Has anyone ever seen Yermin and Ron in the room at the same time?

This is their penance for letting Jim Thome go

No. Their beers are too meh to warrant that kind of attention.

Totally agree. And I wish the Sox would behave like this and I’m not sure, based on their apparent budget, that they don’t NEED to. The problem is that it takes balls that either: - most teams don’t have or - most fan bases can’t tolerate Rays seem to be super unique and have set expectations.

So let’s get more of that? #allthemediocrity!

Yes, they could. And could JR still be cheap? Hard to criticize a team that signs Michael Brantley when you’re stuck with Spanky Mc Gimpy.

Jerry Reinsdorf

Point taken for sure. Damn, pesky Sox fans ….

I would add: 5. Never, under any circumstances, turn the tv on after 5pm. Any “news” channel is no longer news at that point (most BARELY are before that) 6. Delete all your social media accounts

They're actually going to weave a statue of Eloy into the foul netting

So what is the unwritten rule when someone worse than a position player is pitching?

And got a high five from his manager

The other one for you to try would be Three Floyd’s Dreadnaught. Few times per year only, but you might be able to find some of the most recent batch still hanging around.

Now where did I misplace that tinfoil hat ….?

Two words: Lagunita’s Waldos Totally old school, west coast DIPA (they call it a triple). I wait until April every year, and every year I think “man, nobody makes beer like this anymore”.

Well that’s clearly your problem right there. I’m going to drive to KC buddy and introduce you to double IPA’s …….

Thanks for doing your part, Greg. I know you wrestled with this

Never heard that one before (#josecontrerassayshi), but if I’m remembering right wasn’t there a few whispers of PEDs as he walked out the door in St Louis?

Somebody can double check me on this, but since Jerry took over in 1981 (Sox have 6 post-season appearances) I believe the list of non-expansion teams that have fewer post-season appearances during that time is: Mariners and Royals. That's it. (Rox and Marlins have only existed since 1993 and Nats should include Expos over that same time period.)

And the Cubs were going to be a “dynasty”. I don’t know why I continue to be surprised by blindly over zealous fans. 2005 says hello. It’s baseball. It’s wacky. It’s unpredictable. If you get one good year savor it because chances are that’s all your getting.

It would make Robert even faster because there would be less drag from his newly installed little, tiny head.

All the best, my friend.

I hope not. Let the kids play.

Gordon Beckham, Nicky Delmonico, and Tyler Saladino say hi.

How is she doing? Hopefully arrow is pointing up.
