    The only issue with that is you need someone aside from Pivetta to be a workhorse. I guess that's Kluber. So Kluber and Pivetta give you innings, but everyone else is on a short leash every time out?

    Considering the question marks in the rotation, there's a chance that he could stick there year long. The only issue is that he needs to be pulled after the second time through the order.

    That he could get a 20% bb rate over his first 95 PA's says a lot to me. Also, I really like the low whiff rate on fastballs as it shows that he didn't need to adjust to the heat, which is something other young players struggle with.

    Without a pitchclock in the WBC, I think pitchers that go to the WBC may be at a disadvantage when they come back. Maybe some batters too?

    @BeyondtheMnstr Kenley Jansen told WEEI’s Rob Bradford that even if the Netherlands advance in the WBC, he will not be joining them.

    MLB 2022: OPS 766 wRC+ 120 BABIP 208 If his BABIP was even just 275, those numbers start really popping.

    Cora says James Paxton is moving well and could play catch tomorrow. All in all he's trending in the right direction. "Obviously we're not rushing but if he's able to get on the mound by the end of the week we're in a better spot than what we thought a couple days ago."

    @MacCerullo Whitlock threw approximately 20-25 pitches and mixed in his entire pitch mix. He confirms he has been cleared for fielding work and will throw another live BP on Saturday. Hope is he’ll get into a game soon after. If this keeps him on track, he'd be ready to go mid-April as expected. Probably just throwing ping pong balls or whatever.

    Paxton is back throwing already.

    From Justin Turner: @redturn2 Thanks to everyone for all the messages and prayers! I’m feeling very fortunate to come out of yesterday with no breaks & all my chiclets in tact. The @RedSox medical staff and @Lee_Health have been absolutely amazing & I’m going to be back out on the field as soon as possible!
  12. mvp 78
    Do you think Matt Manning aimed at Justin Turner's head yesterday?
  13. mvp 78
    It has been suggested as much.
  14. mvp 78
    Looks like it hit the end of the bat to me? Piazza needs to get off the ground and get to 1b.
  15. mvp 78
    Bat? Yes. Ball? No.
  16. mvp 78
    Add your idea to the suggestion box?
  17. mvp 78
    Who said a week off would make him less injury prone? Nobody. Holding him back won’t change it.

    The flea market on US1 was pro-babying Turner. I tried an AA meeting, but was already drunk from putting my dog down and all the attendees were nodding off.

    On the catwalk. Yes, on the catwalk. I boil all my peanuts on the catwalk. That’s a ground rule double.
  20. mvp 78
    I didn’t say a few extra days off would make him less brittle. That never happened.
  21. mvp 78
    I don’t listen to the radio. Sorry.
  22. mvp 78
    That didn’t happen
  23. mvp 78
    Wow, seems like you have a problem with my opinion. I go to lots of bowling alleys, bingo halls, miniature golf courses, reiki healers, playgrounds, arcades, anarcho syndicalistic communes, mongolian buffets, puppy mills, boiled peanut vendors, grocery stores and nature preserves and people there all agree that Justin Turner must not be babied! He’s had enough time off!!! Sox have paid him 22M and have nothing to show for it! May as well ride him hard and put him away wet!!!!!!!!!!
  24. mvp 78
    He should be in there tomorrow. Better not baby him!
  25. mvp 78
    As long as they aren’t calling Brad Peacock up, I’m happy.
