Red Sox Stats @redsoxstats · 51m Verdugo is hitting a ton of ground balls and it's really sapping his offensive production

Chris Cotillo @chriscotillo · 57m Red Sox pitching coach Dave Bush says the plan is for Chris Sale to be built up all the way (5-6 innings) before being activated. So it could be a while.
Cora says Danny Santana and Marwin Gonzalez are both feeling better, but he thinks one of them will go on the IL. Plawecki would be the move.

Pete Abraham @peteabe · 37m No roster moves yet for #RedSox. But possible Santana (quad) goes on the IL today and Plawecki is activated then Wong returns to AAA and they bring back another position player for the weekend.
Gonzalez (hamstring) is doing better, may not need the IL.
Lots of indications that Tanner Houck is going to be part of the mix post All-Star break.

Bill Koch @billkoch25 · 49m Alex Cora is next up on Zoom. #RedSox
Cora said he felt like Workman's outing on Tuesday was 'his best one.'
'I think it was more about mechanics than anything else.'
'He'll find a way. He's going to fight regardless of the stuff that he has.' #RedSox
Cora said Verdugo is seeing a lot of off-speed pitches and has been out front at bit. He's rolling over on some balls instead of staying back and getting them in the air.
Cora said Verdugo's double to left on Tuesday was 'a beautiful swing.' #RedSox
Cora on Rodriguez -- 'This guy was at home last year at this time. He didn't know what was going to happen.' #RedSox

Bill Koch @billkoch25 · 49m Cora on his rotation -- 'They've been posting every five days. They haven't missed a start -- just Eduardo. He missed his first one.'
'The training staff has been doing an outstanding job.' #RedSox
Cora said Santana (left quadriceps) 'feels okay' and Gonzalez (right hamstring) is 'feeling better.'
Both are receiving treatment. One could be placed on the IL prior to today's game. Plawecki (left hamstring) could be activated.
Cora said Santana would be more likely to go on the IL than Gonzalez. They see him as a player who relies more on his legs/speed than Gonzalez. #RedSox

Pete Abraham @peteabe · 47m Sox had a 3.5-game lead on the Rays before they left for the West Coast.
It's 3.5 games now after the Rays won Game 1 of the DH vs. the Indians.
Danny Santana just did a little agility work on the field here in Anaheim with the Sox conditioning/medical staff so that decision could be made soon.
Now the Sox are working Kevin Plawecki out, making sure he can pop up and make throws to all the bases

Pete Abraham @peteabe · 9m No roster move for Sox, which suggests they don't think Gonzalez and Santana need the IL.
So bench today will be Gonzalez, Santana and Wong. Assuming they stay away from Gonzalez and Santana, it's just Wong.
He also has played 2B + 3B in the minors and OF and 1B in college

Very odd game as I had it muted and was in a zoom meeting tied at 2 in the 5th total of 12 hits for both teams and I counted 9 of those to be little bloop flares not much hard contact
teams of interest in the AL East today The Rays just swept the Tribe in a double dip
Jays are in Baltimore later tonight

Bill Koch @billkoch25 · 1m
Lots of nickels and dimes against Eduardo Rodriguez early, but those two homers were silver dollars. Both pitches were poorly located, and they were crushed. #RedSox

arroyo was hosed the replay review is a god damn joke
Pete Abraham @peteabe · 8m Shortstop never touched second base on the replay.
Yikes. What is the point of replay if that's an out?
