I think he is going to BREAK OUT this year in a big way! & there's the steal ALL-STAR year!

Hey, maybe he IS a different picher?

Thank GOD Hembree hacked off that mullet! At least he looks like a different pitcher!

It's sure taking on that feel EARLY ON in this 2018 season!

lol :0

What a f***ing at bat by Lin! 2 strikes, and he was ON that breaking off speed pitch!

HUGE & heads up hustle from JDM today. First getting to 3rd, & then going home on that passed ball.

Time get this bitch rained out! I'm not feeling a win today!

Yes. I've loved Holt. He can play anywhere in a pinch..... but it's Lin's time! We can really use his bat & glove in the IF right now!

Beni rising!

Come on Jackie! Make Cora look like a mad genius Or not. :'(

s***!

My hands would feel "just like 2 frozen water filled balloons."

I would be flat out NUMB! "Uncomfortably NUMB!"

I wonder if Sale is feeling "tingly?"

Fast!

Let's hope Bundy gets rained out! f*** this 32.5% SO rate! Probably 60% on a day like today!

Inexplicable!

LOL :0 No offense taken Hugh. Yes. I do think certain players can milk an injury for all its worth. Yes. I think David "milked" that thing way longer than need be. Sorry! Just the way I very clearly remember it. You honestly don't recall how that mysteriously re-emerged DIRECTLY after getting the s*** kicked out of him for the Eck thing, after hearing not a word about it before the day of his start? No worries. If you don't you don't. Do I doubt that he was not 100%? No. Do I think he took forever to come back from something he said was nowhere near the "issue" in ST? YEP! 100%. Just the way I see it. Still looking forward to his quick return!!!!

Frankly? No. His 'injury' came about SUDDENLY & DIRECTLY after the s*** HIT THE FAN with Eck. Again, it was pretty nebulous. Price said himself that it was nothing serious. He said it was not like the other injury.... yet it went on for ? ? ? 2 months? I've lost track of how long. Directly after the Eck explosion, Price misses his start AT THE LAST MINUTE. LITERALLY at the last minute, after hearing nothing about him even having a physical problem. Not even a whisper. He says later that day that it's nothing. No big deal. The s*** continues to hit the fan, and MANY question the timing after the dust up with Eck. Boston Sports Radio goes nuts with it. Sorry! To me it absolutely seemed like Price was subtly saying to Boston & Boston Sports Radio, "Fine. You wast to hammer the s*** out of me for this. Question me??? I'll show you injury. I definitely feel something not 100% right, and now I'm going to make 100% sure that I'm 100% before I come back!" Just my opinion, and that's exactly how I read it last year. Furthermore, There is zero doubt in my mind that Price was a negative attitude guy on this team last year. I believe it impacted too many of the young guys. I hope like hell he's got that 100% out of his system! If not, it may be time to trade him. Let's hope these 'injuries' go away, and he pitches his arss off the rest of the year! I want him back! We need him back. I'm a skeptical guy, but I'm always willing to give a guy a second, third, fourth, 10th shot. So long as he's in a Red Sox uniform. BUT . . . I won't hold back on what I'm really thinking in the back of my mind. No .... go get 'em Price! Love ya baby!!!!

But nobody is arguing about whether or not Kelly nailed him intentionally? Of course he did! Everyone knows that. It is the "common law" punishment for the intentional cleats up take out slide. We all get it. They get it. It had to happen, & it did. Not at the head, between the shoulder blades. Unlike last year's unintentional head shot at Machado. Kelly just happens to have a cannon, and it hurt like hell. A good spirited fight ensued. I'm missing the problem? I'm missing the argument.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=33uFpLiDNzQ What in the hell are we still arguing about? The cleats up & out at Holt was CLEARLY & INARGUABLY deliberate, and deserved a plunking! END of story! The "plunking" by Kelly was deliberate, and perfectly delivered. mlb 101. Mookie's slide has nothing to do with this! The fight was inevitable, & awesome! The punishment ? ? ? too much, and should be reduced to 2 games. Either way . . . Why argue? It was PERFECT!

I'm trying! I'm working the program.... Baby Steps! :0

Can I change my vote to ..... "He misses one start. or not . . . If he makes it & it goes badly, he takes a month off . . . ?

and last year? Look . . . I'm pulling like hell for the guy, but I'm not sticking my head in the sand. I've met most Red Sox players at one time or another, and Price certainly appears to be one of the .... "moodiest." He's got a MAJOR LEAGUE chip on his shoulder? I'm sorry, but from many a comment I've heard from him, he seems to have a hard on for Boston? He also seems ... last year especially .... to be THAT GUY with a ready subtle excuse when things go badly for him ? ? ? I won't pretend to get in his head, but he seems like a good time Charlie golfer, with a ready excuse? Having said that, we NEED HIM on this team! I WANT HIM on this team! We GO NOWHERE without him on this team. I admit to being ULTRA SENSITIVE to the ******** "anti-Boston" sports ********!!!!! and I see Price as buying into it a bit. I frankly don't buy the 'nebulous' injury ********. He's an emotional guy, and needs his arss wiped a bit. I don't have to wipe it here. ...... ok. Got that out of my system! Now.... go get 'em Pricey! I got your back!!!!!!! You may be a bit of a head case, but you're OUR head case!!! I got your back! I know it doesn't seem like it, BUT I love this guy WHEN he's with our team!
