629 OPS last 30 days. 410 OPS last 15 days. 678 OPS on the year. Same old below replacement Andrew Vaughn. Brewers caught a little lightning in a bottle but if they keep trotting him out there it will cost them at some point I'd imagine.

9-11 GETZ IT DONE

jesus pedro on the mound apparently for the twins.

Does he have a fall guy?

Vegas is too good man. 49.5 was a sucker bet for the general public to take the under imo. It's very fucking hard to lose more than 110 games, despite how easy the Sox made it look last year. Even the Rockies with one of the worst RD of all time have a 1/3 or so shot to win >49.

Frank Thomas is one of the 25 or so greatest hitters of all time and a top 50 type all time player. Comparing him to anybody else in the world is going to be a tough ask. Colson has 2.3 bWAR so far. That is really good for a 22nd overall pick. Check out the overall results so far from that first round, he's near the top with a lot of busts so far. https://www.baseball-reference.com/draft/index.fcgi?year_ID=2021&draft_round=1&draft_type=junreg&query_type=year_round

In the words of a classic mad dog rant, up in minny-sota, pounding the twinks!

I don’t say this often but Sosa is a fan favorite or should be and trading him would piss me off on a subjective fandom level.

John’s call on the Colson HR was brutal

Another finger in the eye of the fan base.

on chess.com?

I get both your points, which are different obviously. I just can't understand how people that GET PAID TO EVALUATE ATHLETES kept harping on "oh he's a 3B". Bro it took me one fucking game watching him at SS to see he easily passes the eye test. Like wtf? And watching him more and more it's obvious dude is a fine MLB SS until he ages out, maybe in 5-6 years.

So years ago, when I was still a youth, I started a fire someone on the sox .com website. I think it was RV. Firerobinventura.com. I pointed the site to steer traffic to Soxtalk thinking sure why not they won't mind the traffic. I was quickly told in so many words to shut that crap down, at least the link here. I took it a little personal at the time but now I just realize it's their site, they can do whatever they want. That extends to the mods. It might be fair, but hey, that's how it goes when you're working out of rented real estate, as most of us are here.

Nice to see Teel and Quero in the lineup again. The way Teel is hitting he should be playing every day rest of the way. Quero can play 5 times a week as well.

I think some team will offer him two years and he'll walk. But if he wants to come back 10 million for a year seems fair. Someone has to eat some innings.

JR:

lol this bullpen bro.

Very nice Taylor.

Good lord, enough with the fucking flares.

Vargas doing what he does, miss hittable fastballs early count.

crazy all fans know this but only some realize now why DIPS and strikeouts are so important.

He s%*# himself after that 98mph running cheese in his grill.

ah, can't be that shitty of one, he still wasn't ready. bury one he's out.
