6/24 Jays @ SOX 7:10 PM ET

[Old Red]

That is just horsehockey. I know some players might think that way, but in fact pitchers rarely go more than 1 IP in the ASG and the players not more than 3 innings.

 

Plus the ASG, unlike the one for the NBA, which is a joke, and the NFL, where no good players go, the MLB ASG is real baseball. The hitters are trying to hit and the pitchers are trying to get them out and the fielders are fielding up a storm.

 

The Baseball ASG is a joke compared to how it used to be when it was pretty much a real game.

[Hugh2]

I don’t think talking about being sellers on a daily basis is enjoying anything. Selling is for losers, and the shoe must fit more than one on here.🙈🤭🤮

 

Yes, when teams are in last place. People talk about selling off expiring assets.

 

When a team is (checks notes) in the playoffs, people talk about buying.

 

Thank you for coming to my Ted talk.

Campbell was brought up due to Wong being on paternity leave.

 

No he wasn’t. Heineman was recalled for that.

 

Campbell and Winckowski up, Booser and Keller down.

 

Keller I get, Booser I don’t. He’s pitched decently

And still your best work was when threw a hissy fit, took your toys, and went home, and said you wasn’t coming back. A+ for that, but F for coming back. The team wasn’t in last place the last three years in the offseason when the selling talk always starts. LOSERS talk that way.🤭🙈🤮

[illinoisredsox]

His or Breslow's choice may have been to call up Criswell for that game and send Keller back earlier. But I guess you can rehash at least 60 games you are guaranteed to lose every year. The BP'ers did win the game but possibly at the expense of this one, so who gained ?

 

When you send a guy down, he has to stay 10 days unless there’s an injury. And it has to be pitcher for pitcher, position player for position player.

 

Rule came in a couple years ago to stop some of the yo-yoing.

I think Booser was just because he pitched every game in the Reds series and he was probably unavailable for 1-2 days anyway. Not saying I wanted Campbell back, but I can at least see some logic in that.

[Hugh2]

We are literally about a year removed from “if he can just be more consistent with the bat he might be passable in left field” with Jaren Duran.

Booser pitched in all 3 games in Cincinnati. His demotion could be related to simply getting a fresher arm on board…

And less than two years removed from Sean McDounough’s infamous “he’s not a major leaguer.”…

[moonslav59]

In Cancun waiting for flight to Barcelona, so I missed the game- maybe the first in many years.

 

Glad to see the box score and the comeback win!

At least you get to see topless French (or any other kind) women in the Barcelona beaches.

Forgot about that; that’s probably it. Tough part is the 10 day thing though.

The Sox do at least have 2 off days during that 10 day span. He’ll definitely be back almost as soon as the 10 days end, especially if Campbell keeps pitching this terrible.

Money well spent

The Baseball ASG is a joke compared to how it used to be when it was pretty much a real game.

 

We definitely agree it was in fact a real game, meaning a competitive one with all players trying to win. I think they are still trying to win--or at least to get guys out and to get hits.

Campbell needs to be liberated.

Cancun? Barcelona? Global warming?

More than a year. When he played last year, it was apparent from the outset his defense was improved. I had no great insights about Duran back then, but can say he has improved dramatically well past the usual age for doing so.

[moonslav59]

Cancun? Barcelona? Global warming?

 

Just a connecting flight in Cancun.

 

Barcelona is cooler than Houston
