Coach Q just pulled a Bud Kilmer from Varsity Blues and left the starters in until the very end of the game. 28-6 Brother Rice. First win over Loyola for varsity BR since 2018. This team is legit.

BR is blowing out Loyola now. BR is for real. Lockdown defense, healthy strong OL, and a competent QB that can throw it and also burn a team for a 75 yard TD run, which he actually did tonight. They need to swap their team rankings. Pre-game had BR at #6 and Loyola at #4. BR >>> Loyola.

Jerry just doesn’t care, and hasn’t for awhile.

Shut it, nerd! 😉

You may not like Sciambi, as I am not a fan of his delivery, but there’s no doubt he does a ton more legwork and research prior to games than Schriffen does. He shares a ton of analytics and information that would basically make Schriffen respond with **crickets**.

Stone is the old man that sits on his front porch and yells at anyone who accidentally steps on his grass. Except he does it via trolling his co-worker and random people online via his Twitter.

Sox down by 5 runs. Schriffen: “Do you give him the 3-0 green light here?” 🤣 So true about Stone needing to be engaged and pushed to do his job by a good partner. Otherwise, he will just coast. Seems like Jerry has given him a job for life and he knows it.

More like the majority opinion.

That’s around what I was seeing. Slightly higher according to this site… https://www.tankathon.com/mlb TRU was very unlucky in his sims. Hopefully that doesn’t happen.

That seems like a bad simulator. Shouldn’t the Sox have the best chance at the #1 pick with the Rockies being ineligible, as well as the Nationals and Angels? Seems like the Sox should have been simmed to win it at least once, if not more, with their odds.

That 2008 D. Rose NBA draft was a lottery as well. Bulls had only a 1.7% chance at the #1 pick! Let’s hope for some collusion and that Manfred feels sorry for Jerry and his pathetic team! 🤣

Maybe the MLB will feel sorry for Jerry and the Sox like the NBA did for his Bulls and gift them the #1 pick, a la Derrick Rose?

LOL. New nickname…

I’ve noticed that Jeff Agrest is the best journalist in Chicago. He’s probably making chump change with the Sun Times but everything he publishes is dead on. From calling out the morons on WSCR 670 The Score like Riordan and Bernstein to asking why Schriffen even has a job. Dude is spot on, all the time.

Chris, your current team still blows because you are a bad GM and they are about to lose 100+ games. Even a 20 win improvement over last season won’t be impressive considering you set the MLB record for losses last year. Give it up, Chris.

Or calling 450 foot homers like they are wall-scrapers. 🤣 Amazing that Jerry was apparently concerned with how Benetti ate a Campfire Shake during the broadcast but he doesn’t care how clueless Schriffen makes himself look on a daily basis as long as he bows to the great Stone Pony. The guy made a joke about smoking a glizzy at both ends along with Bacon, a la “Lady and the Tramp”. WTF?!?

He needs to leave and try to get an NBA gig somewhere. It’s obvious that basketball is his true love. When you are a true fan of a sport, you do your research on it. I guarantee you he would have no problem spitting facts left and right about the Knicks or Bulls. He just isn’t much of a baseball fan and has barely any Sox knowledge.

Is there really enough room there for a modern baseball stadium plus more?

Jerry is likely still futiley working on getting a taxpayer-funded stadium before he agrees to chip in with the Fire.

I missed the game in which Schriffen did the hot dog / “Lady and the Tramp” bit with Beckham referenced in the article… wow. 😲 Schriffen also said it to the same guy who drew a sentence with his foot in the infield to make fun of his former teammate Getz during his playing days. Obviously Schriffen probably didn’t even know that bit of Sox history but what an awkward joke to make regardless.

Yep, it’s a CarMax. And not only are those three not top suburbs, but they are quite honestly crime-ridden dumps, no offense to anyone that lives there. May as well move the stadium to Stinkney at that point. Smell some delightful wastewater along with your polish and grilled onions.

$1.5 million for a 7.94 ERA in 5.2 major league innings ain’t half bad… for Clevinger that is. That’s over $250K per awful inning of work.

I think the starting OF for 2026 is already set — Benintendi, Robert, and Tauchman. They will probably sign a right-handed platoon/fourth outfielder again but he will be much worse and much cheaper than Laureano, more like Austin Slater 2.0. They will probably be banking on B. Montgomery coming up later next season. The big sell job on the Sox spending money this upcoming offseason will be Getz giving Robert his $20 million dollar option. But I doubt there will be a single free agent signing that is more than Martin Perez money.

Some posters here thought they would spend a bit last season (at least more than they ended up spending) because Eloy and Moncada would be finally coming off the payroll. Also, even more posters expected them to spend more next offseason since the payroll will be even lower. I think that money is mostly going to Robert in hopes that they can finally get something for him, along with a few veteran scrubs.

This paragraph was worse, IMO. 20 more wins than a team that set a record for losses? While it may end up becoming true, talk about some hollow praise. As if potentially losing 100+ games again is some sort of accomplishment. This is some big time fluff by the Doobster…
