We just played these jerks last weekend. They stole a few games.It's time for some vengeance.
We're at home finally. Betts first home game in 1 month, betcha he can't wait to take the field.

They've lost 4 straight including Sunday's game to us and 3 at Yankee Stadium. However, their lefty LeBlanc shut us down for 7.2 innings on Saturday. Wright was almost as good against them, and the final was 1-0.
I think Wright will again be effective unless it rains. I don't think LeBlanc can repeat. We have a good lineup, certainly better than Seattle's. I will say, however, that LeBlanc was pretty darn good at keeping the ball down. I'm not so sure that is repeatable because of the small margin of error. Wright, meanwhile, has the whole strike zone to work with.

It's been mentioned that it might be a good idea to bring Lin up to play 2nd. I agree. However, who do the SOX move to open a spot for him?
1. Mookie Betts (R) RF
2. Andrew Benintendi (L) CF
3. J.D. Martinez (R) LF
4. Mitch Moreland (L) 1B
5. Xander Bogaerts (R) SS
6. Rafael Devers (L) 3B
7. Brock Holt (L) 2B
8. Christian Vazquez (R) C
9. Blake Swihart (S) DH
And who do I find at the bottom of the order....Swihart. At least he will be batting RHed. His LH swing has become something that actually hurts to look at. So there is that.
The Yanks put these guys in a funk.
Time for us to keep them there.
The non-moving knuckler is dangerous.
You could see it on the slow-mo. That was way too much rotation for a knuckleball to Cruz which is why it did nothing. The HR after it...same story. Too much rotation.
Why is Seattle still taking batting practice?
