  1. Hamilton is a bad SS tho. If his bat works at the MLB level, he'll still need a different position. Field: Inconsistent footwork and fringy range at shortstop. Can make the routine play, but there are concerns about how he would adjust to the speed of the major league game there. Has shown a tendency to rush plays and has trouble fielding the ball on the run. Looks more comfortable and profiles better at second base. Hands work and has shown solid range there. Footwork is sloppy second as well, but is within the more forgiving margin for error at that position than at shortstop. Speed and athleticism might be best suited for center field, where he has played on occasion in 2022 and 2023. Potential below-average defender at shortstop and average defender at second base. I think Romy should have been the call up.
  2. When you draft HS SS, it takes a long time for them to develop. Also, Yorke was NOT a SS. Even at the time he was drafted, people assumed he was a 2B.
  3. Early, a guy I'm probably too high on, looked great his first time out for GRE on Saturday. Player of the Day: Connelly Early needed just 55 pitches to get through four shutout frames in Greenville's loss to Greensboro. Boston's fifth-round pick in the 2023 draft out of the University of Virginia, Early is currently the 47th-ranked prospect in the system. The 6-foot-3 left-hander has a potential plus changeup while mixing in a curveball and cutter to accompany his low-90s fastball. I like his starter profile better than a lot of the other guys that Chaim drafted.
  4. Criswell has seemed to lock up the 6th spot in the rotation. 1.06 WHIP .599 OPS 9 K 3 BB 10.1 IP
  5. Contreras has 7 SB in 8 games. Previous high is 23.
  6. I’m no fan of the Ham.
  7. They called up DHam.
  8. My guess is Romy is called up.
  9. Sogardhas a 593 OPS right now and is more UTIL than SS.
  10. Farrell bad. Cora good.
  11. I hope not. He’s awful at SS. Probably needs to play all of April in AAA too.
  12. I think we may see Rafaela to SS. He’s a better defender than the other guys in AAA. O’Neilll to CF and Abreu to RF.
  13. This team has lived up to the expectation that if they even are a .500 team they’ll be fun to watch.
  14. Nothing yet. MRI scheduled. He was not wearing a sling last night post game.
  15. Yeah, dude really sucks. He made his money then just mailed it in.
