Ah, Joe Foy reborn.

Foy was probably before your time. The Sox were so high on Foy coming out of AAA that they converted The Boomer to a first baseman to make room for Foy. Which worked out, in a way. Scott kept Foy's fielding average in the .900s. Barely.

I was impressed with his "belly flop" catch the other night. Most of us full figure guys do NOT like to belly flop on grass. I think he is doing much better on defense than Ramirez in left field.

However both of them are hitting very well, and a mistake here and there on defense, so far has been outweighed by their offense.

I think most of out pitchers will settle in, with the only exception of Clay. I would love to see Clay pitch for the Yankees.

Seems the Porcello contract may have contrasted Clay's, in his head he knows he's only getting paid for the #4 spot, and I think he may have issues with Porcello making almost triple his pay. I am on NO WAY suggesting we pay Clay the pay of an ace to make him play like an ace.

Once again Clay has reinforced why I can't stand to watch him pitch.....

looks like we are on our way to repeat and go worst to worst back to back seasons....
