I summoned him with my Price v Mods post. Magicks!
-
What does that have to do with you making a joke with an expiration date of a decade ago? Maybe I'm not the only one in dad pant territory?
-
So we should just enjoy our final week of vacation from our moderation overlord?
-
What is this 2005 ********? I exfoliate so that my beard isn't filled with poop and old food. That's like saying "oh you actually floss your teeth, you must actually want your wife to kiss you or something."
-
Who is back first: Price or our moderator?
-
No, my beard is very clean. It gets exfoliated on the reg.
-
I'm going to try to keep it going through the summer this year, but I can't guarantee it. Even sheep need to be sheared once a year.
-
I would have felt great about it if we had the 200 innings horse ready to go too.
-
I don't make mistakes.
-
Per the Supreme Court, they are a territory and lack sovereignty.
-
They've buried Sandoval's bat all spring. I hope he makes them move him up sooner than later.

Yes, that's because I use beard butter and a sandalwood beard comb.
-
My beard is fuller and less pointy than Kimbrel's.

It appears my magicks are working!

You have literally no idea how magical language works.
-
You don't post enough.
-
David Ortiz has a plaque that declares him to be the greatest clutch hitter in Red Sox history. That is a fact. Whether it was done that way as a magical invocation is up for debate. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Magic_(paranormal)#Magical_language

Kelly has the potential and talent to be a great set up man. He just has never put it together.
-
Agreed. I hope this team wins 110+ games and gets another ring. My gut is just telling me something else when it comes to the health of the pitching staff. I think some posters are being a little too optimistic about a return date for Price and how successful he'll be when he returns.
-
See, I don't think 3b is an issue. I think Pablo will be fine. My gut tells me that Hanley may be dealing with injuries this year which could affect DH production bigly. I think C is a question mark as CV didn't have a great glove last year and Leon is probably a flash in the pan. The rest of the lineup should be really, really good. This should be a team that mashes. There are just a lot of concerns for me with the rotation after Sale and Porcello. I think the team will be competitive into late September, but will just drop a few close games in September. The last homestand against the Jays and the 'Stros will either make or break the season, imo. That last month includes a 9 game stretch against the Rays and the A's (at home). They could really clean up, or they could be just really tired after a long season without Price and Pom. At that point, ERod and Wright would be closing on career highs for innings pitched. They could just be flat out worn down. There's a really good chance they could swoon like in 2011 if the starting pitching health really takes a downturn this year.
-
Why? It may actually get Americans to start watching and caring about it.
-
Yup. He's showing a lot more range at 3b and his hitting from the left side is looking better than it has since he's been here.
-
Nope, worst case scenario is 2012, 2014, 2015.

From the Herald: Thornburg falls behind Reliever Tyler Thornburg (shoulder) has missed enough time that he will not be relied upon to be the eighth-inning set-up pitcher to start the season, if he’s even ready to go on Opening Day. That role will be assumed by someone from the right-handed trio of Joe Kelly, Matt Barnes and Heath Hembree. “I think at this point we have to kind of take a wait-and-see with Thornburg,” Farrell said. “If we open up tomorrow, it’s hard to anoint Tyler Thornburg as our eighth-inning guy. He needs to get in better pitching shape just because of the time missed.” After a couple of early and disappointing appearances, Thornburg is slated to appear in a minor league game on Friday. He reported to camp with a shoulder that did not meet the club’s health requirement. “It’s pretty hard to tell where I’ll be,” Thornburg said. “I’ve been bouncing back great from bullpens, but those are a little bit different than games.” I hope Thornburg and Smith pitch as expected, but neither of them are ready yet. Until they are, it's hard to say what kind of performance they will have this year.
