  1. Hard to pitch for a team that thinks crossing HP causes cancer.
  2. I've already made an offer to buy the club. My complete collection of The Grateful Dead and my complete collection of The Replacements. I'm hoping to hear a response from JH.
  3. One run was enough; two runs was just the O's piling on.
  4. I'm sad Cora didn't accept the GM position.
  5. Good point. I was focusing on his offense, but you are correct. The time he saves at the plate he more than makes up for in the field.
  6. Story could become the SOX version of Ozzie Smith. A weak hitting, very good defensive SS with good speed. He'll just have to learn to do a back flip when he takes his position.
  7. Based on league BA's, a reverse shift should be used for most batters.
  8. Dugo will probably Begone during the off season.
  9. Masa is 5th or 6th in BA in the AL. More of a dis to the batters in the AL than a compliment to Masa.
  10. I may be wrong, but I seriously doubt Turner has a green light on the bases.
  11. Turner, or the manager, figured the O's catcher wouldn't throw to second with speedster Devers on 3rd. Turner, or the manager, figured wrong.
  12. With MLB so concerned with shortening the time of games, it should give an award to a player who has most contributed to speeding up the game. My vote would go to Devers.
  13. Can the SOX lose their last two? More than likely.
  14. Crawford vs Gibson Dugo Devers Turner Masa Duvall Abreu Story Valdez McGuire Tonight's game is on FOX. Can Devers reach 100 RBI? Stay tuned.
  15. Pivetta has been with the SOX 3 full seasons and I can't remember one time he wasn't available to pitch. I'd consider that an 'iron man.' Last 3 seasons starting in 2021; 31 games, 33 games, 38 games.
  16. Pivetta, the 'iron man' of the SOX, pitched a great game tonight. The man is a competitor.
  17. The SOX can still prevent the O's from having home field advantage if the O's play the Dodgers in the WS.
  18. With Turner probably not returning next season the SOX will have only two RH batters who present any threat at the plate at that point. I'm pretty sure the SOX will try to re-sign Duvall. The new GM will have to employ a lot of plaster to fill the many holes of this SOX team. Good luck with that.
  19. The only reason to watch tonight's game is to see how many more consecutive innings the SOX can go w/o scoring a run.
  20. Excuse me, but what the hell does playing the young guys have to do with Devers' lack of leadership qualities? Take a couple of deep breaths, MAX.
  21. Having the SOX start next season on a 10 game West coast trip is similar to beating a dead horse.
  22. Cora will be back as manager next season according to Sam Kennedy. It could have been worse, Cora could have been given an extension.
  23. But one cannot ignore Raffi's leadership qualities. Of course, I'm kidding.
