Kutter Crawford threw a career-high seven innings and Connor Wong went 3-for-4 with two doubles as the Boston Red Sox eased past the San Francisco Giants 6-2 on Wednesday.

Mr. Crawford has his way with the Giants as the Sox win the series. Gre
All good things come to an end, or so I’m told, so it wasn’t particularly surprising when the Giants, in their bullpen game, scored the first runs on a Wednesday against the Sox in three weeks on a third-inning home run against Co-Cy Young favorite (alongside Tanner Houck) by something named Tom Murphy:
WAKE UP, HONEY
TOM MURPHY JUST HIT HIS FIRST HOME...
The Boston Red Sox placed left fielder Masataka Yoshida on the 10-day injured list on Wednesday due to a left thumb strain. The move is retroactive to Monday.
Red Sox pitching prospect Ryan Zeferjahn put the finishing touches on a stellar month of April for Double-A Portland on Tuesday night. Zeferjahn was the second reliever used by Sea Dogs manager Chad Epperson in Tuesday’s series opener against the Reading Fightin Phils at Hadlock Field.

Generation K(utter)
Cooper Criswell and the bullpen set the bar high for Kutter Crawford with the shutout last night. After a rough for 2024 start last week Crawford is looking to bounce back against an offense that hasn’t had a 30 home run hitter since 2007.
Masataka Yoshida hit the IL today.

A flurry of depth transactions continues.
I have to admit, I didn’t really see this one coming. The Red Sox completed a trade today to bolster their infield depth, picking up Zack Short from the Mets for cash. Short is out of options, so he’ll have to be on the 26-man roster. Essentially, then, it looks like he’s a like-for-like replacement for Pablo Reyes. But he doesn’t hit at all and isn’t known to be a spectacular defender, so this move...
Veteran first baseman Dominic Smith is moving to a new AL East address after opting out of his minor league contract with the Tampa Bay Rays.
The Boston Red Sox enter today riding a three-game winning streak having won two against the Chicago Cubs to end their series and then last night they picked up a 4-0 win over the San Francisco Giants to start their three-game series behind five shutout innings from Cooper Criswell and three-hit games from Jarren Duran and Wilyer Abreu.

With the first “full month” of baseball done and dusted, what have we learned about this Red Sox team?
Yeah yeah, I’ll get it over with to not flood the comments with it:
Today is May 1st, which means it’s time for a little reflection! The start to the season for the Boston Red Sox has been filled with more twists and turns than The Big Dig. Dramatic wins, frustrating losses—both on the field and on the roster—and more. What are some...

And is Blaze Jordan, who’s had a ten-game hit streak, ready for his next steps?
Happy Wednesday! If you like runs — which, ... why wouldn’t you? you’re baseball fans — Tuesday night’s games were for you. Every game had at least a dozen runs scored between teams.
RIP the first leg of Garrett Cooper’s Red Sox tenure (April 30-April 30). In the meantime, a pair of first basemen in the upper minors are suddenly making us go...

State Troopers!
Happy Wednesday.
It’s the anniversary of one of the craziest things ever to happen in the history of the Boston Red Sox: Doug Mirabelli’s Police Escort.
May 1, 2006 Doug Mirabelli gets a police escort to @fenwaypark to catch Tim Wakefield vs the Yankees after the #RedSox reacquire him from the Padres. His plane landed in Boston at 6:48 pm and he changed in the car. #WBZ camera was there!...

A short-term issue last week illustrated how there’s also a much more complicated roster problem lurking in the long-term.
The Red Sox have a very expensive roster construction problem involving Masataka Yoshida and Rafael Devers. Even on this 2024 squad, which has enormous holes around the infield and in the lineup, it’s already proving mildly problematic.
But this is only the beginning. As time passes and the team moves towards...

All in a day’s work
If you were a part of the majority of Boston sports fans tuned into the Bruins tonight, don’t worry, you didn’t miss a ton. Cooper Criswell turned in a five-inning shutout performance, the offense scored a few early runs, and the bullpen held onto the lead. I could leave it at that, but that’s not the level of effort that gets me the big (read: modest) bucks.
What stood out to me tonight was the offensive...
Cooper Criswell pitched five strong innings and Jarren Duran and Wilyer Abreu each collected three hits as the Boston Red Sox beat the visiting San Francisco Giants 4-0 on Tuesday in the opener of a three-game series.
The Boston Red Sox have moved to add pitching depth, which they lack in the upper minors. Under Chaim Bloom, the Red Sox saw their depth tested plenty of times, and they didn’t have the options to withstand injuries.

Sometimes bad and sometimes extra good
TK-421 why aren’t you at your post? I mean...Vaughn Grissom why aren’t you in the lineup at second base? As of this writing the move hasn’t been made yet to get him into the Red Sox starting nine.
Edit: he has the flu
Vaughn Grissom has the flu, delaying his debut.

The Red Sox have promoted relief prospect Caleb Bolden from High-A Greenville to Double-A Portland, according to the club’s MiLB.com transactions log. Bolden has enjoyed a strong start to the 2024 season with Greenville.
The Boston Red Sox minor league affiliates last week combined to go 10-14 and combined to be outscored 112-100. The Triple-A affiliate the Worcester Red Sox went 2-4 and both teams scored 30 runs between the six games.

Plus, Theo speaks.
We haven’t heard much from Theo Epstein since he assumed an ownership stake in FSG (which, if you paid attention to the comments from Sam Kennedy and Theo himself at the time, isn’t that surprising). But Theo recently made a podcast appearance and said a little more about his role vis-a-vis the Red Sox. In short, he’s a sounding board for “Bres.” (Alex Speier, Boston Globe)

Pablo Reyes was DFA’d by the Red Sox. Making this the perfect time to celebrate his. . . pitching.
Welcome back to another edition of The Anatomy of An Inning. My name is Jacob Roy, and I pretend to know pitching better than the pitchers themselves. If you’re new here or need a reminder of what this is all about, I take an inning from the previous week or so and break it down, one pitch at a time. Each pitch should have a purpose, I’m looking...
