every inning every day. Cal Ripken, Jr.

They say they are algorithms that take a bunch of stuff into consideration. They've named some of them but I'm not remembering it all. So all you people who are into advanced metric are all of a sudden doubting their algorithms without having any idea what exactly goes into it just because it looks weird ?

Light years ?Statcast OAA say they both catch more than they are supposed to in CF with their Success rate higher than their expected success rate. Looks pretty equal to me.

Eh I don't know we've seen Robert dropping routine fly balls

Minnie Minioso ?

You're right . Proactive , preventive medicine , like they should 've been doing with Rodon last season !!!

When he gets hurt everyone will be like I told you so, but I'd have taken him back in a heartbeat. QO then sign him asap in the off season if Boras wouldve allowed it .

Rays would hold onto him and replace Moncada with him as soon as Moncada got expensive and trade Moncada for more better minor leaguers .Of course I'd probably trust the Rays scouts than ours .

Those inning under his belt last year helped a lot.

Which is why you see the inside fastballs and high fastballs to our righties . It's harder to drive that inside pitch to the gap in right than it is the outside pitch when so many of our RH hitters go oppo and up the middle.

1 HR and 3 warning track flyballs that inning. Rasmussen wasn't exactly fooling anyone.

Yeah maybe I'm just old school but I really don't own any Apple products except an Ipod Touch 6th Generation and have had itunes forever when a lot of younger people have some kind of radio app or other ways to get music besides itunes. but I always liked loading my many CD's into itunes so it was a seamless transition for a movie lover like me to also include Apple TV among my movie apps on my smart TV.

Burger !!!!!!!!

Cease pitching real good !

SO the Sox scored a run with a combo of Sheets and Vaughn . Is everyone so conflicted about it that no one said anything about it ? ?

I'm an older folk and I don't pay for cable or anything else. My son shares his Google Play account with me , I share my Apple TV account with my daughter, My daughter shares her Disney + account with me and I got a friend who shares her Netflix with me. Then I have MoviesAywhere and Vudu. Then I just wheel and deal for movie codes to share those movies with my son and daughter on Google play and Apple. I might be the outlier though among the older crowd.

I would've thought that anyone into streaming movies on places like Moviesanywhere and Vudu would have Apple TV /iTunes anyway as another choice for streaming movies since there are certain movie codes that redeem on Apple TV . Most of the very early codes did and certain recent ones like the Bond Movie No Time to Die, Apple was the only place to redeem the digital code found.

LOL Yea I tried to explain it like Harold wanted, as if he was a 4 year old ! That's why I had to edit it a few times because I thought ,oh crap I left this part out.

Read my last 2 posts in this thread. I think I explained at all pretty well after several edits ?

It's also pretty simple as long as your TV is capable of getting the Apple TV app. I have an Android TV and I could still get the Apple TV app and I watched the game last week on it for free. I didnt need an iphone at all because I don't have one. It's very helpful though to have an itunes account. SO I used the same itunes email address and password I used to set up the Apple TV app on my smart ANdroid TV.

Yes u can and for free as long as u have the apple TV app on your smart TV. When u go to the Apple TV app you will see an Apple TV+ tab at the top . Just click on that tab and find the game. Very easy.I tested it last week on the 1st game. If u don't have an Apple account just set one up on itunes from any computer and use the same email and password to set up the Apple TV account. However I am in California so I know nothing about blackout rules if you are in Chicago.

Mine , too. RIP Joe(l) ?

Injuries: Moncada, Pollock, Eloy. Full day off for Harrison (back issues) ,1/2 day off Abreu. Our depth is better than last year. Our backup catcher is much better defensively. Sheets we get from the start of the year. Our backup OF ,Engel, is healthier atm. Burger, at this time last year, wasn't even on peoples minds to play in MLB. This is how you manage when there are injuries.

Maybe , just maybe, Vaughn hasn't started a game at any position in the field since he hurt his hip diving in RF . Maybe TLR is just being extra careful with Vaughn and early indications are that he is being handled carefully in order to keep him healthier for the rest of the season since he was worn out at the end of the season since he admitted that himself. With the depth the Sox have among the players playing the field it's not an ideal situation for quite a few of the players to get as many AB's as they would like. WE may see Eloy rested in the same way after he fouled a ball off his ankle and Vaughn will start in LF.

SO has Vaughn not started a game in the field since he hurt himself diving in RF ? I don't think he has . Is it so terrible that TLR is taking his time giving Vaughn extra time to return to the field. Perhaps we see him in LF today with Eloy out.
