Long impressive so far thru three innings, 1 run and 3 k's. Maybe his stuff is back cause when he is on, he has a deadly two pitch combination: mid-to high-90's fastball and a hard 12-6 curve.

Nice to see the Sox have Floyd on the same schedule as Danks which is very smart, because if you were a betting man you'd say that if the Sox were going to ever need Floyd up as a starter it would be to replace Danks (with them figuring Danks needs more seasoning).

 

I agree on Long. He was really tired last season and it showed and hopefully the full off-season has him fresh because with his stuff there is no reason he shouldn't succeed. Plus I like that the Sox are stretching him out as a starter (even though he projects as a reliever) because it will force him to actually develop some other pitchers which will help him a lot once he shifts over to the pen (where he'd only rely on his two pitches and make little development outside of that).

Josh Fields also got his first hit of the season, in the 10th inning.

I really like this approach by the organization, we all know Longs future is in the BP, i wouldn't mind seeing them do this with more good BP arms, maybe even Logan.

 

also glad to see Josh go 2-5 with a HR, and Floyd pitch well

The game ended up 6-4. Day came on in the ninth to close and ended up loading up the bases on two hits and a walk with no outs. He then walked a run in. Fortunately, the bleeding stopped there and the next three batters went down in order. Scared me for a few minutes there.

 

The Barons played commanding ball all day long. Collaro seems to really be on fire this year.
