Not sure what's going on, but maybe Elih Marrero is hurt? It shows Hickey from DH to catcher & Wikelman into the batting order for Marrero (even though he isn't even in the game anymore).
Miller did bat, & struck out.

Do those more knowledgeable think C-Note will get a cup of coffee with Boston in September or do we think he'll have to wait until next year to get a shot?
I think a lot of people think he will get a cup of coffee, but honestly, I think he finishes the year in AAA. He needs every day at bats to continue working on his plate approach, and I don't think he can do that at the MLB level with the Sox outfield being as packed as it is.

De La Rosa allowed a hit & a walk in the c3rd, but no runs & struck out 2 more.
Noah Dean came in for the 4th. After an excellent 1st relief outing he appears to be back to doing Noah Dean things...

Yeah, the conventional wisdom I've heard is they'll bring up Blizzard as a pinch runner with the extra spot.

I think he's only really likely to get called up if Duvall or Refsnyder get hurt. Who knows, though?

Joey Stock miraculously pitched 2 scoreless innings so his manager was like you know what would be a good idea? More Joey Stock!

Narrator: it was not a good idea.

Homer

Felix Cepeda is still great at not allowing his own runs, but he allowed both of Stock's to score.

Garrett Ramsey just gets beat up.

Maybe I'll start doing performances of the day. The pitching bar is quite low today...

1) RP Andres Jimenez (DSL Red) 3.1 innings, 0 runs, 0 hits, 1 walk, 6 strikeouts

2) SP Wandy Abreu (FCL) - 5 IP, 1 hit, 1 unearned run, 2 walks, 1 strikeout (W)

3) SP Luis De La Rosa (A) - 3 IP, 0 runs, 1 hit, 2 walks, 7 strikeouts

4) RP Ruben De La Cruz (DSL Blue) - 1 IP, 0 runs, 0 hits, 0 walks, 3 strikeouts (S)

5) RP Simon Pacheco (FCL) - 1 IP, 0 runs, 0 hits, 1 walk, 3 strikeouts (S)

This would be fun on other days. Not so much today lol

I thought about Troye & Cepeda. Cepeda allowed 2 inherited runners to score. They were probably 6 & 7. Not an impressive day of pitching in the org. Pretty good for the Sox, though.
