I think his curve shows a fair amount of promise, hopefully he can develop into a solid back end pitcher.

 

Started throwing it a little better the last two batters.

bassitt is garbage

 

If you say so

bassitt is garbage

Yawn.

 

Let us take a moment to recall the following line from the 1996 feature film "The Rock"...

 

Personally, I think you're a f***ing idiot.

 

Nothing directed at you, Ron... Rather, just asking us all to remember that wonderful one liner from such an amazing movie.

Not a good start for Bassitt. I'm not sure if that's a slider he's trying to throw, but it's something that needs work on.

Viciedo with two atrocious throws...Alexis should have had kinsler at third as well.

LOL! Really. Nominate this for stupid post of the year

Uh...did Avi just PUNCH a chunk out of his bat??

Viciedo just brutal

Wait... did Dunn get dealt?

 

What would make you deduce that? Wilkins being lifted from the game for his call-up? While I find it weird that he got singled out from the AAA game, I don't think we can be lucky enough to think Dunn has been traded.

I think it's very likely. Who else would be getting dealt that would result in Wilkins getting called up?

Kid got a good hook

Why does someone have to be getting traded? Maybe they are just giving Wilkins these last couple days off before the rosters expand on Sept. 1st as a reward for a tremendous season? I mean, I hope there is a trade, but twitter is dead right now on the rumor front.

They can send Surkamp and Bassitt back down and Surkamp won't even have to leave since he'll get called back up Monday.

Ha, had to watch it again. It looked like it, but that's not possible. I think it was one of those rubber rings that they sometimes wear on their fingers.

Charlotte has 3 games left. He was in the lineup tonight, and got scratched. Something is up.

Its likely just notice for a Sept 1st call-up. Doesn't have to be trade related.

Are you sure? He grabs his bat and it looks like he runs his hand over the chunk that is missing out of it. I'm not DVRing the game, so I can't check.

Wilkins isn't on the 40 so you would think a trade is happening.

Dammit lexi

Also the Sox don't have a game on Monday, so there's no point in making call ups official until Tuesday 9/2. With the Dunn/Konerko/Abreu coverage at DH/1B, there's no point in bringing Wilkins up for tomorrow other than something actually happening. Just my humble opinion.

The obvious answer here is that we've traded Andy Wilkins. lol.

Nicely done

Great play by Sanchez

Yeah it really points to something happening. Maybe Dunn is just going to retire.

 

Avi's got to get his hands on top of the fastball. He hasn't been able to do that on the 89 mph fastballs from Ryan.
