Switch out a real generational hitter like Judge with Vlad and we would be sitting at 8-2 right now, or at worst 7-3. Another stellar 0 for 4 performance from the 500 million dollar man. Well done Vlad!

Giving Vlad more money than Judge is objectively hilarious

The guys at the bottom of the order have been giving better ABs than the three at the top. lol.

I'm sorry, but I'm at a point right now where I'm fine with a Bo and Gurerro trade. Start the rebuild. These three clowns we have running the team better not be here next year either.

What I don’t understand is that this has been a weakness for his entire career, why has no one on his team worked on it with him or why does a guy who wants to get paid an absurd amount of money not take it upon himself to get better. Again at some point you need to tweak your swing…

What’s even more concerning is there was a point in time where he was mashing fastballs and now he’s late on all of them. I can’t remember the last time he clobbered a fastball… he clearly needs an approach/swing change and for some reason hasn’t made it… again this guy was supposed to be generational…

Vladdy bet on himself and so far its not looking good, don't extend him unless its for pennies on the dollar.

Red Sox are scoring more runs tonight than we have all season, it won't go well either way.
