That's life in a 2020 COVID bubble. At least the same can be said for everybody else (or can it? I don't have the schedule in front of me)
-
Momentum is only as good as the next night's starting pitcher. But yes, the Yankees are the better team. No doubt about it. Keep Sanchez on the bench
-
Nothing like a 9 year bump on an introductions thread
-
Was Pearce a free agent as well? Or was he part of a trade? Quite literally wouldn't have a ring without the WS MVP
-
I can agree with that. A bunch of obscenities and evil looks were thrown my way walking into Yankee Stadium as a 12 year old. Shockingly, when I went there in 2019, everybody was chill
-
I keep forgetting you're an SC fan. If you lived out there, I was going to ask if you ever saw Lori Laughlin at games
-
That's called the Lane Kiffin treatment https://www.businessinsider.com/usc-fired-coach-lane-kiffin-on-plane-2013-9#:~:text=USC%20Fires%20Coach%20Lane%20Kiffin,Night%20After%20A%20Blowout%20Loss&text=AP%20The%20USC%20Trojans%20fired,was%20told%20when%20he%20landed.

Well, I stand corrected I know I would miss being at ballparks permanently, but travelling isn't such a strain on my health
-
Wait they fired Moon?
-
Also, he didn't have to play the race card. It drives me crazy when people play the race card for everything, especially for things that clearly didn't happen because of someone's race
-
I will never sit up there if I can help it. When I took a tour of Fenway years ago, they told us that they usually get a couple of broken noses per year. And that's just from balls hit up there, not to mention bar fights that break out. It's basically one big Irish pub up there
-
Only thing sadder than that is the fact that I'm still 5'8"
-
I really hope there are fans in the stands next year. I liked empty ballparks more than I thought, but it's not the same. But, if there are fans in the seats next year, I have a huge decision to make.
-
Plus he isn't Glasnow's size. I was 5'8" when I was 12, and I didn't pitch much, but when I did, they told me to wear my pants up, because showing your socks makes you look even taller and more intimidating
-
You must have really loved baseball in the 1960s
-
Your first two points are fair points. But, as for the last one, are you saying he shouldn't have gone after A-Rod? As a catcher, there's not much he could have done differently in that situation. I suppose he could have gone after him while he was hitting, so he wouldn't have his gear on. Hit a HR and then punch A-Rod while rounding third base. Is that what you're saying? That he picked the wrong situation to do it in?
-
I feel like over time, he will prove to have Big Dick Rick syndrome
-
Yeah, well I haven't. I've switched to football, or do I have to wait until the end of the World Series?
-
The only thing about that quote that I dispute is the fact that we are not that far away from contending
-
What happens when we don't hear that name?
-
Yes, how could I forget about Wakefield's personal catcher
-
I agree with you, I was just throwing that question out there. I can see it going either way. I wish the current managerial transition lined up better with Tek's development as a coach. Catchers do make fantastic managers, however. Joe Girardi and Mike Matheny come to mind. He would be great at developing our young pitchers, so I think he merits some consideration. The Cubs hired Ross without any prior coaching experience, and that's worked out pretty well for them. I know our players would love playing for Tek, just as they do in Chicago
-
Is it too early for Varitek to be manager?
-
Likewise, the Marlins would probably be near or under .500 in a 162 season, and the Astros would likely get back over .500. Also, the Dodgers were on pace to win 116 games.

I have family in NE Ohio that are long suffering Guardians and Browns fans, so I will be doing my best John Adams impression and banging that drum for the next three days or so.
