There could be a squeeze, but more likely an injury. If no injury, it's easy enough to move the lowest rung back to WOO for now. I just worry that they hold onto Brasier for too long. I'm not sure what to make of Paxton's chances for coming back. He's never pitched out of the pen, so it's more likely they'd push Pivetta out there. I can't count on Paxton though. I think I'd rather Pivetta being an inning eater anyway? IDK. Kluber Sale Whitlock/Houck Bello Paxton/Pivetta

It was a dream, just like the Newhart Show.

George Scott is going to be honored at tonight's game! I hope the Sox can hit a lot of taters in his memory.
-
He's my grandfather in law (wife's grandfather). It's great that my kids actually get to be around him and have fond memories of their great grandfather. We just helped move him to an Assisted Living facility that is at the end of our neighborhood. My dad is also a Red Sox fan and I can guarantee that he knew who Kluber, Turner and Duvall are. He's much more on the positive side of things than the grandfather in law.
-
He said he did play catch regularly, but it was nothing like training to pitch.
-
No, they should have let him get out sooner. They have done so for other players. David Robinson only served for 2 years, for example. The problem is that the rules have changed over and over and Song was kind of stuck in limbo. Unfortunately, it could make students think a potential military commitment and a future athletic employment being incompatible.
-
Bleier should be the closer. He has a -0.78 xFIP! I would have to see some regression before I thought about moving Winckowski. He has been more than solid.
-
They quietly gave Cora a 2 year extension because of last year's pigs. Wonder what they'll have to do if it happens this year.
-
Well, he is 92 and he's had a lot of stuff going on in his life since 2020. I'll leave it at that. He gets a pass from me. He'll watch all 161 Sox games available on MLV.tv or local cable this year.
-
It's really the best advertisement for the Navy. Do you have a promising career and sports and like the Navy? Look at this high profile Noah Song case! Handled so well!
-
Yeah, maybe! Probably why they'll go back to piggybacking him with Whitlock or Paxton when they return.
-
He bitched about Big Papi being washed up for years, so maybe Sale can come around? It would take quite an effort though. The best part of the series was explaining to him who all the new players were and where they came from (Kluber, Turner, Tapia, Duvall). He didn't remember Kluber because that's how long it's been since Kluber has been relevant as a player to normal fans.
-
Or how many times have we said "if only we had one two extra games in April?"
-
This will root out the mystery Sox employee that Old Red believes posts on here!!! LOL I'm going to say 4/15. That's the 2nd game of the Angels series and the day after the Apple TV game. It is two weeks into the season.
-
Hard to do it that way as 23, 24 and 25 would burn all his option years. You'd need to fast track him sooner than 2025.
-
He wasn't actually the one flying the plane though as he is too tall.
-
Unbelievable!
-
Didn't see that one. Consider this Part II if that makes you feel better.
-
Baseball Jesus. MVP Season. It's the 2 true outcomes that were promised...
-
The worry with Schreiber is that his velo appears to be down and he had a bad Spring Training. We'll see if his stuff ticks back up. Joely should help when he comes back. Crawford and Houck may kick Ort/Brasier/Kelly out of the pen when Whitlock and Bello return. There was hope that Winckowski's pitch mix would "play up" out of the pen and so far it has. He wasn't hitting 97 with his splitter last year and 3 k's in 3 innings is good for him. That slider is still a below average pitch. He may need to stop throwing it or at least reduce using it.

Pitch clock is fine. The batter having to have his head up by 8 seconds is weird (was not a rule), but they'll have to adjust. I wonder if they will need to fix the amount of times they can attempt pickoffs if the SB numbers get too high. I like SB's and don't see a need for a change.
-
Sitting with my 92 year old grandfather-in-law this weekend, I was very nervous about what he was going to say about Masa throughout the games. I think I did a good job of convincing him that Masa was good. His two favorite players are Kiké and Verdugo. He wants Sale gone because he hasn't done anything in forever. He HATES Kelly, Ort, Brasier and Wong.
-
Also, I don't know what the talk has been about the LED lights, but I like the LED lights in theory, but hate how the Sox are currently using them. After the Duvall HR, they basically just flicked them on and off like a grandma trying to yell at her grandkids while she's babysitting. They either need to make it more subdued or add a spotlight or color or something else.
-
I would either have two lines of stats (22 and 23) or show the stat line twice. On May 1, I'd then stop talking about 22.
