    EO-no.
  2. SPLENDIDSPLINTER
    EO-oh.

    JD livers!

    At least for Kike it wasn't a pop out. And it has been confirmed; Kike leads MLB in pop outs.
  5. SPLENDIDSPLINTER
    Funny how fast JBJ appears in the OF compared to how unfast he appears on the bases.
  6. SPLENDIDSPLINTER
    For Story Atlanta is the east coast version of Colorado.
  7. SPLENDIDSPLINTER
    hiSTORY in the making.

    In 1998 the SOX finished 2nd in their division and 22 games behind the Yankems.
  9. SPLENDIDSPLINTER
    From 2012 thru 2018 the SOX finished 1st in their division 4 times, finished last 3 times, and won 2 WS's. That 7 year stretch defined the term 'feast or famine.'

    Just checked on the internet. 70%.
  11. SPLENDIDSPLINTER
    Does anyone here have an estimate of the percentage of Fenway seats that belong to season ticket holders?
  12. SPLENDIDSPLINTER
    Well, to be objectively accurate it's 4 times. If you don't want to include the shortened Covid season, then that would make it subjective.
  13. SPLENDIDSPLINTER
    Depends on how bad the O's are. Btw, since 2012 the SOX have finished last in their division 4 times. So, this isn't exactly unexplored territory in recent history.

    Just finished watching SOX game after DVR'ing it. A few comments. When JBJ(who can't hit) is sent to the plate to replace a batter who can't hit, please use the term 'pinch-batter' not 'pinch hitter.' Strahm is the most consistent guy in the BP. Should give him more shots at closing. Twice today the Red Sox had runners on 2nd with no outs and in both cases they didn't score. This just reflects on how bad this line-up is. Finally, the word 'pathetic' by itself is descriptive enough, but in some cases that word alone is not enough. In the case of the SOX offense 'beyond pathetic' must be employed. And the BRUINS have tied the series with 'Canes today with Boston's two best defensemen out with injury and Covid. Nothing pathetic about the Boston hockey team.

    It's 12:28PM and this game is ovah. On to the BRUINS' PO game.
  16. SPLENDIDSPLINTER
    He peaked early. Not sure 'peaked' is the right word, but whatever he did , he did it early.
  17. SPLENDIDSPLINTER
    He's also the least of our solutions.
  18. SPLENDIDSPLINTER
    Maybe it would be a good idea for the FO to see if the Dodgers are interested in Story.
  19. SPLENDIDSPLINTER
    The main difference between Story and Sandoval is about 100 pounds.
  20. SPLENDIDSPLINTER
    The Red Sox wanted this game to be over before the 12:30 BRUINS PO game.
  21. SPLENDIDSPLINTER
    "Sunday mornin' comin' down."
  22. SPLENDIDSPLINTER
    Shitey job, but someone has to do it. Keuchel(1-3) vs Wacha(3-0) Hopefully the SOX can get 9 shutout innings from Wacha. Kike Story Devers Bogey JD VAZ Dugo Dalbec Arroyo
  23. SPLENDIDSPLINTER
    Excluding yourself, it probably is.
  24. SPLENDIDSPLINTER
    Btw, as SOX fans, most on this board should be more than aware of how badly most SOX long-term free-agent contracts have failed. If the SOX can build a competitive team thru their farm system, I'm all for it. It just might require patience. This being said, I'd love to see Devers playing for the SOX well into the future. Right now I'd say that's at a 50/50 chance.

    JH hired Bloom knowing Bloom's GM'ing history in Tampa. He wants Bloom to GM the SOX exactly like he GM'ed the Rays. Welcome to small-market baseball. JH probably feels that he bought the SOX 4 championships and now it's time for himself to make more money. How SOX fans reacts to this new type of management, well, I guess, time will tell. Note: Bloom's style in Tampa did make the Rays a consistently competitive team, but just never quite good enough to win a championship.
