  1. Wrong is wrong.
  2. Until he can do it against MLB pitching, I'm not sold on him being able to do it.
  3. You're good. The vast majority of us are completely reasonable human beings.
  4. @ByChrisMason Mookie Betts told me he’s got a plan if the Yankees throw back at him: “Take my base and go score a run. I think a loss would hurt a little more than however hard the ball is coming.” Mookie is just the bestest!
  5. Nah, my tiny brain doesn't need a large cranium to reside in!
  6. Don't break up double plays.
  7. Price throwing in the OF right now. No issues.
  8. It's not reviewable because Holt didn't try to turn two. If he attempts a throw, they review it.
  9. Starting lineup is out. Who is making the game thread? Someone else's turn.
  10. https://twitter.com/RedSox/status/984504512911237121 I'm sorry. I need to apologize for hating on Joe Kelly's straight fastball. The dude is clearly good for the clubhouse. He's a funny guy. His entrance music is the Walmart kid singing Lovesick Blues. He stands up for his teammates. He's great.
  11. There was no review performed tho?
  12. Me thinks that this post was so good that harmony is intentionally ignoring your valid points.
  13. Yup, that punch is going to get him a harsher suspension most likely.
  14. You can go over the bag, but you can no longer slide past the bag. It was an illegal slide.
  15. Nah. Knowing Mariners fans, they're just as miserable towards their own team.
  16. I don't need to respond to any other point you're making subsequently to stating that Moreland can't field his position. You were wrong. There's not point you can't make that explains how Moreland doesn't field his position.
  17. Upset that his bacne exploded last night. Poor guy! A fine addition to that "classy" Yankees franchise.
  18. Part of those roided up Padres teams. https://goodmenproject.com/sports/all-steroids-team-phil-nevin/ In the February 2004 edition of Peter Gammons’ “News and Notes,” the Hall of Fame sportswriter makes a couple of interesting observations. First, Gammons tells us that San Diego Padres first baseman Phil Nevin “has lost 30 pounds after a winter of yoga, pilates, and workouts and looks tremendous.” Then, Gammons adds that another first baseman, the Yankees’ Jason Giambi, “has lost 25 pounds and is clearly focused on coming back from the knee surgery to play first base.” Hulking, power-hitting first basemen going on crash diets and joining their wives for pilates? Something smelled fishy. Just the season before, Giambi had the third-best at-bats-per-home-run ratio (13) in the American League. Meanwhile, during his four years with the San Diego Padres, Nevin had been averaging a home run every 17.4 at bats. What Gammons failed to mention in his notes: during the 2004 season, Major League Baseball would begin implementing random testing for performance enhancing drugs. Three seasons and three teams later, Nevin’s career would be over.
  19. It shouldn't pain you to admin that I'm right. I'm just that damn good at TS posting.
  20. http://www.nydailynews.com/sports/baseball/yankees/alex-cora-stung-yankees-joe-kelly-fastball-article-1.3930076 "That was bush-league stuff," the former manager said, speaking of Cora. "You don't disrespect the other coaching staff like that. Nevin is a well-respected guy in the game, a former No. 1 pick … the guy had a good career. What has Cora done? He's a first-year manager, he's not Mike Scioscia. "I don't know what was said, but Cora was waving Nevin away like, 'you're not on my level.' And (Cora) was back in the dugout by then. It looked like that got (Aaron) Boone fired up, and I don't blame him. The former player, who admittedly has some old Yankee bias, agreed. "Cora was out of line from what I saw," the player said. "Players look out for their coaches. They're not going to forget that. "There's a lot more there than a guy getting drilled for spiking the second baseman," he said. "Teams are going to retaliate for that. Whether it was intentional or not, you don't go after somebody's leg with your spikes up like that and not expect to hear about it from the other team." It's true, Austin's slide was the type that almost always provokes a reaction of some kind. Naturally the Yankees were going to defend Austin, but if they saw the replay I have to think that, at least privately, some probably understood the Red Sox reaction. Instead, I thought Hall of Famer Chipper Jones, on Twitter, spelled out what is probably pretty universal reaction among players: "U slide in with ur spikes up and catch a piece ur gonna get thrown at young fella. That's how baseball works. It polices itself, whether people like it or not. That will never change. Love the spirit in both squads, though." Crying about Cora telling another coach to go sit down is great. I do like that the NY writer eventually admits that the slide was dirty tho. Good stuff.
  21. Leon isn't a "real" hitter?
  22. Pfft, Judge was preventing Kelly from ripping out Austin's throat. Austin is a little baby bitch. I hope he enjoys his 15 minutes like Karim Garcia.
  23. @ByChrisMason I’m sure a bunch of Red Sox fans missed this because it was on the YES broadcast, but Alex Cora told Phil Nevin to take a hike after the brawl. #Likability https://www.clippituser.tv/c/qdwmaq GOAT
  24. Poyner is on the DL. Walden was called up.
