Castellanos doesn't have a position.

I doubt it. But I also think he probably occupies a similar place in Sox history as Ventura (as a player), who obviously wasn't quite the hitter but played great defense at a valuable position. Ventura's number wasn't retired--though I hadn't realized nobody has worn it since he left as a manager. Interesting...

Thank God we have an Abreu thread now.

This time a decade ago the Sox were wearing the black tops for well over half of all games. I then got the impression that someone noticed and said something, because they then went back to using it as an ALTERNATE rather sparingly. Last year or two it's been all black all the time again. I just don't understand why you'd wear them more than once or twice a week when our whites and grays are both so good.

So who is Ron!?

This is maybe a WELL ACTUALLY, but maybe important if eventually you press charges--what you're describing is larceny/theft. Robbery refers to taking something directly from someone's person by force or intimidation.

The Sox are the only one of the charter franchises to never play in the postseason in consecutive years, and have the fewest postseason appearances amongst those teams as well. They're definitely in the conversation.

The only thing I care less about than college basketball is college football, so I'm aggressively ambivalent about Walton. Mike Schur on the Saturday, though, is a (Ken) Tremendous proposition.

Seriously, a sustained period of competitive baseball and multiple postseason appearances is enough for me. I've thought since the beginning that I don't think the Sox need to win a championship for the rebuild to be deemed a success. We did the one-off World Series win already.

You won't have a choice. This is a FOX-exclusive national broadcast.

Heresy =/= hearsay. Unless you think Eaton is divine.

Incredible. I've been a Spurs fan since '07 (got to watch Champions League football there in 2010--the famous 3-1 win over Inter), and I never thought this would happen. Still in disbelief.

Yup. Regression doesn't denote things getting better or worse.

I guess so. I'll just stay in tomorrow anyway and watch baseball on TV. Last day of the Extra Innings preview on DirecTV.
