It already happened when Sheets fell down. That means it can never happen again.

Just catching up right now. It is amazing how many 1, 2, 3 innings the Sox have had today. 14 baserunners in a doubleheader. Kind of amazing they scored 7 runs.

Mena gives up a run thanks to a walk and a bleeder. Exit velocity probably around 40.

5K for Mena through 2.

Man, not easy to walk Colas and Robert in the same inning.

Burger time!

They gotta call this thing, right?

NP Alexander Womack is the worst defensive first baseman I have ever seen. Has dropped a soft liner and two throws so far this game. Both from Wes Kath.

Oppo taco for Kath.

OF assist for Veras, great catch by Gladney. Those conversions seem to be working.

With Colas and Sosa in mlb and Montgomery and Ramos hurt, it is really shocking how few prospects the Sox have. It seems like 80% of every team in their system is made up of 25 y.o. non-prospect types who were $10,000 senior signs. it makes following the minors pretty boring.

Yeah, I have him in my top 30. If he controls the strike zone a little better, he could play in the bigs. Definitely has mlb size.

Yeah, he has not looked impressive thus far in this one.

Mena was supposed to go last night but has been sick all week. No idea if it is Covid or non-Covid, though.

With Haseley up, is Romy going down? It would be nice to have a real back up outfielder. Reyes has also looked good at Charlotte, so they may be able to find a fifth outfielder type off what they have.

The over/under on Sheets falling down is 1.5.

Or the general manager? It is possible to seek out players in the draft, as free agents, and in trades who have lower O-swing rates. That information is publicly available. For heaven’s sake, they drafted three “polished” college bat-first players in Burger, Madrigal, and Vaughn. All of them are swing first players. I guess I should be grateful for Montgomery.

I think the two go hand-in-hand. It is hard to hit for power swinging at pitcher's pitches.

What the heck is going on with Cespedes? He has 2 walks tonight, which gives him 8 for the year. He had only 29 all last year. Coincidentally, being more selective has given him much better results. If this keeps up, he may have a chance.

Kanny up 6-0 HR for Luis Pineda. Is he a prospect? Catcher, young for the level. He was decent in ACL last year.

Charlotte 3-0. Hamilton down to .077. Sox should fire Boston and make Billy the first base coach.

I am Team Sosa, so happy to see him hitting it hard 3 times and throwing some leather out there. Imagine what this team could do if they ever got more walks than they gave out.

8 walks in back to back games. Kinda tough to win like that.

How many bullpens walk in runs in multiple innings? Not many, I bet.

Graveman never seems to have a clean inning.
