Two good, two not so good starts for Light this year. Kukuk has allowed 6 baserunners (BB+H, at least) in his last two starts (10 IP).
EDIT: Removing the talk about Kukuk trying to beat Johnson to Salem. I forgot just how little he really has pitched as a pro. There was talk of a A- placement this year. I'd like to see Kukuk get to Salem, but it probably won't be for a while.

I would like one step by one year approach with Kukuk. Because he is pretty raw.

I doubt Aceves makes the start in Pawtucket. He probably gets the call to Boston if Hanrahan hits the DL.
If he's called up, Kehrt will be activated from his paper move to Lowell to start, most likely. Hernandez piggybacked yesterday, Godfrey the day before.

They don't want Aceves anywhere near the big league club now. If I were in Cherington's shoe's I would have flat out released him. |

This Iglesias thing is out of hand. I can see sitting a guy for one game for lack of hustle. All that's being done now is hurting his development and lowering his trade value.

Careful, we don't know what's happening before the scenes. If Iglesias is acting up in the clubhouse, benching him might be the best option.

Unless I missed something we really still don't have any idea why he's sitting. According to a piece in the Globe, staff decided he need some time to regroup. " He has been dealing with some things". Of course, who knows what is going on, other than there isn't any physical issues. |

We don't even know if this is disciplinary. Maybe he's dealing with a family situation, something back in Cuba that was affecting him ... who knows? Speculation of any kind now is pretty useless. But there's never even been a hint in the past of any issues with him, so I'm inclined to just give him the benefit of the doubt and wait and see.

Ranaudo's first missteps really. Got two outs in the 6th then gave up a HR, 2B, 2B, E6, K

Kelly said in yesterday's gameday thread that he did, in fact, stop running on the groundout before he was pulled from his last game.
We know he's not hurt. They'd just say so. Other than that, who knows.

Mookie Betts, 0-0 3 walks. Not here to play, just spectating.

Jayson Hernandez breaks up a no-no in the 5th with an RBI double. Drive trail 3-1.

Garin Cecchini had struggled in the last game and he rebounded with double and HR today. That' the way a good player does.

There is no reason Cecchini should be in A ball right now. Log jam my butt - challenge him and jump him to AAA for two weeks to see how he responds. Those OBP skills will travel.

Agree to an extent...but no reason to push him all the way to AAA. WMB to DL, Aceves DFAd, Synder to big leagues, Vitek to Pawtucket (because his development as a prospect is a lost cause), Cecchini to Portland If I were Cherington (and WMB was actually injured), those are the moves I'm making tomorrow morning. |

Aceves with a decent outing yesterday; seven IP,2er to get the win. There's got to be some team desperate for pitching that's willing to try to see if a change of teams will bring him around mentally.

Boy that Greenville team seems completely devoid of talent based on performance so far. Gonna be a long year there. Hopefully the draft will replenish the lower minors.
I really can't see Aceves with much value to anyone. If he were 24, maybe. But he has a long track record of being a loose cannon. A team would have to have a highly skilled person on staff that could perform the necessary lobotomy. Too bad because he does have a good arm and appears to be a fierce competitor (most times).

But there's never even been a hint in the past of any issues with him, so I'm inclined to just give him the benefit of the doubt and wait and see. We actually know quite a bit about what's going on. He failed to run out two different ground outs, and he's been lolly-gagging and pouting. He has had attitude problems in the past, so I'm not sure where you get the idea that he's been some model citizen. Even if you don't buy this article there have been two others the last couple days that have confirmed it's disciplinary ... Iglesias issues |
