Dobbins has exceeded all my expectations this season. Number 2 behind narveaz!!! very sad for the kid indeed!!

There are 3 sides to every story! And in the case of the Red Sox, those 3 sides are Henry, bres-slow and Cora!! 1.) Henry wants a program that wins and has a yearly sustainable winning foundation within economic constraints!!!! and I believe this is the instruction he passed along to bres-slow!! 2.) bres-slow understands the direction issued by Henry, but also understands that while the team must be built on pitching, defense and timely hitting; chemistry is super key to wins and you cannot win with locker room cancers!! This red Sox team has been described by journalists all year as not being cohesive and up until now, that has been accurate. The important thing is bres-slow is cutting out the cancer and building a real team again !!!! 3.) Cora wants to win now, even though he had a new three year deal, he got caught up in a chance to win now! Unfortunately, injuries and miscommunication by the front office left him on an island!! I believe he has since bought back into the organization’s vision, and has checked his ego at the door and is finally able to bring the locker room together as a cohesive unit!! there are more changes to be made, this roster is lacking two quality starters, but the Red Sox are starting to feel like a team again and not a collection of players!! we got a ton of first and second year players and that means ups and downs for the rest of the year, but I think bres-slow has a vision for executing Henry’s plan!!!! Is bres-slow perfect?? No, not by a long shot! Bringing up Campbell, especially after a a tough training camp and all the errors early in the season, must have upset the pitchers and the locker room, but bres-slow has fixed it and would have fixed it earlier if not for bregman’s injury! I feel better about the “compete” of this team than I did back in March and I still think, we can make the playoffs this year!!!

Dobbins to the DL with elbow strain!! Ouch!!!

Uberstine’s stuff is decent at best! But definitely better than stock or Kelly’s fitts biggest problem is two find: first, he does not have a go to pitch to put batters away!! And second, he does not induce many ground balls!!! Kansas City should trade for Fitts, he fits their ballpark perfectly!!!

Hicks and Murphy looked rough today. Garcia with his 7th tater for Worcester

Sandlin with a no hitter threw 5 innings

Bres-slow’s main contribution to pitching appears to be getting pitchers to stop throwing 4 seam fastballs and instead throw breaking balls

Fitts on his way to San Francisco! Buehler may be going to the DL again!!!

Bregman starting to ramp up baseball activities! It would be nice to have his bat back in the lineup!

Hang’em Chaim is a beast at bringing in talented position players!!! But absolutely terrible with pitchers!!! hang’em Chaim is why we have a huge hole at the number 2 and number 3 spots in our current rotation!!!

Maybe we keep story and move him to 2nd base when Bregman comes back,

Dude, we have to figure the bres-slow will figure a way to move story along!!!

Atlanta still needs a shortstop and we got one they might like when Bregman is healthy again. and we can throw in a beuhler for free

At least we did not trade for him !!!! Dude should pitch wrapped in bubble wrap

Chris fragile put on the DL for a fractured rib!!! I guess that talk of Atlanta trading him to the Red Sox caused the injury

The needs are obvious, a number 2 rotation pitcher, a number 3 rotation pitcher, and maybe another bullpen arm! the trade pieces and prospects we have are numerous and talented! The only three untouchables are Anthony, Mayer and crochet! I think bres-slow can add the missing pieces and keep building the chemistry this team is developing getting better with every player he adds!!

I cannot believe how many pitchers got hurt from our minor league teams this year thus far!!! makes the performance of an uberstine stand out even more.

What a game!! Wow!!!! Very nice win

I was really hoping for an improvement over what Kelly brings

Whitlock really made this interesting !!!! What a game

The loss of slaten really hurts our bullpen. we got to come up with a better solution than Kelly!!!! bres-slow has to work the phones

There has to be someone, anyone better than Kelly to bring in to a close game

Fir Worcester m: Jordan was 2 for 4 with 3 rbi tonight Garcia was 1 for 3 with a walk uberstine had a nice night on the mound. for Portland: Romero 2 for 4 with a tater. tibbs 2 for 5 castro 1 for 4 ehrhard zero for 3 with a walk. song was 3 innings and gave up only a tater For Greenville: arias was zero for 3 Rivera pitched a really good game tonight. Just 1 run on a tater given up For Salem: Gonzales 2 for 4 Mussett zero for 3 with a walk.

Red Sox have been mocked to draft Irish of suburb and move him full time to the outfield! We have a lot of outfield talent on the roster and in the upper minors!!!!!

I am predicting penrod will be in an all star game in the future.
