Geeze, highest in all the minors? I'm thinking he is trending towards making the 40 this winter.

I wonder if it is time to move Chris Murphy to the bullpen? Whitlock and Crawford are rehabbing which would leave only Drohan, Walter, and Dermody in the rotation though….
Rotation
RH Garrett Whitlock
LH Matt Dermody
LH Shane Drohan
LH Brandon Walter
LH Chris Murphy
Bullpen
RH Kutter Crawford

Would be interesting to know if that is tied to a development in a secondary pitch, or if he's just overpowering guys with the fastball. Either way, exciting indicator given he's so young still. |

He simply has not shown you anything that says he's a SP. I totally agree! Maybe Bloom will sign a AAA free agent to fill one or both of the open spots (presuming Murphy to the pen and Whitlock to Boston) in the AAA rotation. I think the Red Sox need to see what Murphy can do from the bullpen before the Rule 5s need to be added in November. Like Seabold, Darwinzon, German and several others, if there are better option in the system, then some 40-man spots need to moved at some point to make room for the up and coming. First, though Murphy and others need to be given a shot in a roll they can succeed. |

I think the original poster means that his current 40-man spot should be given to other talent this offseason but we should first have a chance to see what he looks like out of the bullpen. |

2-run HR for Niko Kavadas. Sea Dogs out to a 2-0 lead after a half inning.
Nick Yorke doubled over the CF's head. Rafaela singled to CF, but Yorke was thrown out at home. Rafaela stole 3rd. Kavadas put a 3-2 pitch into the 2nd deck in RF.

Kavadas had a .218 slugging average in April, and now a .765 in May.

CJ Liu looks pretty good. Lots of bad-looking swings, lots of weak contact. I've only seen one ball that was hit well.

2-run double for Hickey scores Yorke and Rafaela. 8-0 Sea Dogs in the 5th.
Two batters later, Binelas swats a 2-run shot to left... 11-0.

The control remains an issue, but he was carrying mid-high 90s into the 6th inning with some nasty looking breaking stuff. I understand that he's 24 and that his 2022 was horrific, but it feels like anyone who has those two things as a starter in AA could be higher than 58. Though again, that 2022 was not good. |
