Alright, a position player sighting on the mound. Gotta love it.
-
Rafaela didn’t bust it out of the box there, but that actually turned out to be fortuitous; LF made an almost perfect play and a good accurate throw that probably nails him at 2nd if he had tried to go.
-
Wouldn’t shock me to see Bello actually get through 6 allowing only the 3 runs for another “quality” start.
-
Only half of them; the other half are Blue Jays fans who came down. That’s part of the Henry dilemma; the only thing that will affect his view is less people in the stands, but opponents fans keep filling up the stadium.
-
The announcers (both TV and radio) have said he’s throwing it 2 mph faster this year than he did last year, which means less drop. So it gets hit more and harder, so it gets called less,
-
Bereavement leave; he’ll be gone for the whole series.
-
Bello wasn’t going to get to first in time on that chopper. Not quite ERod level but …
-
Bello appears to have reverted to early season form tonight.
-
Bello gets 2 breaks on that AB. 3-1 pitch was a checked swing foul on a ball 6 inches inside. Still walks him.
-
Ump was pointing fair before it hit the ground?
-
No, he’s just a guy who relishes negativity. Has he posted his “I’m outa here” message.
-
Cora is still owed around $17M through 2027. Henry isn’t going to pay him to do nothing. The bottom line is more important than results to JH. IMO, Cora is probably not the right guy for this young roster; he’s better with a veteran group.
-
Weissert needs a week off. 39 appearances in 81 games is way too much for any reliever.
-
Good game by Crochet tonight. Not his sharpest but you can’t argue with the results. Now, how do you get it home? Who pitches the 8th? I’m guessing Weissert,
-
That’s 4 called strike 3s tonight, and only Anthony’s in the first was not down the middle (that one was actually ball 4).
-
Would have liked to have seen Rafaela slide into first there; it’s the only time you should.
-
Campero has a really good accurate arm. That’s two throws from somewhat awkward positions that have made plays a lot closer than they should have been (the SF being the other).
-
You’re in a mood tonight 😃😀
-
I think if Ref was playing the OF tonight, Abreu would have hit. Since he’s the DH, it’s a tougher call to replace him this early.
-
Plus not a lot of loud contact. Anthony had a solidly hit fly ball and somebody hit a liner to left that took the LF to the track.
-
Too early, and you might want him for D later (since Refsnyder is the DH).

Passan: Boston Red Sox Optioning Kristian Campbell
illinoisredsox replied to Matthew Lenz's topic in Boston Red Sox Talk
Just one person keeps bringing his amateur career up. We should be fair, TYPM is raising KC's high school resume (not Little League) and Georgia high school baseball is among the best in the country. That being said, other than getting you in the door, said resume has nothing to do with what an athlete does at the professional level. As mvp said, Campbell was sent to the minors; he's still on the 40 man roster -
Not sure I get the reference; in fact I know I don’t.
-
A little snake bit this inning. That first hit was very lucky for the Halos. Two poor throws by Wong and Abreu. A perfectly placed ground ball single. He’s not exactly getting lit up this inning.
-
Abreu has a great arm but he has no idea where he’s throwing it. An accurate one hopper there nails the runner at home.
