General Red Sox Discussions / Re: Bosox Road Trip

Quote from: Sea Dog 23 on June 02, 2024, 12:07:45 PMI had the privilege of sharing a front row set of seats with longgame today. Impressed with Ted's great knowledge of baseball.

It was a pleasant day in Charlotte, more like New England weather.  Played the White Sox AAA club in Charlotte.  A good showing today by WooSox, with a Dalbec homer. but Winchowski dug a pitching hole that they could not get out of.  But WooSox do have a rising star in Dick Fitts, who should get a call up later this year when the Sox rotation thins out.  Fitts pitched a perfect game into the 8th earlier this week.

Thanks SeaDog, I had a great time!  It was helpful to learn more about some of these prospects as you follow them pretty deep into the minors.  Dalbec and Westbrook were called up the next day.  We weren't impressed with Westbrook who had a throwing error although the 1B should have fielded it.  On the minor league scoreboard they don't note where people are playing that day, but they do show a default of IF, OF, C.  Every position player was listed as an IF (Dalbec was playing RF).  One of the catchers was the DH.  Let's just say there doesn't seem to be a lot of help coming.  Sogard was at SS but the great seats we had were just past 1B so it was hard to tell the misses on some ground balls but it seemed like he had a couple he should have had.

We'd love to get some of the other "local" guys for another outing.

 Looks llke  Booser was out of gas in extra's today.

 The schedule gets serious with Braves, Phils and Yanks coming up.
A short breather with Chisox in between.

Quote from: Sea Dog 23 on June 01, 2024, 05:37:09 PMEnmanuel Valdez was promoted from Worcester to Boston and had a big day at DH.  3 hits incl two homers and three RBI's.

Something happened to Grissom, Wong played most of the game at 2B.  He is quite an athlete,

Grissom pulled his hammy on a run to first.

We could have used Valdez at the Charlotte game today.

Decent game. Gave up a couple runs late but pitching was good overall. Some good hitting and defense. Over .500 again.

Decent game all around. Houck looked real good. Bats came alive. Sox win 7-3.
