Kike out with back soreness.

 

Many teams in the AL off to bad starts except for the AL East.

Let's end April with a win.

Have a hard time seeing this game getting played. I’m in Maryland but it appears the whole east coast is getting this rain.

[Maxbialystock]

I was suspicious of Sale's last start at Camden Yards and remain so. His stuff wasn't that bad, but the Orioles had no problem hitting his best pitches. At the time, I said he was tipping his pitches.

There is a possible 2 hour gap.

That’s good. With the pitch clock, that may be enough time to sneak this game in

What was also troubling is Sale couldn’t make anyone miss anything. He had 0 strikeouts and even the outs were loud.

Yeah, I see that. But it's a narrow window and we're getting inundated in Maine as they are west and south of Boston. I'm betting against this getting in.

Reportedly Cora was also very suspicious about that game.

There is nothing good about playing in, or watching a rain game. Drizzle, and fog right now in Boston.

Ha! The last RS game I went to was the day game of a D/N double=header. I assured my friend that if they couldn't play the afternoon game, no worries, they would cancel it. Instead, they cancelled the night game. I sat there in full foul-weather gear for between 5 and 6 hours before the start. The only consolation was that everyone else was more miserable than I was.

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

Good hockey weather in Boston today.

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

A pitcher like Allen is what Masa saw a lot of in Japan.

[Hugh2]

Wait…I thought Sale was cooked. How is he doing this? Are the Guardians tipping their swings?

[d-money]

This offense is just pathetic.

[mvp 78]

The error is on me for just turning the game on. Sorry!

[mvp 78]

s***, it’s a Youk game.

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

This offense is just pathetic.

 

You should once in a while give credit to the pitching. Maybe just once.

[mvp 78]

1. When you foul it straight back you are right on it.

 

2. When you foul it straight back you are late.

 

Which is it?

[Hugh2]

This offense is just pathetic.

 

Today? Through 4 innings? Absolutely. Could be a game decided by one swing

[mvp 78]

Amen. Cleveland pitcher looks terrific.

[mvp 78]

f*** these s*** hitters, amirite…

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

Amen. Cleveland pitcher looks terrific.

 

Why can't the SOX develop Allens?

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

Dugo-licious! And it's an official game.

[notin]

Why can't the SOX develop Allens?

 

The Sox dealt away Allen nearly 7 years ago. Sox fans can’t wait for Brayan Bello to make himself a Cy Young contender after 3 starts and 12 IP, or for Casas to establish himself after 75 at bats. So.. seven years?

Most people who post here are old...patience is a relative virtue.

I guess he was a late Bloom-er.

Hopefully, Bello will be an early Bloom-er.
