This Sox bullpen is the same one they had in spring '19.
Jimy Williams could deal with this roster. With Kerrigan.

Is service time counting for rookies? Does the FA clock start if we bring young guys up this year? I thought I heard it was frozen this year? Service time counts as always . Pro-rated. About 3X. So if Dalbec is in Boston for 30 days, that's 90 days service time. Approx. Somebody such as Wilson CF .... has burned an option year.

TAYLOR active. Mazza optioned. Arroyo to Covid19 list.
Per MassLive "Arroyo did not test positive for the virus and is still going through the intake screening process required for players who change teams in the middle of the season.
When Arroyo is activated, the team will have to make a 40-man roster move to add him"

I'm just wanting to know who was the first baseman at the end of the game.

Weber will be quick out of the pen for one of those four, so you can pencil in one victory. 2 bullpen guys likely to be optioned today. Brasier? Walden? Why do you think 2 guys will be optioned today ? Need room for Mazza, Arroyo.

Pete Abraham @peteabe · 7h #RedSox actually announced four starters in a row. Sunday: Chris Mazza, Monday: Martin Perez, Tuesday: Zack Godley, Wednesday: Kyle Hart Hart is getting another start? Jesus you can already pencil 3 losses in. Weber will be quick out of the pen for one of those four, so you can pencil in one victory. 2 bullpen guys likely to be optioned today. Brasier? Walden?

Lin can catch as well, he really can do it all. 9 years in minors, Lin never Caught or Pitched an inning. Why not? Now he's our Emergency guy. Plawecki, Peraza: both pitched twice in '19. Neither pitched once in the minors.

Positive developments the past few days. Arauz, Weber, Hart. Sox Prospects.
That will tamp down the sour mood.
Sure to be more positive events in the next week. Deal with it.

Fully expecting the Red Sox TBD starter for the Sunday game to be replaced by SMDH. Small molecule/DNA hybrid has had flashes of dominance.

Peraza in LF tonite.
The turf is new to him ... and the white roof. I wish him the best.

Gonsalves LHP, age 26. interesting player, if his elbow is ok. Hart LHP. age 27 Houck RHP, age 24 Mata RHP, age 21 Shawaryn RHP, age 26 there is plenty of young starting pitching there at the Pawsox training site to keep September interesting. Twice-waived Gonsalves? Shawaryn, who doesn’t crack our own own top 35 prospects? Hart, who doesn’t crack our own top-40? These are guys who could come and pitch ok for a few starts but are no part of a serious rebuild. I said Houck could be good bullpen piece. And Mata might be special, but he is a ways away. Absolutely no reason to have him up now. You are throwing out what is mostly organizational depth to suggest some rosy future. To my eyes, it actually shows how bleak things are for the next couple of years. Best case scenario is Mata and Groome being frontline starters by 2023ish. And blessed-by-god scenario is Song gets back and rocks. Mata is Rule 5 for DEC, which puts him on the radar for September. Otherwise, you're likely to see him in the next 24 months. . All those young stars are making it tough to crack the top 35 list. Gonsalves: his elbow is a mystery. But with Chaim Bloom at the helm, you won't be lulled to sleep.

such negativity.
Sox were over/under at 89 in Jan. Losing Sale and and E-Rod puts them at 77.
they were at 31 in July.
I like this roster. Chaim should do well rotating 55 guys up and down. Jeter Downs and Duran are the 2 guys that aren't Rule 5 eligible until Dec '21, so I doubt they start their service time this year.
Red Sox Prospects. My understanding of the term includes all of the above.

Jen McCaffrey @jcmccaffrey · 4m Roenicke on reconsidering Weber's rotation spot: "Not really. Who do we have that we can say we're going to put in that's going to be better than Ryan?" Ha, well he's candid at least. Chaim would never say such a thing. 1. it has only been 2 starts for Weber 2. there is a healthy supply of starters in the system who are ready for their Sox debut. He could ask Dave Bush. Godley better pitch well today.

Those are distinct cases. Pedroia is due his money and it will count against the cap. Castillo was DFAd and there were no takers. He came back off the books. His salary isn't part of the cap calculations. The caveat is that I have not read through the agreement for this shortened season. There may be some contingencies in there I'm unaware of. Yes, Pedroia is due his money. But I'd think he'll be getting $5 million, not the full $13m. Unless he's allowed to opt out of the season and carry his contract over to 2021.

Research topic: Pedroia & Rusney ... do we presume they are getting a pro-rated salary? This is costing them big money. Do they have the option of taking the year off and carrying their contract over til 2021?

From the outside looking in, Brian Johnson seems to be the most likely 5th starter in April.
