Ozzie for Manager

My fiance' and I are heading to Fenway next year for a White Sox series with another couple who are Red Sox fans. Going to make the trip from North Carolina. I went about 20 years ago, I was at a wedding up there and it was the day Ted WIlliams died. Interesting day to be at Fenway, we had the worst seats in the house in the last row of the lower level of right field behind a big post in our sight line. It was still a lot of fun. Hope to have better seats this time.

I consider myself a Homer, an Optimist. But this post is delusional.

I was really hoping to see who would end up with a lower average. I didn't think anyone could challenge Crapa. But Noda was like, " Hold my beer"

Pitching around noda

The Rockies are the 2024 six. But just a bit worse

Get him out. Why go to 2nd

Leasure always an adventure

Afraid to pitch to Rojas i see

Crazy that Amaya is hitting .400 @ Charlotte and hit his 3rd HR today. Rather have him than Crapa

Rojas a beast

Love a shutdown inning after getting 3 runs

It also helps that at this time all but 2 AL teams are within 5 games of the wild card and we are 1 of them. In the NL there are 5. So there might be a lot of teams not selling this year. I wonder how many other pitchers there are out the on the market. Keller and Faulter from the pirates. Cabrera and Alcantara from Marlins. But Alcantara would be selling real low. Maybe the twins look to sell off Pablo Lopez or Ryan. I don't think there are that many decent SPs that will be out there. Supply and demand

Would love am insurance run

My fiance says the same thing. I try to explain why we need to. She keeps saying we trade everyone who is remotely good.

Houser having a Maddux like game

I wouldn't mind giving Houser a 2 year deal if we didn't have so many you guys expected to come up next year. He is really good. Could be a real innings eater to save the young guys and. Should get a decent return if he keeps it up. Maybe someone pulls the trigger this week a few weeks early.

It wasn't a terrible throw. Wasn't good either. Think Vargas couldn't find it

Can anyone really be mad seeing Colson instead of Crapa

Get it right. It's Crapa

Vinny had a big game last night. 1-3 and threw a inning of relief. Vinny now has thrown 3 innings this year. Becoming quite the 2 way threat. That big hit raised his average from .101 to .110 on the year. Odds are he will finish the year above the .100 line but I am sure it will be close. He is a career .122 hitter. Give credit to him for having basically no baseball offensive skills but still pulling in 761K in salary. Only in America. I salute you Vinny Crapa.

To put that in perspective the lowest single seating WAR for a position player was Jerry roster at -4.0

Crapa at a -.9 owar on the year in 89 abs. Give him 500 abs he could be a -5

You don't get a name like Crapa by being a good hitter

You can't win with a 9th batter and leadoff hitter hitting 11 for 102

My god he is awful. Get him out. Even the outs are rockets
