Kyle Kendrick (Hasn't pitched since 2015 with Colorado where he was 7-13 with a 6.32 ERA)

 

Orioles have yet to announce a starter, but many are speculating Gausman will start tonight again, after throwing just 20 pitches tonight before being ejected.

[a700hitter]

His ERA in Pawtucket was 6 ish and he gave up 7 Home Runs.

[Bellhorn04]

His ERA in Pawtucket was 6 ish and he gave up 7 Home Runs.

 

The bright side is that in his last start he threw 7 shutout innings, giving up one hit and two walks. The start before that was decent. In his first two starts he was pounded.

[Station 13]

This is a game we might have to "mash" (lol good luck) to win.

Maybe just upset he didn't make the team out of ST and was able to turn it around? He looked good in ST.

I didn't understand why Kendrick didn't make the team coming out of ST. If he can come anywhere near replicating that we'll be ok.

[mvp 78]

They didn't need him since Wright, ERod and Pom were ready to go right after Opening Day. If one of those guys had a setback, he would have been up.

Win. Dance. Repeat. x3

 

I'm gonna miss this one, but that's alright with me. I'm getting a taste of what it's like to be a pro ballplayer tonight.

Have fun. Take lots of pictures.

So it turns out Marco Hernandez dislocated his shoulder last night and popped it back into place by himself.

 

Looks like he will be on the DL soon.

 

Sox players are dropping like flies.

[Maxbialystock]

A lot of good insights above. Thanks.

Won't Farrell ask DD or someone to give Hernandez a small bonus for voluntarily taking himself out of the lineup? If his absence also leads to a nice little winning streak of, say, 6-8 games, they can increase the bonus. I mean, this guy was trying to become the first player in MLB history to have more errors than hits.

[Slasher9]

the Red Sox training staff should all be fired. im not even kidding.

WIN.

eff showalter.

Steve Selsky coming to a 3b near you!!! Catch the excitement!!!

[a700hitter]

Hard to think he could be worse. And he brings long ball potential.

[Spudboy]

I am waiting for Dojji to start a thread promoting the idea of bringing up Mererro and either putting him at third or moving XB there and putting the glovey Mererro at SS.

 

The odd thing is that even though Mererro is heading further into sub-Mendoza land, he would at least be a defensive upgrade.

I've got Josh Rutledge Fever, personally.

[Station 13]

Kyle Kendrick, May the 4th be with you.

Wouldn't be the worst idea. At least he can field. Right now we have a bunch of guys who can't hit OR field

Not bad.

I don't want Marerro's bat anywhere near this lineup. His glove isn't THAT good.

most overrated glove I ever heard since Iglesias. Marrero looks awful here.

We're about 1/2 step from PanicLand. Do you have a better option?

I'd take Rutledge or Selsky over Marrero. His glove just hasn't impressed me. If it was really that good, DD would have found a bench role for him before now. His bat is anemic.

Hernandez DL

 

Thornburg 60 DL eligible to come off June 2nd... Good luck with that.

[Spudboy]

My fear is that Holt will not return.

 

Pablow is a BIG question mark. If he does return what is it that we can expect from him?

 

Hernandez must have some damage. You can't dislocate bones without doing some damage. I could be wrong, but probably not.

 

Rutlege can hit. But boy does he need to sharpen his defensive skills.

 

I know next to nothing about Selsky. Which tells me that I should not expect too much from him.

 

And who is this lump-du-jour the Sox just signed?

 

So no, Mererro is not out of the picture.

 

Of course the Sox could make an unexpected and possibly expensive trade.

there must be some medication you can take for this

[S5Dewey]

I'm usually looking for someone who can play adequate defense and hit for power at the corner positions. An outstanding defensive player is a ++.

 

Right now we don't have anyone who can fill either of those criteria so given that I'll take a guy who can bring the leather until we can find a raker. A glove guy not be able to create runs, but at least he's not giving runs away.

i am 1000% on board with this.
