Kluber rehab pushed back because of travel issues. Reyes rehabbing though.

Is Kyle Teel the new Joe Mauer? My column.

Is Kyle Teel the new Joe Mauer? My column. I remember going to a Sea Dogs game and was watching the other team (New Britain) warm up. I noticed the catcher throwing what seemed like missiles about 2 feet off the ground to the second base bag. I thought, wow, who is this. It was Joe Mauer. It would be nice if Kyle Teel was a Joe Mauer type player (only with a longer career). |

The similarities are there: Bats lefty, former HS QBs, great arms behind the dish, tons of contact, low liners to LF... |

Wikelman with six straight strikeouts to start his outing. Nine swinging strikes.
Apparently it was Ryan Miller and the box score wasn't changed. Hoppe in after two innings.

I don't see a Mauer at all, maybe more Poseyish but, how I really think of it is Wong/Swihart heavy.
Another future thing to think about L/R batters in a Teel/Wong tandem. I'm hoping the Sox lock up Wong this off-season (I like him when he isn't overworked).

How much longer would you want them to lock him up for? |

How much longer would you want them to lock him up for? In general, catcher careers start later than any other position. That said, 2 years extension would work for me but, not as options and without no-trade clauses, I want to see the Sox maximize the 2024 AAV, not defer it. |
