  1. Ok, I take back everything.
  2. That didn’t take long.
  3. Kinsler is activated from the DL... and Devers was put back on the 10-day DL (hamstring strain, retroactive to yesterday). Kinda disappointing, although both Nunez and Holt are an upgrade at 3B defensively.
  4. Didn't realize the PawSox WooSox is seriously going to be a thing now. For selfish reasons (I have family in RI that I visit in the summer), I don't like it. Pawtucket Red Sox Reach Tentative Deal To Move To Worcester
  5. That is actually a cool story, bro. Fucking Pomeranz shit the bed tonight, but oh well... a split series in Philly isn't the end of the world. Another off day tomorrow, then back to Fenway for 3 vs the Rays, followed by 4 vs the Indians. More importantly, the last road trip of the year over a week is over, and the Sox are still 10 games ahead of the Yanks.
  6. When Sandy Leon and Brock Holt(!) win you games almost single-handedly, it’s shaping out to be a favorable season.
  7. Ryan Brasier and his 1.13 ERA have had quite the journey. Definitely worth the read. Ryan Brasier’s journey from failed Fenway tryout 11 years ago to reliable bullpen option

    Jesus... what the fuck is wrong with the Astros? (Besides injuries)

    * He has an 0.69 ERA in his last 10 starts, striking out 109 in 65 innings. * He has thrown 28 consecutive scoreless innings. * He has not allowed a HR in 68 IP dating back to June 1. * Opponents are 33-225 (.147) against him since June 8.
  10. Chris Sale is still good.
  11. Can’t say I’m surprised. Citeh is quite good, though.
  12. Dammit, Laca. That should’ve been in.
  13. I know the O’s are essentially a AAAA team at this point, but it’s always nice to win both games of a doubleheader. And just to be this guy, here are Kimbrel’s last six appearances: 6.1 IP, 6 ER, 7 H, 5 BB, 2 HR, 8 K He needs to get his shit together. ASAP.

    It's ridiculous. I'm biased, but I'd go with Mookie as well. His defense definitely gives him a nod over JDM. But part of me really wants to see Jose Ramirez keep cruising, largely in hopes of him leading the league in HR & SB... a feat that hasn't been accomplished in 86(!) years.
  15. Can’t win ‘em all... but Mookie hit for the cycle.

    Well, Jerry Remy's cancer returned, so he won't annoy for much longer... [sorry] Although Eck is a lot of fun in the booth, so I suppose he'll get more work soon. Funny how the Sox used to have Orsillo in the booth, then NESN drove him off, and now he's a prime reason the Padres have such a good commentary team.

    Glad to see he still sucks.
  18. Whew! 80 wins. This team is good.
  19. Kimbrel is wild as fuck lately. He ain’t what he used to be. He’s gonna give me an ulcer come October.
  20. JD Martinez is quite good.
  21. While sweeping the MFYs (in a FOUR-GAME SERIES) is always fun, I hope the team didn't celebrate too much... it's certainly a highlight of the season so far, but there's still a lot of games to be played. These three games in Toronto is a "trap" series if there's ever been one. Pomeranz not shitting the bed tonight will help. (I still think he's destined for the bullpen - they are short lefties there - but obviously you still want him to pitch well enough in the meantime.) Might as well show some fun STATS. Here's where the Sox rank as a team in MLB: Runs - 1st Hits - 1st AVG - 1st OPS - 1st HR - 6th (Yanks are 1st, btw) 2B - 1st OBP - 2nd Total Bases - 1st SB - 2nd(!) SB % - 2nd ERA - 2nd Quality Starts - 2nd K - 3rd BAA - 3rd Opponent OPS - 2nd Opponent Total Bases - 4th Save % - 4th Blown saves - 5th They are a good team. But they still gotta keep it up over the next 2+ months...

    The Astros-Dodgers game wouldn’t have got those numbers.
