Ia a move that reshapes the AL Central, Cleveland has traded ian Leon to Minnesota for Sandy Hamilton. I may have those names wrong but I do not think it really matters.

gasp!

Upgrade at 1B for the Red Sox:
https://www.mlb.com/news/eric-hosmer-rejects-trade-to-nationals

Still no idea what the Sox are giving up in this trade - part of me expects it to be one of our better starting pitchers.

Does Dalbec learn to play the outfield? Arm's strong enough, but I think he's way too slow. 3rd base for the time being, while we wait for Dever's return, with Arroyo moved to 2nd?

Who knows. But I can hope this is the end of the Cordero at 1st Base experiment...

once Hosmer recovers from his neck strain, that is.

We sent our #11 prospect. They sent their #11 and #26 prospects. They apparently also sent money to help pay for Hosmer's salary.

He can live in Acton, MA:

And if Story recovers.

Cassas will be there if he can get his AAA hitting up to align with everything before - or if he comes up and does it at the Major League level.

If Hosmer hits at Fenway and the AL East parks as he has in his career, then nobody is moving him out of the line-up. And if JD is not back next year, the DH spot will need filling.

I don't know what change he made, but if he can keep his numbers vs. lefties up and return his numbers vs. righties back to where they have usually been, then I'll have no complaints.

The Post-Vazquez Red Sox are a lot better with Pham in the outfield instead of Cordero. And with Devers in the line-up instead of not!

Hey, tomorrow, maybe both Devers and Bogaerts!

So the Red Sox pitching  staff which would have trouble in a beer league trades away one of them.

Groom wasn't going to impact this year's team or if he was then we would have been in more trouble than he could have helped to solve!

People who felt this group was good enough to make a run at it a few days ago, in my opinion, should still feel that way. This group looks a little different, but I don't think it

Another day, another injured pitcher for the Red Sox.

Looks like Castillo got the better of this one, though it's out of Castillo's hands now, at 7-3.

Didi Gregorius and Jackie Bradley Jr. were both released today. Does a team pick up either one?
