    Paxton threw 3 innings at Ft. Myers today, with up to 95mph gas. He says he expects to be ready for 2024 ST so will stay in Ft. Myers for the season to get ahead of his program

    I'm going with Pivetta to lead the way through a no score 1st inning for the Pirates . No errors, no walks, no HBP, 3 up-3 down.

    Maybe the Sox track record through multiple FO/MiLB administrations developing pitchers over the past 20 years makes them shy of drafting a pitcher in a top slot. . The failed development process of at least a strong #2 type is inexplicable. Maybe that is turning around with Bello, and marginally with Houck.

    Arroyo having some trouble with the bat on a team that is hitting well

    72 pitches in 3 innings, 5 runs, digs a 3 run hole before his team bats, blows a 2 run comeback lead , what else do you need from Kutter ?
  6. vegasbob
    Will Verdugo be running here?
  7. vegasbob
    Kutter gets out of the 2nd with fewer pitches than the 1st inning and cut his runs allowed by 67%

    Crawford's butt gets bailed out plus a couple. Can he now capitalize on that ? He needs a 12 pitch inning
  9. vegasbob
    Glad to see Casas use the Pesky pole corner to get us up in the 1st. Amazing turnaround.

    3-3 all real quick. Note that Ovieda throws in a bit of a similar style to Crawford, and gets similar results Both guys also work in the upper half of the zone, a real key to success
  11. vegasbob
    i trust Devers got paid for his bat, not glove and arm
  12. vegasbob
    Don't wish for what is not possible. Crawford's whole delivery is a message that he is not a serious prospect for a starting pitcher. The short arm style is better suited to a catcher

    It's early, but Perez got a win this weekend going 5 2/3s allowing only 1 run, BUT gave up 8 hits and 3 walks , almost 2 baserunners per inning. probably one timely hit would have sunk him.

    I wouldn't minimize the importance of that comeback to making this team interesting. Crap pitching early but runs scored late. Mind you a dropped pop fly to left with 2 outs made it possible but Duvall made them pay
  15. vegasbob
    Turns out it was Duvall
  16. vegasbob
    Going to have to do some hitting to get to Casas, or maybe a couple walks will work

    Here comes the walk-off win to get the season rolling. Who has got a bomb in their bat ?
  18. vegasbob
    So the Orioles have stolen 10 bases in 2 games. Sox haven't.
  19. vegasbob
    Once again the pitching is just not quite ready for prime time.
  20. vegasbob
    So, Thunder, you share the pain of several Red Sox current and former players
  21. vegasbob
    It is not misery nor giving up after a single game. The Sox will win at least 70, and maybe up to 90. It is watching poorly executed baseball in all 3 categories plus lack of a running game , that as mentioned above extends back to the last two weeks of ST and through yesterday. Cora's teams, IMO, are never quite mentally ready to consistently play at a smart level. Having said that you can point to 2021's start with the 3 games lost to the same O's for encouragement. Trouble is trash ball like we saw should'nt be the standard we bring to a season opener. The hometown edge was quickly wasted with plenty of booing.

    Nice f'ing loss to start your year Sox
  23. vegasbob
    The Sox trying to rally hard in the 9th just puts a bright light on the poor command by pitchers, the walking stolen bases and sloppy defense . This game was winnable, and may yet be so
  24. vegasbob
    You could edit your post to read " Kike... look like clown". Not my favorite Sox player

    What was the situation before they had the rule. if the batter was in the box but not focused on the pitcher, did the umpire call time. Yes, i agree it may be a safety issue but the rule is not needed.
