I'm thinking this is another player-coach situation like Thurston and Henry. He was immediately placed on the DL, per the BA transactions. His Twitter lists "Lowell, MA" as his location and his most recent tweet is below:

"We really don't need the whole commercial break/warm-up routine every time a new reliever comes into the game. It certainly made sense in 1884 when they only switched pitchers when the starter was attacked by pickaxe or caught consumption, and no reliever was warming up because he was busy gambling and drinking." - JD

I still think I'm going to wake up and say "I shouldn't listen to the podcast before bed, I dreamed the Sox signed a guy from Curaçao named Charlie Zink." - KOC

Which means tomorrow's slate is stacked with top starters in Ball, Kopech and now esp, should be a fun day of games.

McGrath done after three scoreless. Pitch Steen Pitch in.

My guess is McGrath gets one more rehab on Friday before being activated if all goes well.

Kevin Steen with another very impressive outing in the GCL: 3 IP, 1 H, 4 K, 0 BB.

Obviously too early, but I wonder if he can be another late round steal from a Tennessee High School who excelled in two sports. Would love to get some recent scouting reports on him.

1-2-3 fourth as well. He's showing he belongs in Lowell. There are 3 or 4 guys on that GCL staff who could move up this month or in early August.

For all those benintendi fans out there clamoring for a first look in the red dox minor league system, here's a YouTube clip of his single and steal sat for Lowell...

Very promising start for somebody that is a project.

And the other DSL Sox teams wins as well. The odd thing is that the MiLB box score has Rougned Odor leading off and DH-ing for the Rangers2 DSL team. I can't imagine there is another Rougned Odor, is there? He's not on the DL right now, and who plays rehab games in the DSL? Must be a mistake right?
