I guess Brent Rooker would be the 99% outcome for Elko. That statcast data is super interesting.

The Perez part of this is bad. Now, Sox need a fifth starter for the rest of the year. Iriarte may get first crack, but I would be shocked if he is any good. Maybe B. Wilson? I wonder if this hastens Schultz’s timetable to July or something. Crazy all the TJs.

Braden Montgomery’s arm is a 70 or maybe higher. He has an absolute cannon. Held a runner on a single to center by throwing a pea chest high to the catcher. One of the better outfield arms in all of baseball. Bonemer has looked very good in the field. Strong arm. No doubt he stays on the left side. I think he’s made one error this year. Fast runner, so he currently has plenty of range but he is a huge guy, so I can see why people say he may not profile there. They both are what it looks like. Good scouting by the Sox.

Huh. Iriarte has looked like crap every time out this year. There’s very little on his fastball and his command has been awful. Of the two, Nastrini has been better and he’s on the 40 man too. This would be a head scratcher, especially since they need someone in that spot moving forward. I would still do Vasil or B. Wilson, but maybe this is with an eye to the long term.

My thought is that Braden Montgomery looks like a stud. Bonemer looks just as good or better. That can’t be a bad thing. Teel is more of a decent regular, maybe with occasional all star potential. He is not as athletically gifted as those other guys.

Zavala looks way better. Just got robbed with the bases loaded. He is being more aggressive at the plate, which he needed. 1-3 today but is contacting the ball. 6-2 W-S

Based on stuff, Booser is probably best bet for closer. Good win. Happy to see my former Baron stars, Baldwin and Quero, helping out.

I disagree. High school player expected to be a top round pick who was up and down in his senior year looking this good is only for the good. Tools wise Bonemer > Montgomery > Teel, so having the guy with the loudest tools thrive is all good. I love my looks at Braden, btw. But the question with Bonemer was the swing. High school players jump up ranking in low A all the time. Hard for a college guy to do that, but again, Bonemer is 19 and really looks like he belongs.

Kanny just so good offensively. 6 base runners already in 1.2. 2 bb for Bonemer. By the all star break, he may be Sox top prospect. Braden Montgomery bb and a great throw from cf so far. They lead 2-1. Coul’ve scored more, but they have a great team approach.

The Nick Maton love is really absurd. I’m not convinced he’s better than Lipcius, let alone Edgar Quero. 32 wins, here we come!

So, am I supposed to be jealous of Caglianone for the slam, or grateful we passed cuz 1-24? Kinda spilt milk at this point. AA was an aggressive assignment for a guy with his approach issues. KC fell for AZ performance where breakers don’t break. He’s gonna be fascinating, but not really Sox issue.

He was assigned to Kanny, but he’s hurt. I do not know the exact nature of the injury.

Seems like they want him to work on something. Swing and miss? Kanny hitting coach very well respected

Braden Montgomery HR. Easy power.

W-S now up only 7-5. Not a lot of pitching in A ball.

Massive HR for Wolkow. 418 ft 8-3 Kanny

Jeral Perez with a BOMB. 7-0 W-S. Perez 4HR, 3 in this series. Heating up.

Zavala suddenly looks quite a bit better. He’s swinging it more and looks hitterish. 2-2 so far tonight.

With this move literally Owen White is the only guy on the 40 man who isn’t hurt, already in mlb, or completely ineffective. With all the Sox pitching depth coming into the season, it really looks like they’re gonna have 2 Rule 5 picks in the rotation. There really is no such thing as a pitching prospect.

As predicted, Perez to IL. Shuster up. https://www.mlbtraderumors.com/2025/04/martin-perez-headed-for-mri-with-forearm-soreness.html

That’s what I’d do.

This doesn’t sound good. I guess they try to stretch out either Vasil or Bryce Wilson and bring up Shuster cuz he’s on the 40? Does this open the door for more Clevinger? Feels like this team is gonna get worse before it gets better.

Fun capper to this nonsense: Jeral Perez hit a two run shot in the 10th to seal the game for W-S. Nice little player. Would not trade Fedde and Kopech for him alone. But that’s where we are.

Zavala with 2b and 3b. W-S up 5-0.

From what I've seen so far, I really like Bonemer. Looks like a college guy. He's 19.
