Salem needs to get three guys on in the 7th to give Benintendi (0/3) a chance at extending the hit streak.
Swihart the only PawSox without a hit.
Hernandez, with a 2B and HR, now at .366 / .416 / .507.

Moncada with 2 more Ks. I really hope he doesn't get promoted 'cause it could get ugly vs AA pitchers.

Also can we quit it will the god damn Blake Swihart at LF?
An average bat in LF is pretty worthless. An average bat at catcher with his athleticism? The is worth a good amount more.
Why do the Red Sox always have to do dumb stuff?

Seriously bro' you got some anger issues you need to work on, it's like you'e using this forum to bitch and moan ALL THE TIME. Just chill and stop calling people names: You disagree? Fine, but there's no needs for insults. ADD: Where did you saw me saying that he sucks? All I'm saying that if he doesn't harness his contact issues, he'll be a good prospect, not a great one worth a 63 millions investment.

Why do the Red Sox always have to do dumb stuff? Counterpoint: a "good hitting for a catcher" player who can also field another defensive position adequately, or better, is more valuable than "a good hitting for a catcher" player who can not. Rhetorical question of my own: Why do some find this so hard to grasp?

Benintendi is starting another streak hopefully they let this one extend to Portland soon. First time poster but longtime reader and user of sox prospects

Game 2
Moncada with a spectacular play on a GB between first and second. He sure got off the ground fast.
Benintendi broke up a perfect game with a single in the fourth.

True but a good hitting catcher who defends better because he spent more time practicing his craft at 23 is worth more than the subpar LF combo version. Why do some find this so hard to grasp ?

All I'm saying that if he doesn't harness his contact issues, he'll be a good prospect, not a great one worth a 63 millions investment. I'll disagree. And I have yet to see a single analysts place Benintendi over Moncada.

I said your constant bitching about Moancada striking out at a slightly above average rate is dumb. And it is. Grow thicker skin. Sometimes even smart people say dumb things.

Moncada and Benintendi at it again (along with a lot of folks). Moncada with a rocket 3 R HR to left then Beninendi knocked in Dubon with a down the RF line flair double.
SalSox with a 7 R 5th so far.

Since the whole "Moncada strikes out too much" argument started a week ago, he's gone 8 for 21 with 3 doubles, 3 homers, 12 runs scored, 9 RBI, 3/3 stolen bases, and four walks. .381/.480/.810. But yeah those six strikeouts totally make him a non-prospect. Hope the Sox can get Fernando Rodney for him before he's exposed to Double-A pitching.

SalSox with a 7 R 5th so far. Looked more like a rocket than a flair from the video Josh Norris posted. The TV feed only caught the landing. It didn't appear to be a rocket based on how it was fielded but I haven't seen Norris' video yet.

Yeah, an .810 OPS is pretty mediocre for someone with his contact issues..... Oh wait, you mean that is an .810 SLG% and a 1.290 OPS? Terrible.

Tweet from @hudsonbelinsky: Andrew Benintendi just destroyed a 95-mph heater from Connor Walsh, ripping it into the RF corner for a double. #stud
