Cutter this, changeup that. I think the path for Payton Tolle taking his next step might be something that nobody is talking about
For @OverTheMonster ⬇️
How can Patyon Tolle hit his ceiling? Here's
@Jake3Roy on the importance of throwing strikes and one tweak Tolle can make to reach his potential.

Has there ever been a big leaguer for big leaguer trade where both players played exactly 1 game for their new team in the season of the trade?
Connelly Early is making his Nationals debut today.
He was acquired from Boston back on July 26th for Curtis Mead, who has appeared in just one game for the Red Sox.

Is there a window to get all 9 innings in @MattGross87? With the Phillies going bullpen game anyway, they probably don’t care too much about a mid game delay

Entering the last game of the season, the Red Sox outfield is tied for the most DRS by an outfield in the last 10 years. OAA, however, stalled out at 22, well behind the Rays and Cubs outfields.
The Red Sox outfield has the 11th-most defensive runs saved and 17th-most outs above average in a single season. They've done it in about half the innings of everyone else.

Tying myself to the pesky pole until I’m refunded the $7.07 for 1/14th of the September SRO pass
Red Sox say:
Tickets purchased directly from the Red Sox will be automatically refunded back to the original payment. The ticket will hold no cash value. Refunds will be completed within 7 days.

Ranger Suarez has gone away from his changeup recently. I think tonight would be a good night to try to find the feel for it heading into the playoffs. More on that below
The Red Sox dropped serious coin on Ranger Suarez in the offseason, but after an up-and-down second half, can he be counted on in the postseason?

I just told Dustin Pedroia why Dustin Pedroia should be in the hall of fame for @BBisntBoring
9 year old Jake would be losing his mind right now. 28 year old Jake is still trying to get his heart rate down from public speaking

The result of this:
Ranger Suarez's changeup has career-low chase and swinging strike rates. From March through August, he threw the pitch 16.5% of the time against RHH.
Over his last three starts, he's thrown 15 changeups (8%). The 2-strike usage is down from 20% to 7%.
I love writing, but the ratio at which I click from tab to tab, looking into different stats and potential talking points to actually writing words makes me feel like I need medication
