    Going through his game log: 4/11/21 10 straight changeups (Mountcastle out, then a 9 pitch walk to DJ Stewart). 6/6/21 12 straight changeups (hits Clint Frazier with a sinker and then 6 changeups to Andujar for GDP and 4 changeups to Tyler Wade for a 1b and LeMahieu grounds out after 2 changeups) I didn't see any others where he threw 10+ changeups in a row. I mean, I believe it could happen for sure.

    It should just be a reminder that solely using bWAR or fWAR isn't a way to judge players. You can't just rely on one stat, especially one that is so complicated that it is close to being convoluted. Remember that one of the things the owners were proposing was compensation based on WAR. Pretty scary that a guy can lose 10% of his WAR just because they wanted to adjust their calculation, which only goes back to 2016. There is no way to adjust any year prior to that.

    They don't want to play for Will Venable!

    @NBCSEdgeBB Red Sox manager Alex Cora diagnosed with COVID Cora trying to get out of going to Toronto too.

    Cavan Biggio is garbage.
  6. mvp 78
    He's only pitched once in AAA on rehab. May have another week or so. Unsure about any setbacks that have happened.

    Vaz with a throw just a little bit outside.

    When the ballgame is on, but you're stuck on a Teams call with your idiot boss...

    Anderson wasn't the top prospect at the time. He was highly ranked going into 2009 and then fell flat on his face in AA (673 OPS). Prior to the trade, the SoxProspects had the rankings as: Casey Kelly (included in the deal) Ryan Kalish Anthony Rizzo Lars Anderson Jose Iglesias Felix Dobront Anthony Ranaudo Josh Reddick Sox also included #16 prospect Reymond Fuentes in the trade.

    @ChrisCotillo Red Sox shuffling rotation a bit. After Houck today and Wacha tomorrow, it’s likely Whitlock on Saturday (unless he pitches in relief before then). Hill will pitch Sunday with Houck piggybacking him before being ineligible for TOR series. Tue (Houck’s day) TBA.

    @jcmccaffrey -Cora says it’s a day off for Kiké Hernandez but also trying to get offense going -Martinez still sore and getting treatment will travel to Tampa, likely won’t play Friday -Hill will start Sunday and Houck piggyback. Houck is unvaccinated and can’t go with the team to Toronto

    His career fell off a cliff as he aged. Should have never traded for him in the first place. Would rather still have Rizzo.
  13. mvp 78
    He was a starter in the Texas system before being called up. He hasn't been used as a starter since (excludes "opener" appearances).

    https://twitter.com/SoxProspects/status/1517159997863600128 @SoxProspects Ceddanne Rafaela went 1-for-4 with a home run (6) and two RBI (13) in yesterday's 9-4 Greenville Drive loss. The 21-year-old utility man is slashing .380/.415/.840 over 53 PA to start the 2022 season.
  15. mvp 78
    No, because reports are that his velocity is still down. If he can't regain his changeup from 2019-20, he's not the same pitcher. He may succeed in AAA throwing that way, but it's not an indicator of success in MLB.

    What's the toll of another 8 outs going to do?

    AGon in 2012: "We play too many night games on getaway days and get into places at 4 in the morning. This has been my toughest season physically because of that. We play a lot of night games on Sunday for television and those things take a lot out of you."
  18. mvp 78
    Yes to Whitlock, but no to Valdez. Valdez really has only 2 pitches. Without that third pitch, he's really stuck in the pen.

    "FanGraphs changed the fielding WAR calculation retro to 2016."
  20. mvp 78
    Overall.

    https://blogs.fangraphs.com/a-fangraphs-war-fielding-update/ FanGraphs just changed their fielding WAR calculation retro to 2016. Xander woke up today and somehow lost 3.2 fWAR.
  22. mvp 78
    rlrlrlrlr just as Cora likes it.
  23. mvp 78
    Career high k rate and career low bb rate. He's dealing right now.

    Houck vs Gausman 1. Trevor Story ® 2B 2. Rafael Devers (L) DH 3. X. Bogaerts ® SS 4. Alex Verdugo (L) LF 5. Bobby Dalbec ® 3B 6. J. Bradley (L) CF 7. C. Vazquez ® C 8. Travis Shaw (L) 1B 9. C. Arroyo ® RF
