  1. No, this is the website where Houck has established himself as a starting pitcher by shutting down a AAA lineup for six innings and therefore people need to ignore that he has never pitched more than 106 IP in MLB in a season in his career. I still think Houck, like most pitchers, is better suited for the bullpen. But he is probably a better option for the rotation over any of the other pitchers the Sox have left...
  2. Yes. Those Seattle Sox. I can’t get my facepalm emoji to work…
  3. Sox SP through 4 games: 25K 1BB
  4. Or maybe he could have acquired a pitcher or two since the Sox were only 2 games out of the postseason…
  5. Back tightness…
  6. The backend of this bullpen is full of question marks (although technically Joely is an exclamation point after an expletive). Pitchers like Rodriguez and Weissert are depth option buried at the bottom of the 40 whose position on their Topps Card should read “In Case of Emergency”, not players on the roster on opening day…
  7. I imagine Joely was kept over Bernardino because the latter had options. (Joely was on a minor league deal, but with an upward mobility clause.) The big problem was the Sox pushed two relievers into the pen and only signed one reliever to replace them, and that was Joely. They ignored plenty of better options on the market. This is basically the exact same thing Bloom did last year…
  8. I think you misspelled “O”….
  9. Well, a lot of these guys go to college essentially to major in baseball. There’s no Master’s degree in baseball…
  10. That made zero sense to me. I thought Dombrowski handled it poorly, but assumed he would do the smart thing. He never did (although Bloom might have made it tougher)…
  11. I have an injunction…
  12. I wonder if the overall low expectations for the Sox this year has kept some of the rabble of the game threads…
  13. That’s being ridiculous. And why I largely ignore game threads…
  14. I have been, but it’s contingent on SP health and durability…
  15. Disagree. If you put him in, you get the credit. If a reliever comes in with the bases loaded and no one out, and he induces sac fly, K, K, he did a tremendous job limiting damage, but he should be charged with an earned run?
  16. Unless she was deep under cover…
  17. Maybe she did…
  18. The ultimate cover would be repeatedly bullying your own alter ego. Think about what it would be like if Spider-Man and Peter Parker each constantly explained to every character on the same page/scene how he was going to bring the other down. Ok it might have been weird that superhero Spider-Man had this weird fixation that his arch-nemesis was a nerdy high school kid. But I think it would have made these stories even better.
  19. More expensive than a car…
  20. Unless you want Dijon, which is $27.50…
  21. But at least he stopped doing broadcasts in his underwear…
  22. I wish they had. I’m just left guessing. Archery? Interior design? Snowboarding? Card tricks? I’m sure it’s something…
  23. Unless their owner goes all John Henry and they don’t extend Adley Rutschman and Gunnar Henderson and instead trade both away for some futuristic version of Jeter Downs…
  24. Better at what? I’m sure Uwasawa is better at lots of things. Better cook, for example. Could be. Better chess player maybe. Better at cosplay, perhaps? The only activity I’m certain of is that Yamamoto is better at pitching…
  25. 1. Absolutely. It’s a delicious feast laden with nostalgia. 2. Am I the only moron who thought the team moniker was “Ham Fighter” and their logo was or should have been a hitter standing at the plate wielding a large ham by the bone at the base as if it was a bat?
