We've already blown 18 saves when all of last year, we blew 20. Bring in Mad Bum to be the closer or replace Eovaldi in the rotation and have him be the closer. He'd be a great closer. Should have signed ottovino or Andrew Miller in the off-season. Both guys could have been had for reasonable amounts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tom cody Posted July 1, 2019 Share Posted July 1, 2019 Yeah, the Red Sox bullpen is terrible. I wonder if a guy like Ken Giles could be available from the Blue Jays. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Leader Posted July 1, 2019 Share Posted July 1, 2019 ESPN: In the tight-knit world of baseball in the Dominican Republic, the legend of the kid spread quickly. He was a switch-hitter with world-class speed, an arm nobody would challenge and the body of a man. Someone called him El Marciano, and the nickname stuck. The Martian, it meant. Because there was no way he was from this world. The praise for Jason Dominguez started when he was barely a teenager, and it abounds still. And come this Tuesday, when he is expected to formalize a deal with the New York Yankees that includes a $5 million signing bonus, the 16-year-old center fielder instantaneously will become the most fascinating prospect for the game's most storied team, his debut next year eagerly anticipated by those who haven't seen him as well as by those who have. That latter group includes general managers, international scouting directors and other front-office personnel -- professional skeptics -- who still can't help but lavish Dominguez with the sort of compliments reserved for the top 1 percent of the top 1 percent. Nearly every description begins with a caveat that goes something like: "I know this sounds crazy, but ... " "But," one general manger who has seen him said, "he's like Mike Trout and Trout wasn't close to this good when he was 16." "But," an international scouting director who tried and failed to sign Dominguez said, "it's like Mickey Mantle. He's not 6-foot. He's a switch-hitter. He's got crazy power. He's fast as s---. He loves playing." "But," another general manager said, "he's like -- what's that running back's name? The short, strong one? Maurice Jones-Drew. He's all muscle. But it's not stiff. He's twitchy. Can move in all directions." Another veteran international scouting director didn't offer a player comparison but did summarize Dominguez simply: "He's the best July 2 player I've ever seen." He regularly reaches upward of 110 mph exit velocities swinging from both sides of the plate. Only 28 major leaguers have hit a ball 110 mph at least 10 times this season. Dominguez, two scouts said, has clocked around 6.3 seconds in the 60-yard dash. That's faster than Mo Hampton, arguably the best athlete in the MLB draft class of 2019, who decided instead to play cornerback at LSU this year.

tom cody Posted July 2, 2019 Share Posted July 2, 2019 Red Sox/Blue Jays series this week. Always a conflict for me when those 2 teams play as I cheer for them both despite the fact they're in the same division. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don't pass go, or collect $200. They announced Eovaldi will be our closer once he returns. But he can't get saves if the middle relievers blow the game first.
