  1. Another series win, going for the sweep tomorrow. Not getting ahead of myself, but this team could be fun if they get going in the heart of the season. Haven’t lost a series since May 29. The Yanks seem uncatchable now, but there’s still a ton of baseball left to play. Basically a whole month until the All-Star Break. The run before the ASG will be quite the test. @ Cle @ Tor @ Cubs vs Rays vs Yanks (4) @ Rays (4) @ Yanks Would be nice to get Nate and Sale(!) back. Sounds like Nate’s injury is taking longer to recover from than initially predicted. He probably won’t be activated from the IL until July 4 (or later). Things seem promising for Sale — who struck out Wander Franco in his rehab inning yesterday. He very well could return *before* the All-Star Break. Oh, and Millar predicted Story’s HR tonight: http://www.espn.com/video/clip/_/id/34128161
  2. Would be nice to have some sort of statcast on college… for entertainment purposes only. That was some bullshit.
  3. Build that fucking Dallas-Houston bullet train, stat!
  4. Canada & Mexico cities were already determined. Today finalizes just the US cities.
  5. Still don’t think both NRG and AT&T get to host, but I’d be happy to be wrong. It’s announced on FS1, correct?
  6. Sox are 11-2 in June. Great stopgap start by Winckowski(!) — 0 ER, 5 IP. Raffy now has a homer in each of the last four games. Another series W. Don’t let this team get hot. Don’t.
  7. Yes, please. The fact that the Yanks have still only lost 16 games while playing in the hardest division in baseball is all the more impressive. Fuck those guys, but impressive nonetheless.
  8. 8-2 in the last 10, won all three west coast series. I’ll take it. Oakland visits on Tuesday. Keep the party going. Even with Nate on the IL and Sale slowly working his way back, I somehow feel halfway decent about the pitching so far. A legitimate closet would be nice, but maybe saving that for the trade deadline…
  9. 14L for the Angels… I guess the Nickleback didn’t work.
  10. 7W in a row… and 14L (franchise record) for the Halos… damn.
  11. Another W… and this time, in extras (which hasn’t been kind to the Sox this year). More notably, it was the first game this season (after going 0-18) when trailing after 6 innings. Comeback wins are a cornerstone of great Sox teams over the years (or any good team for that matter). Would like to see some more of those. Nate on the hill tomorrow. Trout is possibly injured as well. (Almost feel bad for the Angels now… but let’s keep the party going regardless.)
  12. And yet they still lose again…
  13. Damn… kind of a surprising move, last 12 games notwithstanding.
  14. The Michael Wacha deal might end up being pretty good.
  15. At .500… fucking finally
  16. Longest remaining road trip of the year starts tonight… Oakland —> Anaheim —> Seattle. Maybe they only suck vs the Orioles? One can hope.
  17. Ok, that’s a pretty fucking good story. That venue seems awesome.
  18. Love hearing those little drops. Sporting events on Fox often have it as well, but it’s sometimes just barely there… almost subliminal-like. This article did a good job explaining it: https://www.burlingtonfreepress.com/story/entertainment/2021/10/28/vermont-band-phish-songs-world-series-2021-outro-music-commercial-breaks/8581419002/ Also, I miss Katy Tur. I actually didn’t realize she left MSNBC, but good for her. Her Phish drops were a work of art. Really liking the sound of the band during this spring tour. A shame they didn’t play any Texas dates this time around, but it’s hot as balls outside. (Friends and I are hitting up Dick’s for the Labor Day weekend run. Should be fun.)
  19. The next seven games at home are very winnable. Would be nice to be on the good side of .500 before the long West Coast road trip.
  20. I guess the bats took a night off Wednesday, but the rest of this series has been fun. Even Bobby Dalbec got a hit with runners on tonight! Don’t let this team get hot. Just don’t. FIVE(!) at home vs the Orioles (over four days) starting tomorrow…
