    The third google hit: http://www.bostonherald.com/sports/red_sox/clubhouse_insider/2016/06/dombrowski_andrew_benintendi_impressing_but_too_soon_for "Asked if he was considered for a promotion straight to the majors, Dombrowski said, “Not really. We don’t think he’s ready at this point. We didn’t even talk about him in relation to this move. We just don’t think he’s ready and we wouldn’t want to bring him up here until he’s ready.”

I don’t know if it’s this year or next year" Touting Benintendi and saying that he will be promoted in August are two totally different things.

    Sure. I don't see them playing above .500 on the road though. As it stands, they are 26-25. With 51 games left, they would need to go 29-22, .569. The Cardinals, Cubs and Nationals are the only teams 7 games above or more on the road at the moment.

    .075 maybe? There was a time when literally every new poster that came aboard who disagreed with you was supposedly Dutchy. Honestly, he hasn't been around for a long time (2 years?) and you've called a few people out the past year or so.

    Half of those games have been against the murderer's row of the Twins, Yankees and Angels. For the year, they are behind Toronto and Baltimore, the teams they are chasing for the pennant. Baltimore's rotation isn't considered very good, so what does that say about our staff? It will be interesting to see how they hold up against the O's and the Jays when they meet head to head.

    Are you saying A700 is a sleuth? He's called out several posters for being Dutchy that were not in fact Dutchy. I'm just always a little amused with posters on here tilting at windmills.

    Don't get me wrong, he's an absolute joy to watch. If he's here, he should be playing everyday. I just don't think the #9 hitter is going to get you the pennant.

    A700 is to Dutchy as Slasher9 is to TBSB

    The spark this team needs is in the pitching department. All the offense in the world isn't going to save this season. Ortiz, Xander and Pedey all seem to be slowing down. It was to be expected as they couldn't possibly replicate the 1st half offensive numbers. They were due for a regression. It's the pitching staff's turn to try to win a few games.

    Yup, all these talent evaluators that hadn't watched a lick of him just knew he was ready. I was erring on the said of caution as were the professionals at Soxprospects who actually go out and watch the guys play. In all the podcasts I've listened to, none of the scouts were saying that he should be brought up any sooner than September. What do they know? Hey, the unwashed masses were right on this one. Kuddos.

    Cueto also SUCKED in the AL. There's no telling if he'd pitch this well in Boston.

    No thanks to Rich Hill.

    http://deadspin.com/red-sox-cancel-giveaway-due-to-unacceptable-david-ort-1785041323 I'm blaming SC30 for the design.
