What makes this so difficult to understand? The neuroscience part.

Even though it is really early, Workman had looked pretty good in the bullpen, except for hitting that one batter of course.
Sox were 6 for 20 and 2 for 12 with RISP today.

I'm not sure if I'm the driver of the Eduardo Rodriguez Bandwagon, but I'm at least riding shotgun. That guy's going to be ready to help later this year.

If you think it means something, that's much, much worse. RISP is meaningless, spring training statistics are meaningless, anything with such a single-game sample size is meaningless. So RISP in a single spring training game is a triply-meaningless thing. Seriously. Stop doing it. It brings down the quality of content on the forum.

You know, if people didn't quote what larrycook wrote I wouldn't have to read it.

The real issue is that he's posting these meaningless spring training RISP numbers and not following it up with a "gutless" or "inexcusable." Rookie move.

We can't have Baseball ready to begin without people overreacting in spring training. Where's the pessimism???

Anybody knows when minor league spring training will officially start? Apologies if I missed an answer, but I believe today was the "official" final report date (though nearly everyone was already there). There were morning workouts, drills etc. in the mornings over the last week. Games start March 18.

Went to two games, and let me say, Clay Buchholz looked great yesterday.

Here's a link to the Twins' schedule: www.springtrainingonline.com/teams/minnesota-twins-4.htmAs Kelly said, games in the Sox-Rays-O's-Twins "pod" start on the 18th. You can tell who the Sox ML'ers are playing on a given day because they're either playing the Twins, which would be on that schedule, or the team between the O's or Rays who the Twins are not playing that day. Don't know which field the upper or lower minors guys will be at yet though in that latter case. For everyone's reference the SP crew will be in town the 18th through the 22nd (actually, Ian and Meoli are getting in on the 17th and are getting rewarded with a camp day).

Here's the PawSox schedule, from which you can extrapolate the rest: AA will be the same, A will be same opponent affiliate, but the opposite of home/away.

From that piece: That's actually pretty cool ... I was going to say something about this seeming like a good team, personality-wise. The 2013 team was close, but they were a little boring. This team seems a little more fun but potentially as close. Like the article says, it may mean nothing, but it makes the team fun to root for and follow for the summer.

Mookie supplied the fishing rods and Dustin drove the golf cart. I have no idea where they got the hats. LOL, "the wilds": Pics from PeteAbe twitter.

Yup he looked good yesterday, 0-3 certainly didn't tell the whole story. Almost had a single up the middle, and took the ball the other way in his 2nd at-bat, ended up lining out to SS. Don't see where he fits in with Boston, but if anything he's increasing his trade value.

Don't see where he fits in with Boston, but if anything he's increasing his trade value. He really should go nowhere this year. He's a lot more valuable to the Red Sox as injury insurance stuffed in AAA than we'd get in a trade right now. I like JBJ as depth for Castillo and Betts a lot more than Sizemore as depth for JBJ and Victorino.

I like JBJ as depth for Castillo and Betts a lot more than Sizemore as depth for JBJ and Victorino. Double that. He is excellent depth for us this season, and he has the opportunity to really increase his value by having a good season in Pawtucket....and permitting us to get more in a trade. He probably will be an add on and not the primary piece, but with solid improvement at AAA, were he could definitely use several hundred more at-bats, he will actually be sought after. I really like the depth Ben has accumulated for us in the ML and in AAA (and yes even in the rotation).
