He instantly drew attention for his impressive minor league play, batting .386 for the Lowell Spinners in 2016. From there, he’d continue to show an impressive ability to hit for power in the minor leagues. Dalbec was wide...2027Sun, 08 Sep 2024 16:04:00 +0000https://talksox.com/news-rumors/boston-red-sox/is-red-sox-pitching-coach-andrew-bailey-the-right-man-for-the-job-r2024/The hiring of Andrew Bailey helped signal a change of guard with Red Sox pitching. Dave Bush was okay at best, and when looking at the successful pitchers that he could get nothing out of (I’m looking at you, Ryan Brasier) it was obvious that there was a disconnect somewhere in the pitcher's mee...2024Fri, 06 Sep 2024 14:19:42 +0000https://talksox.com/news-rumors/boston-red-sox/how-bad-is-too-bad-at-defense-r2063/As the 2024 season winds down, there's a common refrain on national broadcasts, visiting broadcasts, and even NESN's broadcasts: the Red Sox have not been a good defensive team this season. With Boston's playoff hopes still (barely) alive in the last week of the season, it makes you wonder: How...2063Fri, 06 Sep 2024 10:50:00 +0000https://talksox.com/news-rumors/boston-red-sox/is-jarren-duran-the-red-soxs-newest-superstar-r2019/Before the 2024 MLB season, Jarren Duran, the Red Sox's speedster centerfielder from California, showed glimpses of his potential but hadn’t quite put it all together. This year, though, everything has clicked.  Duran recently made history as the first player to record ten triples, 20 home...2019Fri, 30 Aug 2024 13:15:01 +0000https://talksox.com/news-rumors/boston-red-sox/what-will-the-red-sox-do-with-trevor-story-when-he-returns-r2018/There was some excitement when Trevor Story's deal was announced, even though the contract length looked maybe a year or two too long, and there were concerns about Story's numbers outside of Colorado. Writing about those feels like beating a dead horse, though. He’s here, and with how quickly n...2018Thu, 29 Aug 2024 14:13:03 +0000https://talksox.com/news-rumors/boston-red-sox/connor-wong-is-above-average-offensively-but-struggling-mightily-defensively-r2017/I like to watch the opponent's broadcasts of Red Sox games for a few reasons. First, if anyone besides Lou Merloni is in the booth, I find Dave O’Brien insufferable. Second, it is nice to get a fresh perspective on the hometown nine. Opposition booths are generally pretty complimentary to Boston...2017Tue, 27 Aug 2024 20:32:26 +0000https://talksox.com/news-rumors/boston-red-sox/what-do-the-red-sox-see-in-joely-rodriguez-r2015/When left-hander Joely Rodriguez broke camp with the Red Sox, it was a surprise to fans and beat writers alike. After a pedestrian in 2023 with the club, where he had a 6.55 ERA and a 4.71 FIP, he managed a mediocre to bad pre-season. The most surprising part was that breaking camp with Rodrigue...2015Mon, 26 Aug 2024 02:02:00 +0000
