Apparently has a sore back. With a 31 wRC+ and -.4 fWAR he's probably a DFA candidate if the kid is any good at all. ZIPS has really soured on TA's true talent. Thinks he's basically a 1 WAR player at best. He's toast imo.

From the perspective of flipping the SP and maybe a position player or two the season so far has been a success. That's quite the narrow grading system but if it was a pass fail they've at least passed that area. Not sure why people would be arguing otherwise. You can argue about being 18 under on May 13th or something but arguing that the flip candidates haven't been raising their value or holding it is dumb.

That's a nice story but it's insane he played baseball at that high of a level and seems to know so little about it. It's like his brain turned off from 18 when he blew out his arm until late 30s when he got back into it on the announcing side. I have nothing but respect for what Schriffen and Benetti are as people but their relative lack of experience before getting the job and the on the job training is hard to stomach as a Sox fan.

Bump.

Reality bites.

Corpseball returns.

Yes. Not great command either.

logan allen has nothing and our righties just can't do anything.

Get vaughn out of hte fucking 3 hole please.

OK Vaughn, hit it in the air please.

cannot hop it twice in there.

Good god what a terrible throw.

Vaughn gonna f*** around and leave the series with a 70 wRC+.

bad luck for pham

speak it into existence why don't you.

Ramos is slumping a bit but he came through with the glove today big time. Important quality for any player to separate defense and offense.

A year ago to the date the Sox lost 1-9 to the Royals to move to 13-25 with a -67 RD. With the win today we are 12-28, while not trying, with our two best players hurt for almost all of it with a -83 RD. Incredibly, we had already given up 232 runs in two less games at this point last year. "Only" 202 RA by our staff so far in 2 more games. That's something.

The late 80s were an interesting time for hair.

Been pretty clean baseball. That said, missed one today with Pedro not PR for Eloy. Should have been a 4-1 game. There is always an argument against pulling your better hitters early, but if you're gonna PR for him with 2 outs...

Couldn't tell if it was mean spirited or not.

Embarrassing.

Should be 4-1.
