Red Sox at Astros, 8/1/22

The interview with Vazquez regarding the trade was awkward as the Massholes/sawx personnel pulled him away midway through.

Get your shit together, Luis

Food here, someone else gets PBP

Time for bats to respond.

Iā€™ve been cooking dinner and half paying attention, but the guys in the booth, whoever they may be, actually seem to know the names of the Astros.

Their names are on the back of their jerseys.

Great baserunning Yuli!

I am curious what all heā€™s doing tonight: Iā€™m sure thereā€™s a bunch of paperwork being triangulated between the Stros, MLB, his agent and him. Iā€™m assuming he needs a physical. Is he moving out of the Sox hotel and into a Stros-provided room somewhere?

The Sox defense is everything itā€™s cracked up to be.

They said on the broadcast that heā€™s in limbo until MLB approves the trade.

Iā€™m a big fan of the sawx/Massholesā€™ defense.

Or lack there of.

Booth is right about Yuli not tagging there.

I thought Yordan got more of that than he did. My drive-detector needs servicing, thatā€™s twice tonight

Keep swinging that bat nicely, Aledmys.

Youā€™re not alone, I thought he got it

Iā€™m glad that Dusty woke in the middle of the night and penciled Diaz into the lineup.

Guess he was sleeping on it.
