Have they made any indications of what Garrett Whitlock's role is going to be next year? If you've got Crochet/Buehler/Bello/Houck/Giolito/Kutter and Sandoval in reserve mid-season, kind of points to him being a short man in the bullpen, no? Which is probably the best use of him. But given the likelihood that at least two of three of those starters get hurt at some point, maybe they keep him stretched out to be a starter again?

Wil Myers announced his retirement. He had a good career but never lived up to the hype after his great rookie year.

I'll always remember him for ole'ing that fly ball in game 1 of the 2013 ALDS

High-leverage relief.


Sox talked with Pittsburgh about Jared Jones, Alex Speier reports.
