I'd argue that if it's true rivals MLB wants to promote, the Sox should play the Yankees and the Braves play the Mets.

Not a Red Sox fan, but am very impressed with what they've done over the first half of the season, especially given the injuries they've had. They rode into the AS Break with some impressive series wins over some really good teams and I think they're a legit Wild Card contender. To solidify their chances to make the post season, or advance in the post season, I think they need a legit top of the rotation guy and some help at middle infield. They've got some decent prospects to use as trade capital if they want to.

If you're Craig Breslow do you:

A. Take the Aggressive Approach: Make a bold move at the deadline to address those needs. (Worked for the Texas Rangers last year)
B. Take a Moderate Approach: Try to add depth, without using too much trade capital if there's value to be had. (Worked for the Arizona Diamondbacks last year)
C. Do Nothing: and hope your current roster can carry you and wait for the off-season to make a move.
D. Sell: if there's an offer out there that makes sense.

Not looking for what you THINK the Sox will do. Looking for what YOU would do if you were in that position.

Go big or do nothing.
When your team is in the race and has a wildcard spot at the AS break, you improve the team ( you owe this to the players).
We need more pitching. I am worried at the innings pitched with Crawford and Houck.
Would love to have a solid #2 or 3 guy. LH preferably.
We have a surplus at 2B we can trade...Yorke is having a great year in AAA, Grissom is still hurt and we won't know what we have with him until he can play at least 80 games ( imagine what our team would look like with Sale now??) Kristian Campbell is tearing it up at AA and can play 2B.
We still have Trevor Story as well and is best suited at 2B.
Once Casas returns, we will need add right handed power hitter to complement him at 1B and DH sometimes.
Address these two holes and I like our chances to keep the wildcard spot and do some damage in the playoffs.

Aggressive. Full stop. It's go big or go home time. They have a chance to win now, so they should strike while the iron's hot. Breslow shouldn't listen to Sam Kennedy and the nerds. Package prospects to get real pieces to win now. They have the prospects and the door's wide open, so go get some horses to add to this team. They should take calls on any prospect they got, even Mayer if the price is right, to get real pitching on the front end of the rotation so that the Sox aren't outgunned in October. They need to go back to being the Boston Red Sox and stop pretending to be the Tampa Bay Rays and Oakland Athletics.

Get both Eovaldi and Flaherty. They need rotation depth.

Should consider a second career in hockey or rugby.

This has to be one of those " it actually tastes better than it looks " because it looks like crap.

Does it come with a free roll of toilet paper?

Maybe that's what the plate is for ????

He’s had so many health issues, love him to death but that’s also why I don’t wanna see him die on the job

An organization cans you and puts a personal hit piece in the Globe on your way out and then just brush it aside to come back to the good ole days.

I hope Terry would tell them to go screw

I have a tolerance to eat a lot of things that aren't visually appealing. Hell I've eaten cartilage and organ meat before. That looks like a bunch of disgusting crap shoveled hastily into a taco shell. Hard pass.

Sea Dogs lead 5-2; Coffey started;

Worcester leads 4-1; Gambrell started;

Pivetta tonight @ LAD

 

[Bruinswillwin77]

Pivetta looks like he's in pain or something.

 

[Bruinswillwin77]

Oh my goodness. Duran lol.

 

[Mione134]

Big Dick Nick putting in work tonight.

O'Neill was safe at first. Laz Diaz says out. Cora challenges it. New York says he's out.

What. A. Joke

 

[Mione134]

Aaaaaaand Freeman hits a grand slam.

f***ing embarrassing

 

[CDJ]

Not having your top 2 setup men kinda hurts here!

 

[Mione134]

Bernardino is usually nails but everyone saw that coming

 

[Midship]

Cute run and all, but they will fall apart and miss the playoffs.

 

[Mione134]

Nick Pivetta deserved better

 

[BostonBob]

Would it kill Cora to use a sacrifice bunt once in a while ???? The Sox had the leadoff hitter on 2nd with no outs in the 1st, 4th and 7th innings and they never once made it to 3rd base.
