All Activity

2005 my kids were living at home and Sox fans. Then they went off to college and somehow became Astros fans. Lucky for them I didn't have to call my attorney for a rewrite of my will tomorrow.

In hindsight it wasn't so bad losing the division and getting the Wild Card series. It got the Sox engines revved up and gave them confidence.

Totally different but it couldn’t help but remind me of El Duque against the Red Sox in ‘05. We all think of him as a hero now, but he wasn’t very good heading into that post season. If we rewind the tape to that game thread (yes, SoxTalk was around back then), fans were not happy about Ozzie calling him into the game. When I saw it was Kay coming into the game, I immediately texted my brother and dad wonder what in the f*** Will was thinking. While not as dramatic as El Duque’s ‘05 appearance against the BoSox, Kay came in as a similar underdog and handled business. Great call by Will….a lot of managerial feel went into that decision.

Looks that way. Who had Jordan Hicks and Chase Meidroth doing more for a Sox team in the 2026 postseason than Garrett Crochet and Roman Anthony?

Sox win, Cubs lose. All the evidence of God there could be

It is honestly insane. Dude could pass for not a day over 75.

Lookin pretty spry, can probably go another 10 or 20 years.

They probably won't though.

The Sox saying the fans are giving them energy almost feels like a slight on the Astros given their comments yesterday.

Probably one of the more impressive performances on ABS all year, and in the highest leverage games. I will just say make it 4 per game and call it good. Let the awful umps get demoted. But keep a little human element. It rewards skill on both ump and catcher.

And they won in ours, 2021. Fitting in that Houston will probably pass Chicago in population in the next 20 or so years. The rivalry builds.

Seemed like Teel saw the ABS zone like Neo in the Matrix this series. He was spot on on every challenge.

Yesss and HELL YES!! So pumped for Saturday. I just cleared my whole schedule for every day they play next week.

another mune interview: mune in heavily accented but understandable English: chases mide-rosses, he's a sow a good, [calls him small in japanese] but sooow good" don't have x on this computer but lol what a fucking guy.

Crochet in the game for Boston K's the first batter, but he reaches on a wild pitch

The Pope has convinced Jerry to convert!

Half the game threaders are going to have heart attacks strokes , seizures or brain aneurysms.

The Sox pitching staff has been running on fumes. Now they get a chance to be fully rested going into the Cleveland series which also includes a couple of days off. I feel good about the Sox chances this series.

No bad juju. Ron has rights until he doesn't. So far so good and I've had the guy on block for 3 years and he's been responding the entire time. I finally liked one of posts last night after a rare unhiding. Right now Ron is hot. We'll ride with him for at least one more.

This series is the first time I really thought Teel has a shot to be a star. For a catcher, he moves extremely well and it shows in his receiving too. Our pitchers had confidence to throw it in the dirt and Houston's paid a price. 5/5 on challenges too, just dominated in all facets. Also, kudos to the training staff and decision making there, they have him peaking after the unfortunate injuries. paging @ptatc

He won't be alone if they win another series

Ahem.

A resurgent Newcomb would be massive for this series.

Fire Getz still??
