Some context to the insanity of Wheeler throwing 16 pitches through 3 innings: There was only one other instance since 2008 of a starting pitcher getting through 3 innings in fewer than 20 pitches. Luke Hochevar threw 3 innings in 19 pitches on 6/12/2009. Hochevar finished with an 80-pitch CG.

Interim Manager Update #Phillies under Donnie Baseball: 11-3 (.786) #RedSox under Chad Tracy: 7-7 (.500)

This #RedSox offense needs a complete overhaul.

Through 3 innings, Zack Wheeler has thrown 16 pitches. The #RedSox are really making him work. 😉 Remember when Red Sox teams used to grind out at-bats? Not so much anymore...

Kyle Schwarber is on pace to hit 66 HRs. #RedSox #Phillies

Starting Payton Pritchard would help the Celtics produce more paint touches. They were in the bottom 4 at that in the playoffs. As they work to become more impactful at the rim, this isn’t a cure-all, but it’s an in-house solution that would help with becoming more dynamic & efficient offensively.

Trevor Story has 52 strikeouts in 37 games (through 5/9/26). His 162-game pace would amount to 228 strikeouts. #RedSox

#RedSox pitching with Chad Tracy: 3.03 ERA Red Sox pitching with Alex Cora: 4.44 ERA

The #RedSox were rained out today, but Baltimore lost, so Boston is no longer in last place in the AL East. Little miracles. 😉

@rsnstats.com Is there a breakdown somewhere of Weissert’s stats this year and over his career showing how he performs when starting an inning versus entering with runners already on base?

The Sox went 48-33 at Fenway last season. They are currently 6-11.

This is the best article I’ve read on the Jaylen Brown situation and what it means for the #Celtics. www.bostonglobe.com/2026/05/08/s... Via @chadfinn.bsky.social

Here's hoping Slaten Is the move. Tommy Kahnle is available, too. He has a 2.38 ERA in 10 appearances with Worcester. #RedSox

Greg Weissert has allowed 7 of 14 inherited runners to score this season (50%) in 17 appearances. #RedSox

Weissert. #RedSox

#RedSox record - 2026: 2-7 - 1st 9 games 14-14 - Last 28 games 16-21 - Record through 5/6/26

The #RedSox are 16-21, but they’re only 1.5 games back in the wild card standings. 😂

Tonight's #RedSox win at #Tigers was just the 2nd game in club history with 15+ strikeouts, 7+ walks, but 4 or fewer hits. Also September 5, 1905 in a win vs Philadelphia #Athletics. (17 SO, 7 B, 4 H). Just 5th such win in #MLB history, first since #Cubs at #Giants on May 27, 2000.

@redsoxstats.bsky.social Is there anything that can be taken away from Garrett Whitlock’s recent subpar outings? Or is it just bad luck?

Good stuff from Bello. 👏

The #RedSox have just 3 players with an OPS over .700: .856 Contreras .832 Abreu .786 Yoshida The average OPS in the American League is .715. So, 10 out of 13 Red Sox players have an OPS below the AL average. 😳

With the Celtics’ unexpected first round exit, I wonder if a roster shakeup—a trade of Jaylen Brown + draft picks for Giannis Antetokounmpo—could be on the table for Boston and Milwaukee in the offseason… #Celtics

The #RedSox are last in the American League in home runs with 23. The Yankees lead the AL with 56. Both teams have played 34 games.

Is this ANOTHER injury for the starting rotation? Ugh. #RedSox

@chadfinn.bsky.social Chad, how much should the Celtics tweak their roster this offseason to set themselves up for a deep playoff run next year?

Congratulations Sixers. I give the Sixers a ton of respect for winning the series after being down 3-1. Extremely difficult to pull off. #Celtics

#RedSox Interim Manager Chad Tracy’s father, Jim, led the Rockies to the 2009 playoffs after taking over midseason—one of seven in-season managerial changes in 30 years that resulted in a postseason berth. www.mlb.com/news/in-seas...

Caleb Durbin Last 7 games: .292/.370/.458/.829 11.1% K rate 11.1% BB rate For the season, Durbin leads all American League third basemen in Defensive Runs Saved with 5. He ranks second in MLB. #RedSox

Jake Bennett is 1st to earn a win in his #MLB debut with #RedSox since Connelly Early lat September 9, 2025 at #Athletics. Is 42nd such player for BOS in the Live Ball Era (since 1920).

Greg Weissert has allowed 6 of 11 inherited runners to score (54.5%) in 2026. #RedSox

Through their first 30 games in 2026, the #RedSox have been shutout three times. For the entire 2025 season, the Red Sox were shutout four times.

Dominant outing from Ranger.

6 of the 11 saves leaders appeared in at least 1 game for the #RedSox (Jansen, Smith, Kimbrel, Wagner, Eckersley, Chapman).

Red Sox 1-0 in the new era, 134 to go, lol… good game today, much needed. Early another solid start and got us into the 7th today.

But... In what specific ways had "some of the best coaches in the world" been helping Trevor Story? Story's line: .198/.235/.297/.533 Defense: -2 OAA 0 Defensive Runs Saved (DRS) - Story ranks 44th among MLB shortstops #RedSox

Hat tip to Alex Cora for 2018, 2021, and 2025. #RedSox

Seems funny to say it on a day they scored 17 runs, but Crochet going 6 shutout innings was the most important thing.

Put Bello in AAA to figure things out. Tolle, Bennett, or Ed Rivera could take his spot in the rotation. Bello needs some tough love. What he’s giving the #RedSox is unacceptable.

From @BOSSportsGordo on X: "Wilyer Abreu has the highest OPS on the Red Sox at .794. The Red Sox are the only team in baseball without a player with an .800 OPS." #RedSox 😳

#RedSox rack up 17 strikeouts against Yankees—but still come up short.

Wilyer Abreu - last 50 AB (13 games): .180/.268/.180/.448 #RedSox

Will Brayan Bello put it together during the Yankee series? Bello has a record of 5-4 with a 2.35 ERA versus the Yankees in his career. Highlights: 6 quality starts/11 total starts 65 IP 53 SO 23 BB 3 HR The #RedSox have a 7-4 record in the 11 games Bello has started against the Yankees.

The #RedSox have 4 starters hitting under the Mendoza line: .196 Story .164 Duran .162 Durbin .182 Mayer

Strikeouts by a relief pitcher: 1. Hoyt Wilhelm 1,363 (1,872.1 IP) * 2. Goose Gossage 1,340 (1,556.2 IP) * 3. Aroldis Chapman 1,339 (829 IP) * Hall of Famer

CLUTCH CEDDANNE.

#RedSox - K rates over 25% (though 4/19/26): 33.3% Story 30.4% Narvaez 28.6% Contreras 28.2% Duran 26.7% Monasterio 26.1% Anthony

#RedSox were down today 5-1 after 5 innings, not 50-1. But for a team with no comeback, it may well have been a huge margin. The largest deficit BOS has overcome to win a game this year is ONE run. It happened one time, on April 15 at #Twins (BOS trailed 1-0 after the 1st, won 9-5).

The #Celtics held Philly to 18 points in Q1.
