Look at Ray Ray Run

How is it anywhere near the same? All players are staying in Canada and being tested when they come. Canada has controlled the virus. The players will live there and play there. The Blue Jays and teams they play would be traveling back and forth to a virus hotbed in the USA. In life, there are sadly consequences for poor leadership. This is just one example.

Dane dunning stuff will play if his command comes all the way back to as previously advertised.

If they rush the process, I think you'd be a fool to take it. Scientists have determined the process takes a certain amount of time, and accelerating that process artificially doesn't make me feel real good.

It's not that I'm skeptical that they'll get one - although I do agree since there has never been a COVID vaccine that expecting one as a guarantee seems odds - but I am skeptical about taking one if it's pushed out this year or even early next. The process for testing takes 18 months - that's what every doctor said before this and etc. If they push one out that means there wasn't adequate testing, and I'm not going to be this administrations guinea pig. It's sad that the lack of trust in the government has led to that thought, but I think you'd be batshit crazy to take anything that was pushed out in the next 6 months.

Jerry gets the respect he deserves for his loyalty to his employees and etc. To say he gets no love completely ignores that aspect; heck, he gets love for hiring a black executive in baseball, and a Venezuelan manager. There are good things about Jerry Reinsdorf, and I don't think many are arguing otherwise. When being critical of Reinsdorf, I always preface it by saying he could be a horrible person like the Ricketts - which to me, would make rooting for the Sox more difficult - but just because he's not them doesn't mean he doesn't have his faults. Fact is, Jerry has made tons of money with these franchises - amounts of money that people frankly shouldn't even be capable of making - but he is so business centric that he is the evil overseer when it comes to negotiations with players. His drive for collusion and etc among ownership groups is everything that is wrong with big business in this country and he deserves heaps of criticism for that. We get that it's a business, but at the same time it's a luxury. Jerry has made over 3 billion owning these teams, and while he has taken care of his own he really hasn't taken care of the fans in the same way. I get that to him they are just consumers, but it would be nice if the old man realized that those consumers made him filthy rich and he rewarded them for once instead of crying poor during a pandemic with 40 million out of work.

No way Robert should start the season hitting higher. The expectations and pressure, imo, are already absurdly high. I get the PR push but it's been a lot. No reason to put a ton of pressure in games on the kid early.

I'll say they score 304 runs; that's what i have.

Anyone know who is scheduled to pitch for the sox?

They'll just get bailed out like McCourt was by baseball.

Problem is the ownership groups defend each other and there are many groups that are in debt badly with purchases and etc and they are in trouble. If next year is in doubt too then there's a lot of teams over extended.

Operating for two years without any real revenue would be harmful for ownership; I'm not sure how anyone can argue that. The Sox have been one of the last teams to cry poor as I imagine their cashflow situation is better than most. Jerry has no debt, the team barely spent money years prior, and the expenses for this year weren't even that much. Jerry is still a leader of the shady owners trying to PR the players to death though. That said, stories like this, by Rosenthal, are ridiculous Maybe Dave Yoakum's not being retained because he didn't fit the direction of the team. Maybe advanced MLB scouts are being let go because you can't actually send a scout to another ball park this year.

Rodon said he was hitting 95.

Yeah, he looks awful. I think he's gotten about 6 swinging strikes since you brought up his stuff; in about 5 batters.

Lopez threw about 8 disgusting change ups immediately after he was declared finished.

He did say he was learning defensive drills from abreu which could explain his struggles.

Lol you and harold are in midseason form.

He saw a lot of great pitches, and looked like a first full year after being drafted guy for sure.

Haha, sure. I just think many of those who don't like benetti take the game too seriously themselves. Not all but many.

Benetti is fantastic. Those who don't like benetti, I dont really understand. Sox have one of the best play by play guys in sports

Thought his slider has looked great multiple times and his fastball needs to find its release but he was fine. He faced actual good big leaguers.

It was available, but now it's been taken down. You can still get county by county data, but that would take forever to set up a database to pull all the county data.

Isn't that exactly what he's doing?

And please look up the definition of communism. TIA.

What? Forcing them? You know what a demand shock is? People arent going out. People arent buying things. People lose jobs because revenue is down because a virus is killing people all across the country. The economy cannot repair itself until the public health crisis is fixed. When people like you start dying, we can start moving forward as a nation who gives a fuck about people again.
