    I believe Kutter had an extra day off this go around. Didn't help with the long ball.

    Bello has started to turn his season around. I think he's probably a solid #3, but had some outings really get away from him this year and he needs to just figure it out next season. Houck is a 3 that can have stretches where he pitches like an ace. That's basically Nathan Eovaldi IMO. There aren't many true aces hanging around these days that don't have serious injury concerns. Burnes, Fried, Buehler this offseason? It's not like the farm system has a ton of high octane arms marching through the org right now.

    @SoxProspects Our @SPChrisHatfield reports, per an org source, that 2024 draftees Zach Ehrhard and Will Turner, both outfielders, will be added to the Greenville roster tomorrow. This is unlikely to be part of a larger set of promotions. Also, Worcester RP Jorge Benitez has been released.

    No MiLB games on Monday so today or tomorrow would be the day.

    He's very athletic and should be great in RF in Fenway.

    I wasn't trying to suggest a trade in my post, just that Anthony's best use would be RF in this org. Duran - LF Rafaela - CF Anthony - RF Abreu - 4th OF

    And in 2022 he had a 775 OPS vs LHP. Even his 739 in 2023 isn't awful in the way some platoon guys show in the minors. Like I said, maybe he'll be able to figure it out, but the competition makes that adjustment that much harder at MLB, especially if you're riding the bench and not working through it.

    I believe Ian and Chris have said on recent SoxProspects pods that he should be transitioned of CF and that his future home is not there. He's looked fine from what I've seen, but the Sox have Duran and Rafaela that seem to play CF on a higher level so why move them off?

    3-2 and a LHB coming up for the 3rd time with a pitcher that gave up 2 bombs already? That's horsehockey! It was clearly Cora punishing his players!!!!!!!!!!!! Counter point: Pivetta was only at 70 pitches and leadoff hitter Josh Smith has a reverse split 893 OPS vs LHP this season. Regardless, it worked.
  10. mvp 78
    Anthony is not really a CFer. He can fake it, but will end up in RF.
  11. mvp 78
    Roman Anthony doesn't have any split concerns.
  12. mvp 78
    His splits weren't terrible until he hit the upper minors. Not sure if he'll be able to figure it out, but it would help this team out as they are very LHB heavy out there. Duran has hit LHP a little bit better this year, but Abreu has been rough.

    I think you posted this in the wrong thread.

    Houck vs for a second day in a row Mr TBD Turf Sox are 10-0
  18. mvp 78
    His defense has taken a step backwards and his bat is god awful.

    Wingenter was claimed by the dumpster diving Cubs.
  21. mvp 78
    Crawford's career high in starts and IP is 27 and 143.2 respectively. That was back in 2018 though. I think he's showing now that he's closer to a 4 than anything else. I'll take it.
  22. mvp 78
    Reese McGuire and Yohan Ramirez outrighted to AAA after clearing waivers.
  23. mvp 78
    He's probably ready, but I am not mad that they'll give him a little extra time to develop further.
  24. mvp 78
    He throws a 4 seam, a changeup and a slider. https://baseballsavant.mlb.com/gamefeed?date=2024-08-01&chartType=pitch&legendType=pitchName&playerType=pitcher&inning=&count=&pitchHand=&batSide=&descFilter=&ptFilter=&resultFilter=&hf=pitchVelocity&sportId=11&liveAb=#752141 The vertical break on his slider doesn't dip as much as Houck's or even Wyatt Old's in the same game. SoxProspects says that he throws two versions and that the sweeper has more depth than the slider. Statcast didn't differentiate between sweeper or slider in this outing. His velo was definitely all over the place in this outing.

    Anthony hit some absolute tanks yesterday. He has unbelievable power potential.
