Today's game postponed due to weather.   Day/night DH on 4/28.

Another day all alone in first place.

Lot's of positives in this game. Starts with great start by Reynaldo, continued low strikeout rate by Matty and Adam E, Wellington, and we knew we had an iffy bullpen.  Farquhar sucks.

Yeah, I don't think Andy's "This Team Sucks" document is appropriate anymore. Sure, they're not a great team yet but this is a different era where they'll have some young guys going through some growing pains for a bit. But there is a definite light at the end of the tunnel now. We're a far cry from the teams of the recent past that had no chance, no direction, no personality and were just boring to watch.

Thought we had that one last night. We were up 2-1 and I thought the pen would hold them, Farquhar is the one guy I thought we could have replaced and not brought back. Oh well, at least we are playing well for the most part.

First game i got to see this year... I know beating a dead horse and all... but Yoan is not ready... he needs time in the minors with pitch recognition... badly.

He's not going to learn pitch recognition against AAA pitchers, he needs to learn it up in the bigs. Its not like we are in the playoffs this year.

Moncada is among leaders in barrel percentage.  He is hitting the ball hard when he hits it.

Rhys Hoskins, Cody Bellinger, Scott Kingery say hi.

He is not picking up breaking pitches very well at all.. you can most definitely learn that in AAA thru repetition and exposure.

Someday the Sox will have a hitting prospect who is actually ready for the majors when he is called up... some day.

Look how Gordan Beckham learned how to hit in the majors.

Check out Tim Anderson's great strides in this recently... another great example.

Anderson doing great.  You learn and improve facing better comp.
