Im not speaking to yesterday's game specifically. Im saying in general stop messing with his head, give him some consistency, and let the rest of the bullpen know their regular expectations. Be done with the game to game approach. Its not working.

Yeah, I got off track, probably a thought for another thread., my bad

I’m really not sure how David Clyde pitching in 1973 is an indicator that Bonemer can hit major league pitching in 2026.

David Clyde (18) was drafted #1 by the Rangers in the 1st MLB draft of 1973 in June. He started for the Rangers against the Twins on 6/27/73 . I think this was a disaster but I don't think calling up Bonemer would be the same.

"and announced a $2.05 billion equity investment from Oaktree Capital Management and SFS Group Capital LLC (an investment vehicle owned by the Ishbia family)"...that $2.05 billion trail will be important to follow as well Kirkland Advises Oaktree Capital Management on $2.05 Bill... "Has Mat Ishbia lost wealth in the value of UWM since he bought the Phoenix Suns? Absolutely. But while UWM has suspended its quarterly dividends, all shareholders, including the Ishbia family, enjoyed five years of those dividends at $0.10 per share. ***According to Bloomberg, between dividends and distributions, the Ishbia family has received around $6.2 billion over those five years.*** And Ishbia seemed his usual self when addressing the Two Harbors failed acquisition during the UWM earnings call, stating, “It definitely was unfortunate how it happened, and you’ll see some litigation, things that they did inappropriately. We’ll go through that process when that time comes.” The failed Two Harbors acquisition simply falls in line with Ishbia’s aggressive approach across the board and, ideally, proves to be akin to UWM’s version of the Kevin Durant trade - something that made sense but, ultimately, did not work. Bright Side Of The SunCould the struggles of United Wholesale Mortgage impact t...UWM’s difficult quarter has sparked concern, but the Suns’ financial outlook isn’t as simple as the headlines suggest.

“The lawsuit filed by UWMC is frivolous and raises serious questions about UWMC's public disclosures. TWO's previously released concerns regarding UWMC's intent and/or ability to close any transaction with TWO has now been thoroughly vindicated. UWMC's stock price has collapsed - it is down almost 70% year-to-date, after UWMC finally disclosed its $600 million derivatives loss, which had been rumored to have occurred since May 19, 2026. The loss highlights the dire condition of UWMC's balance sheet, liquidity and also casts doubt on its risk management and other governance practices. UWMC now says that this loss was related to a "hedge" of TWO’s MSR portfolio -- a portfolio that was already expertly hedged by TWO, not owned by UWMC, and under a binding contract to be sold to CCM. UWMC wishes the market to believe that its $600 million loss is related to a risk position that was approximately 13x the total interest rate exposure of TWO's MSR portfolio assuming it was unhedged, which UWMC knew full well it wasn't. UWMC's assertions that its now-terminated merger agreement with TWO was breached and that it has suffered damages is demonstrably false, and is consistent with its familiar refrain to blame others for its own shortcomings. As UWMC well knows, its stock-for-stock merger failed to secure shareholder support for several reasons, none of them having anything to do with TWO and starting with Mat Ishbia’s disastrous fourth quarter earnings call on February 25, 2026. At the time of the scheduled March 2026 shareholder vote on the UWMC all stock transaction, UWMC stock had declined so much that the value to TWO shareholders was approximately 20% below its book value. Indeed, it would be $3.29 or 70% below book value, if valued as of last night’s close. That, combined with skepticism about UWMC’s governance practices, caused ISS to recommend against the TWO-UWMC transaction. Those concerns seem well-founded today.” TWOTWO Responds to Baseless Claims by UWMC

It will be interesting to see what happens to Chase, Mateo would be a no brainer if Chase gets put on the IL .

Venable, Hudson, Taylor all contributed to the loss. Taylor had a chance to get out of the inning with 1 run scored and coughed it up. Offense went to sleep early and never woke up. Burke get screwed again.

I didn't realize he was a hulk. If the Sox get this guy going with the bat it will be a welcome site.

Remember politicians and billionaires just want to make the rest of humanity happy.

Keep the faith.

You’re saying use Taylor in the ninth just after he failed in a high leverage situation in the eighth. Guy has a halo for no apparent reason.

The older people get, the more evident the impact of prolonged lead exposure is on their brain.

One of those string of games again?

If the Sox take this series and then sweep the Tigers, they’ll still likely only be about 4.5 games up in the division and Soxtalk will still panic. But… I may reconsider the Divine question.

The Tigers & Cubs series are going to tell a lot about this team . really need to take the next 2 games going into that.

What the hell? This is from 3 weeks ago. Is this guy unwell?

Duh - I forgot who you were talking to 😆

I was knocked unconscious once, and woke up about couple hours later in surgery prep. Trust me, You slip into nothingness way before they put you into the ground

He runs around the bases like a giraffe apparently.

Apparently Burke is throwing against Detroit on 4 days rest.
