When I see the SOX blunder on defense, the theme music from Curb Your Enthusiasm floats thru my head. BTW, curb your enthusiasm is a good way to approach the rest of the season.
Very good 5 by Crawford. Surprised he didn't start the 6th. Oh, well. Paxton is still the SOX best starter, but I've moved Crawford past Bello for 2nd best.
Ohtani wants to play for a team that will be a WS contender for a long time. He knows the Angels may have the worst farm system in MLB, so he doesn't see the Angels as being that team. My guess is, when all is said and done, Ohtani will end up a Dodger.
The Angels not trading Ohtani at the TDL will probably end up the worst decision their GM could have made. Their new pitching acquisition Giolito was rocked for 9 runs, all earned, in 4 innings today.
