He'll be on the bump for Tampa in Thursday's series finale matinee, opposed by Corey Kluber (0-2, 6.48 ERA).īefore that, it'll be Nick Pivetta (0-1, 1.80 ERA) vs. Unfortunately for the Red Sox, they will be catching the Rays' other starter with a 0.00 ERA in Jeffrey Springs, who's allowed three hits and four walks with 19 strikeouts in his 13 innings of work. Rays opponents have scored more than two runs in a game just twice in nine games so far, with Washington losing 10-6 last week and Oakland losing 9-5 on Friday. The Rays are coming off back-to-back 11-0 wins over Oakland, marking the second and third times that Tampa opponents have been shut out this season. Tampa has outscored opponents 75-18 this season, good for a plus-57 run differential that is 32 runs better than the second-best team. At 9-0 thus far, the Rays have dominated every single one of their games thus far. Petersburg, they'll be going up against the undefeated Tampa Bay Rays. That's all well and good, but on Monday night in Tampa, the real test begins. That turnaround certainly boosted spirits on the team and got the record to 5-4 on the young season. But neither player was on the move, which should help Boston remain in the race for that final wild card spot.BOSTON - Coming off a slightly embarrassing series sweep at the hands of the Pittsburgh Pirates, the Red Sox rebounded nicely by sweeping the Tigers over the weekend. The left side of the infield was expected to stay intact through the deadline, but it wasn't clear if Eovaldi or Martinez might get sent out, considering their deals expire at the end of the year. Both players are 22 years old, and both players have played at the high-A level this year. Max Ferguson was the 11th-ranked prospect in the Padres' system, and Rosier was ranked 26th. These two prospects came attached in the Eric Hosmer deal. 328 with a 1.016 in the two levels in 2022. Valdez has had a good season at Double-A and Triple-A this year, hitting. The Red Sox got two prospects from the Astros in exchange for Vazquez, neither of whom was highly ranked in the Houston organization. 646 OPS, and his numbers are even lower this year. He's underwhelming offensively, as a career. The 27-year-old has started 153 games behind the plate in the big leagues for the Blue Jays and White Sox. The Red Sox needed a catcher after trading away Christian Vazquez, and McGuire can fill that spot. The 34-year-old came cheap, as the Red Sox will be sending a player to be named later to Cincinnati to complete the deal. Tommy Pham is most known these days for slapping Joc Pederson during a batting practice altercation - a fight which was based on an old fantasy football dispute. The Padres are also paying a ton of money for the Red Sox to take Hosmer. 727 OPS this season won't turn any heads, but it still makes him one of the better hitters in the Red Sox' lineup. Hosmer's far removed from his All-Star season in 2016, but he's a four-time Gold Glove winner at first base, and he'll provide the Red Sox with some desperately needed defense and stability at the position. In terms of big league upgrades, this one marked the Red Sox as borderline buyers. In fact, the 23-year-old never even reached the Triple-A level until a few weeks ago. But his career hasn't panned out, and he's yet to pitch in the big leagues. The lefty was once a tremendously hyped prospect in the Red Sox' system, after he was drafted with the 12th overall pick in 2016.
