Sox until lately with slotted money per signing bonus were the cheapest in MLB when it came to money spent in player development for years. Sox are paying for this cheapness right now.

Tom Gage has an incredible stat about Victor Martinez: He hasn't been called out on a 3rd strike since last May. http://www.detroitnews.com/article/2014050...rtinez-not-take …
A great contact hitter.

Sox were 8-5 in the division. Now...8-10.
That Verlander game was the worst. And this one. And yesterday's.
Sox still not finding ways to win games like those still SOS.
Book on Abreu now is throw low and outside slider out of zone he will chase it EVERYTIME! Hope everyone enjoyed April scouts have found his weakness. RISP F'N sucks.

Just trying to figure out what they're going to do...
It's probably got to be Cleto, Webb, or Putnam.
If they DFA Cleto, I'm completely ok with that.
Cleto would be a good choice.

Yeah that's true.
Maybe Webb goes down. He's not exactly throwing a ton of strikes.
Webb is not going anywhere right now.
