    Sneaky Kike!
  2. SPLENDIDSPLINTER
    The SOX this season blew one axiom out of the water. The axiom being that to make the PO's a team needs good starting pitching and good defense.
  3. SPLENDIDSPLINTER
    Houck and Whitlock are both shining lights for the pitching future of the SOX.
  4. SPLENDIDSPLINTER
    Dugo is showing that he's gonna be a special SOX player going forward.

    If you can make yourself believe that Sale will be the old Sale next season, maybe it will make the off season easier to take.
  6. SPLENDIDSPLINTER
    Compared to Sale, E-rod wasn't that bad last night.
  7. SPLENDIDSPLINTER
    Well, the SOX did beat the Yankems. Better than nothing.
  8. SPLENDIDSPLINTER
    Two runs; should have been more, but it's infinitely more than they scored last night.

    Speaking of baseball announcers, Orsillo is doing the Braves/Brewers game today. I like Orsillo.

    Ned Martin, imho, was also very good.
  11. SPLENDIDSPLINTER
    He was in a class by himself. The man had a memory like a computer.
  12. SPLENDIDSPLINTER
    The Bogey/Jeter comparison is spot on. Both had good hands and limited range and both, obviously, were/are very good hitters.
  13. SPLENDIDSPLINTER
    Social distancing has never been a problem at the Trop since day one.
  14. SPLENDIDSPLINTER
    I thought 8 PM starts during the week were because it's prime time and the price of commercials are higher. Never exclude the money angle.

    Baz being a RH pitcher may have Cora putting Schwarber at lead-off tonight. If JD returns to the line-up, most likely Schwarber will play 1st base. One note of concern for the SOX is that they've never faced Baz and usually that favors the pitcher. But 'usually' doesn't mean 'always' so who knows?
  16. SPLENDIDSPLINTER
    You're welcome, MAX. 7 PM is much more sensible than 8 PM.
  17. SPLENDIDSPLINTER
    Btw, tonight's game will again be televised on FS1 starting at 7:02 PM. Sunday's game at Fenway will be televised on the MLB network starting at 4:07 PM.
  18. SPLENDIDSPLINTER
    True. The SOX didn't win 93 games because of speed. Speed kills and usually the SOX are the victim.
  19. SPLENDIDSPLINTER
    By the time Zim reached Pedro, Zim was already exhausted and probably would have collapsed on his own w/o any help from Pedro.

    Florida is about golf, Mickey Mouse Land, football, and dying. In fact, it's appropo that the Rays play their games in a mausoleum.
  21. SPLENDIDSPLINTER
    Max, why didn't you blame Cora, who should have removed the shift with a fast runner on 3rd? It's alright to sometimes blame Cora. He's not god, oh wait, nevermind.
  22. SPLENDIDSPLINTER
    They've always been well-managed under Cash. The Rays have, imho, the best analytics in baseball and Cash uses them to a tee. He doesn't manage with his gut; he strictly goes with the numbers.
  23. SPLENDIDSPLINTER
    Neither the SOX or the Rays are going to win the WS. At this point it appears the Rays will linger longer, but in the end it will be a failure by both teams. The SOX in recent years have been successful 4 times. The Rays have the smallest payroll.
  24. SPLENDIDSPLINTER
    Ted Williams probably would have hit 700 HR's if he had swung at pitches an inch out of the strike zone.
  25. SPLENDIDSPLINTER
    Must score tomorrow. Baby steps.
