Hmmm, you seem to be the type of guy that would say that we didn't really need all SIX Dorf movies.

No, but activating Ryan "the Real Deal" Lavarnway should always get a mention on here.

I grumbled a bit at the beginning of the 09 and 10 seasons about Papi's performance and my wife still to this day gets on me for it.

Ortiz 2009: 5/14/09 - 618 OPS, 0 HR, 61 WRC+ Ortiz 2010: 4/30/10 - 524 OPS, 1 HR, 38 WRC+

Thank God that there are 2 Gallaghers and not 2 Kissingers though...

Holding back a player doesn't make any sense whatsoever. If the guy is ready, get him reps.

IDK, Kissinger's jowls are hilarious.

Well, Kissinger did with the Peace Prize, so you got a good chance.

SSS alert!

He's 26 with over 2,000 plate appearances. I don't think a rough 30 AB stretch is going to harm him immeasurably.

I've had some friends that have done marketing and accounting for some of the MLB teams. They didn't stay very long.

I have a friend who worked for the USC football team during their national title years. He even had a ring or two that he'd wear once in a while. It made me extremely jealous that my chosen colleges were not football powerhouses (though Richmond did have a decent FCS team for a few years).

My point has more to do with furthering Dalbec's development, NOT their playoff hopes this year.

I went to the offseason thread about re-signing Mitch, but it was just people yelling about Ryan Weber.

I think people on here turn on him when the annual injury crops up.

@alexspeier Bobby Dalbec is in Tampa Bay -- for now, as part of the Red Sox taxi squad. But could the ongoing struggles of Michael Chavis opening a door for Dalbec's big league debut? Yes, but I bet we start dicking around with service time like other small market teams do.

@SportsCenter Breaking: UConn will announce on Wednesday that it's suspending its football program for the 2020 season because of the COVID-19 pandemic, Huskies coach Randy Edsall confirmed to Adam Rittenberg. UConn is the first FBS program to suspend its football season.

People were hoping for a .500 season. This is not that.

Why? He won't be the manager next season.

You're fighting an uphill battle here. It's a righteous battle tho.

And yet people wonder why they keep bringing him back.

Dear John, Get rid of Tom Werner. Also, what are your thoughts on garlic and wooden stakes? Best, Greatest Living TalkSox Poster

No reason to swing at the end of the game Beni.

Is Tim Hyer even traveling with the team?
