QUOTE (Jack Parkman @ Apr 16, 2018 -> 11:53 PM) Yeah we can kiss any chance of Machado or Harper goodbye. That’s never happening anyway. Manny is a Yankee. Harper will be elsewhere.

QUOTE (fathom @ Apr 16, 2018 -> 11:52 PM) Too early to talk to Mets about Welington? It's not like Manny is signing here anyways Exactly. Smith and Narvaez weren’t awful.

Uh Ricky, your team sucks.

Predict it now- fans on the field tomorrow night.

Sox are playing like it was hookers and blow all weekend.

Saw a shot of the park an hour ago. It was sunny. Radar still has some cells moving south toward Oakland. We’ll see. Still going to be windy and cold.

Looks like Cordell got hurt on a defensive play

I just think it’s a bad year. Early on, you want to load up on division games because there’s more opportunities to make them up. Outside the division, sure, try to play in domes and warmer places. There’s just way too much freaking out over a freak year.

Is it ok to hope Zavala is our future championship catcher?

Lopez vs Mengden Hail storm this morning, rain until tonight, real feel at first pitch low 40s

Eight 4-team divisions would never work in baseball. Four 8-team divisions could work, but I’d rather not see geographical realignment. The leagues are special and teams in the same market should remain in separate leagues.

The Sox obviously didn’t want to give up June 4th as an off day.

Today’s game hasn’t been called, and don’t expect it will...but it’s been hailing in Oakland this morning. Crazy weather.

I don't want to get in a big back and forth about expansion, but 32 teams would suck. 28 is perfect 30 is ok 32 is the most watered down crap Why would any fan of a current team want more competition? You're luck if you get one championship in 30 years. I know! Let's make it 32, sand have more s***ty pitchers, and fewer stars per team!

Sox land in San Francisco at 6:15 central time. It will be cool and rainy there.

Add the Angels-Royals. That's 21. Angels have to go back to KC on June 25th.

If the rest of the games get played today, 20 out of 241 games will have been postponed (8.3%). Bad year. Historic.

If you're interested to see when they get off the ground, they're scheduled to get out at 1:40. https://flightaware.com/live/flight/UAL2503 Edit: pushed back to 2:13 Edit: now 1:25, they may actually get out of there!

QUOTE (Lip Man 1 @ Apr 14, 2018 -> 07:52 PM) I give the Twins credit they were not going to force fans and players to attempt to work through this weather. Kudos to them, unlike some other teams. Even Maddon of the Cubs in his postgame today came out and categorically said they should have never played the game at Wrigley Saturday. Two biggest differences- it was good enough to get the game in, and it was against a team not coming back to town. The Sox are going back to Minnesota twice and it is a blizzard. I have no doubt if Chicago weather was good tomorrow they would have played two tomorrow. As far as beefs with the Twins, they should have called off all three games Thursday night and let the Sox fly home or out to Phoenix to workout at Camelback a couple days before going to Oakland.

One other thing they could possibly do to avoid two doubleheaders is move the 9/27 Tigers-Twins game to 9/24, and play the Sox on the 27th.

QUOTE (fathom @ Apr 14, 2018 -> 06:56 PM) Kopech's changeup is not good Was just about to say it would have been cool to see the last batter see a 2-2 change up. He got the out, but he’s not a finished product.

QUOTE (BigHurt3515 @ Apr 14, 2018 -> 06:09 PM) Why would they ever do 3 double headers in one series? They will spread them out Open date June 4th. 6/4 (2) 6/5 6/6 (2) 6/7

QUOTE (Richie @ Apr 14, 2018 -> 05:00 PM) This series is OVA... Sunday- PPD No makeup date. Probably could exclude Thursday now. Nothing like a 6-game series in June. Should be fun.

QUOTE (KyYlE23 @ Apr 14, 2018 -> 02:35 PM) Not a good day for our friend Quintana No takseys backseys
