That's the Wei!

They are making a real life sonic the hedgehog movie and Jim Carrey is the bad guy?? wtf....... Just saw a commercial

 

Anyway back to the Sox.

I didn't want to wear out my Tzu jokes.

Going to the White House could really mess with the mojo this team has right now

Chavis isn't at 2nd either. Put him at 1st and put Pierce and his $5M or whatever on ice. At least Chavis would not be right in the middle of the infield. X has enough of a workload coaching Rafi every day. Now you are going to stick him between Chavis and Rafi!!!!

 

According to the lineup he's playing 2b.

By that logic, saying that JBJ has a single and a line shot today means that he should never miss a game in CF for the next 10 years

 

Glad you see how both guys have made monumental shifts in their value to the winning outcome. Extend both now while they are hot

They don't have to go. I'd like the team more if they didn't. Manny wouldn't have gone. "my grandmother died again."

Oh you.

Well, they're scheduled to go next week while in Baltimore

the trouble with clint's last 5 movies.

I think he was being sarcastic... I hope.

 

the fact that you have to question whether it was sarcasm is challenging. Not sure Thunder has done that class at UCONN yet

[Thunder]

The day Fenway gets rid of the Woo-WOO! will be the worst day of my life

Gran Torino was fantastic!

There is actually some class here about marijuana. Not entirely sure it what capacity, however. They can't grow it, since it is not legal here yet. Safe to say that class filled up instantly

Thank Facebook for that. I have seen such idiotic things posted where you swear it's sarcasm and then the person says "I was being serious" And then things like "Sale's career is done" And you laugh and say good one for the person to respond "I was serious." Sarcasm is a lost art on facebook media these days. Though most of the users on this forum are pretty good with it.

That was a while ago. That was, imho, his last good movie.

Something to do with 'higher' education.

[Thunder]

I genuinely can't remember the last time Devers did not get on base

Tyler D and Thunder check post #15 way back early in this thread and tell me what you think of MLB's new idea.

Hate it.

So how much is he going to have to hit to make up for not knowing what in the world he is doing at 2nd. Who covers for him since he clearly does not have the quickness for the position and X already has his hands full. Moreland's worst plays at 1st are trying to move over into the hole. So now what? Chavis at 2nd is Nunez with even less range if that can be believed.

 

How happy are we going to be about Chavis at 2nd when he turns right into a runner in the middle of a DP and gets wiped out and sent to the IL to become yet another Red Sox player played out of position and sent to his doom. If they want to keep him here I would play him at 1st where play around the base is at least not coming at you from every direction. We give up Pierce....big deal. Its only money in his case.

We need more runs. Colton “Rally” Brewer is warming for the 7th inning. He is not a high leverage guy.

[vegasbob]

We seem to have missed thanking Marcus Walden for 3 innings of 1 hit ball on 31 pitches, followed by Workman getting his inning with only 12 pitches, indicating command and control by both pitchers. Actually a pretty good bullpen game today

[TylerD]

We always talk about the difficulty of West Coast road trips for the Sox. It looks like between Toronto and Boston, the A's are seeing the flip side of all that time and routine change.

 

One of MLB's programs to be implemented in 2021 is that all teams east of the Missippi play all games east of the river, and vice versa fo west coast teams. It's a contribution to reducing MLB's carbon footprint

 

Pff. I'm all for it! Though the Jays didn't seem to struggle much on the West Coast this year, I think that was a Sox special.

Bullpen had a solid game against Oakland a while back as well. Maybe against them this is what we need to do? Though Porcello was also excellent last night.

Can't believe the Brewers lost last year's NLCS due to having Travis Shaw play 2b.
