Sad to see Banks taking what used to be Hanser Alberto’s innings.

Does he? Coming off TJS throwing 98, I think he has a shot if they would just develop him.

WTF? Why leave Lynn in there and now Crochet has to come in and face a jam. Game is over. Let Crochet get his work in by starting with a clean inning. This coaches staff sucks.

Ump isn’t doing them any favors. They’re already swinging at everything, how can he keep calling the few pitches they’re not hacking at strikes?

That first strike to Robert was ridiculous.

Get ready for the postgame Grifol comments on what a great job Lance did tonight.

2-0 pitch to a guy with zero power on the corner at best, he’s hacking. These guys have no clue.

Gavin Sheets to the KBO, who says no?

It really feels like both teams think this game is over.

2 doubles and a HR tonight so maybe things are looking up.

Forget Reinsdorf, Lance Lynn is Nightengale’s source that there’s going to be a sell off.

AJ Alexy is unplayable. 3 bb and a HBP in a third of an inning.

Now it's 2 doubles and a HR for Colas. The one time they got him out was a bullet.

The comp to Adam Engel was weird, though. Engel really struggled to hit in the low minors, but with some power and great defense. Burke is hitting .360.

Solo shot for Burke. I have to imagine that he's headed to W-S after the draft.

Is Reyes worth a shot in the on-going 4th/5th outfielder derby?

DSL Sox won again. Nice outing by someone named Denny Lima. In just short of 9 innings he now has an ERA of 2.08, 11K and 1bb. Have no idea if he's a prospect but he is only 18. Might be a follow?

I certainly fear him coming to the plate.

Lot of offensive for the two rookie ball teams. Not much pitching, except Anderson Comas who threw another scoreless inning. Anyone know what he throws? He's listed as a 6'7" lefty. That is an interesting profile.

I just cancelled. I do have a separate NYT subscription, unfortunately, I need to keep that for my work, but I'm done with The Athletic.

Kelly sucked, otoh, you're not going to win too many games with complete and utter corpseball except for one solo shot.

Man, when Kelly's bad, he's really bad.

He's there for his defense.

Alcantara's best start of the year... How many righties with a slider can say the exact same thing about facing the Sox?

Yeah, not concerned yet about a 17 year-old struggling to throw strikes. Encouraged by the 2.1 scoreless from Ysalla. Future Sox has him as an interesting sleeper. Alsinois is off to a good start. I think he may have a shot. Disappointed whenever Nunez Jr. doesn't play.
