  1. Brilliant game from Duvall. He might end up hitting 4th in this lineup
  2. Ugly start……
  3. Houck continues to struggle in spring training….
  4. Sale’s pitching is very encouraging. The Sox may have a legitimate ace on the staff, at least to start the season!
  5. Spring training stats have proven meaningless over time, but the hitting in encouraging nonetheless.
  6. MLB Trade rumours article: Right hander Garrett Whitlock is still on the mend from September hip surgery, though Red Sox skipper Alex Cora indicated this morning there’s a possibility he won’t be ready for Opening Day (Twitter link via Ian Browne of MLB.com). Whitlock has been throwing off a mound but is not yet performing pitchers’ fielding practice, and Cora stated that if the right-hander isn’t ready for the start of the season, “he’s not going to lose too much time.” One of the best Rule 5 selections in recent memory, the 26-year-old Whitlock has pitched 151 2/3 innings for Boston over the past two seasons, logging a sharp 2.73 ERA with a strong 26.8% strikeout rate against a brilliant 5.3% walk rate. The Red Sox have used him far more out of the bullpen than the rotation, but he’s slated to get a look as a starter in 2023, joining the likes of Chris Sale, Corey Kluber, James Paxton and Nick Pivetta in the mix for rotation work. Fellow righty Tanner Houck and top prospect Brayan Bello are both options to step into the rotation, should Whitlock need to miss any time early in the season.
  7. Trevor Story had a brace procedure on his elbow yesterday
  8. Merry Christmas from down under(it’s already Boxing Day here!) The Sox were 20th in HRs in 22, and Bloom said they would improve on that for 2023. I’m still waiting for him to achieve that …..
  9. That made me lol
  10. Jeter Downs designated for assignment .
  11. Vaz has signed with the Twins
  12. I don’t blame Sox management for not matching such a stupid contract ! 11 years WTF. The back end of that contract will likely be awful. I do blame them for missing the opportunity last off season, which they blew with a comical offer of an additional 30 million on his existing contract.
  13. Nice move Bloom
  14. My frustration with Bloom is that he always seems to want to “win” the deal, as opposed to making sure he gets his man. This leads to a lot of swing and miss in his style. By comparison DD often over paid but got his man .
  15. The Sox need some big bats and Abreu would have been 1 of them
  16. Abreu and Kahnle would have pleased me
  17. Bloom continues to go cheap and swing and miss so far this off season …..
  18. If the Sox keep Kike and follow through on their desire to get more HRs from the outfield, I can definitely see them trading Verdugo, and replaced him with an outfielder with more pop.
  19. Interesting to see that the Fenway group have announced they are selling Liverpool …..
  20. Blooms roster construction also sucked
  21. Where was JD 2 months ago when the season was in the balance ?! Infuriating to see him now remember how to hit when it’s garbage time.
  22. Wow that was quick! Casas now has the same OPS as Xander for the season
  23. Zander feeling the heat of the batting title chase. He’s hitting .208 in his last 7 games
  24. FFS the Sox were winning 8-3 when I checked the score 15 minutes ago!!!
