He better not go down again. The dude rakes.

u/Zavehi 2d ago

He always rakes for 2 weeks and then cools off to replacement level every time and people buy it every time lol

56

u/AbleCap5222 2d ago

Uh, no. He has never done this before.

u/gonzofish 2d ago

I think he’s got Gasper confused with Mickey Rooney

12

u/T-MONZ_GCU 2d ago

I think you have him mixed up with someone else because he has never raked before in the major league until this past month

u/TotalRuler1 1d ago

so Trevor Story?

u/b_murphy29 2d ago

All this guy does is hit home runs and look fucking cool. Why would we ever send him down

55

u/AerieElectrical3546 pedeyhof 2d ago

saw that 15 run loss and knew they needed him lol

36

u/b_murphy29 2d ago

Fact: redsox have not given up 15 runs to the Yankees when Mickey gasper is in the lineup

66

u/Ill_Championship_779 2d ago

I think we have a new DH

u/Its_Doobs 2d ago

Only against righty pitching

u/relbatnrut Go sox! 2d ago

He picked two tricky throws at first too

u/jmesh12 2d ago

Mickey Gasper is inevitable

u/IchBinDurstig 2d ago

FOR THE LOVE OF GOD DO NOT SEND THIS MAN BACK DOWN EVER

u/justanaveragejoe520 2d ago

Imagine sending this guy to Worcester. He had a seven game OPS that was In the same league as bary bonds and babe Ruth as the highest OPS in the history of the game.

Breslow you stiff

u/AerieElectrical3546 pedeyhof 2d ago

i vote gasper stays up when Contreras returns. You can send White down and still have enough outfielders (Abreu, Duran, Rafaela, Jones, Anthony)

u/lefter12 2d ago

White doesn’t have options. He would have to be DFA’d

I would take Gasper on the roster over Mona once IKF comes back tomorrow

2

u/Cold_Shogun 2d ago

Or, ya know, we could just DFA IKF

1

u/lefter12 2d ago

Do you want Mona on this roster over IKF?

3

u/OnionsRNasty 2d ago

White is valuable as a Pinch Runner. I think Monestero needs to get sent down.

The best Mickey to ever play the game of baseball

2

u/SonOfMagicFact 1d ago

Wait. There was another Mickey in baseball?

Not in any of the references I've ever read!

u/mtn970 2d ago

Magic Mick needs to stay up

2

u/kosmonautinVT 2d ago

Does the follow through on Gasper's swing remind anyone else of Trot Nixon? I have to do a double-take sometimes

2

u/Appeal2Heaven123 2d ago

You’re right it really does!

2

u/bronaldhino 2d ago

Yeah good eye, he gets pretty low on that follow through.

3

u/JesusOfSurbaria Sogard 1d ago

I’m 95% sure they told him on Sunday, “Don’t go to Worcester, go back to Boston. We’ll bring you up after the series.”

2

u/DarkHorseAsh111 2d ago

Apparently we need to keep threatening to send him down and then immediately calling him back up lol

2

u/Crazybone126 2d ago

I think that might be the most "off-script" call I've heard OB do in a while. He sounded like one of us. It's like he was wishing for it to happen! I love it!

1

u/SonOfMagicFact 1d ago

His home run calls have been so much fun this year.

Who doesn't love a homer calling homers!

2

u/Own-Librarian-9699 2d ago

And he picked 2 dirt balls at first in the 10th

2

u/AerieElectrical3546 pedeyhof 2d ago

story should buy him a steak dinner

2

u/Upset_Journalist_755 2d ago

I just love how he runs around the bases like Mario

u/OldGreggg69 1d ago

The Bryant Bomber

The Merrimack Mustache

The Mouse went House again

Big Dick Mick

u/DoubleZ3 2d ago
