  1. Thanks for the kind thought ... I had a great week outside of baseball.
  2. The Mariners are cursed. Impressive sweep for the Red Sox.
  3. This Seattle fan picked a good time to vacation, taking a break from Mariner telecasts. Two in-person college games provided a welcome respite.
  4. The Red Sox record can move ahead of Seattle's record by winning two of the next three games. Or by winning Friday evening.
  5. The Red Sox needed an extra inning to take last year's seven-game season series: https://www.baseball-reference.com/boxes/SEA/SEA202109150.shtml This in-attendance fan was heartbroken when a Jarred Kelenic drive landed just foul with a runner on second base in the bottom of the ninth inning.
  6. The Red Sox have a team ERA+ of 106 while the Mariners have a team ERA+ of 96: https://www.baseball-reference.com/leagues/AL/2022.shtml
  7. https://www.baseball-reference.com/boxes/BOS/BOS202104240.shtml In an Over the Monster podcast today, Chris Flexen is referred to as a "below-average" pitcher: https://www.overthemonster.com/2022/5/19/23126274/boston-red-sox-podcast-houston-astros-nick-pivetta-complete-game-seattle-mariners-preview ... which perhaps Flexen has been this season after posting a 3.61 ERA in 179.2 innings last year as a back-of-rotation starter: https://www.fangraphs.com/players/chris-flexen/13896/stats?position=P
  8. FWIW Eugenio Suarez has a wRC+ of 126 and is on pace for 4+ fWAR. The Seattle Mariners are sixth in the league with a team wRC+ of 110 while the Red Sox are 11th in the league with a team wRC+ of 89: https://www.fangraphs.com/leaders.aspx?pos=all&stats=bat&lg=al&qual=0&type=8&season=2022&month=0&season1=2022&ind=0&team=0,ts&rost=0&age=0&filter=&players=0&startdate=2022-01-01&enddate=2022-12-31&sort=17,d
  9. Last year the Seattle Mariners split a four-game series at Fenway Park, outscoring the Red Sox 23-16, with a rotation of Justin Dunn, Yusei Kikuchi, Chris Flexen and Nick Margevicius. This year the Mariners send George Kirby, Robbie Ray, Flexen and Logan Gilbert to the mound. Should be an interesting series.
  10. No. Two off Catfish Hunter, two off one reliever and one off another reliever: https://www.baseball-reference.com/boxes/MIN/MIN196606090.shtml
  11. The Twins of the 1960s once hit five homers in an inning. Before today five other teams reportedly have hit five home runs in an inning. https://www.quora.com/What-are-the-most-home-runs-hit-in-one-inning-in-MLB-baseball-history
  12. Despite heightened expectations, the postseason odds for the floundering Seattle Mariners are down to 16 percent as the M's embark on a tough 10-game road trip against two good teams and the Boston Red Sox.
  13. It's the same in any industry. A prospective employee will consider earnings among other considerations in choosing a place of employment.
  14. Outside deals? Speaking engagements? Endorsements?
  15. That's akin to a fan of a small-market team losing respect for a player who signs with a big-market team.
  16. It could be worse. Another team with heightened expectations has lost 10 of its last 11 games.
  17. Or to snap MLB's longest current streak of consecutive losing seasons.
  18. September 19, 2020: https://www.baseball-reference.com/boxes/BOS/BOS202009190.shtml
  19. The Red Sox should have better days ahead.
  20. https://blogs.fangraphs.com/garrett-whitlock-is-bostons-most-valuable-pitcher/
  21. Is Connor Seabold ready? https://www.milb.com/player/connor-seabold-657756 https://www.milb.com/gameday/red-sox-vs-mud-hens/2022/05/04/664473#game_state=final,lock_state=final,game_tab=box,game=664473
  22. So far Seattle has a 2-4 record against Houston despite taking an earlier series from the Astros. At least the Mariners have a better record against the Astros than the Red Sox have against the Blue Jays. It should be an interesting season ... thanks for asking.
  23. Tough loss but the Red Sox can take the series against the AL West leaders with a win on Thursday.
  24. Only a road team's pitcher can record a blown save in extra innings.
  25. FWIW Roster Resource has Jaylin Davis and Tyler Danish on the 40-man roster: https://www.fangraphs.com/roster-resource/depth-charts/red-sox
