  1. I believe Lee Smith is the answer to the NESN trivia question.
  2. Is anyone here old enough to remember when players feared and respected their manager?
  3. OK; I guess there's no reason to hustle when 'it doesn't matter.'
  4. Sale can't complain about his schedule so far; the O's and the Rangers. Too bad his next scheduled start isn't against Arizona. The perfect trifecta.
  5. Great hustle there by Bogey.
  6. Nice 'D' by the Brockstar.
  7. Actually, JD prefers playing in the OF. He considers himself an all-around player. I'm not gonna burst his bubble; he's a strong dude.
  8. Schwarber, obviously, would be a perfect DH for the SOX next season, but with JD coming back, oh well. Best case scenario is Schwarber playing 1st next season, if the SOX can re-sign him.
  9. Never liked that guy and he was slower than a snail caught in an oil slick.
  10. OTOH, could the SOX have won the championship in 2018 w/o JD? He did have a very good year.
  11. The SOX FO got a WS out of JD. I guess most GM's would be happy if a player they signed for 5 years and 100 million helped them win one WS.
  12. Speaking of SOX 1st basemen, Ortiz, who mainly played 1st base when the SOX had an interleague game on the road, never embarrassed himself at that position. In fact, he was pretty damn good at it.
  13. The fact that Arroyo is just working out should be concern another injury is on the way.
  14. Money Ball has proven a low-budget team can be competitive during the regular season; it hasn't proven that team can win a WS.
  15. I agree with that, but I also believe the SOX lost because they suck.
  16. I respected Manny as a great hitter and was in awe of how many dead grandmothers Manny had.
  17. Back in the 60's there were consequences if a player didn't hustle out a grounder. Thses days, not so much.
  18. This is true, but I was referring to the rest of the season.
  19. The movie THE FUGITIVE included a helluva train wreck.
  20. Good point. I was just attempting to reduce the pain of the SOX not reaching the PO's this year.
