By the time spring training starts everyone is gonna expect Kristian Campbell to be the opening day 2B I think it would be unfair to expect that, but I'm hopeful he'll give a good hard shove. I'm gonna be able to get some ST games in next year, and what a year to be doing so! Should be an exciting camp. yo. i may try and get down there as well next year, been trying to the last few years. Fort Myers Beach got destroyed by the hurricane, lot of time to rebuild until then, but looked demolished. Love that beach.

Obviously he's limited given he's likely going to only be a first baseman... but the EV numbers are insane, it's going to depend on how it translates to the FCL... but he's a monster from all accounts.

Seeing Justin Gonzalez' birthdate of 12/31/2006 prompts me to ask: who will be the first Red Sox rookie to make their debut who was born after they broke the cruse? It won't be Roman Anthony (May 13, 2004).

It won't be Roman Anthony (May 13, 2004). Arias/Cespedes are your best bet currently it seems from what I can tell. Nobody has gotten to A+ yet that was born after the curse (Fraymi de Leon is close but was born 09/28/2004)

Now, I have been wondering if the Andrew Bailey pitching coach was the same Andrew Bailey that was a closer at one time for the Sox for most of the season, but was too lazy to look it up.
And now, I found out, yes, that it is the same guy. The next step was to try and research how well he did with us when he was on the squad. But before I did that, I had an uneasy feeling that whatever recollection I do have was mostly negative. I kind of remember we picked him up during the stretch run of some season, and he basicaly sh*t the bed.
My memory isn't that hot, so I was very happy to find out that, yes, he was a subpar performer for the Boston Red Sox. Good for my ailing memory.
Given that, is it too far fetched to be concerned that a guy who was a middling reliever for us, will be a middler pitching coach for us ?
And, heretofore, should i not quit smoking because his is going to be our pitching coach for the near future ?

I got a good feeling about him as well.

Pretty good start by Pivetta, but at 98 pitches, two on and one out, I'd bring someone in... maybe give Penrod a shot given Lowe's a lefty.
edit: Well... 1-0 Rays, great play to get the second runner out.

Thanks for everything Nick please reject the QO and good luck in ur future endeavors I think if he gets a QO he accepts... he's a 4-5 starter and you can't pay 20m for that.

Penrod 4 walks in 4 innings now. He's got potential but I am not a believer yet

Pivetta gets another run tacked on, this is the worst bullpen I’ve ever seen

Again, we're sniveling about the bullpen, but you win 0.0% of the games in which you score zero runs...

Great game. Losing, and Pivetta's last start for the Sox is a great one. Lose the next three games. Only time worth tanking is this last series of the year.

Rooting for your team to lose is just wrong, ramifications be damned (might make an exception if it somehow screwed the MFY or Astros). It can't all be a math problem..
