As far as we know, Mookie wanted 420 mill from the Sox. Maybe if he had come back and said 12/365 would be fine, they would have done it.
-
Jeter. That's 3.

Hitting major league pitching is really hard, and it's only getting harder. I think one of the Jays announcers said there are now over 100 MLB pitchers averaging 96 and up on their fastball.
-
As good as Mookie is, 10 year + contracts are flat out nuts. -Mookie has already missed time this year for no less than 3 different injuries. Not much time altogether, but maybe those injuries are affecting him at the plate. -Trout is on the shelf for a while. Who knows if this is the start of long-term injury issues for him? -Lindor currently boasts an OPS of .565.

Voit is another of those muscular guys that Cash seems to love and that has a lot of trouble staying on the field.
-
I should add, Brad Marchand was born even closer to me than Crosby was.
-
oldtimer, you're certainly entitled to differ with management, but you seem to be really frustrated, which I don't quite understand. It seems to me you couldn't ask for more savvy guys than Bloom and Cora running things.
-
Mookie is definitely 'scuffling', by his standards. At .247 and .792 after last night's game.
-
So it was well played, then.
-
Now you're dissing my hometown hero. Sid has 3 rings, that's not so bad.
-
I went to bed unsure if the game was over or not. Over the years they have resumed play after some crazy long delays at Fenway!
-
Our pitching is about #10 out of 30 in MLB. That's about as good as you can expect with our staff.
-
Weather forecasts are generally pretty damn accurate. When I looked at the forecast last night I figured the rain was going to start right around the 6th or 7th inning.
-
Boone says Kluber will be out a minimum of 8 weeks - 4 weeks of no throwing and 4 weeks of building back up.
-
Kluber has a 'subscap strain'. No throwing for 4 weeks per Boone.
-
Thunder said 'Book it'.
-
It does pick up some, yes.
-
But the emphasis on launch angle resulted in more home runs, and run scoring stayed pretty much the same. This year run scoring has dipped down to 4.38, from 4.83 in 2019 and 4.65 in 2020. It appears that the difference may be the baseballs, which have higher seams and produce more spin. So now fans of offense and runs are getting the worst of all possible worlds.
-
It's not really the hitting into the shift that's unwatchable. It's all the K's and the lack of balls in play.
-
Guys like Steve Matz have good nights. He wouldn't be still in the bigs otherwise.
-
That ain't gonna happen. It's already been tried to some degree with the tax and revenue sharing.
-
The juiced ball was blamed for the surge in home runs, not hits.
-
Sale's 300 K's night comes to mind.
-
It's been said that some pitches are more high-stress than others. In any case, Boone is clearly not at fault.
