    Cleveland 4/23, Houck Yeah, It's Tanner Time

    Yes, but the follow up is "Then why isn't he in the lineup coming off his best game of the year?"

    Cleveland 4/23, Houck Yeah, It's Tanner Time

    Sure, I mean two games of production vs. a career's worth of mediocrity against RHP would have me throwing Refsnyder out there too. Joining the chorus of "what the hell is up with Yoshida?" Would love to have a Boston reporter, you know, ask about it.

    Casas has a left rib fracture. He will be out "a while." (4/23 update)

    But whatever they are going to do, it makes absolutely zero sense to have Heineman on the 26-man roster. Where would his at bats come from? There are enough fungible players on the 40-,man -- including Heineman himself -- and a Kavadas, Sogard, Westbrook, Meidroth, even Hickey -- would be more...

    4/20/2024 - High on the Red Sox supply (of prospects)

    Grissom went 2-for-4 with a SB in the nightcap, a 4-3 loss. Bring him up, quick!

    Pittsburgh 4/19, On the Road Again

    Any time you can stick Refsnyder in the three hole against a RHP, you gotta do it.

    Cam Booser called up and added to 40 man. Joe Jacques optioned

    Jacques doesn't deserve to be on any MLB 40-man, even if Loogies were still a thing.

    4/18 vs Guardians

    Oh, you mean O'Neill, not Yoshida. Sorry.

    4/18 vs Guardians

    I don't think we have a 7-day DL to put him on.

    4/18 vs Guardians

    That is one ugly lineup.

    4/17 vs Guardians

    Is he allergic to the new larger bases? This could be a medical problem.

    March/April: Red Sox discussion, observations and trend tracking...AKA It's not all about the Benjamins

    We already have two losses that would have been wins if Story was still playing SS. It's ... disheartening. And can someone remind me what we saw in Pablo Reyes last year, because he hasn't looked like a Major Leaguer at any point thus far.

    Red Sox, Ceddanne Rafaela agree to contract extension

    I'm getting 2007 Dustin Pedroia vibes from Rafaela. Pedroia started his rookie year batting .172 with a .536 OPS and two RBI in April. People wanted to bench him for Alex Cora, everyone complained that his swing was too big -- including Jerry Remy, if I remember correctly -- and then he hit over...

    2024 Worcester Red Sox (AAA)

    Am I looking in the wrong place, or is there no mention of last night's WooSox one-hitter? Are the minor league game threads dead? Jason "Costanza" Alexander with six hitless innings (7K, 2BB), then Jorge Benitez -- who threw the ball really well in spring training -- pitched a hitless 7th...

    The TrevorEnding Story: needs shoulder surgery, out for the year (4/9 update)

    Not really a Red Sox season until someone suggests we bring back Iglesias.

    March/April: Red Sox discussion, observations and trend tracking...AKA It's not all about the Benjamins

    Is Casas still doing his thing where he tells the umpire what he thinks the call really should be? Because he has consistently been the one hosed by the umps thus far this year and, I mean, if I was the ump, I might be annoyed and inclined to stretch the strike zone a little too.

    Let's Kut to the Chase

    The problem will be if one or more of them are arrested for hiring a hit man to eliminate Joely Rodriguez ...
