    Cool. I like 60's music and love the Beatles but the real sweet spot for me was the 70's hard rock and prog rock. I like a lot of country rock too. Steve Earle and Joe Ely are two of my favorites in that dept.

    I agree with you, Cora absolutely did the right thing going for the win in the first game. Disappointing to blow the second one, but the Reds are a decent team this year and 2 out of 3 is a good result.
  3. Bellhorn04
    No kidding. I'm almost 70 and I know there are a number here older than me. I guess it makes sense that old guys would have the kind of free time you need to spend hours on a baseball forum.

    The Yankees bullpen is struggling a wee bit.

    If the purpose of the trade for the Sox is to go for the playoffs, why would they bench Story for Campbell, is certainly the biggest head-scratcher here.
  6. Bellhorn04
    That seems like a dubious reason. With the balanced schedule these guys are all seeing different arms all the time.

    Yes, we all have our personal responses. Devers really turned me against him this spring and made me worry about the future of his contract. I honestly feel relieved about it. Obviously it's up to the team to reinvest the money, but I don't see much point worrying about that. They forked out for Crochet and Bregman, they signed 3 extensions with the kids, they paid Cora. They're clearly doing better in that department.

    Most sports fans are a bunch of hypocrites with 20/20 hindsight. If Mookie Betts had a career-ending injury in 2020, people would be talking about how we got away with one. I've tried to explain my position about the Sale trade a million times (I would have been OK with it if we did more than sign Giolito) but it often gets interpreted as me saying they should have known Sale would do great in 2024.

    Yes, my experience with Chicago was the same. I can't really fault these artists for going commercial. When it comes down to do it they have to make a living.

    None of those %s mean much. The Sox are 2.5 games out a Wild Card spot with 76 games left. That's far from out of it. If you want to say it's a 20% chance, that's reasonable. It's not winning the lottery odds, more like winning money at the casino odds.
  11. Bellhorn04
    B-R has 30.2%.
  12. Bellhorn04
    I'm glad he's gone too. There was a cloud hanging over him from the get-go this year. And it's definitely exciting to see Anthony and Mayer starting to pick up some hits.
  13. Bellhorn04
    The 2025 Red Sox probably have a 20-30% chance of making the playoffs as of today, depending on which projection system you look at. That's not really winning the lottery stuff.

    I honestly don't get why it's such a terrible song. The words are icky but it's a catchy tune.
  15. Bellhorn04
    Yes, but at the start of the season he was dealing with rust after his 2024 season was cut short, and he missed a lot of 2025 spring training.
  16. Bellhorn04
    Your realism comes with a side order of Yankee fan bias.
  17. Bellhorn04
    23 Ks in his first 14 games with the Giants is really concerning - for Giants fans.
  18. Bellhorn04
    That song probably wouldn't be hated so much if it wasn't by the former members of a legendary psychedelic band.
  19. Bellhorn04
    I thought you were a WAR guy. That's what you used when you were talking about Ellsbury's contract.
  20. Bellhorn04
    Based on what?
  21. Bellhorn04
    Averages are useful but only if you have sufficient sample sizes and adjustment for outliers - which are two problems with your Gates example. 😉
  22. Bellhorn04
    Yeah, we'll have to agree to disagree. I think history will show that this was a guy who shot his way out of town, and the Sox are going to benefit from having that $250 million obligation off the books.
  23. Bellhorn04
    My gut feeling is the Giants are not going to be happy at all.
  24. Bellhorn04
    I know. Still, it's better than him getting off to a rocking start. Giants are 4-9 since the trade, with 42 runs scored, 3.23 per game.
  25. Bellhorn04
    He has really stepped up his game.
