  1. Yes, not a cheap shot. It was within the rules.
  2. Age ain’t nuthin but a number
  3. Also, on the recent SoxProspects podcast, they have stated that scouts think his glove will be good enough to stay at 2b. There had been question if he'd be moved to corner OF.
  4. From MLB Pipeline's writeup: 2B: Nick Yorke (BOS No. 4, MLB No. 98) A/A+: .325/.412/.516, 97 G, 14 HR, 62 RBI, 76 R, 52 BB, 13 SB One promising year isn’t vindication alone, but Boston’s decision to take Yorke, who many thought was a second- or third-round talent, in the first round last year sure looks a whole lot better now. Yorke’s .325 average was seventh-best in the Minors (minimum 400 plate appearances), and his 149 wRC+ was tied for 12th among that group of 356. To his further credit, the 19-year-old put up his best numbers over a 21-game stint at High-A Greenville, where he batted .333/.406/.571 following an August promotion.
  5. @SoxProspects Nick Yorke is the first team second baseman for the MLB Pipeline 2021 Prospect Team of the Year. The 19-year-old second baseman slashed .325/.412/.516 with 20 doubles and 14 home runs over 442 PA in time spent between Low-A and High-A.
  6. UPDATE @alexspeier Cora says Whitlock threw 60 times on flat ground. ‘A big step for him, obviously.’ Cora says he thinks Thursday is unlikely for activation (the first day he’s eligible).
  7. Heartless and classless organization.
  8. @alexspeier Cora on Barnes: ‘At one point, I guarantee you, he’ll be part of something important here’ Well then get to the point, man!
  9. You had 2 thirdbasemen! You flipped Schwarber and Dalbec, so you get nothing! You lose! Good day, sir!
  10. 1. Enrique Hernandez CF 2. Hunter Renfroe RF 3. Rafael Devers 3B 4. Xander Bogaerts SS 5. J.D. Martinez DH 6. Kyle Schwarber LF 7. Bobby Dalbec 1B 8. Jose Iglesias 2B 9. Christian Vazquez C
  11. Sure, but I think Vlad is bit above those two. He really had a transcendent season.
  12. That's every area. There's always people that play too seriously.
  13. @alexspeier Garrett Whitlock is throwing on the field at Camden Yards
  14. He's behind Arozarena, Mountcastle, Franco, Luis Garcia, Adolis Garcia and maybe even Akil Baddoo. Lots of rookie designations this year because of the shortened 2020.
  15. https://www.baseball-reference.com/leagues/majors/2021-rookies.shtml Baseball Ref still lists Arozarena as a rookie. If so, he'd get my vote.
  16. They'd be booed a lot less if they didn't have to call balls and strikes though.
  17. The front of the plate is the strike zone. That's fine. That's where the robo zone is.
  18. See the Jeff Passan tweet above.
  19. You'd be wrong though. https://twitter.com/JeffPassan/status/1442568298965708801
  20. Vlad should win. Vlad had a much superior offensive season. Ohtani was 17th in hitting fWAR and 40th in pitching fWAR. He was good, but not great. If he was top 10 in both pitching AND hitting, maybe he has a case.
  21. Disagree. I've seen plays like that in slow pitch softball.
  22. Sounds good to me.
  23. He didn't know it was a robot. So, basically Westworld Baseball.
  24. 80 WRC+ last series. No reason to keep running Iggy out there at Arroyo's expense.
