How will we make KC look really good today... Let's start by keeping bats in the lineup who are hitting around what they weigh, and let's go ahead and put Sandy behind the plate and have him call some great location to pad the stats of Soler. Seems like a pretty good equation for another KC win.

[TylerD]

Lets lose again and instead of saying we suck we can say "Lets give the other team credit" It's definitely not us with our outstanding 1-9 record in our last 10. It's the other team that is "oh so damn good"

Again. If we lose, tomorrow is another day right? The sun will rise in the East and bring with it all sorts of new opportunities.

Maybe if we lose by five or six runs today, it will inspire us to only lose by four tomorrow. You have to think BIG PICTURE.

Strictly BIG PICTURE thoughts.

Valid point! Also we play another team that is struggling tomorrow, so a weak team will get a win tomorrow regardless.... That's a plus? I guess.... lol.

I’m off to see Queen at Madison Square Garden. At least I will get to see “hits” tonight....

Will we ever see Bronco again? (Well, maybe not) Edited August 7, 2019 by bosoxmal

[TylerD]

I’m eating lasagna. That is all.

[TylerD]

Another awesome start for the rotation

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

The SOX starting staff leads MLB in Least Bang for the Buck.

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

E-rod is a #3 at best. And he's the SOX best starter.

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

Not often one sees both team's CF's batting 9th.

[TylerD]

E-rod is a #3 at best. And he's the SOX best starter.

 

That’s sad

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

Speaking of CF's, back in the 50's when NY had 3 major league teams the CF's were Mays, Mantle and Snyder. Now MLB has Trout.

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

Of the following 4 SOX players, which one do you think will end up with the highest BA? Bogie, Betts, Beni, or JD? I'm going with Beni.

[bosoxmal]

I guess E Rod qualifies as a an OPENER also. I'd love to see someone else start the 4th inning.

[TylerD]

E-Rod might not even go 5 tonight.

[TylerD]

Bases loaded. Good god.

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

Of the following 3 SOX players which one is coachable? Beni, E-rod or JBJ?

Obviously, the answer is Beni.

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

E-Rod might not even go 5 tonight.

 

E-rod's nickname is GUTLESS.

[oldtimer]

E-rod's nickname is GUTLESS.

 

The Nibbler

[TylerD]

E-rod's nickname is GUTLESS.

 

Yup. Can’t believe I thought he was actually getting it going. Should have known better.

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

Another pitcher who demonstrates how misleading the stat W/L is.

[bosoxmal]

If ERod had been in there as ann Opener, he would have been out of the before the bases were loaded! "When will they ever learn?"

Bogaerts. He has the least $$ motivation to do so, but no matter with him.

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

Yup. Can’t believe I thought he was actually getting it going. Should have known better.

 

Don't feel like the Lone Ranger. He had me fooled for a couple of games, also.

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

"Where have all the SOX starters gone? Long time passing."

[TylerD]

This is sad.

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

Maybe Devers needs a couple of days off. No reason not to.
