How about Sox prospect Anger Romero? https://www.baseballamerica.com/players/369969/anger-romero/
-
5 hits sucks, 4 walks is okay and 5 runs is fine. Sure, we got lucky a couple times, but we've had our share of bad luck. We got the win. I just don't get the need to pick apart every bad moment or thing about every game. Thank God, Barnes saved the 9th, or there would be 30 pages of what a huge mistake it was to bring him in, and how Cora is an idiot. -
It's all good, man!
-
He's an upgrade on D over Renfroe- major or minor. Can we agree on that?
-
Total Trade BTV net? +10.4 MLB talent (Hosmer/Pham/McGuire) -4.3 MLB talent (Vaz & Diekman) +14.7 Net gain Prospects: +2.8 (pending PTBNL) +6.3 (Abreu, Valdez, Rosier & Ferguson) -3.5 Groome + PTBNL TOTAL +17.5

If he had just traded him for air, I'd have been happy. We saved $4M, next year. Getting McGuire, a decent back-up catcher with possibilities for being better just adds icing to the cake. The overall view of Bloom's deadline deals seems to be coming more into focus and favor among fans and posters. We also added 4 prospects and lost Groome: 16. E Valdez: may compete for the 2B and DH openings, next year. 26. Wilyer Abreu: adding some OF depth we sorely needed 56. Corey Rosier: more OF depth with some upside on O 57. Max Ferguson: low level middle IF'er Now that Hosmer is paid for, he has a +6.5 value on BTV. McGuire is at +2.4 Pham is listed at -1.5 Prospects added: 2.1 W Abreu 1.8 Rosier 1.2 E Valdez 1.2 Ferguson Draftees: 8.7 Romero 6.5 Coffey 2.1 Anthony Traded away: +3.5 Groome (prospect) 0.0 Vazquez -4.3 Diekman ??? PTBNL for Pham

Pivetta needed tonight. He had a 7.97 ERA in his previous 7 starts, although it was 4.57, the previous 4 games, before tonight. Wacha is at 2.70 in his last 4 starts. Crawford is at 3.21 since May 6th. (56 IP) Nate is at 2.95 his last 3 starts (18.1 IP) Wink is at 3.45 in his last 3 games and 4.27 since his first game in the bigs.
-
Why not?
-
How about the O's being just a half game behind the Jays? (1.5 behind the Rays!) The Rays are 8 down on the yanks in the L column. Lots of baseball left!
-
No, and he's been struggling, lately, but Wink has kind of been getting by on smoke and mirrors.
-
No Bogey, Story or Vaz.
-
It's easy to pick out the worst of every game. It wasn't a good night for Davis, but the team picked him up, except for that 2B. I get the feeling had Barnes blown the game, you wouldn't have called it a "good move," right?
-
C: McGuire, Plawecki (Wong, RHern, Cottam, Hickey) 1B: Hosmer, Dalbec (Casas) 2B: Story, Arroyo (EValdez, Paulino) 3B: Devers (Jordan, Fitzy, Binelas) SS: Bogey, Downs (Mayer) LF: Pham, Duran (Abreu) CF: Kike (Rafaela, Bleis) RF: Verdugo, Refsnyder (Almonte) DH: JD, Cordero (Kavadas) SP1: Sale/Paxton SP2: Eovaldi (Bello) SP3: Wacha (Crawford) SP4: Pivetta (Winckowski) SP5: Hill (Murphy/Mata/Seabold/Song) Closer: Houck (German) RP2: Whitlock (Ward) RP3: Schreiber (Wallace) RP4: Strahm/Taylor RP5: Barnes (Thompson) RP5: Brasier/Danish (Santos) RP6: Sawamura (Feltman) RP7: Davis/Familia/Ort/DHern (Uberstine)
-
Pham the Man!
-
All around good effort.
-
They have a nice park. That's about it.
-
That's understandable, but it was not really Bloom's choice to cut the budget by so much, he was forced to trade big salary.
-
Wong went 3 for 4. Strahm went an inning- no hits or BBs- 1 K. Ward went 4.1 w POR. (6H 2ER 1BB 6K)
-
He's currently 4 for 4.
-
With Kike and Refsnyder now on the 26, Wacha and others back, Hosmer, Pham and McGuire added, we look like a different team than a couple weeks ago. Others still out hurt: Story: will apparently travel with Sox to Pittsburgh. Houck: receiving treatment for back Strahm: begins rehab, this week. Danish: begins rehab Wednesday Bello: will have a rehab start on Sunday Paxton: should begin rehab assignment, soon. Taylor: rehab shut down Sale: toast If Story, Houck and Strahm join the 26 man roster, soon, I'm assuming Duran or Dalbec get sent down for Story and Wink and Familia (DFA?) for Houck & Strahm. This would leave this line-up: 1. Pham LF 2. Devers 3B 3. JD DH 4. Bogey SS 5. Story 2B 6. Verdugo RF 7. Kike CF 8. Hosmer 1B 9. Plawecki/McGuire C Bench: Arroyo, Refsnyder, McGuire/Plawecki, Dalbec or Duran SP1 Wacha SP2 Nate SP3 Pivetta SP4 Crawford SP5 Hill Closer: Houck RP2: Whitlock RP3: Schreiber RP4: Brasier RP5: Strahm RP6: Sawamura RP7: Davis RP8: Barnes/Winckowski/Familia
-
Yolmer Sanchez DFA'd. (He can reject a transfer to the minors.) Kike and Refsnyder were activated.
-
Actually, it was 7 out of 8, counting Pedey who played 2B in 2017. He's gone, too.
-
You named 6 and said "They are gone." That implies all of them. DD traded away about 20 prospects that were once ranked in the top 20 on soxprospects.com. I'm not complaining. I loved winning the division 3 years in a row and watching the great 2018 season, but those trades that helped us win, are part of the reason Bloom was hired to rebuild the farm as a higher priority than winning in 2020, 2021 and to some extent 2022.

We've heard some good news about some hitters in the rookie leagues. Now, here are some pitching numbers. OPS Against FCL .393 Luis Perales (25 IP) #24 soxprospects.com .428 Henry Nunezn(27 IP) .510 Railin Perez (19 IP) .579 Jedisxon Paez (50 IP) #37 sp .613 Elmer Rodriguez-Cruz (28) #34sp .630 Luis Talavera (41) DSL .368 Simon Pacheco (29) .416 Alvaro Mejias (29) .500 Luis Cohen (41) .531 Eybersson Polanco (40) .537 Cristian Nunez (26) .556 Starlin Santos (30) .567 Stiwar Adames (34) .570 Royman Blanco (32) .601 Wandy Abreu (34)

How about Roman Anthony going 3 for 3? (He's 7 for 15, this year with 2 BBs 7 just 2 Ks.) BTW, 2 of Brannon's 3 hits were triples.
