches out Donaldson. Love it.

He seems to have a good eye and isn't jumping at bad pitches. I think the most impressive last night was that high fastball he turned on.

Then he blows Cruz away. Its like he knows when he has his good stuff, and today is one of those days.

What is making his season so great is that when he doesn't have his good stuff, which is rare, he's still able to battle and keep teams off the scoreboard for the most part.

What a dumb slide. Hopefully he just jammed it. Moncada is a bit of a chinadoll.

Stop making things up. He didn't even leave the game (yet).

He is surprisingly soft. Sometimes I think baseball players have an inverse relationship between fitness and durability.

I'm sorry you live the life you lead. Its pathetic. Now STFU.

Keep the line moving so Moncada can ice his hand for a bit. And bury these fuckers.

That's a "Harry and Lloyd" play. Grandal being dumb, Donaldson being dumber.

That is on the left fielder for throwing to the wrong base when they are telling him to throw to second.

Hopefully Moncada is cautionary. They’re nearing the point of having every starter injured.

That was actually an interesting situation and it’d have been nice if either Benetti or Stone explained the rule, rather than making me google it.
