Yes

Amaya also has a HR

20K to 2 BB in 9.2 innings over his last 2 starts

Houser is a perfect 4-0 at home with just 2 ER in 26 innings (0.69 ERA, nice). Kind of insane for a guy without big strikeout stuff.

A season split where they won the road series and lost the home series is surprising given the splits for the Sox this season, but I'll take it.

Local product/ACE alum could be worth a look in later rounds. Merk highlighted him in a recent newsletter.

Similar vibe, but Matas has more edge IMO. I was hoping for a meeting of the FRPs when the Bulls guys were at the park yesterday.

Barons had 30 HR through 81 games coming into this one.

Has Ryan Fuller been spotted in Birmingham recently? 2 HR and a double (Burke) through 4 is a power surge for them lol

The summer of Tauchman rolls on

I think bad umpiring is particularly harmful to a team like the Sox where so many of your innings/games are won and lost on the margins, so I get especially annoyed by it. And that's doubly true when we have so many young guys trying to dial in their zone understanding as is. And it's TRIPLY true when there's no consistency. If you're gonna call a bad zone, at least keep it the same bad zone and don't make guys guess.

I mean it wasn't even close lol

Look at the rookies go 😍

Good for him. I'm one of the people who does buy into his underlying contact metrics and stuff, so I hope the change of scenery helps.

Losing that series to the Sox at home apparently really woke the Jays up I guess, they've gone 11-2 since.
