The reference is to the broken ankle, I believe.

Crochet DeJong Fedde Vaughn Pillar listed among Top 13 trade candidates at MLB.com
The O’s are in an interesting place as they’re WS contenders who will not be able to hold onto Henderson (Boras client) and who have some older core pieces (Santander, Burnes) ready to leave. Adjusting to mlb these days takes a while. Will they have the patience to take a step back and let an older prospect like Kjerstad get the at bats he needs to make the adjustment? Or are they going to prioritize winning this year? I would trade him and keep Cowser, but they seem like dead enders on all of their guys. I do not believe the Sox will be trading with them.

Good lord, this ump suuuucks.

I actually do not understand the thinking here. It’s not like Thorps is guaranteed to give you length tomorrow. Are they gonna send someone down and bring up a fresh arm to back up Thorpe? If you burn out the pen today, Mendick may have to go 7 tomorrow

Ha ha. Strike 3 on Vaughn was like a foot outside.

Maldonado is a coach on the field. Especially when he has a bat in his hands.

If Cags is 1b only, I would go Griffin. That said, a lefty hitting Pete Alonso would be a valuable player.

Baltimore. I think anybody for anybody else, Baltimore says no.

Kyle Stowers is currently a single short of the cycle. He’s the next Joey Ortiz—26 year old guy that Baltimore basically has to move cuz he is unlikely to play much for them moving forward. Likewise, he does not fit into Sox timeline. Seems like a future Oakland/Sacramento/Vegas A to me.

Nastrini out after 1.2IP 2H 6R 5ER 2bb 1HBP 1HR. Left with bases loaded and 2 out. Joe Barlow is not good, so that did not help.

Early game for Charlotte, Nastrini is struggling.

Another HR for Baldwin. I don’t care about prospect rankings, the guy is good.

Keuchel gave up 5 earnies in 4 innings. He may not be the answer for the Brew Crew. Fedde would be a good get for them.

Sox will get slot value for the 10th pick but then slot value for the 1st pick in subsequent rounds.

The whole team has been slumping, Gonzalez most of all. A lot of it is batted ball luck as his K rate has not jumped or anything. The offensive environment in the Southern League is really rough, so when you’re not swinging it, you can get buried.

How do you let Lopez hit in that situation?!

Baldwin starting tonight in LF. They are serious about the versatility thing. First outfield start in a long time, not just this year.

4bb in 2IP so far for Burke. Somehow, they haven't scored.

Story on Sox trade possibilities...
Those would not be bad deals for the Sox. Personally, I think Basallo’s bat is pretty far ahead of his glove and that he ends up at 1b. But a lot of good gets in those packages.

Story on Sox trade possibilities...
Yes to Clifford, who the Sox apparently liked in that draft. Personally not a fan of Gilbert.

I have watched Termarr Johnson play A LOT. He walks. That is his only skill. He was supposed to be a 70 hitter. Thus far he is nowhere near that. He's 2b only and subpar there. You need an aircraft carrier in return for Robert, not a multitude of questionable guys. Why make this trade when you can just draft JJ Wetherholt? Hard. Pass.
