I don't know if there's a limit on the number of post react options, but I wouldn't be mad at a 💯 react being added

Love your outs to go countdown !

Feels like Taylor is too much of a multi inning weapon now pretty much anywhere from the sixth inning on. Will see how his arm rebounds after these two lengthy appearances...hopefully they don't need him until WED, but would be awful tempting for Venable to use him again if they get another lead on Mon. If this opener strategy works at least through CLE to reach the ALCS, it's likely going to become their niche, and just not certain if it stands up over 162 games with Hagen and Taylor throwing as much as they are... Perhaps they follow the Padres' model and add the elite reliever and then work backwards from there to shorten the game. Let's say signing Morejon, for example. Wouldn't JR rather bring in 2-3 elite bullpen arms and pay them $30-35 million combined than one Skubal at $40+? Is this also a place where Ishbia might get involved to put them over the top? No idea!

Just so unfazed heading into the biggest games of most of these guys' careers. Mune has been teaching the guys the Japanese idiom "Baka wa kaze o hikanai" which roughly translates to "idiots don't catch colds" The idea is that sufficiently naïve people are effectively immune to the stress and symptoms of minor illnesses, because they're simply too carefree to get bogged down worrying about it. Fitting.

Hire the guy who is calling the games in this series. And let Stone retire. I thought Blum was more insightful and objective than Stone.

Yep. He basically just started stealing Bernstein’s schtick of ripping the team once he started partnering with him on The Score. He’s a hack anyways.

Thank you for posting that!

If Colson, Mune, and Vargas all get hot, the Sox just may go all the way if the pitching doesn't implode. Bi "if" I know, but anything is possible.

It's the playoffs, which have always been about riding the hot hands. You can't get swept, then come back strong next series.

Someone subtitled it on Reddit if you're curious:

It was probably easier for those Sox fans to get tickets to the ALDS games in Cleveland than in Chicago.

The 3rd and 4th innings had my heart rate elevated. Thanks to Grant my pumper settled back down for the rest of the game.

I will go with a Barista at Starbucks for not putting in an extra shot of pumpkin in his coffee.

There's so many ways they can go with this. It's not unrealistic to see all these guys deserving some role in it: Taylor, Smith, Fedde, Kay, Burke, Martin, Sandlin, Shane Smith, Thorpe. I'd be thinking smart to sign a FA, of which there are a good number this year, and then trade from depth -- maybe even for prospects -- refresh the system a bit. Fedde is a FA but I'd imagine he's keen to stay on. Newcomb I think they let walk as they can't really justify him if he's not starting. But I dunno, there's an argument at the right price. We'll see how it shakes out, certainly looks intriquing, if not proven. And if they add a nice FA arm, potentially a very good staff.

Don't stop now boys!

KEEP IT ROLLING BOYS!!!! HUGE!!!!! TAKE IT TOMORROW AND SEAL THE DEAL AT HOME IN GAME 3!!!!!!!! DO IT FOR DON!!!!!

Don't stop now boys!

Benneti was annoying. Love his story but annoying as f***. Let him whine with the tigers

Nah not him. He PUBLICALLY gave them up very vocally. He became a Padres guy.

He's a clown like most sports talk hosts but in this case we'll allow any and all bandwagon jumpers.

the Red line and Dan Ryan solves a lot of logistical problems for fans. I would love for that to happen over the suburbs

Nice find that was cool. Even tho I have no clue what they saying 😭😭😭😭

What an incredible win. Listening to the score on the way home from work and why the f*** are they trying to pretend that Lawrence Holmes didn't completely abandon the Sox for a few years?
