Speaking of suspensions, I see our buddy Joe Kelly got slapped with an 8 game suspension. That would be equal to a 22 game suspension in a 162 game schedule.
Sorry you're missing the game, Swi, but if the SOX win, you do realize you can't watch another game until they lose. You know how superstition runs rampant here.
Kinda reminds me of the Daniel Bard comeback attempt with the Reds. Btw, I didn't realize Fauci threw a slider, but I'd heard his fastball looks like a pill.
I'd rather pitch for the Marlins than do jury duty. Much better benefits. After I pitched an inning I would go sit in the stands and stay away from the other players. Realistically, I wouldn't be capable of actually finishing an inning.
Boston's track record of acquiring baseball personnel who've started their careers with Tampa has not been very good. Crawful, Priceless, and now Bloom. Although it's obviously too early to judge Bloom. Maybe the SOX should avoid Tampa like the plague.
