Is Ruiz the best righty in this pen?

Nobody on, 1 out in the 7th with a 5 run lead, it’s Bummer time? Shows you how little the Royals got into the Sox pen this weekend.

Ugh. He was the guy I was most excited about. So far 2021 is not as much fun as I was hoping.

I believe the Sox have limited Carlos a little to hold down his innings, hence the 2 long layoffs between starts. That said, they have 4 more years of control with Kopech. 0 with Carlos. I believe they will act accordingly.

Gonzalez is hurt too? I used to joke that Engel had a cursed doll that injured his cf competitors do he could stay in the majors. I think Billy Hamilton found it in Engel’s locker. Things are so desperate that Merkin is predicting Cespedes makes the majors this year. Meanwhile, I eagerly await his first professional ab. in other IL news, is Krogman hurt? He left mid game on Thursday then did not play last night.

Krogman 2-3 with 2 walks. Seems pretty advanced for a guy who's barely played pro ball.

Curbelo hit one earlier in the same inning. Maybe WS will be more interesting than we thought.

J Fisher HR. He's 27 now. Time flies.

I know everyone is down on WS, but check out that Birmigham lineup. Slim pickings until Cespedes is cleared.

Missouri State, I believe.

Krogman looks excellent. Nice little leg kick. It would be nice if he's a piece.

Alex McRae is still on this team?!

Ruiz looks pretty good. If every other rightie keeps struggling, he may get some big innings later in the season.

That is a Fulmer strike. 87 back to the screen.

Sheets walked on 4 pitches. Seems hitterish.

I will say nothing is a swing to this 3rd base ump.

I like the new Dylan Cease.

HR for Rutherford. He's an honorary rightfielder this evening.

HR for Krogman. 3 games, 3 HR by LH-hitting rightfielders.

That hit is totally on the 3rd base ump

HR for Mieses. Triple and homer so far. Maybe a guy to watch at WS?

Interesting for the era though, 25% K rate across baseball. At what point does defense stop mattering that much? Not now probably, but we're getting close.

Vaughn in left, Sheets in right, Abreu in center?

Nice 1st for Cease.
