Martin and Savery released (they had already been sent out)

Hopefully they pull the plug on Brad Penny and just get it over with.

Cuts are happening right now, with Beck among them.

90 or 91. They won't a need a win the last weekend.

Nevermind. Abreu isn't playing, and this better mean nothing. https://twitter.com/ChiTribKane/status/582569394129104896

All divisions suck

Noesi vs Bauer Opening Day starters with Alexei batting 5th and Avi batting 6th.

Back to normal stuff... 49 and cloudy for the home opener Next Monday in KC...74 and morning rain Looks good for Charlotte on Friday, and nice over the weekend in KC for the workouts.

C'mon, Merk. Whattaya doin' to us? https://twitter.com/scottmerkin/status/582312491553681408 Let's see...a second backup infielder or another bullpen arm? Uh....you take the bullpen arm!

Hawk started saying who he thought Fry reminded him of, and he said some old-timey righthander. To me, his motion reminded me of Greg Hibbard.

After Carroll's outing, and all of the other factors, Brad Penny may have thrown his last pitch---or it's coming before Friday.

https://twitter.com/CSNHayes/status/582300583329079297 Send him to Charlotte! No really, his next start is in Charlotte.

Jace Fry looks like he could go to AA right now and be fine.

QUOTE (Mike F. @ Mar 29, 2015 -> 02:20 PM) I'm pretty sure Petricka was slated to be the set-up guy for Robertson. If he isn't ready, who would take his place? Putnam and Duke, depending on matchups.

Hopefully by the time the Sox get to Detroit, the roster is at 100% strength, and they aren't 2-6.

Wonder if that's Wilkins scratched off the scorecard?

40-man at 39

Good dude. Hope he keeps pitching as long as 30+ starts/ 200+ innings continues. Don't retire with gas in the tank. It would be ironic if he got his 200th win at Yankee Stadium a week from Wednesday.

Drabek has reported to camp and will throw a bullpen today.

https://twitter.com/ChiTribKane/status/582204953717911552 Pretty sure Carroll is starting, and Robertson is supposed to go today if he is ok.

Rodon isn't making the team, but it would be nice if he was there to go 2-4 innings every three to five days, and at the end of the year, he's pitched in 45-50 games with about 140 important innings. But that's not baseball right now, so it won't happen.

QUOTE (oldsox @ Mar 28, 2015 -> 06:06 PM) Yep. 6 runs in 1/3 inning. Maybe he's working on his change up. He should work on throwing strikes and making the team.

It would probably be the wrong thing to do, but the bullpen would look a lot better with Rodon than Cleto. Maybe they just take Drabek.

We're getting close. 5 days until they leave Arizona. Pretty safe to say we know the lineup: Eaton, Cabrera, Abreu, LaRoche, Garcia, Ramirez, Gillaspie, Flowers, Johnson Bench: Bonifacio, Beckham, Shuck, Soto Rotation: Samardzija, Quintana, Danks, Noesi Bullpen: Albers, Cleto, Guerra, Jennings, Putnam, Petricka, Duke, Robertson DL: Sale, Crain Still to be cut: Asencio, Beck, Carroll, Drabek, E Johnson, Leon, Penny, Rodon, Surkamp, Kottaras, Sanchez, Beltre With Johnson, Soto, and Albers being added to the 40-man, I would guess Drabek and Surkamp are good bets to be outrighted or traded, and if I had to guess a third...maybe Wilkins?
