I hope that when Holt is healthy that he plays second base the rest of the way. It is pointless to play Betts at second base. There isn't a snowball's chance in hell that he ever plays second base for the Sox. They should be seeing if Betts can handle third base. That is an open position for next season.

I just have this sour feeling in my gut that it makes no difference because Betts will be traded in the off season.
I'll go nuts if that happens. Betts is probably the only visible bright spot among the Sox prospects.
Bogaerts was slow off the ball charging that grounder. A SS has to make that play.

Middlebrooks is so awful he fucked up the 9th.
He's awful.

Is this what you are referring to Station?
"
The Sox were on the verge of tying the score after Allen Craig led off the ninth by being grazed by a pitch and pinch-runner Jemile Weeks bolted to third on a single by Daniel Nava. The next batter, Will Middlebrooks, chopped a ball down the third-base line that struck Weeks as he tried diving back to the bag. He was called out on runner's interference, Farrell failing to persuade plate umpire Mike Muchlinski that Weeks was not in fair territory when the ball struck him."
As if the Sox are not bad enough!!!! Middlebrooks screwed the pooch in a new way that I have never seen. All he had to do was drive the ball fairly deep to center or to right field for the sac fly and to tie the game.
What a complete F-up.
Disgraceful.
