  1. Shocking. Tatis, Jr., was supposedly one of the main reasons, too. Of course, their famous dugout falling out must have been papered over by a truckload of $100 bills. For 2024, Xander Bogaerts was going to move over to third with Tatis returning to the INF at SS or 2B as the contingency plan...or with Kim potentially sliding back over from 2B returning to SS where he played almost exclusively last year. Also, wasn't a huge fan of Soto last year...he walked a lot but below average defensively. Finally,let the Ohtani Sweepstakes officially begin.
  2. Irresponsible. Unsustainable. Not financially prudent. That only leaves Ohtani and Soto.
  3. https://nypost.com/2023/01/19/bill-walton-ready-for-intergalactic-alternate-nba-broadcast/ Walton to replace Stone, lol? "We’ve got the NBA intergalactic platform,” Walton told The Post. “We’ve got the world’s greatest basketball players. We’ve got the business. We’ve got the entertainment. We’ve got the sports world. We’ve got the celebration of life and health and all good things here. We have fantastic guests. I’m the luckiest guy in the world. We are set for blastoff and the volcanic eruption on Monday night Jan. 23. Seven o’clock Pacific time, be there. Miss this at your own peril. You’ve been suitably warned. I’m fired up."
  4. Anyone have a spare $10 million to?buy Mookie Betts' LA house? https://www.yahoo.com/news/dodgers-star-mookie-betts-lists-170000454.html
  5. Unfortunately Stoney...the Guardians are perfectly set up for the new style of baseball that's going to emerge because they've already perfected it.
  6. https://sports.yahoo.com/arizona-state-stuns-no-7-arizona-with-dramatic-half-court-buzzer-beater-215753000.html Has to be seen to be believed. Bubble implications reverberate across America.
  7. Shades of Gordon Beckham... "Red Sox-Braves game ends after pitch clock violation called for final out. Saturday's Red Sox-Braves spring training game ended with an automatic third strike called on Atlanta batter Cal Conley for not getting set in the box before the pitch clock hit eight seconds." What's going to be the new terminology for this? Walk off doesn't quite work.
  8. Well, just like Sox fans feel like umps are always out to get them, Hummel 85-90% is seemingly on the side of Iowa opponents. He's fine, but Bardo has always been much more complimentary. Also, pretty confident Jackson Merrill vs. Colson Montgomery as the next great SS in baseball will be a very legit discussion by July. And this one hurt...watching Jose Abreu in an Astros' jersey. Just wiped out 33% of Ron813's schtick. https://www.mlb.com/video/abreu-s-first-spring-training-ab?cp=MIXED&p=0&q=PlayerId %3D [547989] Order By Timestamp DESC
  9. I now have my own third person verb, wow...that's almost as good as one of Benetti's delayed drum roll music and tv jokes from the 80s and 90s, with even late 70's disco thrown in to appease Stone Pony. Well, today it was Rage Against the Machine.
  10. Trending! It's actually nice to hear Stone/Benetti/Our Chuck again and not Beckham. And, if Benetti was instead assigned to work on ESPN with Robbie Hummel in IC...no comeback.
  11. So bleary eyed at 555 am after staying up all night from college bb addiction...read this as Meatball Roni, the SF Treat.
  12. He always made me think of Jeremy Reed for some reason due to the over hype and coming from a non-traditional baseball state. JR Birthday Party today...one year closer to the end of regime change.
  13. RON DeSantis, your anti-woke, CRT-inspired/AP African American history hatin' namesake.
  14. Their cheerleaders are better. Search Rakuten Monkeys cheer team...would result in a 15% boost in Sox attendance but numerous annoyed wives and gf's lol. The answer today is the Iowa Hawkeyes, lol.
  15. Have to get off to a fast start to rebuild the fan interest. .500ish first couple of months and tepid attendance means the focus is on trading guys like Anderson, Giolito, Moncada, Grandal and Lynn. Still no idea what we're going to get out of Graveman and Lopez at the back end of the pen. Hoping for a hyper competitive 2008ish season minus the Quentin injury late.
