Saw Eloy catch a few fly balls in LF. He's never going to get mistaken for Alex Gordon out there, but he looked fine.

Have a feeling Cubs are gonna use Happ and more of their young position players to get a big time pitcher. I know there are rumors of DeGrom, and they started playing Bote in LF in the minors in case Happ is dealt.

I noticed there was a mound visit before an official batter in the top of the 2nd and thought it was odd.

Is Getz there?

Should be an automatic hit and run if anyone is on base. To be fair, his chopping ability is also why I don't think he'll ever put up significant ISO numbers.

I'm aware, just seems like another situation where a loss here or there could have really given the Sox a chance at a better player in the long run (i.e..Benintendi)

Don't disagree, especially with Adell and Hiura looking like studs

A lot would have to go wrong for that to happen

Best prospect in baseball according to KLaw today. Well done Sox

Pilkington debuted for AZL tonight

Brad Goldberg in to face Barons. I forgot he was in the majors last year, and forgot he had an impressive 14/3 walk to K ratio

So I see unrealistic trade proposal season is back and crazier than ever

I believe 21 of his last 28 pitches were strikes as he retired last ten he faced

Another terrible start for Hansen. He just can't get things going in the right direction this year. Still have my doubts he's completely healthy. If not, junior year at Oklahoma Hansen is back. so far, 2 IP with 4 runs, 6 walks 24 of 55 pitches for strikes

Also facing two LHP vs Mariners could be a reason Engel lives on

Small sample size but his curve was more controlled last night

If he finishes strong, he'll move up a lot. The Futures Game definitely didn't hurt his reputation

It's impressive considering no Hansen, Rutherford, Adolfo, Basabe or Collins as well as Burger being hurt. Still amazes me that Cease isn't a top 30 guy.

You know he would love a former college QB

We all know Kenny wanted Kyler Murray

Eloy oppo dong

Exactly what it reminded me of.

Rutherford hit in the right hand with a pitch. Staying in the game but definitely swollen. I'm sure XRays to come

So refs kicks someone out of match and then same wrestler comes back out to interfere and ref allows interference and match is over soon after?

Heck I'm probably the low man on this board when it comes to Madrigal and the slow start isn't shocking. Wouldn't surprise me if he's pressing now, as between the CWS and his first week in professional baseball, I doubt he's ever had 1 hit in like 25 at bats.
