I guess one could call this the Toilet Bowl of baseball.

Anaheim sure is. At least the stadium.

I will say that the toilets in Fenway are among the worst of the worst.

Bathroom Bowl sounds better.

I think Willison (is he with the team) wanted the seven days off, to check in back home, Can't say I would not do the same given his circumstances.

I seriously doubt he doesn't want to be playing tonight, let alone 7 days off.

 

[Deja Doh]

I'll be at the Big A tonight.  Willson Contreras will not.  We need to trade him pronto.  I think he got suspended so he wouldn't have to travel.

I miss those days when the Sox had a decent offense.

They’re nostalgic.  They take me back to my ND student days at the stadium.

The team gets hurt as well.  Not only do they lose his production, they can’t replace him on the roster.  They will play with 25 until next Saturday against the Mets.

Eaton appealed his.  Hopefully the league takes its time with that one because if it’s denied in the next week, they get to play with 24 for 3 (or less) games.

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

Detmers appears to be a good pitcher who's had good success against the Sox. Don't kill the messenger.

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

Contrares and Eaton appear to be in the line-up while they appeal their suspensions.

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

No Trout tonight because he's where he usually is. On the 10 day IL

I seldom take a long piss.

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

Angels could pass the Sox if they sweep them.

I knew Eaton had; didn’t know Willson did, but not surprised.

7 games seems unfair because Contreras didn't instigate the brawl.

Unfortunately, his helmet didn't reach the intended target.

[Deja Doh]

Eaton and Contreras in lineup.  Weather is perfect.

Might be fair, but the unfair part is 7 for Cavalli, which amounts to missing 1 start.
