  1. Valera is 19! No one knows if he develops into a major leaguer! He has better stuff and control than winkleman, but that is not a guarantee!! When Valera is pitching well, he is amazing!!! witherspoon is a wait until 2026 decision. He should start in Greenville and be in Portland by June!!! I watched Witherspoon go toe to toe with Kade Anderson this past season and he kept the lsu hitters off balance for a while, but eventually the relentless lsu line up ate him up!!! But I was super impressed by the kid at his fight and determination in that game!!!
  2. The Red Sox should expect a call from houck’s agent once an hour until this is resolved
  3. I do not think that our farm system failed! I think first and third were neglected by hang’em Chaim’s intense focus on middle infielders! if yorke had developed, he would be the starting 2B, but unfortunately for us, yorke never developed into the player hang’em Chaim thought he was. This caused bres-slow to rush Campbell to Boston, after a putrid spring and in hindsight that was a poor decision!!! sadly, I think all 6 position players we took in the 2025 draft were middle infielders or outfielders!!!!
  4. I for one am not sold on Tolle yet!! The velocity on the fastball is insane and the low arm angle gives it a deception and wicked movement that hitters cannot seem to pick up!!! This is a great pitch to get hitters out!!! But after you get past the fastball, can he get consistent strikes with the secondary pitches??? the jury is still out for me!!
  5. Valera and Clarke and pre injury perales have amazing stuff!!! Witherspoon has a funky delivery. Should be interesting to see if the Sox tinker with it
  6. Texas is a game under .500 and technically still in the wild card race, but they have 2 pitchers I think we need, eovaldi and Martin!! would bres-slow be able to put together an offer that Texas would take??? crochet eovaldi giolita bello fitts beuhler houck
  7. The 2025 college pitchers on day 2, may be actually worse than the 2024 day 2 college pitchers we took!!!
  8. The talk radio guy seems to think the Sox are talking to Colorado and Atlanta!
  9. You know you are starting to build depth when these decisions are murky!!!
  10. The pitching in Salem and fort meyers is really bad!!! Bottom of the barrel type stuff!!!
  11. We definitely got some talented players coming in!! ButI would hate to kill a kid’s dream because of the reserve list!!! hard decisions ahead for bres-slow!!!
  12. The twins have a reliever named Jax (I think) he throws a decent ball! Maybe he is the 8th inning guy we lacked with slaten blowing a gasket again!!!
  13. I think everybody is happy with this trade if the twins think highly of Abel!!!
  14. A writer suggested we trade Duran to San Diego for salas and moonhorn! then we flip those two to the twins plus Fitts and arias for Ryan!!!
  15. I heard the beat writers in Texas were speculating on whether or not eovaldi would be made available?????
  16. Last year, we shut down the college pitchers after we signed them. I expect the same this year!!
  17. we are suppose to congratulate them and hope their success continues!!!!
  18. Portland relief pitcher troye released today!
  19. One of the Red Sox beat writers predicts bres-slow hanging on to all outfielders until the offseason!!!!
  20. 4 good weeks does not guarantee anybody a playoff spot!!!
  21. Very raw kid. Has not been on the all star circuit!!! low mileage arm that might have been there at number 75!!!!
  22. Definitely been a while since we had three good starters, but I believe bres-slow will continue to be aggressive and try to find us that number 2 starter this month!!!
  23. Excellent pick by bres-slow. But perplexing!! Witherspoon is a four seam fastball pitcher and we do not let pitchers throw many 4 seamers!!!!
