A lot of folks are almost always pessimistic and have low expectations. Last year was a bizarre season . You really should not base expectations on that debacle. To me, it is loser talk to say , " It was a great season even if we lose."
-
The Yankees don't get enough base hits. It's home run or nothing. Their offense gets shut down quite often as a result. Throw in some bad base running and not a lot of speed . The Sox win was not the least bit surprising.
-
That is very possible . The Dodgers are the only team that worries me. Maybe the Cards can upset them tonight.
-
I am definitely not one of those who thinks the Sox overachieved , nor I am thrilled just to make it this far. This is a very good team. The Rays are good , but they always seem to come up a little short . The Astros and White Sox are good , but definitely beatable.
-
I do think taking Eovaldi out was a little puzzling. But as they say , " All's well that ends well."
-
ALDS predictions : Red Sox over Rays. White Sox over Astros. ALCS prediction: BoSox over ChiSox. Red Sox go to the Fall Classic.

Max , From you , I expected a detailed breakdown of Marilyn's vital statistics.

You could usually find some good looking ladies On The Waterfront.

Movie stars are mostly the product of the Hollywood publicity mills. ( And sometimes , the casting couch). They can need a dozen takes to film one scene , tons of makeup and some heavy editing. Back in the day , you could walk down Main Street and see a dozen girls as hot as Marilyn Monroe. But you can't fake hitting the old knuckle curve or the high 90's heater.

What tickles me is when folks say , " I hope I'm wrong but , " followed by some dire prediction. -
I don't have a problem with Vazquez making 7 mil. He has been with the team seven years. These guys build their salary with their service time , just like in any business.
-
Plawecki is an okay backup catcher. Vazquez is better.
-
The Sox finished eight games behind the Rays , with a payroll four times the size. There is no way that Cora wins manager of the year over Cash. Nor should he.
-
I guess it is fitting that it will be the Sox vs Yankees . It has been that way so many times over the years. I do feel a little bad for Toronto . They have a dynamic , explosive team , and it would have been interesting to see how they did in big games. They might have been a dangerous team in the playoffs.
-
The Rays have nothing to play for, but they are the best team in the league. And have the best manager , who plays to win. The Nationals have nothing to play for , and they flat out stink. I'll take the Sox' chances today.
-
Taillon is not that good. The Rays might jump on him right away and put the Yankees in a big hole. If I was Boone , I would start Severino and see how far he could go . Then go to the top bullpen guys.
-
It seems to often happen that run differential does not match up with the actual won - loss record. Every game is a separate contest. The previous day's runs don't carry over. And winning the close games involves more than just luck.
-
Boone could take lessons from Kevin Cash . ( So could just about every other manager )
-
Any resemblance between Jordan Montgomery and Andy Pettitte is purely coincidental . Any resemblance between Aaron Boone and Joe Torre is likewise .
-
I think a lot of the Yankee's troubles come from razing the old stadium. The old Yankee Stadium had a rich history , an aura , an intimidating presence. Home to some of the greats. The house that Ruth built. Hosted world championship fights , classic football games , a papal Mass and countless big baseball games. The new stadium has none of that. The Yanks won a championship in the first year there , but none since. Despite the improved amenities , it lacks the atmosphere of greatness that the old Stadium had. It's just not the same.

OPSbip? Ooofah.
-
Three more games against another last place team. A team that tanked their season. You can't ask for an easier task than the Orioles and Nats. Honestly, if you can't beat these guys , you should just hang your head and go home. Please spare me/us the " they exceeded our expectations" crap.

The ups and downs of a Sox fan: The next time Garrett Richards pitches a scoreless inning : " Let's pick up his option and make him the closer." ..... Richards blows one big time: " Get rid of the bum."
-
We take you now to a home in Attleboro , where overweight , out of shape , disgruntled , livid , Sox fan Matthew Farge sits in his overstuffed easy chair , munching snacks and screaming at the TV. " These freakin bums are choking , Mabel . Choking I tell you ." Mabel Farge : " Take it east ,Matt. You are going to burst a blood vessel. ". Matt: " I can't help it , Mabel. It's that idiot Cora. He couldn't manage my old high school team. We knew how to play the game the right way. Not like these bums." Mabel: " I can't take it. I'm going out for a while." Matt: " Could you pick up some more Fritos? " Door slams.
