May 29th Orioles & Red Sox

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

Another damn fine job by Pivetta. Definitely has to be the frontrunner for AL Pitcher of the Month.

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

That's pretty big news. Where did you hear this?

 

 

I read that the SOX offered Bogey 220 million for 9 years earlier this season.

I tried finding that on the internet, but all I found was a 4 year deal at 90 million that was offered during spring training. It appears Bogey is looking for something around 30 million per year. Aren't we all.

Using Houck in a 7-1 game. Wow I guess Cora isn’t taking any chances, but who’s going to piggyback Hill tomorrow?

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

Charlie Finley, probably the smartest owner in all of baseball, saw all of this coming after the Curt Flood ruling. He had a large yard sale and said adios.

Good question. I'd like to be able to answer it, but it's beyond my pay grade.

This may be Cora sending a message to Bloom. HELP!

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

Mancini is a fine ballplayer.

[a700hitter]

The Two helpless hitters started off the Home Run parade today. If they are hitting, we will be putting up a lot of runs.

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

Bobby Offense.

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

I guess it was a good idea not firing the hitting coach earlier this season.

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

At this point of the season Devers may have the most impressive offensive numbers in MLB.

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

Any chance of extending the month of May?

If the current hitting upgrades by several players continues through June, Fatse comes off probation.

I'm giving you a continuation through Tuesday until midnight, then it is no longer early. Better be at .500 when I wake up June 1

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

Story has cooled off, but 4 other SOX players have heated up, so that's more than a fair trade-off.

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

Clean up in aisle 9, Mr Barnes.

Mr Barnes not available.

[Jasonbay44]

Yup; he and JBJ always bust it running to 1st.

 

Yup. Shoutout to JBJ too. Definitely don’t have any complaints about effort for those two guys.

[vegasbob]

After we get a couple outs in the 9th, i'll be ready to declare this game over.

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

This game should have been 12-0.

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

Story looks like he's been playing at 2nd base his whole career.

[vegasbob]

11 run lead and Valdez walks the leadoff guy on 4 pitches, nice work Phil. Then hit the next batter

He thought that was the expectation.

[vegasbob]

Well, no O batter can say he really hit it hard off Valdez. Other wise that was weak. Phillips must be real near the 26th spot on the option/DFA list

That must have been Devers. It's been widely reported that the offer to Bogey was only one year added to the three left on his existing contract, for $30 million.

I don’t think there is anyway the Sox would offer Bogey a 9yr contract at this point.

[illinoisredsox]

Kind of weird for me to see Cody Sedlock make his major league debut for the Orioles today; he was a high school classmate of my younger son (Alleman High School Class of 2013).

I’m not entirely sure they should…

[Thunder]

Gee, our starting pitching sure does suck...
