You better make sure Jerry Reinsdorf doesn't know where you live if you're going to propose such a massive increase in roster size and salaries.

Billy Hamilton would certainly be in favor. He'd get paid a whole lot more.

Hopefully this isn't a rerun of the 1st inning.

Engel has managed to get two very good pitches through for hits.

He said he didn't mind it when he was in the NL and batting every time he pitched, but in the AL he hates having to do it just for one or two games.

If Hernandez gets on, will Tony make him bunt or let him hit?

At least TA made Hendricks throw 7 pitches before he grounded to short.

Looking at the radar this is a really small cell moving over the north side. Shouldn't last more than 10-15 minutes.

I think Sheets goes down when Robert is back, and I think Lamb gets some starts before the end of August when the Sox will ultimately decide whether Lamb or Sheets gets that LH bat spot on the playoff roster. I think Hamilton stays on the IL until rosters expand and he becomes the 14th position player on the playoff roster when they can cut back to 12 pitchers.

Just looking at the starting pitchers and the lineups, this should be a 1-0 game, so of course it will end up being 11-10.

If I'm the Royals I'd rather bring in a lefty to pitch to Moncada-Engel-Garcia than leave in the righty to face Moncada-Goodwin-Sheets

That would require being ahead, and being ahead requires scoring runs.

I don't remember anybody other than me suggesting they get a catcher.

Lopez has done well since getting the callup buy why is he pitching in the 7th inning of a 1 run game?

Yes.

Cleveland just lost so the Sox can't possibly win tonight.

He's also walked a couple really bad hitters. He's not been as bad as many have said, but this isn't exactly a gem either.

If not then all my mail has been addressed incorrectly.

That was less of a swing than Dozier.

First 1st inning run in forever.

Cleveland gives up 2 runs and not more than 5 minutes later the Sox give up 2. It's like there's a force connecting them.

They just did a bullpen day followed by an off day so that got everybody 2 extra days rest. They'll probably do that again 2-3 more times.

Also, April is the most likely month to have rainouts, so you want as many division games as possible because they are easier to schedule makeup games.

Why would Leury play LF and Vaughn RF? Doesn't make sense.

I posted this in last night's game thread so today is now the 10th day. Gonna keep posting this until it's no longer true.
