6/23 BJ'S @ Boston

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.

 

Thanks for the info.

6 outs away from the jays shutting out the Sox .

[oldmaninthevegasdesert]

Well, pool time, no need for me to mess up the mojo today, Sox already got that handled...tomorrow gentlemen,enjoy your Sunday

[vegasbob]

Just a guess but thinking Josh Smith will have a tough inning here. Hope not because a miracle could happen, but I'm sticking with the one inning , one reliever mode.

Must be expensive to fill up a pool with water in Nevada.

Hey I got a question based on something they were tossing around in the booth yesterday. I missed the booth opening segment. So it might have been there.

 

Eck was supposed to bring in a baseball today...any ML baseball from what must be quite a few at his home so that they could compare lets say a 1990's baseball with today's rocket ship. As soon as I heard it yesterday I said to myself "yea NESN is going to let this happen....ah-hah". Did I miss it or can we assume NESN shut that right down!

[Oscars]

The Sox in 2019 continue to play like s*** at Fenway.....

[d-money]

I can’t wait to see what cora has to say after this one.

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

Unless something drastically happens I think we're gonna be stuck with the dreaded .500 ball club this season.

[Tedballgame]

Just got home from Chicago and turned on the game. Wow. Another ugly performance. Yesterday's game carries over to today. There needs to be some sort of shake up. The inconsistency of this team is based on a crap bullpen.

[TylerD]

What a horrible series.

A losing record at Fenway, incredible

Well, Cora held a clubhouse meeting, but it was about planning the London trip. I think he was concerned about the language difficulties

I guess MLB decided for health reasons it was better to ban steroid use by the players and, instead, put the steroids in the baseball.

We are STILL doing NOTHING v opposing Starters. Does our team BA even start with a .2 v Starting pitchers? How bout' our team OPS v Starters. That one might be REALLY ugly.

You can put that one on the board. LOL

Mookie's smiling and happy with a two hit day. Says to Tellez at first, I'm going to get paid, I'm going to get paid !

Damn, I really miss pre '76 when most players were on one year contracts. Darn you, Curt Flood.

[vegasbob]

Beni, my favorite popper-upper

[jung]

Vegabob sighs...seeing another beni-pop.

[jung]

Let him hit it for Christ's sake. You are up 6-0

Even Pete Abe thinks Mookie is not giving it all this year. Bad defense, not much stealing bases or sliding hard to break up doubleplays.

[jung]

Beni-pops will end up a new Friendy's offering. Anything for a promo.

JDM, my favorite dribbler. The Celtics could use him

Yesterday, he stole a meaningless base in the 9th inning down by 2 runs. It was blatant stat-padding.

[jung]

Wow just wow.

 

If they just do NOTHING in the 9th, they deserve to be booed off the field...truly...THIS is embarrassing.

[Station 13]

Ass inning. What a performance from JD.

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

Dribblers, pop-up's and solo HR's. The title of the 2019 RED SOX season video.

Just as long as Remy and Eck tout it. And O'Brien's favorite, the K-pop

[a700hitter]

Cora will put his smiley face on the performance in his press conference. It's time to turn over a table or two to get the attention of this sleepwalking group.
