    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.
  3. mvp 78
    He's not typically this effective against LHP. We'll see if the Turf Sox can reverse it.

    @remartin_34 In games played at the position of catcher this season (min. 60 G) Connor Wong AL Ranks: .315 AVG - 1st .379 OBP- 1st .470 SLG- 3rd .849 OPS - 1st 135 wRC+ - 1st .370 wOBA - 1st Too bad Wong's glove is really bad. He'll be fine as a backup.

    Jansen is a free agent this offseason, FYI. Wong/Teel is a fine combination for next year.
  6. mvp 78
    The green responses are sarcasm, FYI. I think the majority of what you are reading are in jest. Trade Mayer though.

    @ByAndrewParker Connelly Early led all of Double-A in swings and misses yesterday with 16 in his second start at the level for Portland. Early’s numbers from his two starts: 2.79 ERA, 9.2 IP, 6 H, 3 ER, 3 BB, 11 K. There is worry that his stuff isn't going to play up as he advances, but all these swing and misses are a good sign.

    I'm being told that the Sox are currently 9-0 on turf this season. The Rangers stadium features a certified organic vegan herbicide and pesticide free microgreen Shaw B1K Natural Sports Turf with Legion Pro synthetic grass, sand and geofill over a performance pad. Sweep?
  9. mvp 78
    Makes sense as teams are restricted on how many players they can now carry and they just drafted 20 players. Need to get rid of some guys.
  10. mvp 78
    Probably really excited their gyats will see the rizzler again no cap skibidi ohio. Is someone finna fanum tax their fire lunch? Negative 1000 aura.

    Kutter Crawford vs the always dangerous Mr TBD

    I was watching old Harry Caray clips last night and one of the signs held up in the crowd was "Thank you for your Servais" when Servais was on the Cubs.

    Duran doesn't have the arm for RF IMO. Abreu is fine as a 4th/5th OFer once Anthony is ready to take over. Campbell is behind the big 3. I don't think we'll see him in 2025 unless it's late. He's also more likely to be a super UTIL guy than a one position guy. If Rafaela is the fulltime SS, they have a big time hole at SS as their SS sucks. A lot of Rafaela's value is in his CF glove. Pushing him to SS any longer doesn't make sense IMO.
  14. mvp 78
    The record was almost the same as last year?
  15. mvp 78
    It seems to be following the track of what I thought they'd do: a record similar to PY, but the team would be more interesting/engaging. I'm happier with this season than I was with '22 or '23 even if they miss out on the playoffs.

    Impending doom? My kids go back to school next week!
  17. mvp 78
    I wonder if they need to think about moving Penrod to the pen. He needs to be put on the 40 man this offseason or he automatically becomes a MiLB free agent.
  18. mvp 78
    Most likely will keep Priester down 24 and work with him in the lab. After he gets the extra year of control, they'll probably bring him up at some point to either spot start or be a multi inning reliever. Sox will need all the healthy arms they can get down the stretch. It's no safe bet that Martin, Slaten and Hendriks will be ready.

    Video of last night's back to back to back jacks from Romero, Bleis and Jhostynxon. https://x.com/RedSoxPlayerDev/status/1819085693932441934

    notin is gonna come after you now.
  21. mvp 78
    Romero still has a long way to go and needs to start staying healthy. Arias has been impressive this year. I didn't think he was supposed to project with the power that he's shown recently. May 728 OPS June 1103 OPS July 1206 OPS (402 avg)
  22. mvp 78
    They see guys like Portes and Valera everyday. Need to trust that they are keeping the right ones and letting expendable ones go.
  23. mvp 78
    Add another 4 for Valera. @RedSoxPlayerDev 17 straight innings with 0 ER for Juan Valera!

    "Listen, he's always going to be a Cubs legend," Cubs president of baseball operations Jed Hoyer said of Schwarber. "There's no question about that, as he should be." Those moments are etched into Cubs lore, but Schwarber projected to earn around $9-10 million via arbitration this offseason, so the non-tender helps create some flexibility, while also creating an opening in the outfield as the Cubs plot their offensive plans. He struggled in 2020, but so did a lot of players. That season ended up being an outlier. The Cubs corner OFers in '21 OPS'd 718 and 627.

    I don't believe Cespedes will be a 2B by the time he's in the upper minors.
