  1. It'll probably take a few years before Cora realizes that his 1st year of managing was based more on good fortune than on good managing.
  2. If this Josh doesn't work out, I'm sure the SOX have more Josh's.
  3. Josh Taylor? Didn't the SOX already have a Josh in the pen?
  4. Good news and bad news in one post.
  5. Actually, he's not even a kid.
  6. I'm pretty sure the SOX must lead the league in solo HR's.
  7. Well, he did enter the game with a 1.27 ERA. Hard to rag on a guy with a 1.27 ERA.
  8. Usually Weber grills last longer than this.
  9. And for how long before he's on the IL again. Always a gamble when one buys damaged goods.
  10. The dipshit ump was squeezing Weber but not Justin.
  11. Well, Weber still beats having a pitcher getting millions with a balsa wood arm.
  12. If the SOX really wanted to accommodate the Bruins and their fans, this game should have started at 4:10.
  13. I probably should have said the SOX minor league is a desert now.
  14. I said Weber came up from the minors, not that he was developed there. The SOX farm doesn't develop pitchers. Btw, my expectations are in check.
  15. It appears only you and me feel using Eovaldi as a closer is a good idea.
  16. The SOX farm system is a desert right now. They were lucky to get Chavis and Weber from it. Players like Nunez, Holt, and Pearce won't get the SOX the quality BP arm they need. Eovaldi has the make-up to be a decent closer and let's see how Weber performs today.
  17. The SOX BP has been mostly terrible, but Walden, Workman, and Barnes have been pretty consistently good so far.
  18. I like the idea of Eovaldi closing. Weber is starting today and he's been pretty impressive so far. This is a stretch, but if Weber continues to pitch well, he could be the #5 starter, freeing up Eovaldi to close. That, to me, is the SOX best scenario at this point.
  19. Maybe the SOX could sign Kimbrel on an appearance contract for the rest of the season. I know I've posted this before, but they could pay him a certain amount for each game he closes. I'm sure he's been throwing while unemployed, so he would probably be game ready in no time.
  20. I'm confused. Which 'not catch' are you referring to?
  21. Even if Betts caught it, the Guardians would still have scored one run, which would have been enough.
  22. Nah, it's just payback for everything that went right last year.
  23. What's even harder to take is that the Guardians gave the SOX a 2 run gift. Unfortunately, this gift did not keep on giving.
  24. You're fine. 700 was referring to the OP.
  25. The best thing I can say about tonight's game is Go Bruins!
