Why is Grissom not playing?
Christopher Smith of The Springfield Republican reports Saturday was a planned off day for Grissom, as the Red Sox will try to ease the 23-year-old back after he missed the first month of the season due to a hamstring injury.
Have you never seen Cora manage? Guy coming back from injury, (and illness) day game after a night game...i don't necessarily agree but i am absolutely not surprised.Why is Grissom not playing?
This is hardly exclusive to Cora.Have you never seen Cora manage? Guy coming back from injury, (and illness) day game after a night game...i don't necessarily agree but i am absolutely not surprised.
I was only able to watch a few minutes in which he smoothy fielded a dribbler for a force at home. Of course I'm referring to the 7th inning where Uwasawa got himself scratched off anyone's major league plans, so of course I had to turn it off shortly after.Wasn't Grissom unimpressive last night? Didn't watch the game, but I see he didn't get a hit (although he participated in a successful DP).
Our new infield is soooooooooooo unimpressive, in my opinion. Oy.
Oh well, do try and Geaux, Sox! (And I'll try to watch.)
It was his first game back after a long IL stint and the flu. He made the routine plays at 2B and also made a good decision to go home to force an out.Wasn't Grissom unimpressive last night? Didn't watch the game, but I see he didn't get a hit (although he participated in a successful DP).

Hopefully, it's opposite day for him as in what pulled your avatar out of his funk.Yikes. O’Neil is 0-7 with 5 K’s against Pablo Lopez. Maybe he should have been the one to get the day off.
Mike Krukow would say he is currently “on the interstate”. There is a route 195, actually, you have back there.Win, and get Little Raffi above the Mendoza line.
He was good in 2019 and 2020?Kinda wondering what about Smith makes him the pick for DH. At least over Refsnyder, even against a RHP.
I strenuously object to legal jokes.After going 6-11 in his last three games, Miranda was 0-3 last night.
Someone should remind him that he has the right to remain silent this series
You mean, aside from being a LHH? I imagine Cora's trying to figure out how to use the guy.Kinda wondering what about Smith makes him the pick for DH. At least over Refsnyder, even against a RHP.
Honestly just think they're giving looks to Smith and Cooper to see if either is worth keepingKinda wondering what about Smith makes him the pick for DH. At least over Refsnyder, even against a RHP.
This has to be the answer.Honestly just think they're giving looks to Smith and Cooper to see if either is worth keeping
How so?Bernardino looks dominant.
That sweeper is a thing of beauty. No hard hit balls to speak of.How so?
I like him, but he looks sorta meh.
Though known for his classical mechanics, Kepler strikes out.I strenuously object to legal jokes.
I take it back. He's okay.How so?
I like him, but he looks sorta meh.
ITP, please let me introduce JTB. JTB, please meet ITP.How so?
I like him, but he looks sorta meh.
I like his quick delivery to home plate, but Connor didn’t like it too much on that “wild pitch “.How so?

Wasn't all that info about Lopez?So Cooper is a smart guy huh?
Oh, yeah. I know, but I felt like talking after missing the game last night.ITP, please let me introduce JTB. JTB, please meet ITP.
Yeah, I skipped last night too. Gametime decision and a good one.Oh, yeah. I know, but I felt like talking after missing the game last night.
This is also what I think. So I think Cora will give Smith and Cooper (but I’m not worried about Cooper) more or less daily PAs while Yoshida is IL’d. If Smith hasn’t shown anything by the time Yoshida either returns (or has surgery), it’s onto plan D at 1B/DH/LF: a Refsnyder/Kavadas platoon? Acquiring Tyler Wade from SD? Promoting/acquiring an infielder to play 3B and DHing Devers some?Honestly just think they're giving looks to Smith and Cooper to see if either is worth keeping
Technically yes. He hasn't been seen in over a week. I imagine we'll see him today at some point.Is Chase Anderson still on the roster?
