Is expected to miss at least 2-3 months. Edited April 2 by caulfield12 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gavin Sheets hitting fifth ahead of Xander Bogaerts Farm Boy is crushing it. It's 30 plate appearances so we'll see if it continues, but it's a huge indictment on the org if he has a .800+ ops season with San Diego. Like it'll be the most obvious evidence to me that the Sox cannot produce hitters. watched Greg Santos give up a walkoff the other night. Then walk a bunch of guys the next day. I wonder if the 1.59 ERA can be sustained with a 5.71 FIP. Maybe he stops walking guys because his stuff looks...better. Tim Hill continues to have a role with one of the best teams in baseball. Brebbia hasn't given up a run this year, pitching 3 scoreless innings against us (easy to do). I guess my point is, why are all these guys better on other teams? I thought we had the pitcher whisperer. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Autumn Dreamin Posted April 8 Share Posted April 8 Reylo had shoulder surgery today. Re-evaluation in 12 weeks to see if he will be able to return late this season. https://www.mlbtraderumors.com/2025/04/reynaldo-lopez-to-be-shut-down-for-12-weeks.html Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
caulfield12 Posted April 9 Share Posted April 9 (edited) Dylan Cease was spotted a 3 run lead and immediately surrendered 5 to the A's and it's still the bottom of the 1st. That Sacramento stadium is definitely going to provide huge offensive numbers as it heats up in the summer months. Make that 2 outs and 6 runs. ERA up to 7.94. Cease leaves with 3 IP, 9 earned runs, 8.56 ERA (about where Jon Adkins was when he was traded for Ray Durham, lol) Edited April 9 by caulfield12 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

caulfield12 Posted April 15 Share Posted April 15 (edited) Dylan Cease has given up 15 runs in his first 20.33 IP over 4 starts (6.64 era) but Padres still looking to go to 14-3 due to Sheets and Tatis, largely. Martin Maldonado popped a bunt up with runners on the corners and one out lol. https://www.si.com/mlb/padres/san-diego-padres-news/new-padres-slugger-was-blindsided-to-be-cut-by-former-team-it-fueled-me-a-little-bit Sheets told Jeff Sanders of the San Diego Union-Tribune the move was shocking for him. However, he understands these types of moves are part of the business aspect of professional baseball. “I didn’t see it coming,”Sheets said to Sanders recently. “But it’s part of the game. It’s part of where they’re at.” “Looking back at it now, it fueled me a little bit to say the least,” Sheets said. “I thought that where they were at and where I was at, we could work together.” “But as soon as it happened, I was kind of excited about getting a fresh start somewhere, getting somewhere where (I could) hopefully get back to winning,” Sheets said.

caulfield12 Posted April 15 Share Posted April 15 That work carried over with Padres hitting coach Victor Rodriguez, who roomed with Larry Sheets in their early days in the Orioles’ system. Still, the younger Sheets was mired in a 3-for-24 start in spring training and was not in the lineup the day the Padres bused to Maryvale for an exhibition against the Brewers. So Sheets hunkered down in the batting cage in Peoria with Rodriguez, assistant hitting coach Mike McCoy and sports science director Nathan Landau. Sheets considers himself a mix of old school and new school, a hitter who likes when the data matches what he feels. He took hundreds swings that day, and something clicked. “It just showed me some stuff in my posture with my body, getting it to move in a better direction, getting it to be in a better spot to where I can fire off my ‘A’ swing,” Sheets said of the biomechanics help. “If I can clean up my posture and know where my body is at all times, I feel like I can get off my ‘A’ swing. Just getting my body more athletic and using it in my swing in the right way.” The real work was making it stick. “You’re trying to break an old habit,” Sheets said, “so I just sat there and hit and hit and hit and hit. … We were just trying to make the muscle memory as quick as possible.” https://www.sandiegouniontribune.com/2025/04/03/gavin-sheets-fitting-in-quickly-with-padres-and-having-fun-too/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Autumn Dreamin Posted April 25 Share Posted April 25 Gregory Santos looked finally healthy in spring after being limited to just 7.1IP last year, but got off to an awful start this season. 5.14 ERA (2.29 WHIP) in 7 innings. 8 hits, 8 walks, and 0 (!!!) strikeouts in 36 batters faced before SEA optioned him to AAA last week.

oldsox Posted April 27 Share Posted April 27 This weekend I was wandering thru a list of games that I had no interest in, and I came across Alex Call in a game for the Nats. I looked him up, and he can actually hit. If anyone is wondering, we got Alonso for him 7 years ago. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Call had a big double to start the ninth today (his PR scored the tying run). Good to see him doing well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, I know, just like Eder didn't have nearly enough days rostered at the big league level to qualify. WestEddy declared a victory today for OPSing about 650, which is still WELL below average for a legit big league 3B. For the Sox, it makes him the second best player statistically after Matt Thaiss.

Also his daughter was born with Down syndrome right after the season ended, you have to think he has bigger things on his mind than baseball. hope he can turn it back on.
