After a very shaky 1st inning in which he threw 34 pitches and gave up a run, Henry C. Owens (in his career major league debut) settled down and retired 14 of the next 15 batters that he faced.

He then gave up a single and a double to start the 6th , and was yanked ....... and both of said runners scored.

Aside from the fact that I am annoyed about the Yankees re-taking the lead, John Farrell had a kid making his major league debut who was in danger of being blown out in the 1st inning. He not only settled down, but actually dominated the Yankees over the next 4.67 innings after being in deep trouble in the 1st inning ...... and Farrell chose to extend him an extra inning as a priority for his last-place team with no chance to make the postseason.

I hope that you had a happy 53rd birthday, Farrell ...... creep.

If the Red Sox were playing any other team besides the Yankees, I really wouldn't care.

But considering the fact that I hate the Yankees more than any team in baseball AND the fact that the Yankees are in 1st place in our division, something like this really burns.

    • Starting point has changed.  Given the fact he has approx 1/7th of his season in the books at 1.139, to OPS just .780 for the season, he'd have to drop off to under .730 the rest of the way.  That sort of drop off wouldn't be acceptable to me. I'd like him to OPS .800 the rest of the way for roughly .850 for the season.  The more they use him in a platoon role, the better I think that number might be.
    • Can I ask how you timed it vs the DVR?  Did you use a stopwatch or count click with pause/FF, or something else?
    • I can’t fathom why anyone would want a Tanner Scott return. In 10 innings, he is 0-4 with a 1.78 whip. He was maddening before, and now he’s older. But I wonder if the Red Sox would part with Justin Slaten? He’s been pretty outstanding. Yeah, only 8 innings, but we hired Yohan Ramirez, and he’s been a catastrophe in 10. Yes, I know he’s a rule 5, and the Bosox are in the East. And their pitching is pretty thin, too. But they know they aren’t going anywhere in this division, and they might think getting a good return for a Free Rule 5 guy might be worthwhile.
    • This draft unfolded weirdly.  First with the *nix guys getting taken early and then how no defensive players got taken all draft, and then a bunch of teams reaching for OTs.  I'm pretty happy with how the draft unfolded because I think we got a player that I expected to be gone by the teens or early 20s.  I don't know what we're doing with our OL but hopefully we can maybe trade up from 62 to pick someone up.
    • I have it on dvr and I timed it four times. I got 10.75, 10.80, 10.74, and 10.78.
    • This is exactly what EDC said tonight     
    • My guess is more of a safety profile than they preferred. They clearly wanted Wiggins. They ran that pick up fast. And then when you listen to the press conference, the love for the player was obvious.
