    Not the strongest outfield in AAA. Oh, that's our MLB outfield.

    Kind of amazing that Quero has an OPS of .471. And that it's not the lowest of anyone batting this inning.

    corpse ball

One too many hangers

No reason Feede should of still been pitching

Edited by Soxfest

Just keep it at one. Angels bullpen will blow it sooner or later.

Favorite misconception is that the elevated breaking pitches don't move. Usually, they do. Statcast shows that home run ball moved exactly the average amount for Fedde's sweepers. Problem was throwing it right down the middle.

No way should they be losing this game

Still an excellent outing from Fedde, bats need to pick him up

Bullpen has been used a lot

I'm not upset with Fedde still being out there given that he was doing fine and the pen isn't exactly deep

You’re also going to be able to drive higher pitches better when you don’t have to go down and get them

I 100% approve of Kelenic using Boston for his walk up

If one on Mune, Colson or Vargas hit a HR the rest of this game Sox win 🍀Beni put it up in the wind. Didnt quite carry it out.

One interesting thing is breaking pitches at the very top of the zone tend to perform pretty well, much like other pitches on the various edges of the zone. They're aided partly by looking like they will miss high. I think we will see some more pitchers trying to grab strikes with the higher-than-high curveball in particular. But middle of the zone is pretty much always bad no matter what you're throwing. And yeah part of the point of same-handed breaking pitches is that it ends up in a place that you can't possibly reach so it doesn't really matter whether the batter sees it "correctly" since they can't possible make contact without throwing the bat.

kelenic was obviously on the juice as a prospect. he's shrunk like a popped balloon.

this angels bullpen is horrific, wow.

Need a big hit

Off day tomorrow

Come on Chase boost that miniscule RBI total.

Not with awful swings like that

So awful

Just awful at bats with RISP. I can’t wait until all these slap hitters are gone. Out with Quero, Meidroth, Ant and Acuna. Welcome the likes of Teel, BMont, Bonemer and Roch.

Hard for me to complain too much about Chase's overall level of production at the plate but he definitely looks caught in-between. I think he's got a small dose of what's afflicting Quero which is that the Sox have encouraged him to make some tweaks to find some more power but he's not seeing any benefit from it...while getting some of the downside in the form of added whiff and less bat control.

Vargas has been horrible against big velo

Dont know about that one but no review.
