    Wilyer Abreu to be called up

    April 24. 2024 Beat the Heat

    Heat just seem like a bad matchup for the C’s. They aren’t afraid of the C’s, and the C’s seemed spooked by them. Spoelstra expects to win this series, and he might.

    What to do with Yoshida?

    Yes? 2nd percentile defensively last year. If he was hitting well, maybe you’d learn to live with it. https://baseballsavant.mlb.com/savant-player/masataka-yoshida-807799

    What to do with Yoshida?

    Yoshida sitting on Sunday is likely simply a result of Martin Perez having pretty big splits; he’s much tougher on lefties than righties. So get the RH bat in there and give Yoshida a day off. Yes he had been doing well in the games right before that, but was unlikely to do so well against...

    The Amazing Criswell?

    Yeah, I guess you are right. I don’t really want Yoshida playing instead of Abreu, Duran, or O’Neill. Duran at 2b seems unlikely, with Grissom back soon and probably increases Duran’s risk of injury. Don’t see any obvious OF who could play 1B (besides Refsnyder). A LH backup OF / DH just isn’t a...

    Bello to IL with lat tightness

    Agreed, which makes the solid start fairly encouraging. They are playing hard even with the lack of talent on the roster.

    2024 PROMOTIONS (& demotions) Thread

    Makes sense. I guess the silver lining here is the big league club is getting looks at a lot of different guys, for better or worse.

    The Amazing Criswell?

    Yeah, this seems like it. Is Devers situation likely to change, though? Seems like he’s going to need a lot of time off, at least in the field, which makes Yoshida a difficult fit on the roster. Eventually they may have to suck it up and play him in LF.

    2024 PROMOTIONS (& demotions) Thread

    1 H and O R with 10 Knin 9 Worcester innings….but also, 8 walks. Feels like he’s up mostly because the other options aren’t great (Gutierrez or Uwasawa?) but hopefully he makes the most of the opportunity. Never know when it might be the last one.

    Bello to IL with lat tightness

    They are getting really close to running out of available players on the 40-man to even call up.

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

    If you add up the batting averages of Rafaela, Dalbec, and Valdez- it’s one point lower than Wade Boggs career average with the Sox.

    That’s a really insightful and interesting article. Thank you for sharing.

    2024 Rotation and Bullpen

    Pretty phenomenal. Can’t really argue with a 13-10 record; of course the pitching has been better than anyone’s wildest dreams, but the offense has been fairly middling in the opposite direction. At this point, I imagine most folks have to be pretty happy while acknowledging that it’s going to...

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

    He’s also hitting 123/206/140

    Which Current MLBers Will Be In the Hall of Fame?

    I think he’s borderline; that last terrible year didn’t help him. I think he’s in the group of guys like Jon Lester who weren’t quite as good as the Scherzer / Greinke / Verlander / Kershaw, who are locks. Maybe they make it in by some veterans committee years down the road; since after those...

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

    Nothing better than seeing an unlikely MLB debut, and watching the player nail it.
