  1. Fair enough!!! You do not think Anthony benefited from his early season work in Worcester ???
  2. Excellent breakdown! what does it look like for position players???
  3. Really ??? Campbell looked overwhelmed in spring training, but we still started him in Boston!
  4. I feel pretty good that we got some quality prospects in the system despite a lot of graduations in the past few years! we got some exciting pitchers that will debut in 2026!!! the system has to keep graduating quality prospects year after year!!!
  5. With all the position player graduations, the remaining high end talent are the arms!!!! but the arms are fragile! Just ask about Valero
  6. I think toro is regressing into what Toro is, an AAAA player! but Campbell has huge upside. Yes, Campbell was rushed to the majors. Shame on bres-slow. Yes, Campbell had to reconstruct himself in Worcester! And to campbell’s credit, he is figuring it out!!! But the bottom line is Campbell has a huge ceiling when he figures it out. We need to bring him up when Campbell proves he is ready!! No more rushing
  7. I just saw a video of Campbell making 2 outstanding plays at 1st base!!! time for toro to report to wardrobe to change into his Star Trek original red security personnel shirt!!! I see Murphy also hit his expiration date today
  8. After he settled down, he was pretty impressive
  9. Tolle was too hyped and over throwing in the 1st two innings
  10. This team is so much more fun to watch though!!!!
  11. Song looks to have a tired arm! Just not finishing pitches anymore
  12. I think all 4 are really good. Gonzales is only 18 years old and when he is in the batters box, he looks comfortable and he takes really good swings at pitches he should attack!! I can’t say that about Garcia or arias. &nbsp arias has a lot of rafeala in him. Sometimes arias swings at pitches a a foot outside the strike zone. And ok, I admit, Gonzales gets fooled occasionally and swings at pitches a four outside the strike zone too! But where Gonzales will lay off the next pitch with that exact same spin a foot outside the strike zone. Arias will swing at it again and again !!! I watch Garcia at bat and I do not know if he recognizes spin on breaking balls. I wonder what happens when he faces a nasty major league slider or cutter or sweeper!! He looked completely overwhelmed in spring training. That being said however, throw him a fastball below the letters and look out!!! Campbell to me is the best pure hitter in the system, but he was rushed through the system and the major league pitches found his weak spot! I have no doubt that he will return smarter and better prepared next time. The problem is he had no defensive position, DH or outfield may work best for him, we have to keep him off the dirt.
  13. Song looks to have a tired arm! Just not finishing pitches anymore
  14. Garcia with his 16th tater tonight
  15. I agree, but their upside offensively is much lower than Mayer or Campbell
  16. I believe Campbell will be an elite bat in any lineup. But defensively, I honestly do not see a position for him, does he build up enough value over the remainder of the season to headline or co-headline a trade????
  17. Narveaz has earned it in my opinion!!! But my vote is Tolle or Witherspoon!
  18. May needs to put together some quality innings as free agency is fast approaching
  19. Maybe abreau finishes strong and becomes the odd man out/tradebait for the outfield logjam this offseason. &nbsp
  20. I think Justin Gonzales and Kristin Campbell are our only tier 1 position players left in the minor leagues! I think arias and Garcia are tier 2. after that, maybe godbout and Soto surprise us, but no one knows???
  21. The sad part is that we have so many outfielders in Boston, that we cannot give him the proper opportunity to show what he can do for us!!! Maybe if he becomes miraculously proficient at 1st base in the next 30 days. He can see some time there in Boston ????
  22. Castro with a nice outfield assist at 3rd for Portland. Junior password with a tater !!!!
  23. Hicks and I. Campbell, please report to wardrobe for your original star trek red security personnel shirts!!!!!
  24. Blies with his first Portland tater today
  25. This is a great great signing. I think bres-slow stepped it up big time
