    @UmpireAuditor Congratulation to umpire CB Bucknor. He is the new leader for largest miss of the season! This pitch to Josh Bell missed low and away by 5.96 inches. https://twitter.com/UmpireAuditor/status/1291792071607500801 Who doesn't love quirkiness like this!!!

    I think he gets some time in the system towards the end of next year. Missing only 2 years isn't a big deal when considering the upside of his arm. Definitely worth the 4th round pick.
  3. mvp 78
    No errors the next 8 games. Almost as if the weird summer camp format this year didn't help him get ready for the season.
  4. mvp 78
    Is he retiring after this year? News to me.
  5. mvp 78
    Yeah, he could probably get you through the order once, but pull the plug after that. He's only pitched over 3 innings once in MLB and that was 3.1 innings back in 2017.

    Ryan Weber gave up four runs over six innings in a tune-up start against the Blue Jays on Tuesday. Weber pitched really well for the most part, though Rowdy Tellez connected for a two-run homer in his final frame. Boston’s No. 3 starter -- yes, really -- yielded six hits in all while walking one and striking out six. The 29-year-old offers good control and induces grounders, but he holds a shaky 5.04 ERA (over 11 starts and 31 relief appearances) in the majors. He’s not much of a fantasy option. I'd take that over his last two starts for sure.

    @mlbtraderumors Cardinals Game Postponed Due To Additional Covid-19 Positives
  8. mvp 78
    He hasn't really started a game since 2016. Not sure he could go longer than 3 innings.
  9. mvp 78
    His best start last year was against TOR. However, that September performance against TOR was a nightmare. Hard to say what it'll be like today.
  10. mvp 78
    Who else could he have named?

    @SPChrisHatfield For me, the release of Andreoli is the most interesting part of this. Leaves Cesar Puello and Jarren Duran (along with utilityman Yairo Munoz) as the only OFs in Pawtucket. I think this means they're happy with Duran's progress.

    https://www.nytimes.com/2020/05/19/sports/baseball/mlb-prospects-training-coronavirus.html Stranded M.L.B. Prospects Find a Backyard of Dreams Seth Blair, a longtime pitching prospect, set up a practice area in his Arizona backyard and opened it to other players who did not have access to baseball facilities during the game’s shutdown. As many as 15 of them show up in staggered groups on a given day.
  13. mvp 78
    Yeah, I can't see relievers going for top prospects any more.
  14. mvp 78
    @redsoxstats Blair is a hard throwing right hander. He was a 2010 first round pick who took a 5 year break from baseball. He set up a makeshift pitching academy in his back yard during quarantine and had a bunch of pitchers showing up. He's apparently smart and like a coach.
  15. mvp 78
    @KyleAGlaser Blair had not pitched since 2014 before making a comeback attempt with the Padres last year. He was up to the mid-90s at Lake Elsinore. Now gets another shot with the Red Sox.
  16. mvp 78
    @RedSox The #RedSox today added RHP Seth Blair to their Club Player Pool. To make room for Blair, the Red Sox released OF John Andreoli.
  17. mvp 78
    Time to opt out.
  18. mvp 78
    If Eovaldi stays, it's even more likely that he gets dealt next year if he stays healthy.
  19. mvp 78
    Agree and agree.
  20. mvp 78
    If Eovaldi keeps pitching this way here on out, I could see other GM's calling about him. They may not overwhelm Bloom with a trade, but you could get a decent prospect and salary relief.
  21. mvp 78
    Comparing the Tigers and the Red Sox prior to 2000, I'd probably have to go with rooting for the Tigers. Could say the same for Royals/Mets too. I'm not old enough to remember any playoffs prior to 84 (especially since the Sox weren't involved).
  22. mvp 78
    Hard to compare since they didn't start until 1993. Who would I have been a fan of prior to that?

  24. mvp 78
    Very painful to watch.
  25. mvp 78
    I think Eovaldi and Perez could draw interest for sure. JBJ/Pillar could fit the "trade for a 4th OFer" that a lot of competing teams trade for at the deadline. Similarly, Moreland has a solid glove. I don't think those guys bring back a substantial haul, but I think you could get a couple high ceiling/low floor type prospects.
