  1. I'm not worried about Richards. Houck and Sawamura are still big question marks.
  2. The Rays having a player named Betts feels like a personal attack.
  3. How about that Sawamura chap though?
  4. @IanMBrowne Xander Bogaerts, "I will be completely ready" for Opening Day. I'm ready right now."
  5. It's nice to get some Coco Crisp talk again.
  6. Breaking News: @SmittyOnMLB Xander Bogaerts will DH tomorrow vs. the Rays
  7. Shoulder is owie.
  8. @IanCundall Professional outing from Eduardo Rodriguez today. Final line: 4 IP, 4 H, 1 ER, 0 BB, 6 K. FB was 91-93 and CH and SL both were good after he settled in. That velocity is a bit down from 2019, but by the time the regular season comes around I suspect it will tick back up to normal
  9. @SoxNotes Marwin Gonzalez has homered from both sides of the plate today. No Red Sox player has done that in the regular season since Victor Martinez on 5/17/10 at Yankee Stadium.
  10. @RedSox Why homer from one side of the plate when you can homer from both? Dollar Store version of Bill Mueller.
  11. They were selling a bunch of game used jerseys at the Christmas at Fenway gimmick a few years ago. I was definitely tempted by a Coco Crisp.
  12. You'll look cooler wearing a Dwight Evans jersey than a Kiké one anyway.
  13. Always get a jersey for a player that has already retired.
  14. She revised to say she meant Renfroe in RF.
  15. It mentions that in the rest of the article.
  16. @SmittyOnMLB Red Sox lineup: K. Hernández CF, Gonzalez 2B, Martinez DH, Devers 3B, Arroyo SS, Chavis 1B, Plawecki C, Gettys RF, Wilson LF, Rodriguez P
  17. @alexspeier Cora says Kiké Hernández and Marwin González have taken it upon themselves to discuss/tutor Devers on defense.
  18. https://community.fangraphs.com/a-lineup-construction-experiment/ When the performance of batters is static, the order in which they bat is not that important. In particular, while there was a slight difference when trying to form a bad lineup, the two reasonable lineups yielded the same results in a large sample. Thus, when trying to optimize a lineup, the emphasis should be placed on gaining advantages with particular batter-versus-pitcher matchups — the goal of which would be to maximize the performance of each player rather than worry about who goes to the plate the most often.
  19. April used to have extra days off to cover for rain delays. Not a fan of front loading off days. The O's series should be game 1, game 2, game 3, off day. If there's rain, just use that 4th day as a make up. I realize that they put the off day on 4/2 as a make good to opening day fans if their game gets rained out.
  20. @jcmccaffrey Cora says he'll use Marwin Gonzalez in left if Franchy Cordero isn't ready for the start of the year. He says Alex Verdugo and Hunter Renfroe will mostly be used in center and left. Nobody voted for this option in the poll.
  21. @alexspeier Red Sox pitchers have regularly shown mid- to upper-90s velo in outings. ‘It’s a lot better than (2019), obviously,’ Says Cora, referencing the slow post-WS buildup in which Sox starters weren’t physically built up for the start of the season. Oof. Cora throwing shade at the 2019 manager.
  22. Slasher isn’t here anymore. Don’t try to invoke him.
  23. Starting rotation numbers mean jack in ST.
  24. Meaningful September games!
