Autumn Dreamin Posted June 14 Share Posted June 14 Maybe they'll miss not having Wilson later in the game, but I like Venable treating that as a leverage spot and going to one of his best arms accordingly. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PaleAleSox Posted June 14 Share Posted June 14 Andrew McCutchen on Twitter saying the league told him the balls are different this year. That’s why the Sox aren’t hitting homers! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't mind seeing what Civale can offer, but Vasil seems like a guy the team should be thinking about as a starter. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They don't just go from 2 to 7 innings. It looks like they're bumping him up 10 or so pitches a game. This is the first time he's finished 4 innings, right? I'm guessing they pretty much flip Vasil and Shane Smith after the All-Star game, moving SS to the bullpen, and having Vasil start. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was wondering if they could stretch him out in Charlotte, but: 1) the MLB team relies on him to a great extent and 2) my question, is he technically a rule 5 player and can't be sent down? He took a pretty interesting path after the draft, got traded then DFA'd by Tampa and didn't immediately go back to his original team. Then as I understand it, we picked him up off the waiver wire. Dunno the 'letter of the law' on this topic, but it seems like an interesting grey area...whether or not it's in his/the team's best interest to send him to Charlotte. Either way, glad he's on the team. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't think Quero scores from 2nd on Tauch's hit, and probably not from third on the Meidroth groundout either. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'll have to reconsider. I figured he was average, he's like slower than vaughn by metrics. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
