7/23 @ Baltimore

[Youk Of The Nation]

Rick Porcello vs. Kevin Gausman

 

 

The Red Sox RBI leader is JD Martinez with 81. The Orioles RBI leader is Adam Jones with 37. Light 'em up, boys.

[Spudboy]

An attack by Marcus would be nice to see.

 

That left field wall beckons.

I just want to see a good start from Porcello. Oh, and a game. My NOAA map for the DC area, including Baltimore, looks pretty stormy. Looks like we have entered the monsoon season in a region that tends to be dry in July. Plenty of rain last weekend. Me, I like rain a lot because I lived in Tabuk for 4.5 years. I also like trees. But I would like to see these games played. Edited July 23, 2018 by Maxbialystock

I think this game just might be playable. The clouds and rain today so far just come and go.

[d-money]

They should have started this game earlier just in case the rain comes.

The game should be played right now.

This game likely will be played but idk about the next two. Hope the rain goes away.

[fxkatt]

No Machado certainly helps. I think this game will have more than one interruption. So, let's get out of the gate quickly and get 5 innings in.

 

We can't afford to waste a start by one of our very few healthy starters.. get the damn game in.

[d-money]

Is it raining or what? Why didn’t they play this game earlier geez. I don’t see much rain on the weather radar. Edited July 23, 2018 by d-money

Looks like 7:30, 10, and 11 t-storms very possible

[d-money]

Well the skankees could gain some ground with a washout series

[vegasbob]

First innings are starting slowly for Betts, Beni, JDM since the A-S break.

[vegasbob]

Red Sox are the winningest team in baseball with 70. Orioles have lost 72 already. That's hard to do when virtually all teams should win 60 games. O's might not get 50 with Machado gone

[vegasbob]

Nice HR blow by Moreland , after the O's runner pulled a mistake wandering off first without a clue and Leon holding the ball ready to fire.

[d-money]

Should smack this pitcher around. Gausman

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

Unless my memory is completely shot, it seems Mancini always tends to do well offensively against the SOX. Edited July 24, 2018 by SPLENDIDSPLINTER

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

And defensively.

[vegasbob]

Mookie's favorite spot for a blast into the outfield ? The CF'er's glove about 410' from home plate. He would have 30 HR's with several balls just pulled another 30' or so to left.

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

Betts is hitting the ball to the wrong part of the field.

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

I don't know if there is a stat for hitting the ball on the screws the most times at bat, but if there is, Betts, I believe, would also be #1 in that.

[d-money]

Throw strikes! This team sucks

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

I'm thinking the O's have had almost as many rainouts as wins so far this year. OK, I'm exaggerating.

[vegasbob]

More rain, just get 5 innings at 1-0 and call it a night.

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

Another class act has announced his retirement from baseball about a week ago. Chase Utley. Because getting voted into the HOF is such a stat driven endeavor, Utley will probably not make it. However, based on intangibles, I would vote him in. He exemplified what a winning ballplayer was all about.

[FredLynn]

4-1 Rays over the Yankees and Severino. Go Rays......wait....I hate them too.

[d-money]

Hope they can get at least 5 innings.

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

4-1 Rays over the Yankees and Severino. Go Rays......wait....I hate them too.

 

I actually hate their ball field more than I hate them. However, if the season ended today, Kevin Cash would get my vote for manager of the year in the AL. I remember Cash being a well-liked player when he played for the SOX.

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

4-1 Rays over the Yankees and Severino. Go Rays......wait....I hate them too.

 

But, I'm sure, the RAYS are the lesser of the two hates.

[FredLynn]

Someone here has the tag line that if the Yankees went 0-162 it still wouldn't be enough. I hold that has gospel.
