  1. The SOX have their 2 best pitchers lined up for tomorrow and Wednesday. Should be interesting.
  2. SOX LF's: Williams Yaz Rice Manny Not too shabby.
  3. But with all the distractions that go with the guy named Manny, no one worked harder at his craft I lost track of how many times Manny's grandmother died.
  4. Here's another Manny being Manny. Manny left Cleveland to sign with the SOX for a lot more money. So Manny has a conversation with both Bogey and Devers telling them that they should stay in Boston even if they have to take less money. IOW, Manny pulls a 'do what I say, and not a do as I do.' Ya gotta love Manny.
  5. When Manny was in the NESN booth the other day, he made a statement that if a player hadn't played for Boston or NY, he hadn't really played major league baseball. That may have been a little exaggerated, but I knew where he was coming from.
  6. No, just the fact that sometimes one has to tip one's cap to the opposing pitcher.
  7. Thank goodness that MLB allows teams to make trades. Can you imagine what the SOX would look like if they could only use pitchers from their farm?
  8. He might have been nervous. Coming up from the farm and pitching for the SOX is a whole lot different than pitching for Kansas City, for example.
  9. How come when Pivetta or Wacha dominate a team with their pitching, we never post how bad the opposing offense is? That's a question for the ages.
  10. He eventually did turn terrible, so forget I posted the above.
  11. They just beat Bieber; he's pretty good.
  12. Knowing the large number of crap teams there are in MLB, we're fortunate that the SOX aren't one of them.
  13. Although I would love to see the SOX not lose any more games the rest of the season, I seriously doubt that will happen. Just be happy knowing that they will be in the PO's where anything can happen.
  14. Seabiscuit was a hero during the great depression. But now we have a HR hitting horse named Judge.
  15. Seabold has been hittable, but for his 1st start against a pretty good hitting team he hasn't been terrible. Shouldn't give up on him too soon.
  16. Well, if good pitchers got beat a lot, they wouldn't be good pitchers. Fortunately, if one likes to see hitting, there ain't a hell of a lot of good starting pitchers in MLB.
  17. Never heard of a race horse named Seabold, but I'm very familiar with Seabiscuit.
  18. I'm guessing Story leads the SOX in hitting into fewest DP's.
  19. I love Jurgenson, but I was going with Sonny Siebert. He pitched for the SOX from 69-72.
  20. When a good pitcher has all his stuff working, he has the advantage. That's been true since the game was invented.
