4th major league start for Bobby at SS double clutch strong arm lol Let's see him make an athletic play in the hole.

94.7 even 347 feet cold grey damp day

Did they bench Amaya so they wouldn't have FOUR qualified guys in bottom 6 in mlb batting average?

Grifol will go down as worse than even Bevington. Sosa 107.3 EV 416 feet boom! swinging first pitch on a backup breaking ball 4 home runs against Paddack in April already Taylor now 0 for his last 14

Smith gets most of his strikeouts and swinging misses on his off speed stuff. Pretty crazy that he Vasil and Burke graduated from high school the same year...hadn't realized that.

Shane Smith at 95.6-97.1. Buxton has scored 22 runs against Sox in his last 23 games against them.

"White Sox on life support offensively" lol Paddack has actually been at 95-97 recently. If Twins throw in the towel on him, White Sox might bite...we sort of fixed Soroka right?

And is Bobby Dalbec the best SS option in the entire world when you had nearly two full years and two full offseaons to find just one guy who can actually field AND hit??? Robert 3 for his last 32 Twins' announcers saying he looks confused...needs to pick one pitch or area of the plate specifically to look for, instead of just guessing every pitch.

Surely Maton Sosa or Baldwin would be better options at SS than Dalbec? But no...he's played about a week or two's worth of games there in his entire career since high school. WestEddy needs to bring back that spring training chart that has Tristan Gray, Andre Lipcius and Maton with more time at SS.

“Last year, with the Red Sox spiraling in August, Dalbec was thrust into a starting shortstop role for one game. A year prior, he played two innings at the position. In the minor leagues, he spent three total innings at shortstop prior to this season, and he never played the position in college or in the Cape League. When it comes to Dalbec and the shortstop position, he may be the ultimate "break glass in case of emergency." Yet here, in just the 12th game of the season, he's the starting shortstop for the Boston Red Sox. Against the 11-0 Tampa Bay Rays.” “Legend shortstop Bobby Dalbec commits to Arizona baseball" … so there’s that And starting at short. Yes, the same Bobby Dalbec who’s made three appearances (one start) at shortstop in 275 career regular-season games at the big-league level. Chad Tracy, who’s in his second season managing the Worcester Red Sox, better known as the WooSox, is bullish about the development. “I’m excited to see that,” the WooSox skipper said on Wednesday evening. “His last one in Buffalo at short actually looked pretty good. He got five or six chances, a couple backhands, and he looked pretty good, so fingers crossed.” LoL. He did play SS in high school…but hardly at all in college.

When he was actually good

Introducing Chris “The Sheriff” Paddack RHP|#20 0 - 2|7.27 ERA 15 K If they can’t put up a crooked number against him, it’s honestly contraction time…

The Padres with him and Gore would be much better…along with CJ Abrams. But the allure of Juan Soto was just too tempting for AJ Preller, striking a blow against Dodgers’ hegemony.

Shane Smith no-no…

You can't lose a possible Cy Young winner AND Top 20 fWAR guy in Fedde and expect improvement...especially when you will refuse to bring up your three best pitching prospects due to service time considerations.

No, he sucks too. Pirates mostly.

Shane Smith and Booser are at least great "human interest" stories....and Smith can throw 95-98, touching 99-100 on occasion.

They're one more starting pitcher injury from a real crisis. That said...the Royals Twins and Guardians all seem to have taken steps back.

Both teams suck...Sox just historically bad vs. typical AL Central bad.

Maybe they can trade Benintendi if they send $10-12 million out along with him... Need a desperate contender, though.

Might want to have Shuster avoid the A's at least... Kurtz RBI single first at bat.

Opus Dei Correa just not right...

He's not even good at that, as minor league GMs are 75% creative promoters and certainly excellent sales people with high EQs. Winning percentage matters less and less going from AAA on down.

Gilbert Vasil last two guys left in the pen.
