      The Braves started 9-31 under Fredi Gonzalez. Since that point, they are 41-52 under Brian Snitker...not great, but infinitely better than they played in the 2nd half of last year plus this first month.

      With one month left in the season I think the goal should be a winning month...15-14 would match last year's record and would be huge, IMO.

        Let him go to Boston over 15 mil, never forget. He should've been forced to have his last name changed.

          If this makes you feel better you guys have a better chance of making the playoffs than us. We play like 75% of our games on the road and our manager is a goon, to put it nicely. And I highly doubt Moncada is anything more than a pinch runner in the late innings because of said manager.

            I dislike John Farrell like the most Sox fans, but your constant need to take shots at the guy every chance you get is unhealthy.

                It still hurts, but having Mateo and Torres makes me feel better about it.

                    Hey, hey! We EXPECT to make the playoffs.

                    Nice to see Sanchez not skip a beat last night as he continues to impress on his magical season. I just hope this doesn't lead to a rough 2017.

                        So, wow, what a win by the Dodgers last night.

                        Andrew Toles has been a huge steal for us.

                          Jays haven't had a season yet with both Stroman and Sanchez putting up good numbers in rotation yet. Imagine when that happens. Legit 1-2 guys right there.

                          I hope Jays can get division locked up early. Doing so means they can rest guys,specifically Sanchez, until playoffs. Let's just hope it's not a 3 team battle for ALE/WC for all of September.

                            Addison Russell is the clutch-est SS in baseball right now. Yeah, I said it.

                              ...but can he do it in October? There hasn't been a "clutch" Cub in over 100 years...going to be fascinating to see how the Cubs handle being the favorites.

                                I think, because he plays in Miami, Christian Yelich might just be the most underrated player in baseball. Guy does it all and I bet the casual baseball fan doesn't even know who he is.
