Losing was a lot more fun when you thought they could get a high pick.

Just for the record, I hate this extra innings bullshit. At least allow one normal inning before you go to this garbage.

It's important to know and identify the Bust Bros. Here is a helpful guide: Bash Bros: Bust Bros:

Shoemake looks smooth as f*** at SS. Strong arm, good movements.

Maeda vs Soroka What do the Sox have in common with a teenage boy: Still trying to get to 2nd base.

He doesn’t look great, but “questioning” him is clearly not the same as declaring he is washed 10 minutes into his first start of the season. God damn I hate hot take culture.

No I saw someone say something stupid about how a short sample size shouldn't be used and used an even smaller sample size to say it. Then you scream obscenity at me like I'm the bad guy when I show u how stupid you are. You wanna s%*# on me being positive from game to game or s%*# on your team in the game thread go ahead but I'll call out idiocy , impatience and immaturity any time I want to.

Oddly enough, the Sox have yet to have a runner on 2nd base this season.

It seems painfully obvious that Getz will need to take Maldonado out Old Yeller style at some point and likely before the All Star break. I wanted to believe that there was some part of Martin’s game that was still there like “pitcher handling” but not sure that even matters when the dude looks like Kung Fu Panda after a week long dumpling bender. Hopefully Lee gets a shot while Stassi and can give Pedro a compelling reason to use his bestie Maldonado as little as possible.

Shewmake already tied with last years SS in HR's

I am a Deivi Garcia enjoyer.

Extra inning rule still hands down the dumbest thing implemented in the sport.

Did Schiffren just say he's never had a hotdog at the ballpark? Wtf?

Vaughn has made two great plays. Gold Glove campaign begins today. if he can't hit he might as well do something.

imagine thinking in september that we'd all rather be seeing korey lee here

Trying to get his PbP guy to actually participate in the broadcast.

This team is just so pathetic. Can’t believe anyone actually pays to go to the games.

This is complete bullshit and it’s incredibly annoying and arrogant that you continue to make these claims. There is literally nothing worse than the board crusader who fights the good fight against theoretical comments never actually said. You’re 100% welcome to have a different opinion than the majority of the board without constantly needing to fabricate others’ viewpoints in some bizarre attempt at belittling the rest of us.

If Soroka stays healthy, they have a great trade chip in July.

The good news is they scored some runs The bad news is the bullpen gave up the lead which I'm sure we will be seeing many, many times this year and the Sox again fail to do the little things to advance runners and bring them home. Nothing has changed in that regard from last season. The 10th inning today was a classic example. Don't stop now boys keep embarrassing yourselves!

160 more games for the Bust Brothers

These guys suck. Nice trade for Fletcher.

Sox probably win that if Pedro doesn’t pitch his worst reliever in the 7th against the heart of their order. Another amazing game for him.

Getz telling all his cronies, hey it’s only 2 losses by 1 run!

If you have the ability, go back and listen to how much dead air there is in today's broadcast. That space is what the color guy is supposed to fill. Instead we get "Steve, you were a minimum 4 chains guy when you played, right?" "Depends" This is was Jason was always amusing himself with goofy jokes, because the other guy in the booth isn't doing his job.

Man I can not wait until Eloy and Moncada are gone.

Well at least Robert is the runner in the 10th.

The Mets threw behind Rhys Hoskins today for that slide yesterday...after he went 3-4 with a HR and 4 rbis.

Moncada and Eloy must go, it’s not working.

Eloy you suck buddy, there is NOTHING more disappointing than how much of a bust he became. I thought he was a no doubt 35+ homer .300 AVG guy.

These in-game parlay reports are a sign of the pending apocalypse.

This is the first of the three CPS free ticket giveaways. Wonder how many thousand they gave out per game. Regardless, it's a solid crowd and hope many people who typically don't have a chance to attend a ballgame enjoy their time at the park.

Saturday seems like a good day for Leasure.

We’re due for a breakout player from another organization. Why not him.

Gamethreads are for in the moment reactions, I can’t stand when people come in hours later and try to s%*# on posts from earlier in the game.

That'll be Jay Cuda's post tomorrow.

I swear in his head he just says "f*** it I'm doing it" way too often.

Robert on pace for 162 Homer's and 324 rbi.

On top of the results, great ABs from Luis today. Saw a ton of pitches and battled to stay alive.

So he is in midseason form.

Hopefully Shewmake plays well enough to save us from having to watch DeJong

Maldonado is the worst framer I’ve ever seen

Playing the infieled in with zero outs in the first is a decision.

She’s lying.

Now now, we can’t go expecting Pedro to use actual data when making the lineup now can we?

There is little to no proven science on strengthening tendons and ligaments. You can strengthen the surrounding muscle tissue, and possibly some of the connective tissue adjacent to the bone and muscle, but not the structures themselves. The force put on an elbow throwing 98 mph heaters and 90 mph sliders is what is causing injuries, not "coddling". FFS we have technology now that can measure these forces and we know how destructive they can be on the human arms and shoulders. The average MLB fastball in 2002, hardly even that long ago in MLB terms, was 89 mph. It's now almost 94mph. You think that might have something to do with injuries to pitchers?
