The good news is Ishbia's are getting a bargain. He'll increase the value of the franchise. We're so stuck in our own miserable Sox present we refuse to envision a promising future because SOS ( same old Sox) has become ingrained in our brains as a comfortable pain.

Im prepaid Android ATT if I use my Verizon Wifi .Soxtalk wont work. Once I turned the Wifi off it worked. I had previoysly cleared the cache but still couldnt get it. Even now itll still flash the cant reach the website before it connects to it . I might need a new phone from Verizon so I can have my phone and internet on the same network and see what Verizon will offer me.

Hill had a true Superman diving catch in RF . Ran a long way full speed, dove full speed, caught it head first full layout , slid on the grass 10-15 feet into foul territory.

No one can say for sure how much power Getz had in that position. To automatically assign him blame is just getting angry because he convinced JR by being cheap and inexperienced that he wanted the job. You'd think you'd be able to see how different things are now but if all you can see is the losses and Getz had a key position under a malfunctioning front office then that's all you're going to see until the record gets respectable. It's already trending that way but they started a lot lower that 2024 season. . They had to wait until 2025 to really get some of the young guys in the lineup. I wonder if Houston fans were this blind. During the Sox 1st rebuild everyone was gung ho even though they left the same guys in charge who screwed it up in the 1st place.

You'd think it wasn't a rebuild by the way everyone is concerned about the losses. The problem with the last rebuild is they didnt lose enough and never got top picks unless you count Madrigal and Vaughn. They also had less veteran guys to sell off because they dropped so precipitously that no one was worth anything. Anderson, Moncada, Kopech, Eloy, Giolito all went downhill in a short period of time. JR was spending a lot more per season then even during the rebuild so Hahn would spend it on Melky Cabrera and others so they lost 100 once. Also there was no draft lottery but the Sox got the #1 pick this year but have had much better drafts although its still kind of early to say for sure. But even after playing 20 rookies last year they still had 5 guys in the top 100 and a couple more just outside it and also Antonacci who sprang up pretty fast. The Astros lost 106, 107 & 111 from 2011-2013 then 92 in 2014. After that they started making the playoffs regularly. They drafted very well and unlike the Sox they didn't have to rebuild their international connections. Starting in 2017 they made the playoffs 8 straight years and were constantly in the ALCS and won 2 World Series

I'm on my desktop now because I haven't been able to get Soxtalk on my phone. I have no idea why. I can get all other websites,. I keep getting address not found. The browser could not find the host server for the provided address. Wont work with Firefox or Chrome. Any suggestions ?

Korey Lee has had some good ABs this spring. Hasnt struck much either.

Colson & Hayes have the HR lead now with their 3rd HR of the spring . They were tied with 4 others. Antonacci also has 3 but 1 was in the WBC.

thanks I was just doing play by play forgetting I had swtiched threads for a post.

strike 3 for me

Minute by minute by minute by minute , we keep holding on. Doobie Brothers.

oops again.

oops

Hays single, Pereira K, Hays out at 2nd on catchers interference. Wade Line out to 1st.

Colson HR ! 107EV 362ft 1st pitch.

Korey Lee having a nice hitting spring , had a double but did not score.

1, 2,3 2nd for Kay .8 pitches 6 for strikes. 1K. Change up and sinker particularly effective.

Pereira 1st hit is a single .Steals 2nd.

Hays 3 run HR ! Meidroth walk, Colson single. 99EV 387 ft.

1,2,3 1st for Kay .4 seamer 95-97. Also throwing sinker, slider, sweeper, changeup acvording to gameday. 10 pitches 7 strikes.

He hurt himself running the bases. A DH has to run the bases.

Didnt mean to sound overly harsh. Just stated the facts as I see them. I take every bold prediction they way they were meant to be taken. I give bold takes year round . I have high hopes for lots of guys . I could include 15 guys or more in bold predictions or say the Sox will be above . 500 and it wouldnt be far from what I actually think.

He better get his ass in gear then. Right now hes a long shot to make the opening day roster and likely to get claimed on waivers and be playing for another team.

Amen

Antonacci looked very good in the field and the bases too. Meidroth is going to have to perform or Antonacci takes his place once the Sox get the extra year of service time.
