Hate when that happens, I kept all these stubs inside my baseball card albums for years and found them a while back, again in the Mom's basement. Thankfully she's been good about not tossing any of my childhood stuff, tons of Star Wars, WWF and Starting Lineup figures down there in a bin somewhere.

Hahaha, I also remember being at the MJ first pitch/retirement game and driving home laying down in the back seat of our red Ford Escort station wagon when the news came on the radio and I began silently balling my eyes out in the hopes my Dad didn’t hear me crying over it. Found the tix.

Have a few distinct memories from that day, we sat near the Yankees bullpen and my Dad was yelling down at their pitching coach (Billy Connors) by first name trying to acquire a ball for me, my brain couldn't comprehend that my Dad just knew his name so I thought they knew each other and couldn't understand why Billy was ignoring him. The other is my Dad explaining to me that what we just saw was likely never going to happen again. Think I actually still have the ticket stub somewhere around here.

My 6 year old self was at this game, still have the bat giveaway from the game in my Mom's basement.

Anderson + Kelley/Dalquist for Verdugo and a year of Bogaerts, who says no?

the second Jason said “cue the closing music” this baby was ovah

There are many folks still fooled by Nick Madrigal, many of them inhabit this very board.

Excited to get home from work, crack a beer and re-watch on the Angels broadcast. Nothing better to me than hearing other booths fawn over Cease and Kopech.

Def, he just needs to be able to control the stuff and it doesn't matter.

The problem is he does show it on fastballs, looked a little better today but it's still creeping above the glove a hair.

Liam in the Southside uni and black cleats is ?

Jo Adell been our best player today.

Really bummed Vaughn has had to sit 3 straight right when he was getting hot.

So then you're suggesting multiple-time all-stars, a former MVP, silver sluggers, etc., just all forgot how to hit? I don't buy that.

So when a team goes from 6th most pitches seen per AB to 4th least pitches seen per AB year over year it's entirely on the players? I don't buy it.

I'll take the stats over whatever the guy trying to save his own ass has to say all day.

Didn't he say the exact opposite to this last year and up til spring training this year? I'll have to go find the quotes. But I specifically remember him getting on Yoan last year for being too patient and wanted him to attack more on borderline pitches.

When hitting approach drastically alters year over year for an entire team, I'll go ahead and blame the guy in charge of hitting approach.

Sox are currently dead last in walks and OBP after finishing 4th and 3rd in those categories last year. Clearly Menechino felt the Sox were too patient last year and wants them to be more aggressive on pitches in the zone early in the count. He and anybody involved with this YoY change needs to be fired yesterday.

idk it’s clear as day when you look for it, brings it up over the top of the mitt on heaters so if the batter sees ball a heater is coming and vice versa

he’s still tipping

Yoan ripped a single for Charlotte today, was also caught stealing and committed an error and was pinch hit for, anybody know why he was pulled? Planned per Helms

when it rains it pours! LFG!!!
