Michael Feliz had to go to make room for Ort.
A comedy of riches ... bullpen is so stacked with talent that there was no place for Feliz.
Bonus info: going back 12 years (MLB & milb) to age 18, Yolmer had pitched one inning in 2020 for ChiSox.
2h, 1R, 1 HR.

Sell any free agents that can't be signed to new deals ... reload & make a run at a wildcard spot.
As the Mets always said, "we'll be playing meaningful baseball in September."

There were so many things wrong with that all-star game ... if I watched it, I'd be aware of twice as many problems.
I guess the AL pitchers were impressive

Ever heard of Steve Pearce? Lookup when the Red Sox acquired him in 2018. Dave regularly made in-season moves. Moreover, you can’t really say with a straight face that someone like CJ Cron playing for a team like the Rockies would demand a King’s ransom. Okay, so your complaint isn't about the offseason; it's that they haven't made a trade with teams that probably aren't even ready to make trades yet.
From reports, it looks like Cron won't be available. I doubt Cooper will be. Bell surely will, but it's still early. Santana was obviously available, so fair enough if you think that's the big move Bloom should have made.
Nats' Joey Meneses, RHB 1B, 17 HR. Could be had for cheap.

Don't freak when Rafaela isn't in the lineup today - looks like he left for Los Angeles Don't freak when Rafaela isn't in the lineup today - looks like he left for Los Angeles. He's the next Mookie Betts & was just traded to the Dodgers.

What's the right move in the 7th?
Start with Davis to face LH, RH, LH allowing TB to start to use their RH pinch-hitters?
Or Schreiber, to keep the weak lefties in the game?
The same 3 were coming around in the 9th to face Houck

WooSox on the road ran into the so-called "Dark Knight" in game 1. 7-inning complete game.
Will we see Groome in game 2?

It is still sad that Michael Feliz had to go. Look at those '22 stats. OPSA.
ORT & Valdez serve the purpose.
They won't need a 5th starter til the 26th. But Winky hasn't been optioned ...
Barnes to the 60-day (July 31) ... means that there's nothing grave with Kiké or Seabold. At least not diagnosed yet.

Diekman on the 40-man page shows $4 million for '24 in green. (Player option)
Baseball Reference.com claims it is a team option for '24.

The Red Sox need to lengthen the lineup and improve infield defense. Go get bell. Also They have only 3 dependable relief pitchers. They need Whitlock to get healthy. Hope Crawford stays in Boston when the other starters come back to reinforce the bullpen too. Crawford has done enough to earn a bullpen spot. He should be up ROS. While this team in the overall picture is going nowhere fast they'll still make the playoffs and get bounced fairly quick. Might as well mix some of these guys into the pen and see if you can uncover some cheap relievers. See what you can get for Diekman too. If this team does spiral in the next few weeks you could probably sell sky high on Schreiber and get a legitimate top 100 prospect back for him. Schreiber is MIN

Berrios had a year and a half of control when he was traded last season, same as Castillo, and he fetched two 50 FV prospects. That's equivalent to like a Yorke + Bello package, maybe? But Castillo is a little better than Berrios, so maybe toss another guy in the 10-15 range or so on there as well. ADD: A little more quality and less quantity than bosoxnation's proposal, but I think both are probably in the ballpark.
Yorke top 5 Mata top 10 Rafaela top 10 Seabold top 15 Crawford just to give them an MLB ready pitcher. How is that not quality? Please enlighten me. Don't trade away the farm for some Stiff ...

Feliz can start in 5 days.
When was the last time he threw 48 pitches at any level? 2015?
Edit: now at 61 pitches. Feliz is my new binky, whatever that means.
Just think, his arrival was impeded by Robles. Age 29, out of options

Nestor was not the molester tonight
Yep. Seabold can put in a worker's comp claim and Cora should retain legal counsel.
Groome vs. Nestor shoulda been the matchup

Are they really going to DFA Davis when Taylor is available to return? idk I dont see it. No. It’s weird he hasn’t been used much but there’s gotta be like 5-6 guys ahead of him on the DFA list Valdez has pitched well this year (.600 OPSA MLB/milb), but he's 30 1/2 and in his last option year. Online, it looked like Sawamura was getting squeezed by ump.
