BALTIMORE -- The Red Sox have been coming together as a team and a starting rotation in recent days. But now they have another injury to deal with. On Monday, the club placed lefty David Price on the 10-day injured list, retroactive to Friday, with left elbow tendinitis. However, Price

Ya not looking good. Price has been very consistent this year. Super unfortunate.

[fxkatt]

This was my chief concern about this team... only 5 real starters and 4 of them somewhat or very injury-prone. And Porcello, the horse, is due for an injury too.

 

Two are already down. Who backs them up when there's no more money in the bank?? The Yanks are in a much better position to deal with this both in terms of the cap, and in terms of Minor League backups.

The Yanks have had the SP depth with guys who actually have big time major league stuff, yet were green. What I didn't know was that we actually had major league depth on the position player side as well. The sox had two big league options in Velazquez and Johnson, yet both of those guys have a ceiling of a long man/maybe 5th starter. Beyond them, the guys with big league stuff aren't ready for prime time yet in Hernandez, Houck, Scherff, etc. This is gonna be interesting. You came into the season with 5 major league starters and your 2 emergency guys. One emergency guy and 2 of those starters are down. Velazquez is in the rotation, yet is mostly acting as an opener giving you a max of 3 innings and essentially draining your pen. This is going to be interesting to see how you weather this if this becomes a long term deal. Eovaldi is looking at a mid June return at the earliest. Brian Johnson is going to throw a simulated game, but he will need some time to build up his stamina if he is to enter the rotation.

[jacksonianmarch]

The sox will also need to re-arrange their rotation. You've got 3 vs the O's, then a day off followed by a 3 game set vs the M's, a day off, a 2 game set vs Colorado, a day off then 17 games in a row. Theoretically, you would like to stack your 3 guys to face the Yankees during the 4 game set in the Bronx to end the month, but it would probably be better to spread the guys out and put Velazquez and right now Josh Smith in between them so the pen doesn't get bombed every game

[kenmeister]

They need to let Velazquez build up his stamina and go 5/6 innings a game. I'm not sure why this hasn't happened already.

This is the type of blow that can hurt the momentum that the team has been building.

Very true, especially with Eovaldi also on the shelf. Just have to hope it's not a long stint for Price.

[Swiharts Ghost]

It's been a total sludge walk this year just when we start running this type of s*** pops up .I am so tired of losing to s*** teams .

With the issues to the rotation. At some point will DD go out and look to find an arm. If so, who could be the options available?

he will go get verlander.

holt + nunie should get it done.

May have to throw in Pearce and Brewer to complete that deal.

Only if Houston includes Cole...

The obvious choice would be our old friend P. Sandoval. He proved us all wrong yesterday! A clean inning pitched - a three run dinger - and a stolen base for the big one. The possibility of getting him back might be too hard for us to resist. He has got some unfinished business here.

The phuking phat Panda, a totally worthless individual whose unearned contract could be costing us a contributing player who could actually help the Red Sox win.

What's worse is that he has a .783 OPS with SFG this year.

The Sox have a payroll of about $240mill. Even ignoring the wasteful Panda contract, a good GM should be able to build a winning team with $220mill...

Yes, that is still more than anyone else.

The Red Sox have $220mill or so divided up among 40 players and 20 of them make less than $1mill. It’s not the expenditure of Sandoval that’s putting financial restraint on this team. It’s that we have 20 players combining for over $200mill...

Controversial opinion, but I say we sign Keuchel, as long as we don't pay too much

I can think of 2 people who might take the other side of that controversy - Keuchel and his agent...

[jacksonianmarch]

The dark horse in the Keuchel sweeps are the Yanks. If Severino isn’t able to ramp up and ends up needing surgery, I could see the yanks offering a 1 yr deal that would in effect be half the amount due to service and then having a player option attached with subsequent seasons to follow. This would allow him to get a longer term deal if he wants it, but as it’s a series of player options thereafter, the lux tax hit this year would be minimal

The Yankees need him . Their starting pitching is shaky . The reason they haven't signed Keuchel is the same reason the other teams haven't , too cheap to spend the money.

ReaKeuchel's interview where he basically says , "They owe me, look at my numbers". Dallas wants to get paid for yesterday. He has 15 and 12 wins over the past two years for a big winning team. Even Porcello won a CY.

The system used to pay for "yesterday," and it must be a bummer to be a player like him at this very moment in the evolution of big contract negotiations.

[dgalehouse]

Keuchel is 31 . Not a kid , but hardly washed up . His ERAs the last two years were , 2.90 and 3 .74 . Not saying he is an ace , but he is a heckuva lot better than many of the rag arms teams are running out there . Billionaires too cheap to spend to improve their team . No wonder fans are getting disgusted.

[Thunder]

My older brother once lived in the same building as Keuchel, and the two were slightly more than acquaintances
