    A far cry from Orsillo and Remy. Youk is definitely the weakest link in the booth. He's never heard of the phrase 'silence is golden.'

    Max, whatever you're smoking please send me some. I don't know who's doing the opening game threads for the Rays, but he's doing a better job than me. Btw, the start of this season for the f'ing Rays(26-6) has to remind most of us of the '84 Tigers (35-5). The Tigers finished that season at 104-58; not as good as the 2018 SOX.
  3. SPLENDIDSPLINTER
    Gausman is unquestionably a top pitcher, but against the SOX he has one weakness; he's RH.
  4. SPLENDIDSPLINTER
    I can't predict the future, but the Betts trade for Dugo/Wong proves that a trade sometimes takes a few years to look good.

    They couldn't have done it w/o me. My agent is negotiating with Bloom as we speak. But seriously, I was watching a SOX program on youtube this morning and the talking head made a good argument that Wong is the best catcher in MLB. Wong has the highest defensive WAR number at 1.7 and his throwing out runners is at 42%. His total WAR is also highest of all catchers at 1.1. Also, his OPS+ is currently at 128. I guess he qualifies at this point as a pleasant surprise.

    Gausman vs Bello A win today moves the SOX into 3rd place in the AL East. Go SOX!

    The SOX definitely have a better offense than last year, so far.

    Hey, 700, have you noticed how many times the adverb 'hopefully' is employed on these game threads? I know it's the adverb I've used more than any other.
  10. SPLENDIDSPLINTER
    Clowns? I resemble that remark.
  11. SPLENDIDSPLINTER
    So you've never stayed at a Holiday Inn?
  12. SPLENDIDSPLINTER
    Good for him. He needed a confidence booster.
  13. SPLENDIDSPLINTER
    Good win! Go for the sweep tomorrow. Based on the weather, maybe I should replace sweep with mop up.
  14. SPLENDIDSPLINTER
    Well, that sucks. Hopefully, it's nothing serious.
  15. SPLENDIDSPLINTER
    I'm guessing Bra Man will be used under the same rules as a position player.
  16. SPLENDIDSPLINTER
    He got 3 hits tonight, so I believe he's above .130. That gimme hit makes up a little bit for being robbed of a GS by the wind.
  17. SPLENDIDSPLINTER
    Valdez has a nice hitter's swing. Level right thru the strike zone.
  18. SPLENDIDSPLINTER
    I remember when Duran 1st came up to the SOX. He was being compared to a young Grady Sizemore. Maybe that wasn't as funny as 1st thought.
  19. SPLENDIDSPLINTER
    Do we see Bra Man in the 9th? Maybe if the SOX can score a couple more runs.
  20. SPLENDIDSPLINTER
    I know, but I was worried he had snuck back on the team.
  21. SPLENDIDSPLINTER
    I hate 3 out innings when the SOX are winning.
  22. SPLENDIDSPLINTER
    I thought Ort was DFA'd back to the minors.
  23. SPLENDIDSPLINTER
    It's possible that Devers has been the worst hitter in the SOX line-up the last two weeks.
  24. SPLENDIDSPLINTER
    This run barrage, unfortunately, can't last all season, so let's just enjoy it while we can.
  25. SPLENDIDSPLINTER
    I was worried they weren't gonna get that 7th run tonight. I should know better.
