If any of those 8 players makes his MLB debut in the next week, it'd be Valdez.
There's room.

Hartford lost their 5th straight to Somerset, preventing Portland from making progress on the playoff clinch ... thus, keeping Hartford alive for the playoffs.
Coincidence? 5 losses in a row, each one helping their playoff chances ...

If Portland fails, Hartford makes the playoffs

Find something you love as much as DFA loves Michael Feliz and you’ll be happy in life Hartford Yard Goats can help their playoff cause by losing the next 4 to Somerset. The comical Bowie Kuhn playoff system. Somerset swept them last night in a DH, including a 7-inning no-hitter Every game Hartford wins vs. Somerset moves Hartford closer to elimination

Honestly, why worry about fixing the offense the rest of this season? Seems like wasted energy tbh. Let Dalbec and Duran get their heads right in Worcester To make the games even remotely enjoyable to watch? To test a few things out to see which pieces should fit next year? Enmanuel Valdez should be our Sept DH

Sox play 8 games over a 12-day period (with 4 off days)
So I hope we don't hear incessantly about the staff being overworked and how the rotation is thin

Another win, yet another day "gaining ground on nobody"
Now only 28 to go, one day closer to extermination

This was a Sorry about the rant, but this nice comeback win reminds me how much I want relevant baseball into October. The Sox are playing meaningful baseball in September. That's a start. And they're over the Luxury Tax threshold. Which means they spent too much.

Well - that was generally very unimpressive. Poor defense, mediocre hitting, bad starting pitching, bad relief pitching. What's not to hate!? and....that's it, it seems - 538 has our playoff chances at less than 1% - we are now greyed out. Done and dusted. Are you sure? I was told they were about to play “meaningful games in September”. Jays won. The fat lady is singing and the toast is burnt ...

Cora shown in the dugout. He looks shellshocked. Barnes is back . He manages his bullpen like Don Zimmer

Michael Feliz in August: 9 inn., .097 BAA
He can't get a call up into this solid Twins bullpen
Bench J.D. Use the DH to give Devers & X some rest

They. Must. DFA. Brasier. He has to go. Cora can't quit him - it is bizarre. Brasierism is a compulsion. 6.70

Baseball purgatory? Kelly, Ort, and Story all looked good. The big question is who will be with the Red Sox in 2023, so for me, each game is an assessment of who they will keep, attempt to re-sign, and what position they will play them at (Cordero at CF in emergency or will they try to platoon him with a re-signed Hernandez???). Top that run-on sentence if you can, lol. Purgatory in terms of not truly tanking - the impact on draft position - and for the fans who want to see the team win. But - I agree with you that the remaining games need to be to kick tires on as many young players as possible. Things are really starting to gel for this group. It's coming together as planned. (just rest Devers by putting him at DH & JD is a good bench option)

This might be heresy, but I hate the Rays more than I hate the Yankees. I am insulted by the prospect of finishing behind this team. They are not impressive, and it is infuriating. Sox will be playing meaningful baseball in September ... just a few days away

I'd lament that the board is dead during a competitive game, but totally understand how last night could have broken even the most ardent of Sox fans... I'm still confident we lose in 10. Sox will be playing meaningful baseball in September ... that's always been the goal

Who do I talk to at the Red Sox to get my free $6,000,000? Paxton got some. Sox will pick up the $13M team option on Paxton
