“We have internal options” is basically what he’s saying.Couple of good long at-bats from O'Neill and Abreu to draw walks, then Enmanuel lined an RBI single to make it 1-0 Sox.
Breslow will be the on-air guest on NESN next inning, so we'll get to see how he spins the Giolito injury.
Whitlock drives me nuts. He’s basically a good 3 inning pitcher every third day. Can’t go long enough to start, can’t pitch every other day to be a good reliever.And as Bres pushes the internal options, Whitlock gives up 2 quick runs.
Whitlock was good as a high-leverage reliever in 2021. Since then they have tried to make him a multi-inning reliever and a starter, but he hasn't stayed healthy or pitched effectively consistently in those roles.Whitlock drives me nuts. He’s basically a good 3 inning pitcher every third day. Can’t go long enough to start, can’t pitch every other day to be a good reliever.
Yeah, he has to say that though. His leverage is already low enough. Can't show panic publicly.And as Bres pushes the internal options, Whitlock gives up 2 quick runs.
Good arm strength, though. [\half full]Atypical bad throw by Story to allow Siri to reach first.
Sox dugout is on the 3rd base side at JetBlue. Easier access to the clubhouse.How come the Rays are in the first-base dugout? Is that usual for spring training?
They have Rich Hill as a guest commentator. I haven’t heard him previously. He is excellent content wise (maybe a bit monotone) but otherwise he has been great with some great insights on the “art” of pitching.The radio broadcast is so far behind the mlb gameday that I turned it off. Nice to hear Rich Hill, but they didn't even mention that Masa was batting. He made the third out, which is disappointing with Hamilton on second, but there is more "drama" in my mind from reading gameday than from listening to 'EEI.
So much for being the 5th starter.Criswell goes pumpkin in the 3rd. Couple of hits and a HR. 3-1 Twins.
Still did better than Yamamoto!Criswell goes pumpkin in the 3rd. Couple of hits and a HR. 3-1 Twins.
OMG dude, it's spring training, let it be fun.Stop talking to Harris and start calling the game
