6/23 BJ'S @ Boston

[jung]

When Holt returns, I'd like to see him completely covered in bubble wrap.

 

They can roll him out to a position with one arm stuck out with a glove on it. He will STILL find his way back to the IL in short order.

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

X-man making a statement why he should have been voted into the ASG.

[Station 13]

Stroman makes tough pitches when he needs to, just a complete opposite of Porcello who pitches is down the middle.

[FredLynn]

These guys are really bad....getting the snot knocked out of them by a truly terrible team. Its embarrassing.

[oldmaninthevegasdesert]

typical punk

[a700hitter]

Screw this jerky midget mediocre hot dog pitcher.

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

I have a serious question regarding JD's contract with the SOX. The opt-out clause in the contract; is that one-sided? IOW, can the SOX FO also invoke the opt-out?

[oldmaninthevegasdesert]

People,announcers, need to stop making excuses for this sad excuse for this country club club house...total effin BS

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

I believe the Nunez experiment has run its course. Time to move on.

[FredLynn]

Someone should have drilled the first Toronto batter up.

[jung]

Oh my God. Our BP is just hysterical. As soon as this clown comes in its Bang, Smash, Pow.

 

Its time for a cameo shot of DD in the team suite. I am ready for a look at thst dour long face of his "contemplating".

[oldmaninthevegasdesert]

Screw this jerky midget mediocre hot dog pitcher.

 

If I had been hitting against him,I would be looking for nothing other then something I could rip back at him, no fight in the 2019 Red Sox, it is embarrassing

[d-money]

People,announcers, need to stop making excuses for this sad excuse for this country club club house...total effin BS

 

True true. This more of the Red Sox looking like a total joke than the blue jays. The effort from the start was not good.

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

Not fair just picking on NO NO Nunez when the whole line-up looks like an unpolished turd.

Glad you said that. Getting weary of hearing how this is the best hitter in MLB, most dedicated, works all day and night on it. Maybe he's off physically, maybe mentally but he used to rocket every ball all over the field, but this past month hasn't been great.

 

I will guess that the option is a one way deal in his favor.

[d-money]

Our relievers don’t throw strikes .

[jung]

Home plate ump is ready to go home. Turns and wonders why there is anybody left in the stands.

[d-money]

This team has no bite. For the announcers to get all bitchy over stroman saying something is ridiculous. Do something about it on the scoreboard.

[Station 13]

Our relievers don’t throw strikes .

 

Our entire bullpen makes less than half of Arodis Chappy salary.

[oldmaninthevegasdesert]

I have been in Las Vegas and bet enough baseball,to know when the time has come to start fading an overrated team,and the time has arrived with this bunch

[jung]

Even the Jays are ready for the airport.

[oldmaninthevegasdesert]

It is sad when the only good thing going on is the yanks losing 9-0

[TylerD]

Well we look ready for New York. Ugh.

Looked it up on Cots and the 2019 and 2020 opt out options are exclusively JDM's. In 2021 and 2022 it is a mutual option depending on a potential Lisfranc or other right foot injury that leads to extensive IL time. Otherwise, you are paying him $23.75 million in '20 , then $19.375 in '21 &'22. He can reject trades to 3 teams annually.

[oldmaninthevegasdesert]

I already shutoff the tell a vision off, gave it to my grand daughter

[jung]

It will be interesting to see if the Jays have to come with Giles today after having gone yesterday. He has pitched really well this year but has mostly done it with a cranky arm....supposedly all better now. I would be interested to see if he could go back to back and duplicate. We were hopeless against his heat yesterday.

 

Geez here I am doing NESN's job for it now. "STAY TUNED. THIS COULD GET INTERESTING"

I'm not a doctor, but I wouldn't be surprised to find out JD isn't 100%. I think he's playing with a back issue. I also believe it's a chronic situation that will haunt him the rest of his playing days. Obviously, this is just speculation on my part and I definitely hope I'm wrong.

[vegasbob]

Here's the interesting finding on Cot's, unless something has changed recently, Dombrowski's 5 year deal is over in 2019, otherwise known as this year. That could get interesting

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

It would be great if the BJ's left on their flight and left Giles behind in Boston.

Jung, tell us about the newest charity or Remy's book signing. Or what happened when Eck opened his hotel room door once when he was naked.
