  1. In a post the other day, I called a double shutout. hoping to be wrong
  2. Schlittler at 66 pitches for 4 innings. Going to get 7 from him unless Sox rally. Majority are 4 seam FBs. The book says Sox cannot hit FBs. something that was obvious early and late in season
  3. No wonder Willson gets hit but does not hit
  4. Schlittler K'ing 7 of 10 outs, laughable
  5. Tolle just under 60 pitches for 3, still a 5 inning pace, but that was a good sequence, so maybe into the 6th and see what happens
  6. Played a year of Framingham Flyer hockey mant moons ago, then my parents traded us to Pompano Beach
  7. Anthony is going to hurt himself on those check swings. Go ahead and swing the damn bat Could not do any worse
  8. Tolle on a predictable 5 inning pace Needs a quick inning next time
  9. Tolle is very hittable. and Abreu did not make a good throw
  10. Good thing Raffy hit that ball before it hit him.
  11. And Story got out of the way-- a win/win
  12. The main difference between Ben Rice and Roman is experience (more PAs) and ability to hit/pull a FB
  13. 100% of outs are strikeouts, but at least Cam threw 22 to get them
  14. Cam getting worked by Adley then a hit. He is looking much better
  15. Nothing new there, hope the ligament held up on the check swing
  16. Having to listen to Slob Costas already put a bad tone on this series
  17. Speaking of Crochet as the Sox #1 or #2 SP, I would think he will be IP managed if it becomes a full or near full season (150 games+) which implies 30 starts . A short 2027 could be an advantage to Crochet , maybe 20 starts ( 120 IP) Given his contract and the fact that he had to skip a year from his efforts in 2025, I think he will be carefully handled. Plus Garret's strength was power FB pitching with a hard slider . Despite skipping the WBC ( Thank You) , he broke down after 1 start in '26. Who knows if he can throw hard again for a full season , especially if rotator cuff irritation was any part of his issues. Brez really needs to sign Sonny Gray , and not put the full heat on Crochet until the Sox can see his durability and effectiveness.
  18. Tolle will go 5+ innings allowing 2-3 runs, Schlittler will go 7+ allowing 0-1 run. Fred will declare Game Over
  19. Starting Tolle in game 1 vs Cam Schlittler is an attempt to pull off a major upset as opposed to starting your best. mature vet, Gray.
  20. A desperate attempt to steal a game and /or insure that it goes 3. Sox may not score 3 runs in the 2 games.
  21. If Crochet shows some negative attitude if he gets left off the very short WC series roster , then I would be inclined to send him a personalized FU for taking an entire season to get his arm back in condition, . OTOH he did secure the Sox an Opening day win so there's that, just not much else
  22. No wins, inability to score runs
  23. MLB lives in NYC and wants them in the playoffs and WS
