Timmy U

Ha ha, padding those stats.

Cheer up, it could be the next Madrigal.

Good for him. I haven’t seen much of him. I assume he’s a backend strike thrower dominating young guys? Anyone have a scouting report on him?

Infield of the future!

Not to overlook Lynn sucking, but the offense today has also been pathetic.

Chances that Hanser Alberto's last appearance in a Sox uni will be today in long relief?

I wonder if Hahn has his answer yet about whether this is a playoff team.

Ump certainly wants to get this over with.

Get this team off this team.

Grifol is punishing Lynn.

Rare to be able to say after 6 runs in 3 innings, it could have been worse. 10 baserunners in the first 2.1. He could have given up 10 today. Bring on the garbage innings.

Go to Scholtens and then send him down? Gotta have someone throw bulk today.

Is Lynn gonna make it through this inning?

He may be toast, but they rushed him into the season with basically no spring training. It's possible he was not physically ready.

Helluva play by Romy there.

Man, Romy could have caught that. He has some kinda range.

Tyler Anderson can't complain about the zone -- he had a huge plate tonight.

Vaughn a different animal with men on base.

Actually, now Kelley has 3IP 0H 1R 1 ER 1bb 6K. He walked a guy on a 3-2 pitch, he stole 2nd on a close call, balked to 3rd then stole home. Kelley has struck out 6 of his last 7 hitters. Throwing a ton of strikes. His change up is a weapon.

Burke is done 5IP 2H 1R 1ER 4bb 8K 84 pitches. He looked really good, but has to throw more strikes.

Kelley 3IP in relief tonigh 0bb!!! 3K.

So Burke walked the first 3 guys in the inning. The last two guys were competitive at bats, but he got out of it with 1 run. The stuff looks really good, but he loses his release point on his fastball at times. There's a real bad Kopech/Cease vibe. If he's around the zone, I could see him pitching in the majors. Would dominate Sox lineup cuz they would swing at everything. Meanwhile, Tatum 1-1 with a walk 1R, sb, the time he didn't score he got to third on an error. He really is a pest.

Spoke too soon. Burke walked the first 2 guys in the 4th.

Burke is off to a nice start for Charlotte: 3IP 1H 0R 0ER 1bb 5K.

Excited for Ramos. I do not know what the Temp. IL is. Isn't every placement on the (non-fatal) IL Temp?
