A week ago, it looked like Drew Pomeranz was in line to miss the start of the season. A few hours ago, it looked like he might not get out of the first inning. Now he says he’s doing well. So... progress? Must be.
The tweets were angry that day
Here’s Pomeranz’s start as recorded by Twitter:
I feel like I always end up defending crappy Red Sox but I might go with the flow when it comes to Drew Pomeranz.

John Farrell said he hoped to get 60-65 pitches from Drew Pomeranz. Wound up with 49 (4 IP 5 H 3 R 3 ER 2 BB 3 K). Last 2 IP much better.

Pomeranz only sucked a little today. Which is actually fine for a fifth starter. Well done!

So yeah. Progress, I guess.
Bryce Brentz bombs
Aw heck, let’s stick to tweets for this one:
Bryce Brentz with an opposite-field home run off a good LH starter in JA Happ -- the kind of thing 29 other teams should notice.
