  1. No MiLB games on Monday so today or tomorrow would be the day.
  2. He's very athletic and should be great in RF in Fenway.
  3. 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
  4. 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.
  5. 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?
  6. 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.
  7. Anthony is not really a CFer. He can fake it, but will end up in RF.
  8. Roman Anthony doesn't have any split concerns.
  9. 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.
  10. Here's what Mike Andrews posted on his forum: Debuts Braden Montgomery at 4 Payton Tolle at 14 Conrad Cason at 23 Brandon Neely at 30 Zach Ehrhard at 37 Brandon Clarke at 44 Brady Tygard at 45 Will Turner at 46 Mickey Gasper at 57 Notable Risers Franklin Arias from 14 to 8 Allan Castro from 17 to 12 Mikey Romero from 26 to 18 Juan Valera from 42 to 27 Jedixson Paez from 38 to 38 Blahe Wehunt from 39 to 33 Dalvinson Reyes from 43 to 34 Noah Dean from 46 to 36 Justin Gonzales from 55 to 41 Justin Riemer from unranked to 48 Notable Fallers Richard Fitts from 8 to 15 Blaze Jordan from 19 to 26 Bailey Horn from 32 to 38 Nathan Hickey from 33 to 40 Bryan Mata from 35 to 47 Nelly Taylor from 44 to 53 Shane Drohan from 47 to 56
  11. Sogard SS >>> Rafaela SS
  12. 1. Jarren Duran LF 2, Rob Refsnyder RF 3. Romy Gonzalez 2B 4. Rafael Devers 3B 5. Connor Wong 1B 6. Masataka Yoshida DH 7. Danny Jansen C 8. Nick Sogard SS 9. Ceddanne Rafaela CF
  13. I think you posted this in the wrong thread.
  14. Houck vs for a second day in a row Mr TBD Turf Sox are 10-0
  15. His defense has taken a step backwards and his bat is god awful.
  16. Duran CF, Yoshida DH, O’Neill LF, Devers 3B, Wong C, Abreu RF, Smith 1B, Sogard 2B, (MLB debut) Rafaela SS
  17. Wingenter was claimed by the dumpster diving Cubs.
  18. 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.
  19. Reese McGuire and Yohan Ramirez outrighted to AAA after clearing waivers.
  20. He's probably ready, but I am not mad that they'll give him a little extra time to develop further.
  21. 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.
  22. Anthony hit some absolute tanks yesterday. He has unbelievable power potential.
  23. He's not typically this effective against LHP. We'll see if the Turf Sox can reverse it.
  24. @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.
  25. Jansen is a free agent this offseason, FYI. Wong/Teel is a fine combination for next year.
