He appeared in nine games, throwing ten innings with a zero ERA, nine strikeouts, and a 0.80 WHIP. He came up for a cup of coffee with the big league team and showed he had enough potential to be an essential piece of th...2352Sun, 09 Mar 2025 10:56:02 +0000https://talksox.com/news-rumors/boston-red-sox/red-sox-make-first-round-of-spring-training-cuts-r2351/Spring training has been going on for nearly a month now, and the Red Sox have made their first cuts this week.

So far we’ve started to see this play out, except not with the names that we expected.

He has yet to surrender a run, and seven of the 10 batted balls he’s allowed have been groundballs. Obviously, it would be ridiculous to try to draw conclusions from the stats Fitts h...2343Wed, 05 Mar 2025 11:56:01 +0000https://talksox.com/news-rumors/boston-red-sox/where-should-rafael-devers-play-r2341/Spring Training games have begun and with it came the debate over where certain players should play for the Boston Red Sox.
