June 14: HOU (Manaoh) @ BOS (Eovaldi)

[moonslav59]

Nate has to be the stopper, here. He was actually doing pretty well before his last start, so maybe he can break the funk our rotation has been in.

 

Let's hope everyone is healthy and in the line-up.

 

It's way too early to call any game a "must win" game, but the way this team is listing towards a very bad direction, this game seems more important than most.

Ummm Moon

 

You put Houston lol. It’s the Jays.

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

Mornin', Moon.

 

We're actually playing Toronto, but the similarity of the Jays' and Astros' line-ups could explain the confusion.

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

Ummm Moon

It appears Tyler and I are masters of synchronized posting.

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

BTW, because of the superstitious nature of the GT, if the SOX win today, should we continue to play Houston?

It's up to whoever made the initial blunder, I believe.

While true, failure to repeat the blunder followed by an immediate loss shall result in endless needling and goading. But no vexing…

Lol!!!! Wow same exact minute. Weird

 

But yes, both teams have laid a beating on us pretty severely so I can understand the mix up haha.

Maybe this can be like the Max Mojo date thing.

 

Sorry, guys.

 

Is there anyway to change a thread title?

[iortiz]

Couldn't catch last 2 games. Glad I didn't lol

 

We win todays fellas.

[TylerD]

Sorry, guys.

Meh, we know what it is. If it works, every game will be Houston going forward lmao. Oh boy. This could get confusing hahaahahah

[a700hitter]

Will they get weathered out tonight?

[Maxbialystock]

Gotta have faith in Moonslav.

 

Plus today is the US Army's birthday (June 14, 1775). What few people know is that the lion's share of that fledgling Continental Army was in Massachusetts.

 

So, me, I'm thinking that's plenty of mojo to take care of these guys from Canada, who remained British during our Revolution.

[redsoxrules]

Here's an idea, don't give up any runs in the first inning

[Thunder]

Been raining all day here but looks like it will clear up just in time for first pitch.

[TylerD]

Here's an idea, don't give up any runs in the first inning

 

Hahaha, don't be silly.... That is what the Sox are known for this year..... It would be wrong to come out and play a good first couple of innings.

 

Just insane to think that, come on now.

[Nick]

All extra innings start with runner on second and no outs. Sox also starts the home games behind at least 0-2 and with one out when they come to bat.

Lol it's like a written rule I swear.

 

Well the Jays have yet to take a series from us... In our two game series, we tied.... Last series we won, and this series I hope to hell we split with them. Jays look like a power house that has caught their stride, so a split here I am totally ok with and then we have a couple not so bad series coming up against the Braves and Royals.

[Tedballgame]

i can't believe the Sox let Ryan Weber go.

[Tedballgame]

Benintendi goes on IL today just ahead of Red Sox visit to KC this coming weekend.

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

Here's an idea, don't give up any runs in the first inning

 

There's an idea I can get behind 100%. As long as the SOX don't 'get behind.'

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

i can't believe the Sox let Ryan Weber go.

 

Well, he and half the infield did save the SOX from having to use Andriese yesterday.

That being said, I just hope the SOX won't require Arroyo on the mound again tonight.

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

John Henry was denied permission to move the wall and fences back for tonight's game by the city of Boston.

[TylerD]

Hernandez showing off his flexibility lol

 

Let’s go boys.

[moonslav59]

i can't believe the Sox let Ryan Weber go.

 

LOL.

 

It is strange that they felt highly enough about him to call him up over anyone else, and now he's the lowest man on the totem pole.

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

Well, that was different.

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

Btw, very fine play by Devers.

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

That wasn't different.

[moonslav59]

Wow! A first inning without even a hit or BB!
