Last year the first thing I did when I went to the boxscores was to check on Yorke’s night. Now the last thing I do before exiting is to check Yorke’s boxscore. Just a tough run night after night. Disappointing strike out numbers as well. I thought he was an elite bat to ball guy. I think he is still not 100 percent. His swing do a not look right.

Doesn’t it make more sense to call up cassas on may 1st next season?

Niko got a hit off McGarry's upper 90s fastball Low angle line drive approximately 175 mph ev And Kavadas got another walk today. Up to 87, I think, on the season.

Bonaci with a ton of walks this season. He appears to have an eye for the strike zone.

Rafeala’s defense is worth the price of admission! And, will lower our oitcher’s anxiety with him patrolling CF In 2023 or 2024?

If bello’s command and control improves, he could claim the 5th spit in the lineup next season.

Would we entertain bringing up Valdez up from Worcester? At most until story returns.

Atlanta signs Riley for 10 years! He might not be in the trade block!

Last outings for Bello, Crawford and Winkowski were encouraging!
Not sure where the ceilings are for those three, but hopefully they are adjusting to major league hitters.

Rob Refsnyder has been dealing with an MCL injury, further depleting the Red Sox. Unclear whether it will require an IL stint. Hoping to avoid it. So going off of the Story timeline… it’s torn but we won’t know for another week Makes you wonder where we got our medical staff and trainers from……………. Wal-mart?

Rafeala had 3 hits. Ops over .900.
He just keeps swinging and getting knocks.

One of the things about Bloom’s spaghetti throwing is that, yes, it yields a guy like Wacha. But then you also have Ottavino last year, Richards, Diekman… guys who are just soul crushing. I don’t know that the good outweighs the bad. Didn’t we sign diekman for two years?

Any chance he could get an end of July promotion? To Worcester! I was thinking Portland. But only if he continues to show advanced hitting for the next two plus weeks.

This presents an interesting scenario for LAA - do they go all in on Ohtani, whom they've made the face of their franchise? And if so, can they afford to have two players on a $206M (so-called "competitive balance tax")payroll afford two players who have a combined $75M AAV (or more)? Which may bring up the ugly conversation: "Is it time to trade Mike Trout?" Because if they went there, about 20 or so teams would be in the bidding immediately with SUVs full of top prospects. And what the Angels need more than anything are prospects, mostly pitching. I think they keep Ohtani no matter what. Ohtani has shown that money isn't as important to him as most players and will likely take a discount to stay with the Angels unless he is unhappy for some reason (losing?), so you keep Ohtani and worry about the rest after. If they need to trade Trout, they trade him. Wouldn't be the worst idea, but I imagine they would try to keep both for marketing purposes. I would love to see trout traded to the Mets. Being out in California, I have hardly gotten to see him play much in his spectacular career and if he is on the Mets, the whole world will see his talent regularly.
