Maybe Hickey is the new Schwarber? Reminds me of when Sam Travis was the new Schwarber. The connection there was they batted back to back at Indiana. I don't think anyone could've called Sam Travis the new Schwarber when they were the same age. |

We swept down on the farm. Van Belle had a nice pitching line. Whitlock too. My bad I didn’t see the 2nd one from Woo Sox. Still good day |

For the second game of the doubleheader in Hartford, I sat with the Sox video team that travels with Portland. I asked about Gambrell and Liu's starts this week. Gambrell had very good command of 4 pitches, with the fastball 92-93 and a swing and miss change. Liu was 98 with a sometimes unhittable slider, definitely major league pitches. He thought Liu would only be in Portland for a few more starts. Great guys to sit with and watch a game. Honestly I could see CJ Liu taking Murphy’s spot in Worcester very soon. Best to try seeing how the Murphy BP experience shakes out for now. I love it, it’s nice to have cost controlled bullpen help. Personally I think not getting anywhere make the transition as soon as possible because the pen can be volatile |
