  1. The diagnosis on Kluber was bone spurs.
  2. Probably one of those crime family doctors; they'll sign anything.
  3. Does anyone here have Medina on their fantasy baseball team?
  4. Ort:"I didn't even know I was injured. What's your story Kluber?" Kluber: "Bloom called my cell phone and told me I was injured. I had no idea."
  5. The two main things I remember about Middlebrooks are !) his 3 HR game in Toronto; almost hit a 4th, and 2) he was dating that very hot blonde who worked for NESN at the time and did on field interviews.
  6. Using these extreme adjectives on the SOX; what adjectives would you employ for the A's? I mean 'atrocious' is pretty hard to top.
  7. Casas hits an at'em ball, which is less effective than a dunk in the OF. Baseball isn't a fair game. You don't always get rewarded for doing things right.
  8. Oakland A's baseball was once referred to as Money Ball. I doubt they have a name for this s***.
  9. I'm pretty sure they're not locked in before handing it to the chUMP.
  10. The SOX posted their line-up later than usual, so I'm guessing Cora was aware of the pitching change.
  11. For the last few years I've stopped watching the ASG. This year I'll watch it even less.
  12. A's going with BP game after earlier posting Medina would start.
  13. Playing back-to-back series against the best and worst offenses in MLB is probably rare.
  14. I watched a youtube video earlier regarding the career of Dwight Evans. I believe most here know that he led MLB in HR's during the decade of the 80's. What I didn't know was he also led MLB in extra base hits during that same period. 385 HR's and 2500 hits along with 8 Gold Gloves. Seems like HOF numbers to me, but then I didn't get to vote.
  15. In the last few games I've noticed Duvall has been making better contact. I expect he will start putting up some good numbers as the season wears on.
  16. In comparing Arroyo's offense to Kike's I found this: Arroyo's OPS=.657 Kike's OPS=.616 Arroyo's OPS+=75 Kike's OPS+=65 Both OPS+ are way below the league average of 100. Defensively I would give Arroyo the nod over Kike at 2nd base. However, Kike is making 10 Mil and Arroyo is not.
  17. I'll have you know I do not sit in an armchair during SOX games. I'm no 'armchair quarterback.' When I'm not sitting on a stool to post my super intelligent observations, I'm laying on the couch. I guess that would make me a 'couch quarterback', who generally go higher in the draft than the armchair ones.
  18. Duran(LF) Turner(DH) Devers Duvall Dugo Kike Casas Wong Chang
  19. Medina(RH) vs Bernardino Obviously a BP game for the SOX. Let's hope the offensive momentum from last night will carry over to today's game. I'm guessing Alfaro will catch tonight. Go SOX!
  20. The SOX have to sweep the horrible A's, but with only one of the 3 games having a starter and the other two being BP affairs it won't be as easy as it normally would. I'm guessing the SOX are the only team in MLB who presently only have 3 starters. Although it is quite possible Pivetta will transition to a starter in one of those 2 games.
  21. I've always said if one isn't sure who to blame, just blame Max.
