Wilyer is the 35th best bat speed in MLB. Dunno just how good he will be, but I'm extremely confident he's a long term starter Me too. Pretty great for a guy that was never projected above a 4.5 on the SP prospects board. (I'm not taking a poke at the ranking/rating - I didn't see this above-averageness coming either).

If Sox had a mildly fresh pen I feel like you give Houck a pat on the back for a decent start while not being the sharpest, but with the pen gassed from extras they might need to try to steal another couple outs

Hamilton raising his stock today. Not a real cerebral baseball player, but a pretty fine athlete.

Yes he can! Let’s party

After watching Smith at DH, I do not think anyone will every complain about Yoshida at DH again.

Damn. I was hoping for a bloop single that scored three. There has never been a moment in Sox history with that much speed on loaded bases.

The last few nights I noticed the light show on Red Sox HR's. I thought they had stopped but maybe I was just oblivious. Have they been doing that all season or recently restart doing it?

Wilyer worst at bat as a Red Sox: chasing 2 pitchs and taking one down the middle. Very uncharacteristic.

what is Cora doing

Ummm. Earth to Cora? Your ace needs the hook.
Add: Let's run his pitch count up on a night when he clearly is laboring - good forward thinking...

Houck started out looking like he had his best stuff, but he's really had to grind most of this start

Are they going with a 6 man rotation? Only reason I can see for letting Houck throw 112 pitches.

At the very least, can have Criswell go again next week (Whitlock is starting Tuesday I believe?) before figuring out what they want to do to basically create an extra off day for the other 5 starters

2 runs allowed because of bad defense

Bello, Pivetta, Whitlock already spent time on the IL. Seems like the 6-man would give everybody extra rest and control their innings totals

U know I use to make excuses for Devers but I'm tired of this guy. At 3b.
Did Houck have to stay out there?
