August 20, 20232 yr Author Harold (anyone), you know anything about Nishida playing centerfield? Perhaps getting comfortable defensively delayed his playing? Is this a permanent/long term thing or just expanding his options? How does the arm play?

August 20, 20232 yr W-S wins 8-4. Sweep 6 game series. Brooks Baldwin 3-5 and he looks pretty good playing ss. He’s not a huge impact guy, but I definitely think he belongs in the latter half of the Top 30. 2022 draft looking darn good.
August 20, 20232 yr Eder after walking the first batter on 4 straight balls, gets a ground out and 2 Ks in the first.
August 20, 20232 yr Eder gives up a cheap run in the 3rd. Batter reaches on an IF single on a very close play. He was picked off and CS for the final out, but the ump called him safe. Montgomery seemed pretty sure he got him, and he looked out to me at game speed, but no replay in AA obviously. He scored from second on a single. 5Ks for him through 3IP. The pick off play: Edited August 20, 20232 yr by Autumn Dreamin
August 20, 20232 yr Eder can’t get anyone out in the 4th. Some bad luck, but he gave up a massive 3 run homer. Barons trail 5-1.

This sounds bleak till you remember that the season ends in two weeks and he’s only missing two starts. I saw someone ask if the Sox would consider sending him to the AFL to make up innings? I think that’s really aggressive, we have to remember that there’s instructs after the season and hopefully we can take part in those. With what’s been reported, I don’t think this injury will impact his innings target for next season.

August 21, 20232 yr Let's hope they're working on something with Eder and that's why he's struggled so much.
August 21, 20232 yr No way you want to put Eder into the pressure cooker of the AFL unless he's 100%... That's just putting him under more scrutiny and inviting more comparisons with Burger. Just sent him to AZ or maybe Winter Ball if he's up for it.
August 21, 20232 yr Eder coming here and getting lit up is weird. He wasn't doing great with the Marlins but he wasn't doing terrible either. He went from meh to bad.

He went from meh to bad. Eder is a broken prospect that needs a ton of work. There is a reason the Marlins traded him away.
