Not a great day for Espinoza. 22 batters faced, 9 ground ball outs, no walks, no home runs. I'll take that even with only three Ks, especially since he's about 15 innings past his 2015 total. Just admit that he is not doing good. Those numbers you just gave us are a good way of hiding all the other things that happened in the game. Anyways, You can face 22 batters, get 9 gb outs, walk none, and not allow a home run and give up 15 hits and 10 runs .

Kimbrel is elite, don't let a few bad innings at beginning of year overlook his current stretch. There could be any number of elite closers in a given season. Not fair to say if not top 3 or top 5 he's not elite. "Elite" is not the same as "good." It refers to a small group that is clearly superior to the remainder of the cohort. Therefore, Kimbrel does not qualify for the last two years. Miller, Britton, Davis...there is a small group at the top, and Kimbrel isn't in it. If someone uses "elite" to refer to players simply in the top half or even top third, they're mis-using the word. Would you say koji was elite? At least for the 2013 season.

Benintendi, Betts, Bogaerts, Bradley, Devers, Espinoza, Moncada = Untouchable E-Rod, Johnson, Owens = Too late Aybar, Basabe's, Kopech, Ockimey,Raudes, Washington= Players That should be traded to help the major league team by the deadline.

You might see Buchholz and Farrell released the same day. I really do think they are going to wait until after the buchholz bowl then let him go.

I really think it went out of control when mike conley got the richest contract in nba history.

Horford and Cousins have some decent and improving range. Started to shoot more 3's last season.

Seriously as good as they Killer B's are at base running, they can be just as bad. With bogaerts im just talking about the head first slides to first base. John Farrell does not Deserve to manage this team.

Dom needs to offer an olive branch to the commish and make Castillo a FA as well. Hah by the looks of all those penalties the red sox would still have to pay him if they did.

I was watching mlb network this afternoon and Dave Dombrowski was on High heat with Chris "mad dog" Russo and was asked about trades and simply said right off the bat that everybody was asking for moncada benintendi and espinoza so...

Never underestimate the profound culture shock that Dominican kids have when they come to this country. Remember the former Red Sox pitcher who literally lived under a coconut tree before signing with an MLB team. I learned a great deal about the difficult conditions in the DR from 4 RS minor leaguers from the Dominican who lived with me off and on for a couple of months years back when the Sox and Mariners had a joint team in the Arizona Summer League. Hopefully, he has a support system at home. I believe it was a mango tree. But point well taken...

We can only hope that if we get him out of the stretch we can do some damage.

That was a terrible at bat by brentz. He wasnt even close chasing those first two balls. And then stares at a oitch right down the middle.

I agree with OB I am disturbed after watching that. Some people think e-rod will not recover from that performance. What about me?

Not a major league pitcher at this time...shouldn't be in the major leagues. Should be in all star game.
