It's like, if you squint, you can see 4 starters in the lineup.

C. Monty back. Joey Gallo - 2-17, 9 K, 0 BB. Burke in a B game today. Looking forward to the Clevenger TJS announcement after a 3-pitch outing today. Nice to not see Amaya in the lineup for a couple of days, now.

Dan Hayes was on the SoxMachine podcast last week. What he seemed to imply was that Ishbia used the Twins to push Jerry towards a meeting of the minds.

The sucky thing about Daylight Savings Time (of the many) is that now Sox spring training games start an hour later.

Players aren't "disabled". They're injured. Scholtens has accrued a year's service time on the 60-day IL all last year.

Things can go sideways real fast, but this was a fun one to dream on. Vargas and Sosa becoming regular contributors would be a huge step for the whole team.

Love to see the 2-fer by Vargs, and the tight outings by Smith and Taylor.

At one point, I would have thought Jon Cannon was the OD starter. Now I wonder if Thorpe and Cannon to AAA eventually battle for a rotation spot.

There's no regular IL right now because there's no 26-man rosters in effect. And the 10-day (15-day?) doesn't open any spot on the 40-man.

Welcome to the bigs, Shane Smith

I wonder what the thought process was behind throwing Davis Martin in the B game, and Shane Smith against the Dodgers.

I'd like to see a lot more Vargas at 1B and Vaughn at DH.

A team can only use the 60-day IL when they need to add a player. They can't just put a guy on the 60-day and be at 39 players.

No, he's on the 40-man. If he's not on the 26-man, they're burning an option.
