when does Ball get his first start? I think he doesn't pitch for a few more weeks. I think they are looking to build his arm up, get into a pro routine and give him a couple of innings later in the season. |

Stankiewicz was assigned to Lowell, is he on a similar schedule?

Stankiewicz was assigned to Lowell, is he on a similar schedule? Considering there was a minor health issue during his physical, I don't think he will pitch anytime soon. I find it interesting that Ball and Speier are on a program to work up their arm strength, which is standard practice for the Sox, but KJ Trader got game action mere days after he signed. Obviously Ball and Speier are more herald players, but one would think they would all be on a similar program. |

Good to see Brian Johnson back on the bump. 2 IP, 2 walks.

Obviously Ball and Speier are more herald players, but one would think they would all be on a similar program. GCL squad was kind of low on bullpen arms. There's the five starters, the four guys who, based on my observations, appear to be on piggyback or piggyback-esque usage schedules, Ball and Speier not ready to debut yet, and Stephen Williams apparently injured or being held out of games (hasn't pitched since 6/28). That left Oscar Perez, Zach Good, and Elis Jimenez as the only true "relief pitchers" on the roster. Team apparently got Smorol and Trader onto the roster and into the games in part because they needed them. Good and Jimenez had both pitched on the 4th and 6th, and Perez had thrown on the 6th. Drehoff and Jalen Williams are also in Fort Myers but haven't been assigned to the roster officially yet, and they're on the same plan as well, one would assume. |

Looks like Charlie Haeger will get the bump to Pawtucket for tonight's start. Likely just a spot start with Portland on its ASB.
Would be funny, though, if he stayed up and Pawtucket had two knuckleballers in its rotation...

Tweets from Jason Parks (BP) on Deven Marrero and Mookie Betts from last night/this morning: Marerro has 2 errors in 60 games. A fielding pct. of .993 looks like a 1st baseman, not a shortstop. We may have to check with Annie Savoy  But, I do believe that's gotta be some sort of Carolina League record. |

Marerro is another Adam Everett. He'll be a major league player, probably an eighth hitter in national league but valuable in a pitcher friendly environment like San Diego or even L.A. Dodgers. He'll be a nice part of a trade package probably next year to help the sox get a power hitting prospect, which the sox currently are short on in the minors. Marerro is a solid first round pick by the sox.

Denney 2-3 with a walk. Now at .364 5 for 14 with 6 walks and 4 ks Interesting, box had him at 1-3 an hour ago, which made his average something like .273 Not sure if it was a mistake or change of heart by the official scorer In other news: Alixon Suarez 3-4, 2B, 2 RBI Raymel Flores 2-3, 2 2B, 2RBI |
