any update? delay it, like, 2 more hours and I'll be happy. oh there was an update in this thread. a minute from now. well dang. meeting canceled, let's play ball!

I'd be very surprised if they play this game. Pretty significant rainfall already and it's about to start back up again.

I thought he got off to a fine start, then he brought up Diddy for some reason, then he corrected that lady's Spanish pronunciation (while regularly mispronouncing Spanish), then he talked some trash about a guy who clearly knows more about baseball than him. The guy just seems slow. Who hired him?

hey guys, while the Sox are blowing this game, have you been keeping tabs on the developing feud between John Schriffen and Brian Bannister? developing since the third inning.

every pitch to Vargas was right down the middle. didn't swing. every pitch to Sosa was a sweeper a foot outside. swung at em all. should've punished Jax. Similar to Jansen a few games ago. that's probably the ball game.

Lenny is due for a 3 run shot

time to start buildin' around benny

robert has to get on base or the game is over...or touch all of the bases.

Baldwin's made 2 pretty nice plays at short.

schriffen is so annoying. "actually it's pronounced..." nobody asked you dude. over/under: 5 more diddy references this season

is the hitting coach actually doing something? "hardest hit ball" of Maton's career supposedly. someone else on this board was speculating that the launch angles look better. certainly the last hitting guy is on record saying "we don't do anything unless the player asks us to" so maybe just doing something is better than nothing.

lubob not wanting to be shown up...

are they brothers? they are brothers. the varlands.

Through 5, no runs...Where have I heard this before?

Vlad. Conversely "Don't Call Me Vlad".

Lenyn is gonna be the Jake Burger of 2025 minus being traded, hopefully.

says who? nobody thinks this

lol

it's either pseudo or it's against the rules. i'm going with the former. remember corked bats? that was a "clear advantage" until it clearly didn't do anything.

yeah I'm thinking "god dang, he's firing it in there" and the secondary stuff looks good. nice locations on the pitches. 5 more scoreless, bud!

he had correa fooled that entire at bat. crazy stuff

kudos to the grounds crew. it's hard work in bad conditions and they do a great job. we joke about "second winter" but the weather conditions have been wild lately. dumb and disrespectful story.

will a sox starter give up a run this season? 23 innings without an earned run.

Baldwin can be on the roster, but he shouldn't be playing over Sosa. "He's not good in a small sample size" is kind of beside the point, you can make the same arguments for any of his alternatives. You said the alternative was some old guy.

well the alternatives are Ramos (move Vargas) and Sosa.
