    5/10/2024 - How many stocks do we really have in stock? Ayy

    Would be nice for Greenville offense to show some life outside of Campbell. My guy Castro is having a rough May, after an .800 ops April. A .310 OBP this month to date after over .400 last month. C’mon in-game power!

    Marcelo Mayer, 2021 1-4

    Mayer with another homer tonight. It’s possible his power translates more than originally thought - even after the shoulder injury in May last year, he was strong enough to hit 6 homers in Portland.

    2024 Greenville Drive (High-A)

    This may be true, and if so, we will maybe see some change as Romero comes online in the coming weeks, Bleis settles in, and hopefully one or both Garcias can play. I’m coming around to the view that due to the changes to the minors in the past few years, such as the elimination of short-season...

    Sox trade John Schreiber to KC for minor league right-hander David Sandlin

    Weird take in that the bullpen had been strong overall, and the trade opened a spot for one of those mentioned above. the pickup in that trade was upside, a guy who has 15 innings this season in high A (which is already more than Schribers small MLB sample this year) an outside chance to be an...

    2024 Greenville Drive (High-A)

    To put in perspective some offensive numbers: League offense and Drive offense have friends in low places. https://www.baseball-reference.com/register/league.cgi?id=cd876f3b League average age as 22.3, and the average offensive line as .220/.322/.346/.668 Last season was the same for league...

    Allan Castro

    Starting a thread for the switch-hitting Outfielder, currently in High-A Greenville after finishing there the second half of last year, and was good, with a .355 OBP and .801 OPS. Castro seems to have a good plate approach, and scouts like his chances to show power, though it hasn’t yet fully...

    Nick Yorke

    The last Sox Prospects podcast also mentioned a personal off-field issue during ST that held up Romero, not necessarily all injury-related.

    Nick Yorke

    I also wonder if they are keeping this group of prospects together a little more by keeping Yorke in Portland at least until Grissom seems ready to join the MLB club. Yorke, Anthony, Mayer at least seem really tight, and they had them with Teel and Blaze last year and over the winter a bit. I...

    Marcelo Mayer, 2021 1-4

    Mayer starting off as well as one could hope this season in Portland. Hits in all 6 games played. https://www.milb.com/player/marcelo-mayer-691785?stats=gamelogs-r-hitting-mlb&year=2024 8/23 on the young season, with 2/6 BB/K thus far, with a double and a homer. He’s already seen some...

    4/13/2024 - Getting Early Late

    Not to steal you thunder, Anthony’s homer in the second game was a first pitch lead off job, to left field. It looks like the catcher set up middle-middle, the pitcher delivered, and the Roman delivered. View: https://twitter.com/PortlandSeaDogs/status/1779304627906687420

    4/13/2024 - Getting Early Late

    Roman went deep in the nightcap as well. 1/3 with a walk, the HR, a steal and 2ks Mayer DH’s and had a hit 2k’s and a steal as well. Eddinson Paulino, the other-other top 20 Sox prospect on this roster, also played in both games and went yard in both...

    4/13/2024 - Getting Early Late

    These little Portland twitter video promos for the pitchers are great. Helcris gets flames where Penrods little intro had some much smoke you would think he was on tour with Redman and Method Man.

    4/12/2024 - PERALES Pitches Phenomenally...Preferably...perhaps PENROD?

    I see Grissom having grounded out as the DH.

    This hit right after a tough couple days. Man, Remy’s smokers cough is one I miss.

    4/5/24 - Opening Day x3

    Castro’s 5 walks, at least per GameDay, were 3 7-pitch at-bats, a 6-pitch at bat and a 4 pitch at-bat. 31 total pitches. I didn’t look at how many times he swung the bat, but it doesn’t look like he just benefited from total wildness by pitchers. Castro has what looks like a bunch of...
