Someone must have kidnapped Fred in mid sentence.

To paraphrase Patton, find whoever it was and give him a medal.

Breslow was getting desparate and kidnapped Fred mid-sentence to replace Paez on the mound.  Go Fred!

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

Chad asked Wong about Paez 's stuff. Wong answered that he didn't catch enough of his pitches to give an honest answer.

I meant to say BS but caught myself

Wasn’t Olds a better bet to start this?

Usually when Fred gets kidnapped, he posts "I'm outta here."

I was kidnapped once-but the kidnappers  refused pay the ransom my family was going to charge them to accept me back. Eventually they couldn’t take it anymore and here I am

Cy Olds. The award that should be given to Scherzer.

[Bailey_Fox]

Would you rather have Paez on the mound or me, a 6’6 280 pound guy throwing 80..?

[Bailey_Fox]

…. Are you telling me that Dave O’Brian doesn’t know who PABLO SANCHEZ IS?! wow. That’s embarrassing.

So the kidnappers never got the money and your parents couldn't rent out the basement.

What a revolting development that was.

[Bailey_Fox]

Time to wave the white flag 🏳️

Do you throw a good change up?

The white flag was waving before the game started.

[Joe M]

would'nt it be nice if we were able to bring up Anthony Eyanson and  Kyson witherspoon who are dominant now with Baltimore.  Breslow thought they were expendable to get a failing catcher.

It’s alright. Moves like a sinker at around 82-84

[Bailey_Fox]

Still good to see Story hitting pretty well, staying in the gaps (mostly)

I've heard of Pablo Sandoval. He was over 280 pounds and played 3rd base. He once popped his belt swinging at a pitch as a member of the Sox 

Pablo was a fan favorite and a great pickup for the Sox. We can only hope Rutschman turns out as well.

Dominant with Baltimore?  They’re nowhere near Baltimore; they’re in AA.  
 

Paez was good in the minors, too…

Sadly, I don't believe the Sox do the public tryouts anymore.

Pablo also ate Hanley Ramirez.  So he wasn’t all bad…

He also provided shade for the Sox SS.

And his teammates used to get in shape running laps around him.  
 

Usually two laps was enough…

The Penguin. He just brings back great memories.

Giving credit where credit's due. The Penguin was pretty athletic for his round figure.

It's always good when a member of the Sox hits well, no matter if he's loved or not.

[moonslav59]

Well, we know Paez is no Tolle or Bennett and probably no Eyanson, either.
