So you can still have a guy play behind 2nd? I have no idea what the rules are now.

I believe they have to stay on the dirt and can't be past 2B.

Live lines. GTFO.

Who woulda predicted Nicky Lopez would be batting .125?

Just call the fucking game and spare the idiot fans that showed up today the misery...

The scout that recommended him, at over slot iirc, in the 2nd round, should be shitcanned.

Go to Baseball Reference. Look at the Sox 2nd round picks the last 50, yes, 50 years. He’s a HOFer on that list.

it's def not advantage hitter imo. very hard to hit in cold rain.

Sox aren't coming back. They might as well save the players from getting hurt out there.

And deny them the opportunity to buy a $15 milkshake?

I grew up with a dad that refused to ever leave a game early. I would have left awhile ago.

this team has no team speed among other things. unhitch the trailer.

Maldonado swung as hard as he could and it went to short CF...

I want a line on when Maldonado records his first hit... It might be May.

I've sat through some April games in the 30s, but it was dry. No way in hell I'm sitting out there on a day like this.

When Stassi is ready, they should just release MM.

Or that 7 of the line up today would have an average under .200!

Ankin Law has moved on from TA.

But the meaning of his message still holds true.  How many games does a manager have to lose consecutively to start the season to get fired, when he already should’ve been fired?

Evidently it was an April fools prank?
