What a bonehead play

Geez, Louise.

Rodon is getting squeezed a bit.

Nice overall game by Collins.

Nik Turley is not the answer. No matter what the question is.

Interesting that Cease said he made an adjustment, because he was a completely different guy in the 5th.

Fulmer throwing strikes. Delivery looks better.

Change up? Curve? Whatever that last pitch was, it was nasty.

Bleah. Billy Hamilton.

Another good looking ab by Collins. Winker stuck his glove up and lucked out on that one.

Collins continues to look good.

Man, Cease is different when he gets ahead.

Those are two of the weakest hits in history. Death by a thousand cuts.

Collins!

He might want to throw 50% breaking balls. Both curve and slider are good. Command is good. Fastball is the problem

God Hamilton sucks.

This is hard to watch. Sox are up for like a minute and a half, then the Reds bat for 20 minutes.

Yeah. He does not look good. It’s tough cuz Lynn and Rodon are both signed for this year only, so if Cease can’t make it, they have a lot of slots long term.

I live in NYC. I watch the Mets. Cespedes has lost all bat speed. Gets beat on the fastball. Think Encarnacion with a broken leg. That’s why he’s available.

I just want to point out, in Eloy's defense, that plenty of very good outfielders get hurt trying to rob homers. Gold glover Luis Robert broke his wrist doing the exact same thing in spring training. It's not like Eloy tripped on his own shoelaces and dislocated his shoulder on a Gatorade bucket. I get we're supposed to hate Eloy for his subpar defense, but blaming him for giving max effort on that play just doesn't seem fair to me.

I hope you're wrong. I'd much rather watch anyone in left field -- and I do mean anyone -- than Billy Hamilton.

Well, now Vaughn has to make the team. Williams is your leftfielder, right? or are we bringing back Sheets?

DAMMIT!

What the heck are you talking about? His arm swing was too long, he was throwing across his body, and had no consistent delivery. He was like a different guy every time he took the mound. Sometimes it was two-seamers and sliders. Sometimes 4 seamers and a loopy curve. I have always been a fan, but even at Charlotte, he was a mess.

Maybe ever. He throws strikes like this, that slider is going to be tough on guys.
