Alex Verdugo called and led a team meeting a couple of hours before first pitch tonight, reports @bradfo.We all saw him set the tone by beating out a grounder to open the bottom of the first. But it seems he set the tone hours before that. pic.twitter.com/lFWOgn86Ow— Boston Sports Gordo (@BOSSportsGordo) May 17, 2023

he's a solid player but for reasons i can't fully explain i don't like that guy
― mookieproof, Thursday, 18 May 2023 03:38 (ten months ago) link
There’s a pretty troubling story about him from his Dodger days.
― Everybody's gonna get what they got coming (gyac), Thursday, 18 May 2023 07:49 (ten months ago) link
I remember that. When Kapler was coaching an LA farm team? iirc Verdugo wasn’t accused of anything but the situation was terrible and Kapler should have called the police.

btw how about Pablo Reyes??
<i>A week ago, Reyes was playing for the A’s Triple-A affiliate, unable to find a spot on the worst team in baseball. In need of middle infield help with Christian Arroyo out, the Sox acquired him for cash, and the 29-year-old has gone 8-for-19, including 2-for-5 with a pair of two-run doubles leading to a career-high four RBI Wednesday.<I>

might simply have been too embarrassed to DFA their opening-day starter after less than two months
― mookieproof, Wednesday, 24 May 2023 19:44 (ten months ago) link
Yeah. I think they were probably gentler with him given that Cora was talking about “mechanical adjustments” that needed to be done like three days ago. If an SP is genuinely trying to get better - and Kluber’s a pretty professional seeming guy, so assume this was the case - they probably merit a slightly gentler pushoff. But who knows?

Btw - BELLO. Genuinely a shining ray of light on this team.

it’s worth noting what a good read that was from casas s well to stretch himself into foul territory and give kutter a clean target to throw to

Yeah this is the conversation I was having with you the other day re first base fielding right? Does his handedness impact on that play at all?

idk if anything I think being a rightie actually helps him there? mookieproof to thread
― Tracer Hand, Sunday, 28 May 2023 14:36 (ten months ago) link
I watched the Bello innings and then the scores of last night’s game. Pretty rough outing for Bello but he only allowed one run, despite the best efforts of that guy who is not a shortstop. His skyhigh pitch count in the first two innings with all the sloppy breaking balls reminded me of a classic bad Zito outing in the 2012 NLDS against the Reds(!). And Joely Rodriguez isn’t Tim Lincecum.Actually, just looking through his pitching sequences, it looks like Maguire kept calling for his slider, which was a ball 99% of the time? Wtf? I should really look at it in more detail but yeah, I don’t think Maguire is much of a catcher. I am here because I do not want to talk about the Mariners. 🫣🫣🫣

Shoulder soreness which I guess could maybe just be soreness, I'm keeping my fingers crossed, but cora didn't seem optimistic.
― omar little, Friday, 2 June 2023 18:41 (nine months ago) link
Possible IL stint for Chris Sale, Cora said. He’s still sore and at least been ruled out for his next start. Doctors are reviewing MRI and Cora said the Red Sox will know more later on.

Hopefully he gets booed so loudly it gets in his peabrain and then he gets promptly shelled back to whatever minor/international league he came from.

yeah his pitching expertise should pay dividends longterm but my impression was that ownership (and certainly fans) want to start winning now - hope he can do both

¯\_(ツ)_/¯ just don’t trade Triston Casas for Kolten Wong and Bello for the corpse of Lance Lynn? Honestly though it depends if ownership gives him money. Might be moot if they don’t.

Breslow’s experience as a major league pitcher and his ideas for rebooting how the franchise develops and improves pitchers were noted. Case in point, watching Ryan Brasier, released by the Red Sox in May, thrive in the Dodgers bullpen didn’t sit well.”That obviously was disappointing,” Werner said. “We didn’t love the fact that he actually had a very productive season.”
