At this point, Jerry is willing to sink the ship in order to cling to the faint hope he was right.

This stuff about Moncada and Covid is so funny. Like fans would rather believe in Covid than face the idea that he might just not be that good.

The Sox FO is like the dog that caught the car.

The season is a Rhombicosidodecahedron

Cinched up?

I knew the tight baseball pants situation has been discussed, unresolved.

The final insult

Hopefully with a real starter in front of them. The Sox starting to collect middle infielders like DHs

I don’t want to play around. God bless Romy.

Again, just asking questions. But if Yolbert can’t get a callup now, may as well ship him out of the organization. JR is young, but old(er) minor leaguers aren’t often great either. OK then, bring up Romy. ?

Last time he was up he had a -.1 WAR and .616 OPS small sample size. I mean, fair enough he’s older fwiw. Just asking questions. Hopefully he does something.

You have him ranked over JR. Interesting.

You dont know? Theres a guy in Birmingham, who is actually hot right now. There’s a guy in Charlotte

There are “infielders”. That’s all Romy is. Infielder

So why is Romy better option than the rest of the usual suspects in the minors. I’m over Romy.

I’m exited for Leury

And Colas is raking from the left side like Frank Thomas in Birmingham. Lets goooo!

Anyway, Rizzo started his leg forward, but it sure looked like he intentionally dipped his knee into the pitch after that. That may have alerted the ump into making the call the way he did.

There’s a clear difference in the way Anderson came at the umpire to contact. Technically by the letter of the law there isn’t. I’d say after Rizzo got mad, he gathered himself to touch the ump in a calm way. They can call it the same if they want to. But there was a difference in the contact.

It’s hard to believe the season came down to Johnny Cueto, but it actually kind of did. Whoda thunk.

Shooting messengers does not help the problem, which does seem to exist.

I gave you a LaRussa for this post because the passion is admirable. You got spunk, kid.

Shane Riordan does not agree

Great questions. Personally I just think he is naturally gonna be a big guy, his body is changing as he gets older, and whether or not he attributes this to intentionally bulking up or not, it’s gonna happen. But yeah, it’s stupid to do it on purpose.

There will always be *reasons* for the dysfunction with this guy
