[Old Red]

Tommy Bella Donna has been scratched and replaced by Josh Winckowski.

 

TBD is Cora filling out the lineup card everyday. 🙈🤭🤫

[Old Red]

TBD=Wink

 

I was talking about the daily lineup, and the availability.

[Jasonbay44]

He's at -0.9 bWAR going into today. Something to watch for sure. Might see a new record this year.

 

Incredibly that’s not even the worst, Jose Abreu somehow has a -1.4. That guy really fell off hard

[Thunder]

Sounds good. I’d be down. I’m not 100% which/how many games in Cincy we’d be going too because my friends also want to knockout NFL Hall of Fame and go to see Cedar Point but we’ll absolutely be at the very least 1 of them and most likely 2.

 

Sweet! When my parents come to visit me in PGH for the first time in July, we’re going to Canton as well. My aunt and uncle live about 20 minutes away and despite our many trips to the area, we have never actually been to the Hall of Fame

The SOX hitting coach apparently believed "swing hard in case you hit it." He's changed his philosophy of late "don't swing hard because you'll probably hurt yourself." Edited April 21, 2024 by SPLENDIDSPLINTER

Casas may get Wally Pipped by Reyes.

This was a guy Bloom wanted, badly!

 

Where did all the Bloom kiss asses go?

And the Astros GM wanted him even more

"Gone to graveyards every one."

That was just Interest Kings stuff, man.

[vegasbob]

Great question. May I call a friend? I'm guessing if there was a player with a lower WAR than Reyes, he'd be in today's SOX line-up.

 

Dalbec ?? This lineup is truly the pits. Reyes at 1B and Booby D at 3B. Devers must be injured really bad.

[vegasbob]

BTW, MVP 78, nice run so far streaking some wins together. But if you get this one today with this lineup, you are, in fact, the MVP.

[Tedballgame]

I thought a lineup the Sox used earlier this week was the worst Red Sox lineup I had ever seen but this one tops it. Wow!

[notin]

I would propose that the fairest statement is that 3 out of 6 projected starting pitchers are injured.

 

I just said “three starters”…

[moonslav59]

The Stros are really struggling. This hole might get too deep to come out of.

Do I get any credit for being at all 3 games, and for sitting here with my winter coat and gloves today?

[vegasbob]

Did anyone else see Ryan Brasier come in for the Dodgers yesterday vs Mets in a tight game ? Ryan gives up a 3 run HR to dead center on the first pitch. He was ok after getting that one out of his system.

Only if the Red Sox win, Thunder. Sorry but it's the big leagues, not a participation event.

Earlier this week you posted that you are a Pirates season ticket holder and you didn't know who you were going to be rooting for, the Pirates or the Sox. No true Red Sox fan would ever say that, so no, you get no credit.

[Jasonbay44]

Before I could even finish taking a Piss Dalbec, Reyes and whoever else just went 1-2-3

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

Never thought I'd see the day when the SOX had two Tylers.

KOJI like.

[d-money]

Feels like one of those letdown games.

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

I think it's getting to the point to bring up some AA players.

But, seriously, the SOX are over .500. Can this team just continue to overachieve? Stay tuned.

Letdown game? What are your expectations in a game starting a reliever and missing 5 regular starters?

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

Just finished listening to the new Black Crowes' cd HAPPINESS BASTARDS. Real good; they're back to their original roots.

[Jasonbay44]

Good swings by Rafaela and Duran. Need to score here

[Tedballgame]

Sox are on the board! Yes!

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

This lineup has been good bang for the buck.

[Tedballgame]

Sox take the lead! Yes!
